What Do I Want for My Birthday?

I don't like online subscriptions to things that I know I really won't use that much ... you may be turned on by the OED, Mari, but I haven't looked at my paper dictionary (next to my computer) in several years, based on the dust. I only very occasionally need to look up information regarding spelling or word usage, and google is more that sufficient when I need to be reinstructed regarding lay vs. lie. As cool as a subscription to the Rush Limbaugh website would be, I know I wouldn't consistently use it, even if I could listen to it at night.

Memory cards have merit ...

I told you I was difficult to buy for.
