Since I haven't posted anything in a while, and no one knows much about me, I'll bite the Three Question Meme. Ask any three questions, and I'll try to answer them as truthfully as inhumanly possible.

Now, to think of some good questions for other people.

1) Biscuits. You can imagine up your own pornography, you can't imagine up your own biscuits.

2) It may sound cliché, naïve and unrealistic, but I don't think I'd choose anyone, because -I'd- know. And if I knew that I'd forget afterwards, I still don't think I could bring myself to.

3) (Warning: I may have too much to do in ten minutes, and may have thought about this too much.) It would depend on whether some things were permanent, and if I could time-travel. If they were, I'd give myself retractable/hideable magic angelic wings with which I could fly. And concealed gills for swimming. Plus alterations for deep-sea diving. Then, I'd go flying (even if I couldn't give myself permanent wings, flying would r0ck.)
After I'd worked that out of my system, I'd probably go back and examine the beginning of time. (Assuming I only have 10 minutes, whatever frame I'm in. And also that the flow of time is immutable.) Then go and quickly examine the truth of the Bible, the world's formation, unravel all the mysteries of the world.
I'd see what I could do for every person on earth, and whether I had time to do it. See what the effect would be, and if it wouldn't be too bad, do it. For example, irrigate the newer deserts, make them into entirely usable land, like it was before the goats and deforestation destroyed it. And yes, I'm aware that the Sahara desert is rather gorgeous, but people are important. Create a usable form of renewable energy. Design and create more efficient modes of transport than the common car. Convert the shanty towns around cities in poorer countries into livable housing, with fresh water supplies. I might be greedy and alter my bank balance a little (I would hope not too much), or design the greatest computer ever. I would probably make myself excessive quantities of shiny things, and a conspicuously normal but really nice house.
For my second to last act, I'd go and talk to my mother, if possible. For my final act, I'd make myself the greatest sandwich in the history of the universe.

I think.

All in ten minutes. Phew. (The sandwich would be the hardest part.)

I hate to double post, but Jebus, that's really much longer than I thought.
