A FTL lightship run by a friendly AI, so I can explore the stars. With a contingent of robot soldiers, in case I run into trouble.

I’ve been having crazy dreams about having a long, prehensile penis. Works great in my dreams, but I would guess that women would run screaming in real life.

As mentioned in my other thread, I’d be more than happy with £150 so I can go abroad for the first time with my gf. ☹

Ooo, lots of good ones here, many that I would co-opt in a second. Additonal wishes?

I want a clean, legible, complete copy of everything ever written, a house big enough to store it in properly, and the ability to natively read, write, and speak every language (so I could read what was written).

And I’d like to be able to know everything there is to know about any topic I want to know about, and understand it, remember it all, and not go crazy in the process.

$10,000,000 tax free and a trip to England.  
Become an expert programmer in all computer programming languages, including obsolete ones.  
The ability to imitate any voice I hear.

Actually, instead the $10,000,000, Regallag\_The\_Axe’s wallet would be better, so I’ll go with that.

Okay. Now I need to know the reason you say this. 😃

BTW, **Lobsang** , what would you do with said pea?

I would like a harem of leather-clad women torture and tease me every time I fantasize about it.

And then have a five-minute orgasm.

And then have some really great chocolate.

I would like to find a hundred dollar bill on each and every daily walk I take for the rest of my life.

Gee, I didn’t think that far ahead. I just madly wanted a pea.

I guess I’d make a little hat for it and put it in a glass safe.

Wouldn’t it be weird if we lived next door to each other and met via the Dope!

Hmm for things like this I like to go with wishes that are at least possible in present day.

A two week cruise of my choice once a year.

A modest lottery win or other windfall that would give me enough money to live very nicely (say $100K/yr US) on basic investments while I spend my life becoming more physically fit and painfully over educated.

To learn to fly an airplane or helicopter, and have access to one for occasional weekend getaways for fuel and a little extra.

To have the gift of making someone do what I want just by thinking about it 😃  
Hordes of screaming teenage girls who would do anything for me that I want(hey I’ve worked in media…sometimes when we’re traveling with pop stars it’s like that.It’s just never for me…)  
Meanwhile,for your selfish wishes e-mail Iceland and if you’re lucky they might come true.I am the new Jimmy Saville 😃

Well come on down! I can’t speak for **Sanibel\_Man** , but I know tons of folks in Lee County would love for you to visit and come out to Bowmans Beach on Sanibel. Bring roofing materials.

What TARDIS? I ain’t seen no TARDIS. Hey, is that a Dalek over there?
