This is a lighthearted topic for everyone---believers and unbelievers alike.
​
Imagine that a wealthy Billionaire contacted Percy and informed him that everyone who is a regular member at EvC (lets say over a hundred posts)
will receive whatever gift(s) that they choose to receive within a budget per person of, say, $1000.00 each.
​
We can't take cash or gift cards, but anything else that we want will be paid for by our generous mystery Billionaire!
​
What is on your wish list?
​
As for me, I would ask for a new wardrobe of clothes, shoes, and a couple of nice suits. What about all of you?

I can't think of anything I want that I don't have.

My favourite gift is a book. I keep a running list on my computer in hopes that my wife will peek near my birthday or Christmas. Top of my list this year:
​
Big Bang - Simon Singh
Guns Germs and Steel - Jared Diamond
​
other than that... socks or a sweater

That would give me a nice getaway for week to Kenting Beach or Orchid Island or Green Island. I could stay in a hotel with a spa and do some serious luxuriating.
​
Yeah. Nice thought.
​
Thanks, Phat. Have a cool Yule.

A trip to the French Laundry for Zhimbo and me.
