......To live in a country that gets besides themselves because one of their athletes won a bronze metal. I recall an athlete going CRAZY on the podium after he won a bronze metal. That is AWESOME!!!
I don't know...just a thought.

Apparently, what I'd really like is revealed monthly in the pages of the women's magazines displayed at supermarket checkouts.
It's only been the same thing since about age 15....
It amuses me that the same basic article can be written every month, in scores of mag titles.
I mean, the answer is a simple 7-letter compound word -- do you really need a full article? is it really such a big mystery? I also like the ones headlined 'what TODAY'S men want in bed" -- as if basic male anatomy has suddenly changed, or as if that thing had just been discovered....
If I were the editor, I'd edit the article down to just that one word.... (No need for any further such articles!)
Sorry -- am I off topic here? I found the thread title a wee bit suggestive....
Anyway, sex is better than sports, and is good exercise too! Just look at the muscles on my right... -- (continued on Page 243)

Not the pics, NS -- the ARTICLES!
Blushing husband (without a leg to stand on) to wife: "I didn't buy it for the pictures -- there are some really good articles in there..."
uh huh

Sadly, you're just as likely to be judged on performance though & have no chance of getting a gold medal...

^It should be pointed out that most of us don't have a chance of getting a gold medal in sports either.

You know what I´d really like? An ever flavor gum!
but then again I don´t even like gum... so...
You know what I´d really like? Michael Bay quieting film making
but the b*****d is so greedy I doubt he ever will, and stupid people keep on watching his movies... including myself!
You know what I´d really like? To stop watching Michael Bay´s movies! They wont get any better...
but then again The Rock is acceptable...
...oh sorry, I seem to topic myself off the conversation

I'd love an invention that made it so that hot drinks stay hot, without any aid, and cold drinks stay cold, without the aid of ice or anything.
That'd please me.
Also, I'd love to win a gold metal for quickest three-fingered typist in the world, because I know I'd win.
For those unaware, which I expect is many here, my hands look like this:
LEFT HAND:
RIGHT HAND:
My hands are beastly.

Dude, that's awesome.
My girlfriend has some deformities, and her fingers are sort of fused together, and they never go past the first knuckle, and yet she's an insanely fast typer. She types way faster than me, and I've got all 10 of mine.
She's also a killer violinist. I'm jealous.
You know what I'd really like now? Less than 10 fingers.
