What amazed me was that for a mere $268.00 at that site, you can get a plaque with some Bronzed fake dog poop on it.

Bronzed dog poop.

Truly this is an amazing country.

Quote from: "AlohaDawg"
I'd rent a bunch of houses on the beach all at once and fly 100 friends and family in for a huge weeklong party. I'd pay Hank Jr and Kid Rock to host the party and do a couple of short sets. 25 male and female models will be mingling with the crowd. A trapeze. Monkeys juggling chainsaws.

I'm so there.

i've had so many scenarios in my mind play themselves out over the years, the only single linking factor between them was weeping.

1. Take entire family on a kickass vacation, pay off debts of all family and close friends, buy neat presents for whomever we want.
2. Buy a big 'ol plot of land out in boonies about 30-45 minutes from a pleasant metropolitan area.  Plot must have a potable water supply, a creek would be nice, some caves would be a plus.
3. Build a big 'ol geodesic dome house.  House will be off-grid.  Anyone else in family who cares to build a house on the homestead is welcome, as long as we can't see their house from ours.
4. Have babies 'till I can't anymore.

My fantasies are considerably less Heinlein and more cheesesteak. I probably shouldn't fantasize when I'm hungry.

I would probably continue living as I do now, yeah, except with more freedom to buy books and eat out. I don't really feel the need to have an extravagant lifestyle; living comfortably and knowing that one is free from any monetary want is really quite enough.

That said, I would buy enough pinball machines to own my own miniature arcade. Maybe also a foosball table if I go really crazy.

2a. Watch as metro area rapidly expands and in 10 years "the boonies" are now home to countless yuppies and families of 6 kids under 9.
2b. Sell plot of land for several hundred thousand more than it was bought for.
2c. Move another 45 minutes away, repeat.

I think I'd buy my depressed best friend a muscle car and take a cross-country trip with him.  Then I'd have wacky theme parties every Friday night.  And eat really strange meats.

Can't argue with that, yo.

Actually, I probably would help my folks out financially, if only so they'd be certain of being able to travel near-constantly once they retire. (I was sort of the reason their initial wanderlust stopped, so I should pay them back, really.)

For the party I mentioned earlier, Ted Nugent is in charge of the grill.

Also, I would endow a scholarship at my HS and build a house on the big Island, maybe around Volcano or down toward Punaluu.

That was a plan of mine before I even found Achewood. Perhaps why I feel such an affinity (or want to) with Ray. My affinity however always seems to fall to Beef.

Oh, I forgot: a beach house in Paia on Maui.  Just a little one.

2d. Move to the moon.

I think I would move. And instead of going to concerts, I would ask bands to play for me on a regular basis and invite friends to see them as well. A lot of bands I like would be willing to play for a reasonable stipend, I think. I don't have a lot of favorite sites; many I go to are paid for by giant corporate monoliths. This one, though, I'd subsidize. I would buy many of Chris' future paintings, if there be such items.
