    This was the point of this thread to get away from our everyday bickering laugh alittle. Throw some fantasy thoughts together for only alittle while. They must really have something stuck somewhere. Geeez, Lightin Up Francis!

    I can honestly say that I would work to give the vast majority of it - >90% away to charities. I would likely pay off my current house and probably just go back to college or get into teaching.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    I don't really get the 5 hour thing so mine is a week. I would close the biz for a week and go to Hawaii as a family.
    I would arrange for a trusted dog/house sitter to come stay here for all 6 and they would have unlimited treats and assorted grilled meats during our absence. They would have as many chew bones as they want and lots of petting.
    I would rent a little beach house for each of us in Hawaii. One for my daughter, one for my son and one for my hubby and I a short boardwalk from each other.
    We would go see waterfalls, enjoy an endless black sky with the most stars ever, a volcano, a rain forest, a little snow on a mountain. We would drink pretty colorful drinks at tiki bars and eat seafood. We would wear lais and get sun tanned and laugh a lot.
    I would listen to Pearl Jam in the dark alone late at night while the waves lapped up on a black sand beach.
    Then I guess I would come home and be poor again but still rich in the stuff that matters.

    It costs about 25 million to book a ride on a Russian rocket to the international space station. If I had 88 billion, I would totally do that.

    Hey I was playing along untill Starfall had to say what he said.
    Well what the hell did you think was going to happen when he said that ?
    What If I would have said " That I wanted to buy up all the other networks and replace them with stations like Fox news ? What if I would have said" that I would buy up all the abortion clinics and close them down. That would have probably started a riot on here. You get my point.
    For what it's worth I apologize. :oops:

    Was Starfall: A) Talking shit about you, or B) Answering the question of the thread?

    (Answer: B)

    Edit to add: I cannot believe you actually just replied with: "But...but.... HE STARTED IT!! :cry: " :roll:

    Don't be too hard on them, scb. It was quite obvious that I pointed a .44 Magnum to their heads and forced them to respond to my posts.

  • Well it's obvious that you know what buttons to push and I love how scb didn't answer the question I asked when what if I had said.........

    Because we all know the answer don't we.

    You give yourself way too much credit if you think that I give a hoot about which buttons of yours to push.

    But it's nice to know you guys think of me so much so that you *have* to respond to a post of mine that had nothing to do with you personally. My reputation is cemented. :lol:

    You don't think I know that ? All you leftist Progressives are the same. You only care about your self. Your pompous remarks proove it.

    I gave this thread some thought.. here's what I think. I'd buy as many nuclear weapons as possible and detonate them at key areas which would alter climate to set forth human extinction. Finally rid this planet of the pest of humanity in a Lex Luther type scenario. I figure a few at the polar ice caps, rain forests and other key locals which would not only set forth nuclear holocaust, it would ensure the planet unlivable for mankind. Adios humanity..mostly cause we've lost ours. :twisted:

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    Exactly - it's always ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME with this bunch. I remember when it used to be a WE society, not a ME society.
    Still, you have to admit, this whole right wing meme of "I got mine, fuck you" is quite telling. :lol:
