Ten on Tuesday

November 17, 2009 By Carole

web_Lobby Waterfall

Ten on Tuesday this week is 10 Things You Wish You Knew How To Do. I’m going with the over-the-top approach. I must still be high on Vegas fumes or something.

1. Grow money. My father always said it didn’t grow on trees. I’d sure like to prove him wrong.

2. Make Sarah Palin shut up. I can’t help but listen when she speaks (train wreck analogy) so I wish she would just. shut. up.

3. Make Carrie Prejean go away. Seriously, why is anyone paying any attention to this tool anymore?

4. Time travel. I’d love to go back in time and forward in time and travel around in our own time, too. And I’d like to do it all without having to deal with airport security and buses and planes and trams and everything else that makes traveling a pain in the ass.

5. Find a cure for cancer and all the other horrible ailments in the world. I know too many people who have suffered and died. And I know too many people who grieve because of it. I’d be very happy to put an end to all of this.

6. Establish world peace. Through knitting. We know our power and I bet we could actually do this.

7. End all forms of hypocrisy. I could go on and on about this. But I won’t.

8. Knit in my sleep. This would be multitasking at it’s finest.

9. Sing. Honestly, I can’t carry a tune in a bucket. And yet I’m the one who always knows all the words to songs. It’s a cruel twist of fate.

10. Solve all the world’s problems. Poverty – gone. Hunger – gone. War – gone.

It’s a nice list, don’t you think?

    A very nice list indeed.

  2. Jo-Ann says

    November 17, 2009 at 6:25 am

    Love it … and yeah, when you figure out #1, I’ll help with the fertilizer!!

  3. Estella says

    November 17, 2009 at 6:45 am

    Great list – love the knit in your sleep…I wish I could figure out how to knit and drive at the same time!

  4. jenny says

    November 17, 2009 at 7:14 am

    it’s a beautiful list

  5. Manise says

    November 17, 2009 at 7:14 am

    An excellent list indeed! Have a sweater knit itself for me would be on my list.

  6. Nora says

    November 17, 2009 at 7:23 am

    Oh, wonderful list! I think you should look for grant money for #2.

  7. Barbara-Kay says

    November 17, 2009 at 7:32 am

    You’ve answered that question better than the Miss Texas candidates for Miss America. (They’re typically the one all coached ahead of time to talk about hunger, sick children, and world peace.) Teach those gals to knit, and you would really have something! Heh!

  8. jill says

    November 17, 2009 at 8:29 am

    Creative list! You seem to have it covered.

  9. margene says

    If you’re going to dream you may as well go big!!

  10. Kim says

    November 17, 2009 at 8:42 am

    It IS an excellent list!

    Can I join you? I see we have the same goals. I went out to dinner with a bonafide Very Famous Photographer last week and he got all heavy and asked what is the one thing I wished I could do that I just can’t, and I had to say sing. I wish I’d thought of some of your other answers. Especially # 1, and #2, and…..

  12. Sarah says

    November 17, 2009 at 9:03 am

    I love your list. I particularly like #2.

    I like #4 too – I’d love to be able to time travel. If you could figure that one out #1 wouldn’t be necessary.

  13. Vicki says

    November 17, 2009 at 9:04 am

    Haha. That is a great list!!!

  14. Corrina says

    November 17, 2009 at 9:29 am

    I think I agree with all of them. But I would really like to be able to sing. I don’t want to be able to be famous sing. I just want to be able to carry a tune.

  15. Tracey says

    November 17, 2009 at 9:37 am

    Great list! I love #3. I saw clips of Carrie Prejean on Larry King and she was talking about how she “meeted” Donald Trump. Seriously? “Meeted”?

  16. Patty says

    November 17, 2009 at 10:03 am

    It is a great list and I’m right there with you on all of it! Really…that Prejean chick has got to go!

  17. Norma says

    November 17, 2009 at 10:11 am

    It’s an excellent list, and even one that I might be able to take on!!!

  18. Laurie says

    November 17, 2009 at 10:14 am

    May I copy your list verbatim? Love, love, LOVE these.

  19. Knitnana says

    November 17, 2009 at 10:34 am

    Great list! especially #6!
    (((hugs)))

  20. kmkat says

    November 17, 2009 at 10:46 am

    Excellent list! But I think that you will have to do something about that annoying testosterone that half the population seems imbued with in order to accomplish #6 and #10. Good luck, though 🙂

  21. Hillary says

    November 17, 2009 at 12:18 pm

    That IS a great list. No surprise that a few of those made my list too. Maybe if we sing to her then SP would get so scared she’d high tail it back to Alaska. Just an idea.

  22. Carol says

    November 17, 2009 at 1:13 pm

    #2? Yes. Yes! YES!

  23. kathy b says

    November 17, 2009 at 1:55 pm

    I wish that when I knit, the house magically cleaned itself. every time I picked up needles,

    I would love this!

  24. Renee says

    November 17, 2009 at 2:27 pm

    An awesome list!
    Knit in my sleep… oh yeah…

  25. Carrie says

    November 17, 2009 at 2:41 pm

    #5 would be nice, but I’d settle for #2 and #3.

  26. Bridget says

    November 17, 2009 at 5:08 pm

    If only … 😉

  27. Sara says

    November 17, 2009 at 5:13 pm

    Very good list!

  28. Julie says

    November 17, 2009 at 5:18 pm

    I wish SOMEONE would figure out how to do #2!

  29. Laurie says

    November 17, 2009 at 8:27 pm

    Nice approach. I sure wish you ruled the world.

  30. Helen says

    November 17, 2009 at 11:36 pm

    Great list! I do think 2 and 3 could be combined and you could get an extra wish!

  31. Sue says

    November 18, 2009 at 12:18 am

    It IS a nice list. And I agree with all of them.

  32. Sue says

    November 18, 2009 at 12:20 am

    But I would add “get thin” to my list too — hmmm, that’s 11, isn’t it.

  33. Dixie says

    November 18, 2009 at 9:44 am

    What a wonderful list! And I’m your twin according to #9…

  34. JessaLu says

    November 18, 2009 at 11:25 am

    Great list!!

  35. Sarah says

    November 18, 2009 at 1:45 pm

    What a fun list!

  36. Cookie says

    November 18, 2009 at 10:42 pm

    Fabulous, I think.

    You can’t sing? Really? I always figured you had a wonderful singing voice. Learn something new everyday.

  37. Teyani says

    November 19, 2009 at 12:01 pm

    great list.
    oh yes, and number two? I so agree. every time I see her photo I do the old face-palm thing. She is down right scary
