Not where I really want to be
Fun. Do we remember what that is? Here we go............

Ok, another silly time waster. Saw it on another message board, so I thought it would be nice addition here.

Write a wish.

The next person to reply grants your wish, but there's a consequence to it...

(S)he then writes another wish, which the next person corrupts.

Example:

1st person: I wish I had X-Ray Vision.

2nd person: Granted, but it only works in nursing homes.

I'll start.

I wish my car worked like a helicopter in traffic.

Granted; here's your chopper. Are you handy with a wrench?

I wish I had a 1962 Corvette.

I guess I used the wrong wish! In actuality, I was air crew when in the Marine Corps and survived a class A helicopter crash on the Asian side of Turkey in 1986 so I empathize with the idiot who crashed that one.

OK, back on track.

Your wish is granted. You now are the proud owner of a 1962 Corvette

Enjoy playing with your Hotwheels miniature Vette!
 
Your wish is granted Peach

Unfortunately since you did not specify what codes, they are complying with the codes they made up in their heads, not the ones we enforce.

I wish I was in a warmer climate!
 
Granted, Now go inside the sewer truck and fix the stopped up pump. Don't foreget to hold your breath. The pump is under 4000 lbs of crap!

I wish I could retire!
 
Granted. Unfortunately medicare and social security are bankrupt, and the Governor spent your pension building a wall to keep the snow out of Texas. You now stand curbside at a highway off-ramp with a cardboard sign reading "I have a God-given gift of code interpretation."

I wish I could sell my house.
 
TimNY,

Your wish is granted! Unfortunately, because of the economy, the value of it has tanked. You

will only be able to get 1/100th of it's original value, which [ sorry ] may mean , you will

now have to pay someone to purchase your house.

I wish I was more healthy, wealthy & wise!

You wish is granted, you were healthier, wealthier and wiser last year than you are now.

I wish I had a beer.
 
Granted: You have an infinite number of wishes but you cannot use them. You may only give them away....one at a time.

I wish that my power would come back on.

Your wish is granted but somehow your beer is different. That's it, it's warm, the year is 1776 and warm beer is the way it's enjoyed.

I wish for a simpler time where honor and personal responsibility were earned and respected.

I wish for whirled peas.
Wish granted! You've hit the ** DAILY DOUBLE **!! For there to be ' whirled peas ' means that Jesus has returned with a new Heaven and new Earth and you no longer have to visit this forum. You now have anew job taking care of the Kingdom. :D

Granted. Now your back looks like that of an ape.I wished I hadn't missed a 9' encroachment into a front yard setback on SFR footing inspection last week. (found out today)
Granted. The encroachment is 12 feet due to an error on the survey.

I wish I had a flying car.

Granted, you have a flying Yugo with a cylinder out that can only fly over Tehran.

I wish I could lose 100 pounds.
 
Granted...........but it is all off your lower half, you now look like a spider..........

I wish it was Friday at 5:00..........
 
Fatboy,

Your wish is granted, but there is now an emergency in your town that keeps you and all your inspectors busy until Monday at 8:00 am with no sleep.

I wish that money was no object and all I had to do each day is listen to good music, dance with pretty ladies, sip good bourbon, and eat good food.
