What do you want to see before you die?

Ritalin is an amphetamine. In adults it has the effects of any other amphetamine, increased heart rate etc but it has the opposite effect on kids before they hit puberty, dopes 'em out. Essentially you're both right.

Ephedrine is a much better over-the-counter soke substitute though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Pretty much what Soluzar said, I'd like to see our race as a whole treat the planet better. (As opposed to just moving on and screwing over another planet once this one is done)

Even if we can't reverse the damage already done thus far, I'd like to at least see some measures taken to prevent things from getting worse.

How ya doing, buddy?

I would really like to see Maccu Piccu and maybe Stone Henge. I'm 24, and have never had money to travel. I have been to so few places, I've only been out of the country once (twice if you count Mexico... but come on, it's attached). It makes me feel very inexperienced.

Most amazing jew boots

My greatest joy would be to never die

How ya doing, buddy?

I think before we start terraforming other planets, I'd want us to learn how to take care of the planet we got. Otherwise, a couple thousand years down the road, we'll have the same problem again.

I would like to have built at least one house on my own before I die.
I want to go camping with my dad one more time.

Thats about it really.

How ya doing, buddy?

I'd love to see a cure for cancer. I really would. People have been working on one for forever and while there have been advances, there's no cure. In all honesty, I don't think there ever will be one just because of the nature of the disease but one can dream, right?

FELIPE NO

I often wonder if some of you... things... were cut out for life in the first place.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I want to see a few NASCAR races, meet some race stars in person, among other things I would like to see the issues in Africa and population problems in Asia (India, China) get solved and see the world change from fossil fuels to something more sustaining.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I hate to be the selfish one here, but I don't usually have a lot of ambition, so I figure I'll indulge myself on the hypothetical. =)

1. I'd like to see Scotland before I die. It probably seems weird, but I've always felt like I'd like it there. I thrive in rainy/windblown weather, and the seaside atmosphere crossed with green hills makes me think it would be a nice place to get away to and simply relax. Of course, that's probably my idealized version of Scotland talking.

2. I'd also like to see myself in some measure of fame after having written a popular book/movie script or somesuch. Not necessarily the great American novel or anything, just something many people agree is good, or that helped them to realize something about their own lives.

3. Um....The Ring?

How ya doing, buddy?

I'd like to see the oil companies stop fucking with patents of inventions that will help the civilized world use more eco-friendly sources of energy. The world would have SO MUCH cleaner air if they didn't compete so hard for our doe for the last half century.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'd love to see someone being compassionate without expecting anything in return.

I also echo the sentiments about seeing Macchu Picchu. That would be incredible. Deep sea diving through a kelp forest would be pretty amazing as well.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
