As humans come closer and closer to developing technology that will bring us into contact with denizens of other worlds, including other intelligent and more advanced races, it is becoming even more essential that we ready ourselves and inform ourselves to the best of our ability as to what is out there in the universe.

It has come to my attention that many of the "great works of science fiction" that have been written in the last century have not been strictly fiction as they have been sold as and as they have seemed. As it turns out, these tales are adapted truth... tales from other worlds and other races... true tales of cultures beyond our earth that have been adapted by talented writers into terms and images that will be acceptable to the modern human mind. The authors of these books, an elite group of humans, were chosen for their knowledge of science, their open minds, and their writing ability by a committee of representatives of a variety of planets who are anticipating our arrival in space.

The committee was formed after millenia of research and experience showed that the introduction of stories from other planets into a world culture's own fiction and mythology made a difference in their ability to deal peacefully with aliens when official first contact is made. Most beings are much more able to accept aliens, when those aliens "seem familiar somehow" than when they are completely beyond anything that they have ever heard or dreamed of. Over the years, many bits of real knowledge about alien cultures and technology have been written in these books that we thought of as fiction. It is my duty as a representative of humanity to inform myself before I next come face to face with members of an alien race.

Please vote for me, so that I can search the local second hand book store, and sales on line for as many of those essential volumes of literature as I can. I have a long trip by plane coming up in a few weeks which will give me many hours with which to inform myself should I be provided with the opportunity to obtain these books.

For the sake of the human race, please, help me get these books (and go out and get yourself some too) Thank you (more)

A plane ticket to take a vacation and visit a friend

As a single mom to 5 sons, some of whom have special needs, I don't get a break very often. Due to my boys needs I have not been able to work in a little over a year and therefore have very limited funds with which to budget.

Last year I was able to take a vacation to visit a very good friend of mine. This trip really refreshed me and enabled me to be a better mother to my boys when I returned home. It also gave me some time in person with my closest friend, who I talk to every day thanks to internet voice chat, but cannot visit as he lives on the other side of the continent.

I very much want to see him again, and to get away for a week while my children's father visits with them, to give me a chance to refresh, de-stress and give me he strength to continue to be the mother that my boys need me to be. (more)

I am tired of wearing bras that don't fit! Ask any woman, this becomes really uncomfortable after awhile.

Unlike the enlightened folks over in the UK, those here in Canada do not consider any size above a DD cup to be "regular" and therefore, these sizes are not carried in "regular" stores. If I want to pay a normal price for a bra I have to get one that is slightly too small in the cup, or slightly large in the band , neither works very well. My "girls " want to be both comfortable and sexy. I have located a retailer in Canada that carries my size [ link ] which eliminates the issue of customs, duty and additional taxes from the need to order from the United States or overseas.Regular prices range from $65 to about $150 for a bra, plus shipping, which I cannot really afford.

Price listed is for two regular bras and one "Shock Absorber" sports bra plus taxes and shipping.

Please help me support my breasts in style and comfort! (more)

We all know that the 80s was a great era, good music, good movies, fun cartoons. I have found a website that sells t-shirts and other merchandise related to the 80s and a few things non 80s related.

I have started a collection of t-shirts to match my movie and music collection. So far I have a flux capacitor shirt, a Goblin King Shirt, and an Edward Scissorhands shirt. There are a few hilarious ones on the site right now "SAVE FERRIS!"That would look really good modeled over top of those new bras that I am hoping to get. So anyway... what could be better than than a few comfy t-shirts reminiscent of my favourite movies?

To put it shortly my chair is toast.

I had a very nice, comfortable, ergonomic desk chair. It was very old, and second hand. The ladies at the women's crisis center where I volunteer gave it to me when they replaced their office furniture. I loved in. Unfortunately, in the past few days the bolts started breaking. One at a time the heads of the bolts holding the chair to the base broke, Seeing as we are in the middle of a freak snow storm lasting days, I do not have a car, and all my boys were not in school due to the above two conditions, I had no way to run out to a hardware store to replace the bolts.

