Bah, the wishes in this thread mostly suck.

1) Immortality
2) Ability to change form
3) Teleportation

You won't need much else.

Time travel is interesting but it might be more trouble than it's worth.

I totally agree. Of course you would have to have some way to die if you needed to. You would be sad when people died, but you would get to see where mankind ends up, and that would be better than any downside I can think of.

This is the correct answer, plus some caveat that there's no gotcha. i.e. you're immortal, but your body still deteriorates or you can teleport, but somehow it's done in a way that screws something else up.

Do you not see any trouble with immortality?

I do, but dying sucks more.

Perhaps you could make it so that the only way you could die is by suicide.

What happens when you fall in love with someone. You have to watch them age and die.

What are your three wishes?

I think mine would be.

1) I want to have enough money to never have to worry about money again.

2) I want to be able to time travel.

3) I want three more wishes.

With 2 you could take care of 1.

1. Know what people are thinking.
2. See the future.
3. Be above the law.

I'd take these first two and substitute either changeform, teleportation, or mind control in for the Harley.
