A recorded deed for the house that has only my name on it, and not the bank’s name.
An ATM card and PIN for Warren Buffett’s checking account would be nice as well.

A round trip plane ticket to Chicago.
And then the motel bill for two or three weeks.
That’s it. I’d die a happy man.
Since I’ve only heard of it here and I’ve not yet gotten around to picking up a copy, “Guns, Germs and Steel” would be nice.
I want my father back you son of a bitch!
Ummmmm…
shuts mouth tightly
Never mind.
You win
I’d like my very own OED, thank you.
I wouldn’t want anything for myself (except, well, see ). Build my friend Happy Rhodes a new home studio and then sponsor her so that she can quit her day job and do nothing but make music. Sponsor a world-wide tour while you’re at it, ok?
Seriously, if I won the lottery, that’s what I’d do. Other than going to see movies, and buying DVDs, books and CDs, I’m not a material person. I don’t need or want cars, houses, boats, jewelry or fancy clothes. The only thing I’d use money for is to pay bills, travel a bit, and be Happy Rhodes’s platonic, no-strings-attached** sugar mama.
*I’d have to go with her, of course, as a…um, personal assistant, yeah, personal assistant. And my husband too, he’s her, uh, official videographer!
**well, maybe first-listen promos, that’d be good.
Thank you for thinking of me! That’s so sweet! I’d prefer a surprise. [sub]A 2007 Corvette[/sub] But really, just the thought warms my heart. [sub]Please don’t forget the Corvette.[/sub]
Someone after my own heart! Except I’m aiming for the long end; I’d like a Canon EF 600mm F/4 IS lens, with 1.4x and 2x teleconverters to match, and a tripod that can support the weight of that beast. I don’t want to be greedy and ask for an EOS 1D Mark III as well, so I won’t.
I wouldn’t mind my student loans paid off, either, come to think of it. Sigh. I don’t know how I’m going to manage that without lottery assistance. cough
A house. Yes, I’m greedy. Cash would also be fine.
I’ll be greedy if you don’t mind. I’d like a tax deductible reciept to the tune of $500,000 for a donation to medical research. Ok really greedy make it $1,000,000. Thanks.
bwahaha – I’ll go low-key, these two would rather play with rocks and sticks than all the fancy-ass toys I’ve so carefully selected.
How about – a decent haircut! One each! My efforts with their little rounded scissors are pretty lame.
Right now, what I’d really, really like would be a puppy. One that won’t grow too large. And money for dog food and vet bills.
Failing that, the OED sounds good.
Y’know, I’ve had my eye on one of these for awhile… http://www.elvish.org/gwaith/movie/anduril.jpg
Thanks!
keep the money. I’ll be one of the few people who won’t care you won. Our relationship will be exactly the same.
My name’s Blank, btw, Unintentionally Blank.
You can buy me a banana split, with a cherry on every scoop.
Hey! To use that, don’t you have to be the heir of…
[sub]nevermind[/sub]
Lesse. You could pay of my Sallie May loans (before the govenment comes and breaks my kneecaps)… And my medical bills.
And I’d like $10000 to buy my way into England (yes you can buy a visa if you come with cash in hand…10,000 investment in the UK economy will get you in).
And as I’ve mentioned I want an elephant, and a polar bear and some meerkats.
Ta very much.
A job for my husband that pays him a decent salary and that he enjoys and is good at.
You don’t have to hire him yourself; just a little money under the table to get somebody to take a good look at him and see all his fine qualities (intelligence, work ethic, levelheaded) instead of just sticking his resume in the round file with all the rest.
You know, I almost asked for a job. That would have been quite selfish of me; I can get another job. But if you could set up a fund to pay for my kid’s college; something that wouldn’t point so terribly to the fact that their old man was a failure; and was bullied, beaten and humiliated in the process.
Perhaps to one of those expensive schools, where they’ll learn all the guile and deception and political posturing they’ll needed to succeed ( to conquer and rule over those still left with principles, honor and ethics). If I but had one wish for each of them, I’d pray Og they never end up like me.
