exercises you can do: a billion, but most commonly pushups, dips, chinups, and every variation on these. buying a pullup bar and a kettlebell will immediately open up your options immensely. seriously though, get a gym membership.
edit: i dont know what is up with all these p90x blowjobs people are giving out here. its not the magic pill or the final answer. its good for someone to do at home, but if you eat like a fatass and do p90x you're still going to be a fatass. not to mention p90x requires a decent level of fitness in the first place
This is great....thanks very much.

When you can can do a decent number of pushups and pullups, go to more advanced progressions - pushups with raised feet, diamond pushups, pike and tiger pushups and ulitmately, handstand pushups. You can also do weighted pullups pretty easily. A backpack with a dumbbell will work, or get a dip belt.
Do dips between 2 chairs or tables. When you can do 10, consider adding weight.
When you can do a resonable number of bodyweight squats, consider pistol squats. They are *hard*.
Add ab workouts - crunches, ab rollouts, dragon flags, etc. All can be done easily at home.
Finally, throw in GPP circuits - jumping jacks, grasshoppers, burpees, mountain climbers, man makers, etc.
There's so much you can do at home.
Noted. Some of these I have never heard of. I will have to look into them.
Thanks again everyone, great advice here.
