      • Yes, and here's the thing. It's an exquisite luxury to have a tech-free day, which only seems to happen a couple of times a year on vacation. We tend to go places that have ready access to both alcohol and phone lines, so we just give out our hotel number to one emergency contact to be used ONLY IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. Because isn't that the point of getting away from it all?

    • My trip from Paris, France to Firenze, Italy
      • Does sitting between two train cars for 17 hours with a suitcase of smuggled puppies count? (For the record: no, they weren't mine, but were entrusted to us by nuns that boarded with actual tickets; and yes, they had air holes.)

        As far as I can remember, it was the summer of 1998, and I wore a red backpack packed with one clean tank top, 18 CDs, and a $50 travelers check, with gelato and a moped ride in mind.

        I got both, and then some. Boarded a train back to Paris 36 hours later, with ticket this time, and slept the entire trip home.

    • Viva Velvet Elvis!
      • Elvis Presley
        And I'm not talking the "Ed Sullivan Show" Elvis; I mean the beglittered, Vegas, gimme-a-sammich Elvis. A little less conversation, a little more action please. Shouldn't that be the Super Bowl's motto?

        Because he's, well, dead, I'm thinking Elvis would be a showstopper. If he can't be resurrected or summoned off the beaches of Belize, then a giant hologram or digitally projected Elvis probably would work too.

    • If I had $1,000, I'd buy you....
      • ...maybe a nice Chesterfield or an ottoman.

        But seriously. I'm not buying you anything.

        What I would do is rent a person to come live in my house for a week (Or two. In fantasyland, I don't know the going rate for the "take over my mundanity package.") S/he would do the laundry, cook amazing meals flavored with quatre-epices and followed by fruit cobbler, clean the baseboards, and play tea party with my daughter for the 96376th time.

        I would float in a bath of red wine, magazines/books/laptop at the ready.

        That is my wish.

    • If I could bepet a wild animal
      • I'd want a capuchin monkey, just like Ross's Marcel. We would walk around the city in backed by the song "Just The Two Of Us," and I'd glare at people who thought me strange for letting the monkey lick my Pinkberry. (Don't freak, people. Ain't nothin' wrong with a little fro-yo.) Then I'll pretend that I'm not still picturing myself in sitcom montages from 1997.
