What is the most outrageous thing you would do for $1,000,000?
What about for $100,000?
$10,000?
$1,000?
$100?
$10?
I’ll get you started.
For $10, I would spray someone with a shaken coke.
For $100 I would shout “Theatre” at a crowded fire.
For $1,000 I would dance on a balcony at Mardi-gras, while lifting my shirt for beads (no one wants to see a fat man do this).
For $10,000 I would eat whatever bug you put in front of me… live (provided it wasn’t designed to kill me when I did eat it. Poisonus bugs need not apply. Horned worms should be de-horned, prior to eating.)
For $100,000 I would walk to my mailbox, and back, naked. (My mailbox is at the end of my block, around the corner. I’m midway down the block. It’s a long block.)
For $1,000,000 I would go on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, act extremely uncomfortable around the Fab 5, until the very end, where I profess my undying love for Carson and claim that he has converted me… then propose. (I would, of course, prefer the Fab 5 to be in on it, beforehand, but if neccesary, I would do it without their prior knowledge.)

Yes, I know this installment is fairly lame, but I’ll have a better one in a couple of days.
If you could care one disease. Any disease, but only one. The cure would be immediate and permenant, the disease would be wiped off the face of the planet. What disease, and why?
I promised three great If You Could posts to start out the series, so here’s number two. If you could be president for a day, what would you do?
Here are the rules:
1) Any executive order you enact will not be overturned during the current administration. (In other words, if you say do it, it is done, and is not reversed later on.)

Welcome to a new feature on MindFyre called “If You Could…” This is a semi-weekly (in other words, as often as I come up with a good idea) feature where I’ll ask you a straight out question, and let you go wild in the comments. This is a time for dicussion, debate, etc… I ask you to link these entries like crazy, tell others about them, get as much participation going. Even if you don’t participate in the other conversations, I think these are most definately worthy.
To start this feature out, this coming week will feature three posts (including today’s) in this category. Here’s the first:
