A million Dollars: buy myself a new RX-8, invest the rest until out of college at least.

A billion dollars: Retire at age 18 :D invest the entire lot.

A trillion dollars: Buy an aircraft carrier. Outfit as private yacht. Retire.

Yeah, you're right. Fuck Star Trek. Devote time and money to something that only has one crappy movie, and one crappy semi-series. As opposed to Star Trek, with a total of 5 crappy movies, and 3 crappy series.

Three? I count four: TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT. And I've also heard that the movie count should go up to 6, since ST:10 broke the odd/even rule. I wouldn't know for sure on that, though, since I didn't want to torture myself by going to see it.

:? Personally, out of the ST series, I could actually sit and watch TNG and DS9. Just me, no flames.

I'd do something much like Ando, 'cept in Canada.
I'd make Canada a military dictator ship, with a real fucking military, not some little 52,000 man one. And I wouldn't let the US bully us around no more. We create the Evil Kanadian Empire, MUAWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
