    Agreed! (Although I would go for The Minogues, The Girls from 'Bones' and Kate Beckinsale)

    When the holo-images are removed, would all the genuine, real-life bodily fluids remain? Or could they just send in a holographic Roomba to clear up?

      I have noticed that the majority of the wish list is either SEX or POWER. What is it with wishes?

            Hey, I was planning to use these items to fight evil for the good of all mankind! I would probably occasionally look into the future at the stock market and end up rich. That would probably lead me to landing a ton of hot women. At least my intentions were good...

              Anything in films or TV that could be made real, what three things would you have? for me it would be : 1) Tardis - Never be without a home. 2) Orac - Control the world. 3) Light Sabre - Just because!

                          The holo-deck. That's it - that's all I'd need. Just me, the Penelope Cruz triplets and the Salma Hayek twins. I'd be dead in a week, but what a way to go.

                          In a week? That's the most shameless form of misguided optimism I've seen in a while! Who are you kidding? You'd give up the ghost after the first night! But what a way to go! Have you seen "Bandidas"? Awesome scene in the movie that might inspire you! :)

                                > What is it with wishes? Hey I was planning on sharing time on the hollodeck with others here... and using my powers for good because I can be trusted with them. :) trust me! :) back in my AD&D days I was a dungeon master, one of the best in a very small town (which does not say too much). I loved handing out wishes until folks stopped using them. conservation of energy/mass told me that magic would take physical objects from the easiest source. If you wish for gold it comes from the nearest single source like a king or a dragon. one guy wished for a natural -10 armor class (think tank skin) I gave him a lizards body and scales. to me it was a challenge to see if I could outthink the players and give them side-affects while they attemted to phrase wishes to prevent side affects. it was all part of the game their creativity vs. mine. I know better than to make a real wish, but I can still joke about it. :)

                                        In a week? That's the most shameless form of misguided optimism I've seen in a while! Who are you kidding? You'd give up the ghost after the first night! But what a way to go! Have you seen "Bandidas"? Awesome scene in the movie that might inspire you! :)

                                        If it's the "I won't dishonour my profession" scene, then I know the one. What type of idiot would turn them down?
