Oops, I got tagged by Wandering Thinker to list:

2) watching the dancers in a tanguetería in Buenos Aires
3) sitting on a terrace anywhere that smells of orange blossom or jasmine
4) waiting in someone's womb to be born - wouldn't it be great to have a chance of seeing in the year 3000?!
Four things I always carry with me:
1) bus pass
2) digital camera
3) notepad and half a ton of pens
4) book(s)
I'll not tag anyone but leave it up to anyone who wants to play along.

Hmmm, I'll have to think a bit on my lists and perhaps be a copycat in the near future. LOVE, the movie Starman! I could watch it over and over!!!
Thank you for playing along! I've read your list and it's a great one. I could share your choice of favourite foods. And I absolutely love "Mash", the theme song "suicide is painless" is so incredible great... I've even read the books.
Great list and interesting choices. I especially like “waiting in someone's womb to be born - wouldn't it be great to have a chance of seeing in the year 3000?!” I never thought of that :) I wonder what would have changed by then.
Of course everyone (except The Wiz) is much too polite to point out that I meant I would like to see the end of the century (2100), not the end of the millenium (3000) - I didn't really think, mathematically challenged though I must confess to being, that someone born this year might survive to the age of 994 rather than 94...! Although, I WOULD also be curious to know what will have happened in the world by the year 3000.
