Granted. We just lost six weeks of posts, RP's, and PM's again. No, the world won't end, but man, we're sick of this. Thanks a lot, Mister Wish-For-May.

I wish the World Cup weren't over.

Granted. The World Cup of Horseshoes is just getting underway. President Bush is expect to toss out the first horseshoe. Last year they had Dick Cheney do it but he ended up hitting a spectator in the head.

I wish the first paragraph I wrote this morning wasn't so awkward.

Granted. Now the whole manuscript is awkward and that first paragraph from this morning fits in perfectly.

I wish I had a ticker for how many days until I get a clue.

Granted, unfortunately it's a very long ticker and you get booted off AW because of it.

I wish I'd written in the third person not first person this morning, so I didn't have to go back and re-write it.

Granted. Trouble is, two weeks ago you wrote 10,000 words in first person accidentally, so you'll have to go fix those now.

I wish you could make pudding with soy milk.

Granted but the consistency is the problem not the soy

I wish growing older did not sometimes preclude growing wiser

I wish ignorance was not bliss

Granted. Here's your shovel, the cows are in that barn to your left :)

I wish I had a kiwi.

Granted, she's in your home and refuses to leave. Leading to your friend breaking up with you.

I wish life was a bit easier on us sometimes.

Granted, but it's easier because you're in a coma.
I wish I had internet at home so I could stop looking at this site at work all day.

Granted. But it's an igloo. How are those midwest summers?

I wish I could build an igloo.

You can - but putting in that central-heating system was probably a mistake.

I wish I could find something interesting in the fridge.

You can - unfortunately the haggis has been in there for several years and has grown legs. On the plus side, you'll be able to hire it out for the haggis hunting season.

I wish I could get hold of tins of haggis over here...

Granted, but it's via mail order and the sheep intestine is suspect. ( i think it's goat)

I wish I could visit Scotland (home of my grandparents)

Granted. But now we won't know where to stop mowing.

I wish all my evening chores were done.

Granted. But now you have all the time in the world to write your novel. It sells, becomes an instant best-seller and your heralded as a premiere new author. Awful isn't it? Since you deep down fear success.

I wish I knew what deja vu really was.

I wish I could stay at home all day today and write while the muse is lingering.

Granted. You get to stay at home with the muse . . . your muse happens to be a college frat boy dressed in a toga who plays Whitesnake on the stereo all day long and cleans out your fridge.

I wish I had a muse who looked like Nicole Kidman.
