If you all don't stop talking about Journey (cringe), I'll start saying things like "Rush is over-rated" and "Who told that bloke from Pink Floyd he could play guitar".

Well, say what you want about Pink Floyd (cringe). As for pre keyboard Rush: Not overrated. With the keyboards: I don't even know who the hell those guys are.

If you were to do that, then you and certain members of the website would have to go your Separate Ways. Don't worry too much about that, though, because those folks that Someday, those who Love your antics Will Find You. They'll help you Break Those Chains That Bind You to the computer. In the end it'll all be ok, because You Know, rIgh Still Loves You. Ow. That was painful.

Journey was my favorite band when I was 12. I still dig their stuff in a nostalgic sort of way.

PS I  Dave Gilmour, though he's over-commercial these days (since reforming Floyd sans Waters, anyway). I'm a big Floyd fan, Animals being my favorite album.

1) Drive a big rig
If you ever make it out here to Oregon, Eugene area, look me up. My Uncle owns a fleet of these (including a drag racer). You're from Eugene? I'm 3 days into a 4 day drive for my permanent relocation to Eugene ;) Hope you have a place to live in mind already. Finding someplace to live isn't tough, but right now the housing market is outa sight for the income in this area (this is when all of you who live in Maryland and California laugh loudly). Welcome to the area and all that.

Welcome to the area and all that.  Ironically, that's exactly what I'm doing right now...looking for a plce to live! Things haven't been -too- bad price wise, but damn these houses are all pretty old.

I will probably never kill a drifter to get an erection and then write a song about it.
Life is just too short.

I'm glad your life is to short to include that, WAP. Quick point though, would the song be about the killing, or the erection, or a the whole combo?

My list: Get away with poisoning someone, with homemade poison derived from botanical toxins  Front a Zombies cover band. Or start a death-metal costume band that does Phil Collins covers. *Learn how to perform taxidermy *Learn how to throw knives like a ninja Donate a million dollars to that lady who pays addicts to get sterilized (and they always take the money) Join the black panthers *Host an exchange student *Open a bistro * = Hell, I might as well give that a shot. Stephen Zepp: Eugene is lame. Sorry, Mortriden, but you know it's true and prolly live there for UO, right? Unless you like hippies or agriculture, that is. But keep in mind that old houses aren't that bad unless you have mold allergies. We have lots of it in Oregon, and old houses are particularly rife with it.

*Host an exchange student
My family has done this on 3 seperate occasions over the year. It's beyond easy to get one, though I don't know how many foreign students are looking to go to Oregon.

I'm too young to really rule out the possibility that I'll do some stuff, but hey, here's my list:
Learn to play violin.
Learn to sword fight (fencing or just for show, it's all good).
Move to Ireland.
Own a house with secret passages and cool stuff like that.
And the one that will definitely never happen because it's a bad idea, horribly unsafe, and ridiculously expensive: have a tiger/lion/panther/other large predatory cat as a pet.
Yeah, I'm a nerd.

It doesn't have to be a castle for me. Just secret passages.

Just secret passages.
I'm all about secret passages around the house. They are drawn into almost every floor plan I've come up with so far (I'm hoping to start building my own house within the next few years). Turret tower, secret passages, tunnel to the garage, secret underground gaming room, library with bookshelf door, firefighter's pole, full bar. The necessities.

There's a secret passage in the house I'm in now. It's pretty simple. It runs from the office to one of the upstairs guest bedrooms via a hidden popout wall and a movable 4 foot bookshelf on wheels at the other. I freaked the hell out of one of my friends popping out of the wall while he was watching television. He almost fell over the coffee table jumping up in fright.

Here's your swordsman techniques.Also, my mother's family owned a leopard for awhile when she was a kid....but that was in the 60s and 70s, and her father was a crazy military contractor.

* Visit/live on the moon. Some whining maggot decided space travel was "too expensive." Grumbles. * Naval aviator career. I seriously wanted to fly off carriers when I was in junior high. Then I realized I was tempermentally unsuited for military service (not to mention a horror show of genetic imperfections). * Build the 4x space strategy MMG I first thought of in high school, before modern MMGs existed. * Start and sing in a shoegazer-goth band that performs covers of WWII big band and other older songs. Yes, seriously. Patsy Cline's "Walking After Midnight" doesn't strike you as goth? * Write a novel. * Purchase an WWII surplus submarine and live on it. * Visit Yamamoto Isoroku's crash site. * Purchase AC1 from its current owners and run it myself.
I'll take a pass on listing unfulfilled sexual fantasies, if no one minds...
