Granted, my information may be as simple as: Did you hear about that British study where people actually said they'd rather give up having a flushing toilet than Facebook? I mean seriously, people! Let's think about this for a moment (and I won't even go into the whole bit about other countries where it's impossible to find enough clean water to drink let alone bathe or flush a toilet with!)Here's the full list--what order would you put this in? I won't go through all of them but I can damn well tell you that a washing machine, vacuum cleaner, flushing toilet, fresh water, shower, fresh veggies, a/c, lightbulbs, and okay I admit it, chocolate, would come before ANY Facebook, email, google, internet connection or what have you. I do like the sunshine as #1.

Now I can't think what would be my #1 but sunshine, fresh fruit and veggies, freezer, dryer, shower, flushing toilet, clean drinking water, washing machine, heating, air conditioning, fridge, vacuum cleaner, shoes, car or public transportation, and a couple not listed- oven/stove or a foreman grill and a microwave and electricity. These are just a few essential items that I would love to have. Yes some of them are luxury but I don't realize that I really need them until I don't have them (air when it's over 100 degrees outside, etc.)
