I was always told that if you could blow all of the 'spores' off a dandelion in one breathe than whatever you wished for would come true. I certainly can't remember all the wishes I made but most of them likely involved Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, becoming a professional bodyboarder or winning millions of dollars. Its fun to think back and remember what it was that you wanted when you were young. Honestly, think back at what you would have wished for just a year or two ago and you'll realize how quickly things can change.

You can blow as many 'spores' off of dandelions as you want or toss pennies in a fountain but in the end it's all pretty much left to chance
