it'd be kinda neat if we lived in a world where you could ask the gods for
one wish in your lifetime.  I guess it would have to be within reason, like
you couldnt say "i wish there were no gods" hehe... unless they allowed it
and someone already did that :/

it would make it a crazier place to live, and i bet the govt would tax wish
based income hehe
