If you were paid 1 million dollars to spend the night in a supposed haunted house, would you do it?
Of
course especially since I don't believe in ghosts. The only thing
that's making me think I ought to pass on this offer is the word
"supposedly"...it makes me feel like this whole thing will turn out to
be a trap...a deadly trap...
If you could trade places with any person living or dead, who would you trade places with?
I
would trade places with someone living since trading places with
someone who's dead doesn't make me think I'd be able to do much of
anything. :-)
If you could shorten your life expectancy by 10 years to become more attractive/desirable, would you do it?
Hell yes! I'm ugly already. Why wouldn't I do this? Where do I sign up?
Whom do you admire and why?
I don't know. This isn't a question I've ever given much thought to.
What was your favorite bedtime story as a child?
A Kitten: a poem by Eleanor Farjeon. It was always the last one before going to bed. :-)
You're walking down the street, you come across a burning building. A woman says her baby is trapped inside, what would you do?
Take out my cellphone and call the fire department. This is not a job for me.
If you could choose the future profession of your son or daughter, would you?
No
What was your best experience on drugs or alcohol?
I haven't taken any prescription drugs with any fun side effects
What was your worst experience on drugs or alcohol?
Taking
a couple of Benadryl about an hour after getting up on my day off for
my apparent allergies only to discover that they make you REALLY tired...basically ruined my day off. And for those of you who know me, you know the actual answer to this question.
As your walking down the street you find a suitcase full of money sitting next to a parked car, would you take it?
Tell me again how exactly I know that this suitcase is filled with money...
If you found that a close friend has AIDS, would you still hang out with them?
Of course. What would their having AIDS have to do with my decision to hang out with someone or not?
In front of you are ten pistols, five of which are loaded. If you
survive you'd receive one hundred million dollars. Would you be willing
to place one to your head and pull the trigger?
Of course. This
question is poorly worded so I would simply place the gun to the back of
my head backwards so even if it's loaded, it'd likely only affect my
hearing and the recoil might knock me out but whatever at that point,
right? Although I'm again sensing a trick...these may not necessarily be
U.S. dollars...or even if they are, they might be cancelled notes. :-)
How old were you when you lost your virginity?
Twenty-four.....
Do you believe in ghosts, werewolves or vampires?
No, no, and no
If you could live forever, would you want to?
We'd have to discuss terms first. If I'm gonna end up like Tithonus, then hell no.
Which fictional movie character most resembles who you are?
Ikari Shinji
If you could go back in time, which time period would you visit?
Do
I get to take things back with me? That makes a big difference to me.
Then again...done right, I suppose I could bury it somewhere for later
recovery :-)
If they were to televise a live execution, would you watch it?
I would have to. I can't be in support of the death penalty and then turn my back to its application.
If you could be the president of the USA, would you be willing to do it?
Sure.
My plan to get the two parties to work together would be to veto
everything. Since it takes two-thirds of the House and Senate to
override a Presidential veto and no party I think has ever held such a
majority, they'd have to work together to get things done. Even if it
passes with the requisite two-thirds, I think I would veto it anyway to
call their bluff. :-)
If you could choose the sex of your unborn child, would you want to?
Let the first one be random, and the second one can be the other sex.
Would you rather live longer or be wealthy?
Having
the latter helps with the former. But while money does not bring
happiness, it does bring freedom...so I'll take wealthy. :-)

THIS WAS REALLY FUNNY WHEN I WAS TEN...
Back when I was still living in my childhood home, this gag dub of a Japanese Super Sentai series aired on the USA network. I remember watching it so many times that I practically had it memorized. While I'm glad to have found it, the years have not been kind on it. I'll admit I'm kinda doing the finger pull on the collar while watching all the while acknowledging that some of the lines are actually still funny ["But you're dead!" - "No, you're wrong. I'm almost sure of it!"] though the soundtrack is the true winner in the whole thing [and I say that without irony]
Enjoy...if you can...
Dynaman: Episode 3 "Day of the Dolphin"

If I looked on the bed next to you, what would I find?
Sheets, covers, two pillows, a tissue box, and the clothes I plan to wear later today

That entirely depends on whether anyone is home or not
Are your underwear and socks folded in your drawer or just thrown in?
Folded and neatly arranged
Sleep on your back or stomach?
I start on my back and end up on my side
Are you a cuddler?
I'd like to be but that would require having someone to cuddle now wouldn't it?
What would I find if I looked UNDER your bed?
Spare sheets, some boxes, my disassembled fan, two carrying bags, and a bayonet
Something that happened today that made you angry?
I overslept?
What were you doing before this survey?

Likely more of the same :-)
Marriage or living together?
Start with the latter while working on the former

My dark grey sweatshirt
Do you sing?
I sing along to songs, yes; but they're all private concerts :-)
Do you de-label your beer bottles?
I don't de-label any of my bottles
Do you talk about your feelings or hide them?

How long does it take for you to fall asleep at night?
Over an hour
Current song on MySpace?
"Greeting Committee" by The Pillbugs

No. Knowing the snooze alarm will go off again in nine minutes isn't conducive to falling back asleep

No
What is the current advertisement on the side of the screen?
A bobble-head doll of the Talky Tina doll from that episode of the Twilight Zone

I try not to look forward to anything since every time I do, except for one time, I've always been disappointed and/or had my hopes dashed

Not anyone since I'm either at work at that hour and since I hardly ever receive texts

Sleeping because I have to be at work that night

Small things and replacement things since I don't have the space to store anything anymore
You need a new pair of jeans, what store do you go to first?
I haven't worn jeans for a long, long time so I wouldn't know. Mystic, what store would I go to first? :-P
How do you feel about your hair?

What movie is in your DVD player?
I always take the DVD's out before turning the player off
If you could move away, no questions asked, where would you move?
My Hometown or my collegetown
How much do looks matter to you in a guy/girl?
I guess more than somewhat since that's a major initial component to attraction
What's the greatest thing that happened to you today?
After actually reading the instructions on my 1040A, I discovered that I would be getting a refund afterall. To reckless spending!
