    Having lived in France before I know the plus and minus points. I think I'd be happiest living in a village very close to either the German or Belgian border so that I could get away when I felt the urge.

    Not if I'm drunk. I'll be more interested in the ladys:dance:

    Hmm, here's what I'd like to do.

    1 - Smack a Kita Kyushu driver in the face. They drive like shit and piss me off every day. It's amazing how the quality of driving can change from one city to another.

    2 - Collected every Saturn game ever made (849 so far so looking good)

    3 - Make an official cover to a game.

    4 - Show my son his baby DVDs when he's about 18 :lol:

    5 - Take part in a Rally driving either a Mitsubishi Evolution or Subaru Imprezza.

    Haha
    Thats cheating :lol: dont get me wrong its not that bad but some times it cant reallly get on your tits so to speak. Things like Monday nothing is open, Pubs which never really open and constant feeling of being an out sider. It worst here for me as I work for the big plane maker thus they assume I am stealing there jobs. Oh and the convoy of plane parts goes past my bed room window.

    Also I would like to meat a few more people of here so far I have met LeGit, Tach, Paulo and Retro. and on Thursday will meet Aim Bob. Poss Parris, Yakumo and BarcOde since they are my Fathers. :lol:

    Hard question!
    lets see....
    *being able to obtain all kind of undisclosed official documents about the N64
    *have a threesome (me + 2 sexy women)
    *travel all over the world
    *travel to MARS (this is a bit impossible but how fun would it be!!!)
    *have another threesome

    And i think i have it :p


    I would scratch this one - or keep it as the last one :p

    For my 25th I bought myself the biggest Lego set I could find, kept myself quite for a while.

    I would also like to add take pictures of a riot/police line and of a war zone.

    For a second I thought you meant one of these 32x prototypes ;p

    Travelling to Mars would be really fun and not really that impossible. Shouldn't take longer than 2 years one way. Give it a few decades and people will be travelling back and forth for a couple millions.

    Even if you are not that rich you can probably set up some sort of fund where you put money every month until you are like 70.

    Though somehow I think many people here wouldn't be able to keep money sitting on an account when there is so much dev/proto stuff left in the world to buy =)

    I drew up a "100 things to do before you die" list so long ago that it's not even stored in a txt file! I wish I could find it as I was only a mid teen at the time and I have no idea what I put.

    Skydive
    Bungee Jump in New Zealand
    Visit my Paternal sides family in New Zealand
    Hire the whole Millennium Eye in London for just my fiancée and I

    See, in the wild and up close, all the main types of Bear
    Go to New York City
    Go to Copenhagen
    Go to Paris
    Go to Okinawa
    Walk the Yamanote line (via streets of course)
    See Mew live
    See Oasis live again
    See the real line up of Guns n' Roses live again
    Have one each of all GB's GBA's & DS's
    Complete Nintendo Dev setup
    Win the lottery (easy way to help do all the above)

    I think that's enough for now.....

    >_< damn youre correct! This requires some other solution!

    Besides, when i get to mars when im 70, i think having a threesome would get somewhat difficult...

    Leave everything behind for a year or two, and just live and relax.
