Dang, C9G, where do you come up with these questions...?!? ( :d ) How are we supposed to answer this? I'll never get my picture on a stamp, and I wouldn't want a nobel prize. I haven't done anything to warrent a college being named after me, and a holiday is, well, unlikely. So, that leave a park statue. If it's in the middle of the woods, miles from "civilization", then I might go for it...

D) A Nobel prize
Because it has a cash prize.
Statue or holiday, the latter being the more favourable alternative.
I'd hate watching the grass grow from the other side while being gradually forgotten.
Picture on a stamp...
Your statue in a park ---> Too many birds for my taste.
A college named after you --> If it's a college of common sense...maybe.
A Nobel prize --> Not interested in the prize or money
A national holiday in your honor ---> Over time it'll be just another day
Picture on a stamp --> Probably be the last one issued and that'll last forever !!!

It would have to be C.
Reason being is that in order for a school to be named after you, it is usually a sign that you were a major finacial contributor to the school, or that you were some how otherwise famous.
IF I were a major contributor, then that would mean most likely, I'd still have money left over ...
Yeah, I'll take C.

None for me for real C0G, I thrive on my anonymity.

Guys, don't you have to be DEAD to have you picture on a stamp? I am not ready for that just yet.
I would pick Nobel Prize
Because, it would mean that I had done something that contributed to making our world a better place.

Isn't there a rule somewhere in all that Nobel Peace Prize process that says that the winner of the prize has to donate the cash award to a charity? Or do something philanthropic with the money? In otherwords you can't use it for your own gain?

Hmmm. . . let's see -
No stamp; my back would be sticky and that would imply certain things about me that would be wrong !
No statue; that would just become a Pigeon toilet
No Nobel prize; They have no further validity for me after recent "Awards".
No holiday; just another lazy day in the neighborhood -
I guess a college - higher education is a nobel goal !
"Those who live by the sword are shot by those who don't"
i think i'd go for the statue, if it could be like this pic. i never heard of a statue of a fat middle aged redneck before
I really wish there were a "none of the above" option. I guess I'd also have to opt for the college out of that bunch.
E: National Holiday! It's the only one that actually gives something positive back to the people; who wouldn't like an extra day off? Nobel prize winners are only remembered for quiz show answers.
If it has to be a choice... guess Nobel Prize... must have meant I did something important... err then there is last year's Peace Prize winner...
So it has to be a prize in science....
... and it has to be awarded anonymously. I am not one to take credit for something that should be a part of the human condition.
Let people bask in their own glory... I do what I do for the simple satisfaction of helping others.

I'll go for the Nobel with its cash prize, even though I haven't done anything to deserve one. Oh wait, I forgot - you don't have to do anything to deserve one!
