   If I had a billion dollars I would park it in a charitable foundation under my control.

   Security for my family is what I would use money for. After all, if I only had a million to start out with, I could park it somewhere earning 5-10% and then have 50,000 to 100,000 for the rest of my life each year to live off of. These people with their billions are pretty much incomprehensible to the working stiff who has to go out and earn his daily pittance. And don’t get me started on Paris Hilton, I bet she has no dreams at all.

   After a billion…maybe I’d start a video blog, stay up late, smoke some pot, and ask people what they would do with a billion…nah, probably do that with a grand or two.
   Lorne, brilliant idea filming at 2:00am…keeps it real.
   love it

   I dream all the time, and I have really bizarre dreams.

   Last year I dreamed that I was driving somewhere and I accidentally discovered a gay convenience store.

   Jvon, I’ll pay you good money for the location of that gay convenience store.

   It sounds like a dream come true.

   If you don’t tell me, I’ll do a Freudian analysis of your comment right here.

   I like challenges, taking on big projects, confronting my fears, and helping people out of pain with my massage therapy skills. I like to teach, too. I’d keep on doing all of that even with $$ in the bank. My wife knows. I’d take her on some trips, sure. But I’m not quitting work. She’s okay with that.

   I don’t know. I think it might have been somewhere out on Rt 2 in WA, out around Index or Sultan. Not really somewhere tourists would end up, but you’re welcome to go look for it.

   Oh and as for your analysis, it gets even weirder. While I’m in the store, the guys start talking to me, and I give one of them my phone number, and instead of writing it down on a piece of paper he writes it on this wooden post. (Phallic enough for you?) So I go home and the phone rings right away — it’s some random guy from the gay convenience store who saw my number.

    You know, it could have been, now that you mention it. What are you doing in my dreams, Vince??

    Oh and if I had a billion dollars I’d invest it, and load up the webpage with my portfolio every hour or so and laugh like a loon looking at the numbers. After I got tired of that (I’d give it a month or so) I’d start working on a book. I’ve always wanted to write.

    And maybe if I was feeling generous I’d build that gay convenience store and Vince could manage it.

    Jvon,

    I love you, man. As for what I’m doing in your dreams, think about it. You gave a guy you met in a gay convenience store your phone number. Need I say more?
