Private

Railroad Passenger Car — I want it to have a dome on the top. I want it to have an outside observation deck on one end. I want it to have four private bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and shower. The bedrooms should be at the end opposite from the observation deck. In the end with the observation deck, I want it to have a dining and sitting area. Between the bedrooms and the dining and sitting area, I want it to have a kitchen. I want all of the appliances to work with both electricity and propane. Where that isn't feasible, I want duplicate appliances. I want it to have ample propane tanks, holding tanks, and potable water tanks. I want the wheels to have electric generators to charge the batteries. I want it to have facilities for audio tapes, CDs, DVDs, videocassettes, both Beta and VHS, and mobile radio and television reception. I want it to have facilities for mobile internet connection.

•

Jeans: I prefer black jeans instead of blue jeans, if I can get them. I'm presently wearing size 40x30.

and Finally

•		A student to train as my replacement

•		Seven wealthy benefactors — one for each day of the week

•		A rich, fluffy, strawberry blonde with a Southern accent who knows how and when to keep her mouth shut — and who actually does so. Also, it wouldn't hurt if she's built like Jessica Rabbit and walks like Deanna Troi. Oh yeah, I don't like makeup or bras. Finally, I wouldn't complain if she likes to cook, wash dishes and laundry, and do housework. Feminists can go jump in a lake.
