I wish someone would invent a machine that would take everything I say and turn it into a witty, action packed, emotionally charged story. I wish that the person who invented this machine would suddenly take ill and decide that they need to leave this machine in their Will. This person would be a dear friend of my closest neighbor, who finds writing to be a bore and would want nothing more than to hand over this machine to the first person walking. Upon meeting my neighbor and asking him how he feels regarding the humidity this summer, he will then proceed to tell me that the humidity sucks, which is why he has purchased a new A.C, replacing the old one, since it no longer worked. Due to all of the appliances in his home, he will proceed to discuss his distaste for his new contraption and offer it to me. I will take it with pleasure

I would also like the person with the Money for Life ticket to give it to me. I would use it to do good. Promise. After I buy shoes.
