Same here. Let us just survive 2012 first. Some dental work perhaps.

My plan is to stop buying toys and pay down some of my mortgage and maybe pay into some low risk bonds.

I'll let you know how long that lasts.

But I still want a sub and reverso.

I hope to get our proposed covered parking gazebo approved by the city historic preservation council... so I can keep my toy in the garage but also shelter my daily driver.

That's all I want at the moment!

A 14060 I can keep! The first one Nancy and I bought as a gift for her son on completion of his second consecutive Ironman Triathlon within curfew time. The second one I'd had for a month and ended up selling it to a member of our club to give to her husband as a 10th wedding anniversary gift. I sent that one to Rolex Canada for case and bracelet refinish so it would look as close to new as possible when she gave it to him.

The next one's for ME!!!
