My secret dream used to be to be the first to see and recognize a
naked-eye supernova for what it was. Of course, the Cubs will win the
world series first.

My secret dream was to be the first person to see a comet on Earth collision
course and not only have it named after me but also to be saved with a few
other select people by hiding in a nuclear bunker.........Of course then
someone made Deep Impact and ruined it for me............now its to swim
with a Pleiosaurus...
