I'd like to orbit the earth, suborbital would be ok I guess but I think I can wait for an orbital flight, or maybe I'll just do both. I should be able to do it in ~15 yrs I hope, at least suborbital, and I will do it barring some sort of health problem preventing me.

I'll admit I'm not doing well financially, but are you are that you need a LOT of equipment such as $$$ oars, a trailer, safety gear, wax, etc?

If one ain't thinking a bit about dropping $515 on a toy or thinking damn hard before dropping $4200 on a toy then I think one ought to be doing alot more thinking. Once the thinking done and one decides it is worth it then have fun but to claim it isn't extravagent?

A new car. I'll be a poor college student for the next 4 years, so hopefully after that I'll be able to get the car I want.

Btw, the car I want is a Mazda 3.

A computer with processing power equal to that of Blue Gene L. I want to simulate my own ecosystems and evolve my own creatures and some such stuff.

I want to get my eyes fixed (Lasik or whatever.) And we'll probably start building our next house by then.
