Alan turns twelve next week, and his list of birthday present requests is revealing. He would be happy with a plastic light-saber but would also like an iPod Touch. He would have fun with his own ripstick, but a personal GPS would be nice, too. He also asked to spend a week at Grandma's house, which to him is a lot like Kubla Kahn's pleasure palace, but specified that he wants his brothers to come, too!
Not too long ago, he asked if he could "grow his hair out". Do you think he wants to look like a rock star or Luke Skywalker from Episode 4?

That's hysterical. Maybe he wants a mullet like Obi-Wan in Attack of the Clones.
