I want a free jet pack, and an XBox. And ice cream for breakfast, and health insurance.

They promise to do what the dying children want, but can safely renege because the children die.

       I thought this would be a party like the one in the last chapter of Finn Family Moomintroll where the Hobgoblin grants every creature in the forest one wish. Oh well.

       Didn't Jimmy Carter switch to the Habitat-for-Humanity party?

       I don't know, but the Ikea-for-Inhumanity party has just launched in North London.

       Better yet, how about a Dungeons and Dragons party? They could decide government policy based on the roll of the dice.

       A surprise party would be exciting.

       And in the US, the elimination of the marriage penalty in the tax code brought the fast dissolution of the Bachelor Party

       Then of course there would be the nicknamed Preservationists who want to keep everything in air tight plastic containers...(burp - oh, excuse me)

       And the Reservationists that are running on the "Never Have To Wait In A Restaurant" platform

       And what about the contortionist party..."There's no angle we can't negotiate"

       ..all on our tab, of course. I'll pass.

       I made a wish, it was for a party. And the first guest sent an invitation, was an angel. (So very nice to read your words again.)