In the mean time I was just being careful about how I sat on the chair. My children however, are not so careful. This morning they started fighting over the computer and within seconds of starting to shove, and while I was making my way across the room to stop them, the third bolt snapped, and the boys fell with their full weight on the chair. The frame of the chair, and the spring bent and the upholstery tore much more than it was already torn.

In short, it is time to hold a funeral for my beloved chair and start looking for a replacement. (more)

Anyone who knows my parents knows that they deserve a little break. My mom is on RHF under the user name mightymom239, check out her profile. She has been going around voting and encouraging people and has yet to make one wish for herself.

For the past 31 years my parents have been caring for my 4 brothers, my 3 sisters and I. I have talked to several of my siblings about this and we all agree that the reason we have become the good people that we are, and the reason that the ones of us who have neurological, social and learning challenges have done so well is because of the support and teaching we got from our parents.

Even now, as an adult I still can count on my parents. I am a single mom with 5 boys, some of whom can be very challenging. There have been times that my parents have dropped important things just to come and help me out I think that they, more than many people , deserve a break... even more than I deserve my desk chair!

what I want to do is put together a little pampering kit, a few bath/massage products from Lush (for some reason even though they are strongly scented they don't seem to bother mom's allergies, a bottle of Dad's favorite wine, a gift certificate for dinner, a paid for reservation at a hotel that they would have to take Dad's bike on a bit of a road trip to get to, and an envelope with a bit of cash for gas money.

For the past 31 years, these two have been taking care of everyone but themselves. Help me to make their 32nd wedding anniversary this July special and all about them! (more)

It seems that my 10 year old son absolutely CANNOT attend school at the moment unless he has a pencil that says USA Papermate Mirado HB/2 on the side of it in Gold lettering on a yellowish orange pencil.

No other pencil will do. After enduring a tantrum of epic proportions this morning I have decided that it is in the best interest of all in my home for me to procure a whole gross of these pencils (144 of them, in 12 12 packs.)

Just because I have dealt with the comments on other occasions, before they start I will state tha my son has a disability that causes him to be rather obsessive about certain things and it is good to pick my battles. These pencils are 2.50$ a pack. Very reasonable, and so, this is one of those times I would rather just make sure that I do not run out until he moves on to something else instead of choosing to make it a fight. (more)

This is a wonderful little invention [ link ] that I would I would like to add to my slowly growing collection of hiking gear. I don't get out hiking very often now but as time goes on and my kids get older the opportunities will become more numerous.

This kettle is great for using in any area, the fire is enclosed so it works when there is a fire ban, and is also great for windy or wet weather because the flame is protected.

The best thing about this kettle, is that I would never again have to do without hot tea. No electricity? No problem! Wind? Rain? Snow? Fire ban? NO PROBLEM? I would still be able to make and enjoy a nice hot cup of tea. (or anything else that requires boiling water, but good tea is very important)

My son Austin has a very hard time sitting still. He regularly knocks over his chairs and has broken a few regular chairs. Today he is sitting on a exercise ball at a short table and though he is bouncing a bit he is staying at the table, not knocking things over and not making a huge mess. YAY!

The ball chair was something that was mentioned briefly in the past by his occupational therapist but we never got a chance to try one because he no longer qualifies for therapy... underserviced area with many kids who need it more than he does.

Anyway... I'm looking into ways to obtain one of these for him because it will be more stable than having him sit on the exersise ball alone and I thought that I might as well try a wish.

Coffee, like chocolate, is one of those things where quality makes a huge difference.

EDelong on this site recently gave me a sample of a kicking horse coffee medium roast blend. It was very tasty. (THANK YOU ELLEN!) so I checked out the web site with intent to order some. I decided though that it would be best to wait until I can order enough to really make it worth the shipping cost.

Oh, and if you vote me up and this wi wins, not only do I get good coffee but Ellen does too, you see, they have a referral program. 1lb of free coffee to the referrer after a new customer makes their first order.... so, if you want good coffee, from a fair trade source, based in Canada, check out [ link ] and tell them I sent you. Besides all that, wouldn't it be cool to have a bag of coffee on your shelf that says "kick ass" on it? (more)

I do not have a car and walk several miles most days, sometimes with a stroller, and other times with a child on my back in a carrier, on all types of terrain. This summer I will be going on at least one overnight hike.

