A fun topic- What if you found a genie

I thought it would make a fun topic. Say you rubbed an old oil lamp and a dude pops out and say's "you have three wishes!", what would they be?

For me, number one would be to be immune to all ailments. This way I die of old age and I don't have to worry about some random cancer or disease.

Number two would be to have the ability to play guitar and sing at the same time. I can do both now reasonably well, just not at the same time. It's always bothered me that I can't do both.

For number three, I sat staring at the screen for about ten minutes. I can't decide if I want a super power or to have certain people I know lose the ability to speak. I guess I would keep three in reserve for emergencies. ;)

So what would you're three wishes be?

I'd wish for her.

I don't think you can die of "old age".  It's various organ failures and such.  Everyone dies from the same ultimate cause - lack of oxygen to the brain

1) True wisdom and compassion for all mankind.

2) The end of all poverty and hunger.

3) The end of all wars and hatred.

Yea, I know, it will take one powerful genie and or one huge miracle to accomplish this list.  ::)

(1) I wish I could play my Hammond Organ with the dexterity of Jimmy Smith.
(2) I wish (after 76 years of trying) that I could finally read sheet music.
(3) I wish I had a bigger Organ.

Paul... ;)... ;)...!

P.S. I may wish to reverse the priority, now that the weather is getting colder.... ::)...!

1. A money tree (not greedy, $20 leaves will do just fine).

2. A decent doctor (got all sorts of professionals that are great except my dr.)

3. Yep, #3.

You shouldn't go "tinkling" on other peoples musical instruments, Fozzer. It's just rude. >:(

#1 A variable IQ switch so I could call up some brain power when I need it, and dial it down when talking to workmates.
#2 An unlimited credit card with monthly statements that keep telling me the bill is on them and my money is no good here.
#3 A guarantee to live untill I don't want to. (disease free)

I wish this stain would come off my shirt.

I wish my dog would stop chewing on my shoe laces.

I wish someone would make me a cup of coffee.

;D

One single F-14D, along with the entire inventory of weaponry, spare parts, necessary hardware, GSE, and manuals available in 1999.

At least 20% of the world's (or at least America's) population to return to its elemental state

One dollar for every Google search anyone makes, starting right now.
