What are those things you desire that you know will never be true? More specific than "win the lottery," what would you do with it that is uniquely your plan? Self-haters not allowed to talk about finding love in this thread.

For myself, I really want to hug Spirit and Opportunity. They were supposed to be going for three months. It's been four years. Those little robots that keep getting stuck and still come out okay surely deserve a hug.

"Big damn heroes, sir!"

I want a time machine so I can go back and just see things.  I want to see the library at Alexandria, I want to see the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, I want to see the Colossus at Rhoades and the eruption of Vesuvius and the battle at Thermopylae.  I want to put to rest at long last the debate of how they built the pyramids.  I want to go back and watch the launch of Apollo 11.  I want to watch the first volley at Agincourt.  I want to see the defeat of Harald Hardrada at Stamford Bridge.  I want to see the reaction of the first audience at the first showing of The Jazz Singer when Al Jolson said "Wait a minute, wait a minute.  You ain't heard nothin' yet!"

And the list goes on.  Oh, how it goes on.

I want my kneecaps to be replaced with hamburgers so that every time I trip and fall, I land on soft sweet (burger)buns and everybody sniffs the air and gets hungry.  I want ...

... well, that'll do me.

I make shiny things, you need them.

I want a castle built to my specifications, an eight sided star artillery fort styled outer fort surrounding a courtyard with a large round tower keep in the center, including all the amenities. It would be placed on a hilltop in someplace that's temperate but not too hot nor too cold. The valley below would have a variety of orchards and berry fields. I could survey my holdings and enjoy a peasant wench or two at my whim.

I've got to agree with TGU, a time machine would be totally sweet, except I would want to interfere some in addition to watching, especially with my own life.

Also, I've often wished that I could experience things from other perspectives.  I would like to know what it is like to be a cat, a bird, a ferret,  a woman, a serial killer, a saint, just about anything other than what I am I would like to experience.

I want to KNOW what sex feels like for a woman.  I want to feel the walls of my vagina stretch and contract as he thrusts.  I want to have this knowledge as a man so as to better please the women I marry.  I want to live on a yacht with a captain, a cook, a small maintainance crew, a maid or two, my wife, my girlfriend, and a blissful lack of anyone under the age of 18. My yacht would sail any where in the world in two days or less, and we could spend a weekend kayaking around the glaciers of northern Alaska, then spend Tuesday night at the Theatre in Sydney.

That. Times ten.

Instant, cheap, planet-wide teleportation would be really damn sweet, too.

I want a custom-built plug-in hybrid sex van. Airbrushed on the side: "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN" Ideally I will also have a pimp suit and a girlfriend who is okay with me wearing it while I tell her "get in That Damn Van, woman!"

Obviously, the key here is that it's a hybrid. If it's just another sex van, that's boring. We gotta bring these traditions to the modern era. So, there will also be a totally bitchin' entertainment rig in it. If I ever actually did any pimping, the clientele would receive sexing, Xboxing, or some mixture thereof based on their preference.
