1. Cliven Bundy's cattle would be nice for starters

Free beef for the Lounge cafeteria!

[2naSalit]

24. After roaming

the sage desert for untold length of time, that's got to be equivalent to shoe leather on the hoof at this point.

[NightWatcher]

2. I am due beer and travel money.

[madinmaryland]

29. ^^^ THREAD WINNER ^^^

[LiberalEsto]

3. I want to ban H1-B visas and other visas that cost American citizens their jobs

I want insurance to cover acupuncture for my arthritis

I want single payer healthcare for all

I want my kids' student loans (which we pay) to be partially forgiven or at least the interest rates reduced and frozen

I want a decent used Toyota Prius in good condition

I want Citizens United repealed

and most of all

I want to see Bernie Sanders become our president for the next 8 years, with a Congress that will work for the American people, not corporations

Oh, and I want someone to invent great-tasting calorie-free and healthful chocolate.
or else.

[dixiegrrrrl]

5. I want calories to scream when we burn them during exercise......

[JudyM]

6. Lol, that would be excellent.

[pokerfan]

4. I really can't top Steve Martin's Holiday wishes

[BlueJazz]

7. I demand that I be made a God. Not a God to be worshiped but one to have the power to do anything.

Your children are sick and dying? They shall be healed.
The Earth is changing for the worst.? Nope..not any more.

In short, I want to be the God that people deserve...not like that other phony bastard.

I think that's enough.

[Xipe Totec]

A loaf of bread,
a jug of wine,

alone in a meadow.

[NV Whino]

14. I want the 50s back

But with iPhones and Netflix.

[dixiegrrrrl]

15. Man, what I could have done with a computer/internet in the 70's.

Could have gotten 10x as much done with the right tools.

[rurallib]

16. One order of whirled peas coming up

[fizzgig]

17. a pile of corgi puppies

20 years younger and TWO Golden Retrievers..
and some Corgis, ok.....some of them, too....

[fizzgig]

19. i am in no way, shape or form a dog person

but the way i feel about corgi puppies is the way other women my age feel about babies....

[dixiegrrrrl]

21. I get puppy hunger every spring, like clockwork.

Serious puppy hunger.
Sometimes my friend the Animal Control Officer shows up with a puppy to foster, I have no trouble returning it after a month or 2.

[noamnety]

20. I demand to know what's in that thing at my store!

It's kinda like hot dogs, but longer and a slightly different color. There's 6 in there if I remember right. It is shrink wrapped and in the butcher aisle. The only sticker/label on it just says "1.00."

[dixiegrrrrl]

22. How OLD is it????

I've seen some things like that that were there for months.

[noamnety]

23. There's no way to tell.

There's no date. No other label. Just a styrofoam tray, the sausage-hot dog things, plastic wrap, and a dollar sticker. Although I guess the store itself has only been open a few months, so it can't be years old.

[LynneSin]

25. Led Zeppelin reunion tour with front row seats for me please

That's all for my demands.

[mainstreetonce]

26. The second week of every month

Should have July weather.

That would help.

[dixiegrrrrl]

27. Actually, we HAVE been having that down here.

Weird as hell.
We have had a pattern all winter of temps in the 40's days/ 30's nights, for a few days, then a warm up all the way to the70's
( Dec. 26th it was 77 degrees!!)
then another cool down for a few days, followed by 70's again for a couple days.

in fact it is 71 right now.
which will be followed by a severe thunderstorms tomorrow night, and back to a cool down.

[mainstreetonce]

28. We have also had some unusually warm days in the NE

But I want July sunshine one week a month.
