Being that you are poor and everyone else you know of is in the same boat, feel free to put here the things, the unobtainable materialistic \*things \* that you really, really, really, really want. ---

Uhm… -blinks- What do I really really want? A fully-furnished house in Nova Scotia (Or any Martime province) , not too too far a drive from the beach. A car that runs and has a decent stereo… preferably new. Camping gear… the whole kit and caboodle everything needed for a good tenting trip to the lake. A house… hmm… maybe in BC for the winter. It’s cool enough that I’ll be comfy but warm enough that I’m not freezing my ass off in snow piled over my head. Or I might just settle for a harem of men… or even one really good man. ---

Donovan McNabb, Ricky Williams, Marvin Harrison, Adam Viniateri, and the Philly defense… Oh, oh, sorry. Not _that_ kind of fantasy. Alright, in that case, how about the cheerleading squads of the aforementioned players, all decked out in… Ah. Not that kind of fantasy either. Never mind. ---

I want a mixed arab/clyde mare, tack and someplace to keep her as my porch is just too small. I also want a bunny rabbit. Maybe a kitten, but it has to get along with the bunny. A match trigger set for my Gold Cup. Ethernet adapter for my PS/2 and SOCOM for my PS/2 ---

World peace. If I can’t have that, the winning lotto ticket for the next 25 million drawing. I would be happy with 10 million. 5 million would be nice. ---

A meaningful, fulfilling job. Failing that, a boxcar full of the finest chocolates the world has to offer will do. ---

An original(_not reprint_ ) copy of the first National Geographic magazine.NOt asll that many were printed of course, and of the few still around, they go for five figures or so. And I agree with \*\*dywr. \*\* A load of high quality chocolates would be very nice. And a kitchen I designed myself. All the books I ever wanted, in hardback, long lasting acid free paper. ---

A winning lottery ticket with a big enough payoff that I can be debt free, buy a home, have a nice little nest egg and kick a few bucks back to my family. A miraculous cure for autism so I can talk with my daughter. My Camaro fixed up, driveable and looking sharp. I’ll be happy with a pair of tap shoes and a PS2 though. ---
