Well, Pandora, since you are asking. What I'd love is a time machine that looks like a 1956 Ford Thunderbird. Powder blue with a white top, please.

Oh... I don't really plan it... inspiration often happens spontaeously, or out of necessity!!! Or is that invention!?? smiley - tongueout

A bit difficult to inspire these days, since all the crazy people are out killing others, and the trite ones are pumping out asinine lyrics and music for boy bands and Britney Spears...

Not that I am a Jaded Muse Mother, or anything... smiley - tongueout

We called them 'muscle cars'. Yes, If I get my wish for Christmas, you may join me. I have a hankering to see a bit of the future.

Probably a yo-yo. It looks like a toy. BTW, the '56 T'bird was not a muscle car. The Mustang was, along with late 60's Dodges, Chevys and Fords. My cousin had a '68 Dodge Charger. It did 120 mph in about 15 seconds. At least, that's how I remember it.

Put four people in a mini, and it did 0 to 60 in about 15 minutes!
