1 - wishes that Punky keeps doing that belly dance...

well, ok - might get tiring after 10 or 15 years or so. Better think of something else.

1. Lasting world peace.
2. A healthy and happy life for me, my family and friends.
3. I'd keep the last one around for emergency purposes. Boring, but it's early in the morning...

If I had one wish that would be granted by the Magical Punky Genie, it would be that all the children to join hands and sing together in the spirit of harmony and peace. If I had two wishes that would be granted by the Magical Punky Genie, the first would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing in the spirit of harmony and peace. And the second would be for 30 million dollars a month to be given to me, tax-free in a Swiss bank account. You know, if I had three wishes that would be granted by the Magical Punky Genie, the first, of course, would be for all the children of the world to get together and sing, the second would be for the 30 million dollars every month to me, and the third would be for encompassing power over every living being in the entire universe. And if I had four wishes that would be granted by the Magical Punky Genie, the first would be the crap about the kids definitely, the second would be for the 30 million, the third would be for all the power, and the fourth would be to set aside one month each year to have an extended 31-day orgasm, to be brought out slowly by Rosanna Arquette and that model Paulina-somebody, I can't think of her name. Of course my lovely wife can come too and she's behind me one hundred percent here, I guarantee it. Wait a minute, maybe the sex thing should be the first wish, so if I made that the first wish, because it could all go boom tomorrow, then what do you got, y'know? No, no, the kids, the kids singing would be great, that would be nice. But wait a minute, who am I kidding? They're not going to be able to get all those kids together. I mean, the logistics of the thing is impossible, more trouble than it's worth! So -- we reorganize! Here we go. First, the sex thing. We go with that. Second, the money. No, we got with the power second, then the money. And then the kids. Oh wait, oh jeez, I forgot about revenge against my enemies! Okay, I need revenge against all my enemies, they should die like pigs in hell! That would be my fourth wish. And, of course, my fifth wish would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing together in the spirit of harmony and peace.

Three wishes, hmmm. And I assume you can't use the third wish to wish for three additional wishes. That always seems to end badly.

I'm also going to assume the Magical Punky Genie isn't one of those jerky spirits who, for instance, grants you wish for a million dollars by collecting letting you collect on the life insurance policy on your spouse, because that's just mean.

So . . .

Wish, the First:

A long and healthy life for me, my family and friends. Notice I didn't say happy. Figure you have to have a little sadness and angst, otherwise, what would you have to bitch and moan about to you old, healthy firends. Immortality is also an interesting option and I am tempted, but I think that wish would require alot more though and introspection.

Wish Secundum:

Irresistable skills of persuasion . . . that I can turn on and off at my leisure. I want to be able to convince anyone to see anything my way and to agree with me, regardless of how absurd. I think I could have alot of fun with Donald Trump and Paris Hilton with this wish. And it's probably easier than wishing fo infinite wealth, which you'd probably be stuck managing. With my powers of persuasion, I'd just get comped everywhere. Heck, maybe I could even bring about world peace.

Wish III:

The ability to pick-up and play any musical insturment and to read any music.

Now ask us what our specific superpower would be if we were to become a superhero. Or better yet, a Wonder Twin power.

See, that's just mean.

But on the brighter side Kafelani, if I get my wish, I'll have a talk with George Clooney for you.

Funny story (kind of) about how you have to be careful what you wish for ...

About a month ago I said to a friend "I want a fairy tale life!". Since I was asking the universe for stuff, I figured, why the hell not, right?

Today, I get this email ...

THE WORLD'S SHORTEST FAIRY TALE:

Once upon a time, a girl asked a guy "Will you marry me?" The guy said, "No" and the girl lived happily ever after and went shopping, dancing, drank martinis, always had a clean house, never had to cook, stayed skinny and watch whatever she wanted on tv.

THE END.

clearly the universe has a sense of humor.

I've always appreciated Stephen Sondheim's take on the faerie tale ending . . . especially when we learn the princes were raised to be "charming," not "sincere."

At least one of my wishes would be for a party for all of the people I have met here and at Dave B's blog. The others are boring

Live closer to my my second best friend (my wife being the best) he is in Calgary I am in Seattle

Never to have to worry about money, not necessarily lots of money, but to be sure I have a job to make what I make now and enough to live on when I am retired.

1) To have the body I had when I was 27. (original knees, lack of fat, all my teeth, etc.)

2) A permanent boost to my confidence so I can do all the things I want to do but don't believe I'm good/deserving/smart enough to do.

3) A pool party on the perfect Sunday afternoon, when the beer tastes right and no one gets sunburned and the snacks are exactly what you want/need. Where the daylight lasts for roughly 36 hours and the music is ideal for the mood. And anybody who wants to attend can attend and will find great conversation when they get there.

OK ... I'm totally asking myself for these three wishes ... because I'm the genie and I can do that!

1. I want to be able to fly.

2. I want all cakes, cookies, candy, baked goods, breads and other yummy carbs to be calorie free whenever I consume them!

3. I want to be able to sing beautifully.

The rest of what I desire I am able to get simply through my thoughts and effort, so I won't waste my wishes on them. :)

Nice, mad.

I know the "three more wishes" thing is futile so I wouldn't even go there.

1. That health & long life thing has always been my #1 wish, so I'm not copying you guys. Really.

2. Money. Enough so I don't have to worry about running out but can also give to my nieces and nephews and people I care about who need it.

3. What the heck. I was going to save one like Higgy but I'll go with George Clooney for Kaf.
