Wishing the Day Away

Wishes are a natural byproduct of imaginative introspection, which is The Captain’s waking state, minus the loud, obnoxious rants. When you spend your days wending your way through reveries and chemically tainted memories (some even based in reality), you can’t help but wish for some of your wishful thinking to become reality. Here’s what I wished for today, in no particular order:

* I wish the Flat Earthers (people who in the year 2010 still believe the earth is flat and has a physical “end of the world” over which you can careen into lord knows what) would all decide to plan a special expedition. I want them all to gather at a seaport, hire a boat with a crazy sea captain that’s large enough to accommodate them all and go sailing the ocean blue in search of the earth’s edge. And I hope they accidentally find it!

* I wish I could find the double wide in New Jersey where Elvis, Jim Morrison and Michael Jackson all currently reside so I can have my 15 minutes of fame and score some good drugs.

* I wish someone would teach me how to make a voodoo doll.

* I wish for peace on earth and goodwill to all men and women... Just kidding!!

* I wish that I understood women (not really).

* I wish that the NY Mets were world champions and that Unicorns were real!!

* I wish that someone would give me flying monkeys for my birthday. They’re like Duct tape – they can fix anything.

* I wish all M&Ms were green

Believe The Captain when he says: Volo ergo sum (Latin for “I wish, therefore I am.”

Yours throwing my spare coin slugs into the wishing well,

The Captain
