Which would you rather be?

I don't like this at all!!!!

Here is another option: Happy, but 'special'

No, that doesn't work either. I had to vote for rich and feared. I just couldn't control myself. I wanted to pick poor and loved, but my hand went strait for the rich. I've struggled all my life and I want cash I tell ya. Cold hard cash!

Depends on your definition of "special".

'Special' as in you ride the short bus to school....

Montana, what's that rule they tell you about marriages? One for love, one for money....you have some catching up to do...If Mrs. cav divorces me, it will be money all the way

So I can be a happy legend in my own mind!

Hey, love didn't get me anywhere, so might as well head strait for the wallet, lol! Actually in reality, I could never marry someone I didn't love, Damn!!!

I feel guilty about picking the answer that I did because that's just me, but I guess I can't win them all.

Honest and Poor
or
Dishonest and Rich

Rich and blind
or
Rich and a double-amputee
or
Rich and no human contact

Immortal but you have no emotions
or
Rich but you are guaranteed a messy, painful death at the age of 50 (or in 10 years, whichever comes last).

Rich but you have to remain nude forever
or
Rich but you are so fat you can't move.

Since I am honest and poor, I think I'd better give rich and no human contact a try.

Ya know,..if you were omnipotent, you could get viagra for free!

Viagra in the Waters, by Camille West

Just outside of Johnson City
On a dark and twisting road
In a Kenworth 18-wheeler
With a heavy, shifting load
He was pushing through to Binghamton
Though the hour was getting late
Pfizer's finest on a mission
To the pharmacies upstate
He was on a holy mission
There were men who couldn't wait
(for his thirty thousand pounds of Viagra®)

He'd clocked seven hundred miles
Since he climbed into the rig
Just another twenty-five or so
Would finish up that gig
But the trailer hit an oil slick
And down the hill did fly (Oh, my!)
?'til it landed at the bottom
in the town's water supply
It was instant rigor mortis
What a hard way to die!

CHORUS:
Save your sons
Shield your daughters
There's Viagra®
In the waters

All over Johnson City
People rising with the dawn
They drank their morning coffee,
Took their showers, watered lawns
And who could have predicted
All the changes up ahead?
Men were getting up for work,
And heading back to bed
So many called in sick,
You would have thought a virus spread

Down at the courthouse coffee shop
Some stared in disbelief
As a pack of thirsty lawyers
Started filling out their briefs
But at the local college
Young men appeared much smarter
No chromosomal mystery
They simply studied harder
Now water on the rocks
Is the latest party starter

CHORUS

The Johnson City firemen
Cursed their wretched luck
They could not get their fire hoses
Wound back on the truck
Sprinkling holy water at a funeral,
Father Ryan said
"I know I've saved their souls,
but I've never raised the dead.
Would a couple o' strong men help me now
Close the casket lid?"

Old man Weisberg
Took the shower of his life
Then he marched into the kitchen
And he called out to his wife
She knew something was up
As he stood naked at the table
Holding two cups of coffee
And half a dozen bagels
It had been at least a decade
Since the last time he was able

CHORUS

Believers seeking miracles
The pilgrims came in hordes
The waters of Viagra®
Grew more popular than Lourdes
The clergy quoted scripture
But they found it hard to sell
That those who chose to be anointed
Were pointed straight to hell
Despite the dire warnings
The crowds began to swell

Some hardened politicians
Came into town one day
With their permits and their pipelines
Pumped the waters all away
From the heart of Johnson City
Rose the mournful cry of men
But the women knew another truck
Was coming through again
Don't worry?-there's a truck next week
We'll spread the oil again

CHORUS

Rich and feared of course !!

"Loved" is a word that's often heard,
"Feared" is a word that's not,
"Love" I am told,
Is precious than gold,
"Love" I am told
Is hot.

But "feared" to me,
Is by far supreme,
And "Love" just another drug on the mart,
And man can be "loved" like a fool,
But to be "feared" my boy,
Is an art !!

Equus, I would definitely take rich and naked....can't get much better than that.

Equus, I agree with Cav. If I had to pick from your list, rich and nude, but I still prefer rich and feared. Having no human contact would not be fun.

I think if you are rich and naked, you could buy all the human contact you need.

Could be a lot of fun!

Give me rich.
Give me fear.

truth
Was Omnipotent and loved one of the options?

Nope, but go ahead... get creative.

With riches, one can always buy viagra. c.i.