Due to the amount of walking that I do, combined with the fact that my feet need more support than the average (I should have custom orthodics but they are extremely expensive and with good quality shes I can get away without them. ) I tend to wear shoes and boots out very quickly. Well made shoes or boots have more support and of course last longer under the stress of the every day use I give them.

In the past I have gotten over a year of good pain free use out of a well made pair of hiking boots. This is compared to 2 months use out of my current pair, which are already falling apart,. The current ones cost me $60. Quality makes a huge difference in wear, and in the amount of pain I am in on a regular basis. I have determined that it is worth trying to find a way to buy some good boots that will properly support my feet and will not fall apart within 2 months.

Here is a link to the boots I am considering [ link ] (more)

A new lease on life can be as simple as matching underwear

Wish Points: 342.06

Why me?

Well, I have several reasons,

FIRST: my basement flooded last week and the contents of my laundry room has been destroyed. I'm fairly broke at the moment, and I am sure that I can find replacements for other things that I lost like some of the kids clothes, my jeans, sheets etc... at second hand stores and the clothing bank.... but I refuse to wear second hand underwear. That's just gross.

SECOND: Every woman needs some nice matching underthings. Sexy underclothes can boost confidence and make you feel more feminine even if no one sees them but you.

THIRD: One must always be prepared. I think that part of being prepared is to have a wardrobe well stocked with a variety of underwear (and other things of course) suited to any possible occasion, NAUGHTY or nice.

A headset so my kids can call their Dad whenever they need

By: Ambrotos
Amount: $39

Wish Points: 360.58

I know this doesn't seem at first glance to be a "nice" wish but I really think it is. ink it is.

My children use the headset to keep in touch with their father who lives at the other end of the province and I use it to stay in touch with family and friends.

Using headsets with my computer along with a program that I downloaded from [ link ] has really cut my long distance costs.

Having this service has allowed me the luxury of NEVER having to tell my children that I cannot afford to allow them to phone their Dad. I do not want to ever have to say no when a child tells me that they really want to talk to their daddy.

I know that there are cheaper headsets than the one that I have listed, but I have tried many over the course of the past 2 years, and this was he first one I have had that the mic lasted a whole 6 months. In the long run it is less expensive to buy a $50 headset every 6 months, than a 20 or 25$ one ever month and a half to 2 months.

The headset I am looking to purchase can be viewed here but I will be buying it through compuserve which sells it for a few $ less. Compuserve's web site does not currently have the headset details available for viewing. [ link ]

So anyway, even though in some ways this can be viewed as a naughty wish as it is for a "thing" I think making it possible for children to call their father whenever they feel the need is more nice than anything else. (more)

Supplies to make chainmail jewelery

This is a hobby that I have enjoyed for a while. Unfortunatly I am very low in supplies lately due to some things getting thrown out the window into grass and other unfortunately incident resulting in rusted pliers and the loss of thousands of rings and beads.

Chainmail was originally used to make armour. The pattern shown in the video is the simplest of the European varieties. Once you get playing with chainmail in all of it's varieties, it is amazing what can be done. There are several online galleries showing the work of many chainmail artists. Here is one [ link ] and another [ link ] there are also some images on this site [ link ] which is one of the two where I have purchased supplies in the past.

Not only does this hobby allow me to practice my creativity, creating something beautiful, but in some cases it has allowed me to earn a bit of money, and also, surprisingly enough, since I started making chainmail, due to the strengthening effect on my hands I have had absolutely NO symptoms from my osteo-arthritis which for a couple of years up until that point had started to cause daily swelling and pain.

I want to get a new set of jewelery size pliers, and a selection of rings in 18guage and 20 guage stainless steel as well a enameled copper which is available in a wide variety of colours, and possibly some beads. I have not yet completed a project that used both chainmail and beadwork but I do have some ideas which I would like to turn into reality. (more)

Socks

Wish Points: 157.41

I want socks

nice comfortable, perfect fitting socks.

I do a lot of walking, and I honestly didn't realise what a difference good socks make until I bought some for going hiking in the summer.

