These should be real jobs, not like "video game tester" or "Getting paid to sit around and jerk off."

1. NY Times Supreme Court Correspondent (I think the Court is by far the most interesting part of American politics, so getting paid to watch, analyze, and write about the Court would be ideal. Damn you, Linda Greenhouse! Having my dream job...)

2. Supreme Court Justice (For anyone on a power trip, you should aspire to be a SCOTUS Justice, not the president. Seriously, the amount of power these guys wield is enormous, and somewhat frightening. I would argue that Justice Kennedy is the most powerful man in America. So yes, I am indeed on a power trip, and I have a keen interest in Constitutional Law, so it just makes sense.)

3. NY Times Op-Ed Columnist (Because honestly, every man wants to be Thomas Friedman, and every woman wants to be with Thomas Friedman.)

4. Law Professor, teaching Constitutional Law (It seems as if law professors get to be bigger dicks than other types of professors. And like I said, I'm on a power trip and I enjoy Constitutional Law, so this also makes sense.)

5. Getting paid to sit around and jerk off.

Err, I mean Judge, other than SCOTUS. The difference is huge, so I think it's fair to count this separately. Plus, I couldn't really think of anything exciting.

1) United States Ambassador to Italy. Really, not too much happens between these two countries. Most of the interaction is handled by private business ventures, so I'd just be chilling in Rome, sipping wine and banging hot Italian models, and holding a press conference every once in while. Hell, the US Embassy is located right down the street from the Hard Rock Cafe, so if I ever wanted to sell rock n' roll's soul for a hamburger, I'd just walk down the street.

2) Writer for The Economist. All the writers are anonymous. I find that very cool.

3) US Diplomat. Though I wouldn't wield the power (or have the salary) of an ambassador, I'd get to travel a hell of a lot, and there is nothing I want more out of a career than travel.

4) English teacher in Prague, Czech Republic. I speak English, and that's about all the qualification one needs to teach the language in a burgeoning nation like CZR. Plus, the Czechs know how to party, so I'd be set on weekends.

5) History/American Studies/Political Science professor. I'd like to to teach Gen Ed history courses in college. High school students are too cocky.

-Punk Star- It's not as big or glamourous as a rockstar, which is what I want. I want to be able to live of making music and not be huge and famous.
-B list movie actor- Similar idea to the above. I don't want to be big just get a little recognition here and there. Maybe have a cult status.
-Rugby player- I've just been give then opportunity to play for the US jr national team. I love rugby, so why not play it all day long.
-English teacher in Japan- Yeah, it's weird but I want to go there.
-Robot-Ok, I can't think of any other good ones.

1. History professor
2. Spokesman for Diet Coke, because I hate Pepsi so Goddamn much
3. Professional opinionated dick (think Ann Coulter only with more substantial titties, and less of an adams apple, or think Al Franken, only not a whiny crybaby spaz)
4. Gene Simmons's cock
5. Bounty Hunter

Okay, here's the real list:

1. History Professor
2. Novelist
3. Marketing for a radio station
4. Sound engineer for a radio station
5. Musician (don't wanna be famous really, I just wanna get paid to do it).
