Does your genie have power over life and death, **Gary “Wombat”**? Cause I wish every doper who lost someone could have that person/dog/kitty/horse/hamster/fish or reticulated giraffe back.

**Eve** once asked me to peel her a grape.

I would have, sure would.

She added a **lot** to **SDMB** and I miss her too.

I wish that **blinkie** would wake up one morning, miraculously cured and able to move perfectly well, and that he would enjoy every moment of his second chance. 🙂

**FloatyGimpy, Cat Whisperer, and Asimovian** , thank you all so much. I wish I had the words to tell you how touched I am that you thought of me. I was in the UK visiting Rick’s family, so I just saw this today.

My wish is for **jsgoddess** and **Asimovian** to be happy–preferably together. 🙂

That would be awesome. I have the luxury of time to figure out my next career move, but not everyone is as lucky as I am.

That’s a good one.

That’s a good one, too.

I would wish for **Broomstick** to find permanent, full-time, well-paying employment so she can get back to flying!

Or for **PapSett** to be adopted by some rich old people with lots of land and horses and a huge trust fund.

Aw man, me too! …and, if I could extend your wish, may I add that on that day, he and **Watcher of the Skies** could meet, shake hands and walk over to Gino’s for cheesesteaks and conversation?

So, your wish is for her to have an infinite amount of patience? Boy, you aim big. 😃

It’s a two parter. But I’d settle for either one:

1. I wish all other Dopers were at least as happy and satisfied as I am, or

2. I wish all other Dopers would join me in a united effort to eradicate cilantro from the face of the earth.

Whichever.
