It doesn't matter to me who wins. SorryWYR got to the Superbowl or have dinner in a large room with William and Kate?
Dinner with William and Kate. :)WYR kill or be killed?
I think in the end I'd rather kill than be killed, unless it was someone I loved who I accidentally killed like in a wreck. Then the reverse. WYR have to live a life where you had no spring or no autumn?
No spring.WYR go on a dream vacation for two weeks or spend five days with anyone of your choice but you stay in your hometown with them?
no autumnWYR cut off a finger and never have to worry about being sick or getting any diseases or cancers or keep all your fingers and still get sick?

Swimming underwater without breathing would be amazing! (And I wouldn't like to know what people are thinking, really)WYR have a gift voucher to buy unlimited books or to eat unlimited free meals at a fast food outlet of your choice
Books for sure; food is a lot cheaper these days with $10 paperbacks and so on. Plus, of course, consider the hips.....WYR have a $1000 certificate at a dept store such as Macy's or a real upscale place like Barney's?

Cut off one finger. Never to be sick and just close my eyes is my goal.WYR why a few things each season or shop excessively
Shop excessively, there is always something new I need!WYR be famous or the best friend of someone famous?
Famous I guess, depending on why. Famous as a serial killer, no. WYR have Christmas/seasonal holiday closer than it is today, or not as close as it is today?
Not as close (My birthday is in December before the holiday)WYR have presents under the tree for you on Christmas or just buy /get what you want throughout the year?

Emphatic no to both. I can't imagine trying to live with that knowledge. WYR have to go to bed early and rise really early every day (say, 5 am) or have to stay up late and not rise until say 11 am every day?

Physical, which makes me feel kind of guilty, because I've published my own books only in e-book form. Which you rather have the power to visit other people's dreams or have teleportation travel become a safe and affordable reality?
Good question! Hmm...I'd say teleportation travel. WYR go see a talk show live or behind the scenes at a reality show.
behind the scenes. I would want to be able to ask people why they said or did something and I could watch from behind the scenes.WYR meet President Obama or Vladimir Putin and what would you ask him?
President Obama. I'm not sure what I would ask but how exciting it would be to meet the president!WYR go see a movie or a play?
