1. I want a yard that keeps itself mowed, weeded, raked, fertilized, and watered without my interference.

2. I want a food with all the nutritional value of brussel sprouts or broccoli, but with a taste like ice cream.

3. I want a car that runs on non-biodegradables like styrefoam that emits only clean air and pure H2O.

4. I want an old tractor that won't cost me an arm and a leg to purchase, that I can restore to new condition for less than a dollar, and that will pull down tall oak trees, plow all day and all night on 50 cents worth of fuel, and will be worth a fortune--and have hundreds of people clamoring for it--when my grandkids need money for college.

5. I want a pickup truck that fits me as confortably as my favorite pair of shoes, will pull or haul any load that needs hauling, will run forever on next to no expense...and the neighbors DON'T think it's an eyesore.

6. I want a house where the light bulbs never burn out, the plumbing never clogs, the windows never break, the current never goes off, the appliances last forever, the closet space and the cabinet space are sufficient for every stage of my life, that never needs painting or roofing or gutters cleaned out.

OK, so I stole the idea from the guy who said he wanted Kim to let us talk about what we want...and I took it to an extreme. So, all jokes aside, now I'm gonna talk about what I REALLY want:

What I REALLY want is a life that's well-lived, with a healthy balance of work and play; where the family all gets along; where there's money for all we need, and enough of what we want; where my health is sufficently good to carry out my purpose here on earth; where I have a good relationship with my Creator, and He is satisfied that I've done my best when the final roll is called; and where, after I'm dead, I will have made enough of a good impression on someone that I'll be missed in a POSITIVE way...and that I will have set a good enough example that someone, somewhere, will want to follow.

Hey Buzzman

I liked the whole post, but the last paragraph
really says all there is to say.

Yep the last paragraph...

A perfect life, well everyone has a different idea of perfection, so it is a hard thing to find.

 Put me down for the same . . . in reply to Buzzman72, 10-07-2004 05:50:49  
I would like to mow grass, but it could be on a mower that never has dull blades and ALWAYS cuts level.

I like mowing grass.

I hate sharpening blades!

Good post Buzz
Mitch

Hi Kim , hope you're feeling better today . I myself enjoy the privilege I have to get & ask for help from knowledged tractor people on here . I especially appreciate the price . Being that I'm not forced to pay to view or comment , but you apparantly have to foot the expenses ; I want to thank you & encourage you to keep on trying . Some are never satiafied or show & express positive notes of appreciation . I was brought up in a time when I showed appreciation or got a whippin from Dad . Thanks Kim !! Ken C

You're posting this to a bunch of tractor lovers, hobbyists, farmers and ..... ..what did I leave out? You really need to be talking to some politicians; if you read/hear what some of them are promising, your requests should be a piece of cake..... .....

Paul, It may be more difficult to irritate others in the next life. Do second amendment rights exist in Heaven? There will be no NRA members since their lifetime memberships will have expired. I guess we'll have to sort the issues out down here while we still think they are important. Joe

Joe, Danged if I know the answer to that one, but I"m sure we agree on one issue "down here" and that is that U of M will win the "Little Brown Jug" this Sat. And you may be surprised to know that I hope that U of M is Minnesota and not Michigan. If my neighbors only knew.

Well you will get another chance Saturday because no one won last night.
Estimated at $215,000,000

Only problem is you will have 215,000,000 new friends and lost relatives you have not seen in 20 years.
