::Monday Poll::
Happy August, ladies!
What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime?
What is your dream job?
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? (Same rules as Aladdin - no wishing for extra wishes! And they need to be selfish wishes - none of this world peace business. 
)
Re: ::Monday Poll::
What do you think has been the greatest investion in your lifetime? DVR. Or Press and Seal Saran Wrap.
What is your dream job? Being a stay at home mom and maybe owning a bakery.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? (Same rules as Aladdin - no wishing for extra wishes!) That migraines didn't exist, that my family all live long and happy lives, and I had the powers of Samantha on Bewitched for a month (to work around the "no more wishes" rule, but it wouldn't change me as a person since it would only be a month. Clearly, I have thought about this before.)

What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? I'd say the internet, but I think that was really created before I was born. Maybe cell phones that don't have to be carried in a bag???
What is your dream job? Being a therapeutic riding instructor if money were not an obstacle.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? 1. I want to win $10 million or heck I'd even take $1 million just to be able to pay off our debt, help our families, and not have to worry about bills as much. It would be like starting over again with a clean slate financially. 2. I want a whole new wardrobe picked out for me by a professional. I would love to have someone just come in and throw out my clothes and start over with me. 3. I want a tummy tuck and some lipo after I'm done having children.
What is your dream job? Working in athletics compliance (what I do), the only change would be working on campus instead of the national office!
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? All of our student loans and house debt would be gone; DH and I live long healthy lives and that we had a vacation home in Hawaii!What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? I guess the internet?
What is your dream job? To work for SGK, travel to all of the 3-day walks and also work remotely during the year so I could be a stay at home mom, thats not too much to ask, right?
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? (Same rules as Aladdin - no wishing for extra wishes!) To go on a second honeymoon, to go on a all expense paid shopping spree in NY, I don't know charter a plane and take everyone here to Napa or somewhere fun for a week???

I looked it up. While the basis for the internet was invented in the 50s when they developed computers, the WWW and HTTP language was developed in the 90s, so I think that counts!
2012 Reading Challenge
What do you think has been the greatest investion in your lifetime? I'm going to interpret this loosely and say the tools developed that led to the discovery of the human genome sequence.
What is your dream job? College prof.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? (Same rules as Aladdin - no wishing for extra wishes!) Pay off all debt, retirement fund, beach (or lake) house.
2012 Reading Challenge
What do you think has been the greatest investion in your lifetime? I'm going with the WWW/internet/whatever nerds would define that as!
What is your dream job? I'm not sure, but it involves me working from home 50% of the time.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? (Same rules as Aladdin - no wishing for extra wishes!) Pay off all debt, have a healthy investment account that produces a nice dividend for fun money each year (I'm thinking like $20k in dividends....very nice vacation + no worries about buying anything ever, annually), and a calorie free dessert wand.
This.is.brilliant.

What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? hmm. I think it's a tie between DVR and internet. Not really sure what I'd do without either of them.
What is your dream job? stay at home mom
If you could have three wishes, what would they be?
1. long healthy lives for me and my family and loved ones
2. win the lottery (a big jackpot too, I want a multi-million dollar payout) so that we can travel and basically be able to do whatever we want.
3. to meet Ellen
What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? The internet. Although that was probably before my lifetime!
What is your dream job? I wish I knew...right now, to be a mom :-)
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? (Same rules as Aladdin - no wishing for extra wishes! And they need to be selfish wishes - none of this world peace business.
) I would wish for a healthy baby in October. I would wish for K's job to continue to be successful and fulfilling for him (this is also selfish as it directly impacts our lifestyle). I would wish to deliver this baby and be miraculously a size ten with no weight issues. And no stretch marks. hah.
What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? I guess the interwebs.
What is your dream job? I did some research about genetic counseling because DH is adopted and I think that would be a really cool job. Being able to study people's genetic family history and figure out what testing they would needs, etc. I love genetics and Punnett Squares and all that.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be?
1) Health for my family (including phantom baby/ies)
2) Winning the lotto (millions) to pay off our SLs, house, and debt/expenses of our immediate families, and full college fund(s) for phantom baby/ies.
3) Live in Australia for a while, and use some of the lotto money to fly people out of visit us.
What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? Probably the revolution of the internet. Pretty sure it existed before I was born but surely not like it is now!
What is your dream job? If I could actually make a carreer out of it, a full time gymnastics coach.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? To always have enough money, to be able to travel anywhere around the world instantly (no more ridiculously long flights!) just like in Harry Potter, and to have an immune system that's super powerful so I don't get sick.
What do you think has been the greatest invention in your lifetime? DVR or some of the new, green technologies
What is your dream job? I'd love to be a college student forever (not necessarily live like on, though). I love learning new things and taking classes.
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? A new job with more challenge and more money. An add-on to our house that is a home gym. A year-round garden in my backyard that I do not have to take care of.
