I'd quite like to make a game about some guy who just cruises around in a big car, kind of like a cross between a road movie, Full Throttle and Fallout 2.  I'd base it in a post-apocolyptic world, or possibly a Blade-Runner style vision of the future, full of dripping pipes and large class boundaries.
Of course, I have neither the time, ideas or expertise to do any of this, so feel free to pillage my idea :)
There's one thing in there that's entirely up to you: Expertise. Just practice on your programming, first starting out with one of those free game development kits, like AGI Studio, AGS or the likes, so you'll get an idea of what it requires, and if you feel like doing some harder work, learn up on programming, focusing on making the engine you want. In the end, lack of expertise's not an excuse to not start building expertise ;)

I'd make an adventure based on a boring old classic nobody bothers to read these days. Like Pamela, or The Faerie Queene, or something like that.
Hmm, on second thoughts, maybe it's a good thing I'm so sadly lacking in computer skills. :)

My game would be pretty much like Taikara
A lovely, talented American young lady who likes cheese? That's a strange game idea. Be hard to fit in the box though...

Hmm, the profanity filter didn't cath your www.just*meep*inggoogleit.com there.
