Martin - I think you need to start off such topics with your own example I'd travel the world, working on my research - designing a floating cloud that could support a house. Well... I like the travel the world prospect. Mostly western Europe. I'd own a mechatronics design Engineering firm, and act as a senior consultant, telling my European clients to select my firm's most expensive plan! |

I would live in a nice waterfront penthouse in Toronto, on the waterfront and be a starting pitcher for the Jays. I would drive a Bently with spinners. |

Will you fight with the Capoeira discipline too? What about getting surgery for one eye only? If not, then at least you can get a Hip-Hop song as your intro. |

Gaah! Now we have two supreme noobcakes, I just realized! Also, I think its just me, but I havent heard of any of those games (except rs which I personally think sucks). Hmm, how long would you spend getting that much exp? 2 hours? 3hours? 2 days? Your whole life? I assumed so - great way to spend the time *edit 200 posts! yeah!* |

Whoa now, don't live in a small town. Bad idea. Where do you guys live now? Cuz I live in a town of population 4000 in the middle of nowhere and it sucks. Nothing to do at all. |

Wow, my hometown (Markham) is a lot more populated than I originally thought--about a quarter million. oO; I guess I shouldn't find that confusing, considering my high school (9-12) had 3000 students when I was attending o_O; Waterloo has about half a million people, apparently. |

That makes sense. Wasn't it renamed from New Berlin during WWII (or maybe WWI?) Personally, I'd live in Switzerland. If I could do anything with my life, I would learn. If ever I learn all that interests me, then research. |
