In a Perfect World

What is your idea of the perfect world? What would yo do if one day you became king of the world? I'm sure you've considered that scenario, and you know what? It won't happen! It's not a perfect world, nor will it ever be. But, just for the sake of fantasy, here are my ideas for the perfect world.


Daylight Savings Time would be eliminated. Just offset your clocks by a half hour and we're even.

The temperature would be 65° all year. To me, the right temperature is not too hot, not too cold.

All cigarette factories will be shut down. We've been eternally educating people of the dangers of cigarette smoking, and now it's time. The cigarette plant employees can find more respectable jobs. Of course, any surplus tobacco stock will have to be destroyed in an environmentally-safe way.

If you save x number of fast food restaurant receipts, you can redeem them for a free meal.

Every other web site wouldn't require you to become a member to be able to use it.

Children under the age of five should not be allowed in movie theaters. Their incessant crying during the movie should not be tolerated.

The radio DJ wouldn't talk into the beginning of the song and over the end of it.

Every fourth TV channel wouldn't have that big ugly watermark logo in the lower corner.

On your birthday, you are entitled to freebies from many retail businesses. These include department stores, video rental stores, restaurants, and more!

Every item you've rented at a video store would be discounted when you re-rent it.

Cable TV users should pay for only the TV channels they've chosen to watch, rather than the regulation set.

If you were interviewed for a job and didn't get the position, you'd be paid for the time spent.

If an item goes on sale right after you've purchased it, you're entitled to the discount.
