What do you think real life needs that you can get on a computer? Add your own to the list also...

My wants:
1. A search function
2. A popup blocker
3. An ad killer

Dude, how often do you lose your keys? If you're like my wife, and you lose your keys an average of 7-8 times a week (I'm SOOO not lying, she doesn't hang them up and often puts them in wierd places, like the freezer) then you should REALLY check out the Sharper Image. They have this key finder thingy that, while pricey, has saved me a THIRD locksmith bill since purchasing it. I had to call a locksmith two other times when she couldn't find her keys, borrowed my spare, and lost the friggen spare...this thing has paid for itself prolly 3-4 times already. I got the larger version and attached one of the finders to my TV Remote she keeps losing on me too. This link is to the one I bought, but they have smaller versions available....lose a lot of stuff, mine looks pretty inexpensive

And my thing that real life needs...an imaging program, so I can go back to a better copy and start again from there.

Not enough sarcasm I suppose. Actually, I've got a little basket thing I empty my pockets into when I get home. Was trying to be funny, guess I failed :p

No, really! It IS funny, but when your wife smacks ya for laughing at her, ya kinda lose the sense of humor about the situation!

Yes, Life needs an undo function... and escape, and pause, and... ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- I had it too!

Amen. I feel you on that one. 1.5-2 hours to go 38 miles sucks.

Auto-Save, save and load - you never really know when you are going to put your foot in it.

And ignore someone button like chat rooms.

An "CTRL" command would be nice too...

I think I would like a backup program or an archive so I could recover everything that I forgot!
