          Which one? There were two Erikas [at the same time] that I dated. I referred to them as Little Erika and Big Erika. Guess who had the hooters?

Space engines based on plasma/fusion materials not the current unusable for space exploration/mining chemical rockets. 3. New foods. 4. Will buy the old Privateer franchise and will create Privateer III super game hybrid between Privateer and Mass Effect. 5. Medical researches. 6. Extremely efficient and fast trains and catamaran passengers super ships. 7. Babes. 8. Babes. 9. Women. The last three are going to be a personal research projects – highly funded.

                                    Or some killer weed and you'd at least think you could see your name from space.

                                      Howard Hughes was crazy and wealthy and he was a recluse. He died a miserable man. I would never wish to be that wealthy. I only wish to have enough to live comfortably and enough to leave to my children.

                                      What's stopping you from leaving them now?

                                        I’ll spend every penny in research labs for: 0. More efficient nuclear reactors or even better Thorium reactors or fusion based such. 1. More efficient batteries. 2. Space engines based on plasma/fusion materials not the current unusable for space exploration/mining chemical rockets. 3. New foods. 4. Will buy the old Privateer franchise and will create Privateer III super game hybrid between Privateer and Mass Effect. 5. Medical researches. 6. Extremely efficient and fast trains and catamaran passengers super ships. 7. Babes. 8. Babes. 9. Women. The last three are going to be a personal research projects – highly funded.
