This game cracks me up! So I thought with all the insane humors on this board, we could have some fun!

How to Play:
1. Post a wish.
2. The next person posts granting your wish, but it's not quite how you probably imagined it (think of evil genies and the like - there was a great X-Files episode this might remind some of)...
3. They end his/her post by making another wish, which the next person uh "grants" :taz:

Example:
1. First poster: I wish I had a time machine.
2. Second poster: Granted, but it only works in ten second intervals.
:)

Here we go!

I wish I had unlimited credit lines with scuba vendors.

Granted, but this credit will only apply to Mares Hub BCs and split fins.

I wish I had unlimited holiday time to take dive vacations...

Granted but you only get to take mental health vacations at the local looney bin.

I wish I could snap my fingers and instantly be transported anywhere in the world!

Granted - you've won, but you used a random quick pick, which randomly chose Elvis Presley's birthday, and today is his birthday, and you get to share with 18,329,041 other lucky winners - your share - $0.35

I wish I had a double set of steel 104's

Granted and it turns out the only people going with you are the winners of the most recent "I look like Fabio!" contest - and they keep repeating "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter"...

I wish I was a master chef!

Granted. I know it must seem that I am your genie in a bottle.. but I'm simply passing on good news..McDonalds called...they said you've been hired to develop a new carb-free french fry for 3rd world markets.

I wish I were diving RIGHT NOW!!

Granted! But you are going to have to explain to your work why the toilet water died your skin and hair blue!

I wish I could have a professional stylist do my hair every morning before work!

Granted!! Unfortunately, you've just been laid off.

Granted, You are now sponsored by a Chinese dive gear company XiLin who is based in the Sichuan Province. All their dive gear is tested from a 10' springboard and the crash test dummy drowned.

I wish I could find enough hours in the day to get everything done.
