Read The Monkey's Paw, http://gaslight.mtroyal.ab.ca/mnkyspaw.htm. Then, contemplate the old adage: "Be careful of what you wish for because you might get it."

No, it was my ex-wife who got everything she wanted. Actually, I wouldn't mind being able to hypnotize people--although, it would be tempting to make certain people do things they wouldn't normally do (in the privacy of my own house, of course!)

Listen to the tuba!? :shock: :D
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Walls are paper thin in this highrise. They don't have a choice but to hear me play. I just had a next door neighbor move away. Gee, I wonder if the tubas had something to do with it.

No, I was thinking of something that has nothing to do with tubas. Or music...

I'd pick the power to pick up any musical instrument of any kind and play it at a virtuoso level by ear for as many hours as I wanted to with never a clam and never a need to practice.

Of course, to keep the universe in balance I'd still probably not be able to make a living at it. :)

Yeah, I want to turn invisible so I can steal these cheap Vietnamese bicycles and sell them on eBay for several times more than they're worth!



You believe that, right?