These socks are made for heavy duty hiking/walking. When it is cold they keep your feet warm and when it is warm they breathe enough that your feet do not get all wet and sweaty. They are a bit tighter around the arch, which kind of cradles the foot, provides a bit of support and makes sure that they do not slip around. They are a bit looser around the toes, but not so loose as to make for extra fabric to slip around, or bunch up.

They have padding on the bottom, thicker at the ball and hell where it is needed and a bit of padding at the top of the foot where the laces of the hiking boots are to protect.

At one point I wore a pair for about 5 days and it didn't get stinky (I know that is still gross.) I bought them at the beginning of August, have worn them almost exclusively (I bought 5 pairs) and the ones that I have still look nearly new.

The problem is that my dryer finds them to be tasty and delicious and one by one they have been disappearing until now all I can find is one tan and one blue!

This will not do. It means that I have to wear normal socks and my poor spoiled feet are becoming quite angry with me. At times I cannot leave my house because no matter how much I fight with them they refuse to be shoved into rough, slippy socks with uncomfortable seams. socks that become soggy when my feet get too hot and don't keep my feet as warm as they need to be when it is 30 below zero.

Please help me appease my angry, spoiled, naughty greedy feet by helping me to provide them with the socks that they love! Aspies on the site, you understand how important comfy socks are right?

The afore described socks may be viewed here [ link ] or here [ link ]

the $60 would cover the cost of 6 pairs of socks + shipping.

It seems that a group of velociraptors has managed to survive the great extinction and hide over the millenia, biding their time until the world was once again ripe for the picking.

The time is approaching quickly when we will have to defend ourselves against this menace. They have been sending scouts in to our homes to spy and learn our weaknesses, defense capabilities and plans for attack. The proof is in the picture.

I have started building my army. My warriors must be created and trained in ancient arts used the last time humans faces such a threat. I have, at this time, only two creatures capable of this charge.

This is serious. The fate of the world depends on it. Sceptical? Go rent Jurassic Park and see what these saurian masterminds are capable of and then come and vote a 5 on this wish.

Yarn to make a heavy blanket, so that I can sleep

Wish Points: 826.82

Apparently some people are working together to grant this wish for me. If you want to help check out Darlinglilred's thread here. [ link ]

I have been having trouble sleeping lately, and part of the reason is that my blankets are not heavy enough.

When I was a kid I had a heavy quilt from my grandmother and I remember how it felt to have that dropped over me and pressing down on me while I slept. Since then, there have been a few times that I have had the chance to sleep places where I have had access to a really heavy blanket or blankets and those nights I have slept very well.

I mentioned this once to my son's occupational therapist and she told me that this is not surprising as many autistic people need the pressure from heavy blankets in order to sleep. In fact, she will often prescribe weighted blankets to autistic people who have sleep issues. These weighted blankets are usually quite expensive (in the range of $220 or more for a queen sized one) [ link ]

I recently finished making and shipping out a queen sized knit blanket to a friend of mine. It's finished weight was just under 12 lbs. This is less than a prescription weighted blanket would be but it was heavy enough that working on it and having it sit in my lap while I finished it was very very relaxing. I think that if I were able to make myself one, it would help me be able to sleep much better. (photo is not the blanket that I made, I did not take a picture of that one)

This $100 would cover more than half of the costs of making a blanket like the one I made for my friend, for myself, as long as I found a great deal on yarn like I did the last time. I am looking forward to finally being able to get a good night's sleep. (more)

Upon their arrival at our northern Ontario stronghold, these new recruits took it upon themselves to look over the current equipment inventory. They were quite concerned to discover our total lack of adequate, comfortable, and inconspicuous transportation.

They have requested permission to place an order for a simple black transportation system, and have suggested the model that can be viewed here [ link ]
This would allow the entire army to travel to any place in the world disguised as carry on luggage. In addition the system has a detachable pod perfect for solo missions. It's comfortable straps make it appealing to humans who might be temporarily employed at various stages in the mission as pack animals.

GON, the fate of the earth, and possibly of the entire universe is in your hands. Without appropriate equipment, even the best trained and most experienced of soldiers will fail. Trust me, you do not want to find out what life is like as a human enslaved on a Gorn governed planet

Please vote in support of the troups because remember, their success means your continued freedom! (more)
