The queastion is pretty much just what the title says, what power would you want?
Also, why that power or what you would do with it might make the thread more interesting.
Limit one power at a time, i.e. flight, invisibility, superstrength, etc. it is one power you would have not all the powers of a given character.
List of obvious choices
Flight
Invisibility
Superstrength
superspeed
Imortallity
Telechenesis
Telepathy
Feel free to use those or any others you think of, but one's such as the spirit wave, dragon of the darkness flame, and blades of blood, may require explanation.

I would want super human speed, I could get all of my homework out of the way in a few minutes, and since I can't drive I need to get around some how.

I'd want one hand to be a bucket, and the other a bullhorn. I know you were expecting me to pick things like guitars and laser guns...

Cool Papa. You could carry me around in one of your hands then. I wouldn't need that stupid monkey anymore.

I wish there were smilies with super powers, other than the amazing glowing face power of this smilie.

I figured that if I spelled lazor (in)correctly, everyone would think I was a geek. This way it's just something I knew about. Yeah, that's it.

I'd want the power of flight... and the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away... WITH MIND BULLETS!!!

But seriously, my power would be the power to selectively read people's emotions. It would make it a lot easier to interact with people, that's for sure.

Undo power would be nice. Maybe a little CTRL+Z action on my wrist for when I really loused things up.

Simple enough: if anyone ever asked you a question, all you have to know is a web address (or how to find one) and you don't have to come to your own conclusion about the answer.
Of course, thats just me today. I'm sure if you ask me on a more optimistic day I would agree with you.

Fair enough. It still wouldn't occur to me to use a cite rather than thinking, as after all, I've gone through an extensive course of Hatrack training.
Kayla would bury me with evidence to the contrary; The Rabbit would slowly fillet me with exquisite technical precision; Tom would turn my whole argument on its head with one sentence; Irami would outwrite me; and,
etc. (You all know who you are.)
Anyone with at least a minor via Hatrack should have picked up that simply linking doesn't get points. All it does is open you up to the crossfire.

One of the reasons I love Hatrack. Knowing where the answer is, isn't enough.
Oh, and I dropped out of Hatrack University, but I did pick a few things up.

As long as it doesn't come with the mandatory insanity thing that Well's included in his book, being invisible would be fun.

(Oh, Dan, I'm so sorry. I was trying to "pun" you -- I hope you didn't take it seriously. Or did I miss a punlob in your reply? In which case, )

The power to hold conversations with the spirits of the animate and inanimate things around me. Along with that, I want to be exceedingly convincing when talking to spirits. For instance, I want to be able to talk to my door and convince it to unlock for me when I've lost my key. Or I can convince my matress to be nice and soft. I could even convince the air to be a little warmer on a cold day.
I think it would make the world much more hospitable, although a lot more crowded. The last thing I want is a computer who talks back to me when I'm playing Warcraft...

If I had to pick one, it would be eternal youth.
But much more frivolously, I'd want to be able to be invisible and immaterial. TAK's The Girl, The Gold Watch, and Everything power would be similarly cool. Or being able to possess people.

Time travel, but just to correct my own personal, stupid, mistakes like posting on this forum.
