    [QUOTE=Shalot;567601] Wouldn't you just like to slap someone once in a while?

    As harsh as this may sound I would be the first in line to do this if there were no repercussions.
    I would start with the President and CFO of my old company. In their cases I would not only slap them I would call them every name in the book and then some made up ones just to tell them how I really feel about them.
    What Are You Crazy!!!

    My thread took an unsuspected turn I did not forsee. I'm talking about dressing like a pimp and everybody else is talking about slapping people. In that case I would like to somehow ensure that the owner of my previous company was found guilty got the biggest fines/jail time he could possibly get.

    ok, one more. I'd have my own personal theme music following me wherever I go. Like if I was going to do an inspection it would be the imperial death march or if I was going shopping maybe material girl. Of course driving in my lincoln continental it would have to be some Sly and the family stone.

    Oops. Well, in the way the thread was meant to be, I would like to dress like darth vader including the mask and my mask would have to be equipped with some device that transformed the sound of my voice into Darth's voice. And I would go everywhere like that. I would go to work like that on my monthly phone duty day and answer all calls in my darth voice.

    I would take my musical instruments with me everywhere, and whenever I felt like it I would set up my music and stand at random places and just start playing, no matter where I was.

    That's called busking, Sarasvati21, and in the UK at least you can get a licence to play in the streets (though I suspect lots of people do it without the licence!) and may I say how much pleasure buskers have given me? I have heard some really talented musicians playing on street corners and I always give them something for that moment of delight, hearing a favourite melody drifting over the heads of shoppers. A favourite spot in my local town is at the head of a covered arcade - the music echoes down the passage way and sounds even better.

    Now that IS a good idea.

    and can I say violent much, people?!
    what I would like to do is spin around and around and around until I fall over in a fountain. And do the enchanted thing and burst into song and have crowds and crowds of people burst into synchronised song and dance, but less mushy.

    I love walking up grafton street in dublin with all the buskers. Some times we have string quartets too.

    I'd love to go around reciting poetry.
    "Come away O human child!To the waters of the wild, With a faery hand in hand, For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand."
    W.B.Yeats

    Drive a 16-wheel truck

    Loot a bank and have a safe made like the one in Uncle Scrooge's cartoon, where I can swim

    Break in a very high security zone, like the president's house, and have all the security people run after me

    Ofcourse, in both the above cases, if caught, I will land up in jail
    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    Be the change you wish to see

    If there were absolutely no repercussions?!

    WOW!
    I'd definitely do these things:

    1. Kiss the first love of my life [who never actually knew that he was my first love. I was the confidante, you see ]

    2. Tell my boss to get someone else to boss around, quit, drive to the beach and live there, with the wind in my hair and the sand between my toes [while still miraculously receiving my salary, of course! ha! ha!]

    3. I'd slap stupid people. I'm sorry. But there is no blunt way to say that some people are just plain idiotic, and someone needs to let them know this!! [sorry for this one papayahead, but truly, most of us want to hit some sense into some people]

    Oh, if there were no repercussions, I'd immediately stop working and country-hop all over the world... robbing banks whenever I ran out of money... the best thing would be NOT to need money at all.

    I'd steal a car, drive to Indiana to pick up my friend, then on to California or somewhere.
    somewhere far away from here.
