today's suggestion isn't all that unusual. not entirely out of reach. heck, i bet if all you put your money together you'd find more than enough to afford it for me.
today's twbnth item #4 is a private box at Joe Louis Arena, home of the Stanley Cup champions, the Detroit Red Wings.

hello.
here's a new blog topic i'm starting basically for the sake of having something constant to blog about. i call it 'That Would Be Nice To Have'(twbnth for short). why the name, you ask?
