If you could have three wishes from a genie, what would they be?

1. The unoriginal "lots of money" wish. Money can't buy happiness, but it sure can make life easier. i could clear my debts and those of the people around me, get out of Florida, buy a place to live, buy a newer car, make my zombie movie, travel a lot... That'd be sweet.

2. Guaranteed health (both physical and mental) for myself, my family, and my friends. Just one less thing to worry about, ya know? Plus i'd be free of my stupid pollen allergy and ridiculously high levels of anxiety, woo!

3. The ability to absorb information and knowledge by having cables hooked up to the back of my head, a la Ghost in the Shell. Let's say one day i wanted to learn to speak Mandarin. All i'd have to do is hook up the cables, and bam, done. i love to learn, and i'd still prefer to do some things the old-fashioned way, but this would be nice when i get stuck on concepts that i don't get right away... 

You've found the fabled pot o' gold.  How will you spend it?

1. Pay off debts. Student loans, credit cards, whatever.

2. New computer. Upgrade all software to current versions.

3. Another camera. And some lights.

4. Go to Japan finally.

5. Buy a nice house that isn't in Florida.
