Granted. At 20 you know that middle age sucks, oil conglomerates will rule the world, and purple puce and cantaloupe will be among the hot color trends for spring 2008. Comforting, no?
I wish I would win an Academy Award (or "Oscar") next year! I'm Ready! I've been practicing my speech for years and think it's as good as it's gonna get!

Hello reality...leave a message after the beep.

Granted. Award speech time limits have decreased once again, and you now have exactly 2.5 seconds to thank your spouse, your mother, your best friend, your producer, your next door neighbor, your first grade teacher...
I wish my friend wasn't busy and could come with me to Florida during spring break.

(With a couple cups of starbuck's in me...no problemo!)
Granted. She comes and borrows all your clothes (and gets sick on them), snores like a chain saw going through concrete, and happens to be very gassy at night. Enjoy yourself!
I wish I could have a spring break.

Granted, a spring in your mattress breaks through and stabs you in the rear. This causes you to leap out of bed. You land awkwardly on your feet and break both ankles.
I wish I could have lunch with an interesting dinner companion.

The softball season started April 1st, didn't you get the memo?
Oh and there's a spider on your shoulder.
I wish Brian K Vaughn would write a new book that I'd enjoy as much as I enjoyed Y:The Last Man, and that it would not cost an exorbitant amount, would be published monthly, would have artwork that didn't suck and ... ummm not be encased in an impenetrable shield of Lucite.

Granted. Z:The Very Last Man is amazing, cheap, beautiful and arrives every month encased in a very easy to penetrate shield of...ummm steaming monkey turds.
I wish that the upper peninsula of Michigan would secede from the Union, rename itself Uppervania, and make me it's king.

Granted. Princess Anne divorces Timothy Laurence to join you at your side as the (official) Queen of Uppervania. Condolezza Rice announces that peace has been achieved in the Middle East through relocation of the Palestinian homeland in Uppervania. Oh yeah, and lake Superior is flooding.
I wish Waid and Kitson would create a limited Legion series that was as good as we all hoped threeboot LSH would be back in 2004.

Granted. Sadly, DC took a pass on the story and it was pitched to Scholastic. But hey, they accepted it and after a little tweaking it will be released as Timmy Turtle and the Legion of Super-Smart Reading Kids featuring Barky the Scholastic Wonder Schnauzer. Look for it at a bookmobile near you.
I wish the board hadn't gone haywire right after Lad Boy posted those explicit photos.(hmmm, coincidence?)

Granted! Unfortunately the presence of those photos made LW so popular that not only the server, but the entire Internet collapsed.
I wish when I mentioned the Legion of Super-Heroes to non-fans they knew I wasn't talking about the Justice League or the Super Friends.

Granted. And they now acknowledge the distinction with a long and whiny "eeeeeeeewww" each and every time you mention the Legion.
I wish that Rockhopper Lad would win 100 million dollars and that he'd be very generous about sharing it with those of his fellow Legion Worlders whose user names begin with the letter R , but that he'd be very, very stingy about sharing it with those whose user names begin with, oh let's say, an L.

Granted. Such affairs are handled by my Japanese assistant who has difficulty differentiating those two sounds. He sends 20 million dollars to "Rad Boy" and 64 cents to "Lam Boy".
I wish I really did have that much money to share with my friends (regardless of what letter their names begin with ).
