ILL START

Id love to see this thread sky rocket

Penthouse in NYC

Aston Martin


the list is endless ill upate on occasion im just curious what other people want

When I read a case in law school about a rich man who was attacked outside of such a penthouse and almost mutilated, the idea of such a home fell from my list of "wants" or "needs", at least in NYC or the windy city. What is ironic is that great penthouses in those two cities border, or are directly in, terrible war zone neighborhoods.

I probably want to get through school, which is a condition I have with my State budget department, to get me a grant so I can start my own business with their required grant money for small business. Basically govt. stuff and rules and regs.

Other than that, I am happy to live in a safe place with safe water. I certainly don't ask for much in these recession times. I do plan to visit NYC and Chicago at least once in my life. I think CNN and Fox give extraordinarily bad and heinous new about those cities, and a few others, for ratings. The statistical abstract of the United States, however, does not show any positive trends towards a measurable reduction in crime in those two major U.S. cities.

2,000 light years from home
a really really good life story, something epic
then again, maybe I have it
it's one of those things that takes a while to have I guess
but I'd for sure rather have a good story than about anything else

I'd probably get myself killed with this thing but I've always wanted one.

I've always wondered if they wear the helmets strictly as a precaution or have actually needed it during practice because they wiped out and spun in circles on the ground! lol, that would be pretty funny to watch I think (as long as no one was seriously injured).

True happiness and relatively stress-free life is what I want at the moment. There are way too many issues (economics & politics + environment) at the moment.

At this very moment, I wouldn't mind:

and a trip to:

That would probably relieve a bit of stress! At this point in life I'd even take just the latter part, forget the Nikon.

Other than my Mac Pro, this is the only expensive material object I've ever wanted: a big, beautiful Steinway (about $100,000). Never wanted a fast, fancy car; never wanted a mansion; never wanted the things most guys seem to want.

I just want a big F#*%ing Steinway.

Oh boy, you know what turns me on :D

Are they really that expensive? I would of thought maybe $50,000 at the most!

Dude, you can get mauled and mutilated just about anywhere. On a boat, on a plane, on the sidewalk, in your car. In your current living dwelling. Even in College. Remember when Bundy went and broke into a sorority house at FSU, killing and raping them.

Shouldn't let it effect you much, because, really, it can happen anywhere.

The said person was cut into 1" inch squares in front of many witnesses, but it's a landmark case as are other bizzare NY cases such as re: Winship, State of New York, United States of America. But that can start another thread of at least 1,000 posts and I don't dare put that one up. But Google it...you will be shocked beyond belief.

But as per your comment, I know that. In most small towns, it will never happen. But there are medium sized cities like Oakland and Phoenix that have gruesome stories that match anything we have seen in Detroit, Chicago, and New York. Per captia some cities like Detroit and Washington DC have been more dangerous than NYC in some crimes on some years.

The trend towards events like the World Trade Center bombings and the Son of Sam do happen in more highly populated areas, but Oklahoma City is an example that type of bizzare crime, of such a heinous variety, that can hit a "non-major" US city.

It is nice to know that there are no less than 60,000 beat officers in NYC and surrounding burroughs. :)

The bass or the guitar would be cool, I admit, but I would have to get rid of one of my electrics to make room for it in my small house. Since I already have a set in neck electric, even though I am fiercely a bolt-on neck type of guy, I still don't need another electric guitar, but a bass can take me places a guitar never can. It doubles my musical universe.
