I'd wanna be a Q.... (yeah, I know...I'm betraying my Trekkie-ness...) But I'd want to be an independent Q...the Continuum is SUCH a drag....;)

to go back and get my pilot's license earlier in life (like 18) so i could be with a major airline right now doing what i love to do and get paid well for it!:D

Easy, but I need two wishes. One, the Replacements get together for a new tour, and two, my my Mom could come back from the dead and play with my dog.:p

Can't we all just get along? I guess that sounds a lot like World Peace. That's good, but I was thinking on a smaller person-to-person level. No prejudice, no misunderstandings, no manipulation ... ahhhhhhhhhhh

I'm with Miss World and Pete on this one - World Peace. Think of all the co-operation that would proliferate, the arms funding that could go on education/health. Wouldn't it be nice? [cue Beach Boys] .... :band: [/cue Beach Boys]

To die in my sleep like my grandfather...
Not screaming in abject horror like his passengers!:eek:

I'd wish to know everything in the universe from the beginning of time to the end of time with perfect recall ability. (This would include being able to speak every language as a native, play every musical instrument like a pro, know all martial arts as a master, be as though I'd read every book ever written, know how to make a time machine, know the secret to eternal youth, know who will win every sporting event, know when I will die, what people are thinking, know exactly how to keep idiots like GWB from wrecking America, how to build interstellar space ships and to communicate with alien cultures, etc.)

And here I thought you already knew all that. :D

you mean you wish you were God?

I didn't ask for any magical powers. I don't wish to be god, just to know everything that God knows (assuming that fictional character were a real entity).

I'd love to be able to communicate with everyone, be incredibly wealthy and youthful, and help the world go in a better direction. I can see how it could get boring but everything has its price and I'd be willing to pay it.

Who says I'm not now. My wife is 9,000 miles away from me. I am very depressed and lonely. The only difference is I'd be making a lot more money and be able to steer the world in a better direction.

I would like to be a fairy godmother so's I could grant everybody's wishes all of the time.

Always provided they behaved themselves. :biggrin:

That would suggest you actually have thought, which is far fetched at best. ;)

I don't think I'm god (or any other fictional character for that matter) and I don't think I know everything. But I can see it might seem like I know everything when you seem to know nothing. But don't worry, just because I'm smarter than you, doesn't mean I'm the smartest guy on earth. :D On the contrary if I barely had 3 digits in my IQ, I would still be much smarter than you.

would you believe that I sometimes wish to be like Cosmo in the Fairly-odd Parents?:3eye:

I would have to say
unlimited self-control
and all that that entails

like never blurting the wrong things
like never getting angry or mad
like letting the world know what i think
in the best ways i can find

all thats within reason, i want
all that reality gives
all the self control in the world
for all facets of myself.
