Hovan's Wish List

Main Gift:
- Call of Duty 3 (there are many of these games, but I am looking at the one that came out in November 2011 - a few weeks ago)
- Breathable water proof pants for biking to work (waterproof outside and fleecy inside would be nice) - size: XL
- Noise canceling over the ear headphones/ear protection (whenever I take the float plane or the helijet the little ear plugs give me a headache. I need something that has strong noise canceling that I can listen to music or just drown out noise. It needs to go over my ears since the earbuds fall out (I know I know, I have weird shaped ears) and it needs to fold up to a reasonable size so I can slip it into my briefcase. I don't want to be walking into meetings in Vancouver with a large set of earphones in my hand)
- Good mulit-purpose ladder

Stocking Stuffers:
- Asterix and Obelix Comics (I will have to look at which ones I have, but there are quite a few I don't)
-Multi-head screwdriver: the kind where you can just push up the different heads instead of taking them out (minimizes losing the heads)
- Daily Dilbert Calendar
- Uno (card game)
- Butane lighter (the one that seems like a mini flame thrower - Christine got me an awesome Transformers one on our trip that I couldn't take with me)
