To improve the human condition? Donate it to Heifer International. To improve my condition? Pay down student loans.

Hmm.. I have a couple of ideas and one of them involves lots and lots of solar panels.

That way, I could put whatever I was paying towards the electricity bill towards my other debts.



No no, wind generator farms!!

i would buy a bag of pot then find some scientists that are really smart..have them smoke the pot..

then when they get so high and to the point of getting really wild creative ideas i step in and say.
Lets make a time machine....


You'd ride a time machine built by people who were wasted?? :eek:

I see a serious flaw in your proposal. You'll probably end up with your butt in the Paleozoic and your brain in the Haight Ashbury in 1968. You'll have LSD flashbacks about trilobites for the rest of your life.

I can see it now, "HG Wells' 'The Time Machine'. Starring Christopher LLoyd."

Okie Doke.

I never said it was the perfect plan.
I may have to send my little brother through first.

I'm genuinely horrified by myself, having first read that as "facelights." :eek: ...
That one caused me to choke -- too funny.

Send me all your money and I'll see if I can prove that correct or not.
:D



I would probably take some and go on another vacation, then be good and use the rest to pay off the car or something like that.

$10,000 RL money hmm!

I'd immediately quadrillion it, by buying a 16m RL plot in the same neighbourhood as an SL spam merchant.

Then I'd buy LL with the money I extorted from him, and kick him out of SL :p

Maybe a tank of gas and bag of groceries. $10 grand doesn't go very far anymore.

$10,000,000 would be more like it. Could do some real good with that.

I like the way you think. Throw in an illegal poker game and a crate of bourbon and count me in.

10K?

Probably have to give a huge chunk of it to the IRS and then wonder why I spent so much time at whatever I did after I averaged out my time and found out I got paid 30 cents an hour after expenses.
