Me, a boat! The earlier thread on boats reminded me why I don't want to own one. Went out with some friends one time who had a very nice inboard/outboard ski boat. I was bored to death after two hours. If I didn't have such a strong desire to live I would have jumped over board and drowned myself. If you own a boat I'm very happy for you, the industry employs thousands of people for which I'm grateful so don't take it personal.
What wouldn't be on your list?

Also a boat. We were sailors for 22 years, moving up in boat size à la two-feetitus syndrome to 38 feet. We loved being on the water and sailing Lakes Michigan and Huron, the peacefulness of anchoring out and adventure of sailing to new places in terrible weather and too much or not enough wind. But the boat maintenance finally tired us out. Not to mention the physical exertion of the act of sailing. I miss it but sorry, not sorry.
