1. Think Lord of the Rings meets When Harry Met Sally.
2. Ultimately, yes.
3. I've never cycled with a plum before, so it's not my place to say.

1. Do you like your poems to have a rhyme scheme?
2. Can you be physically attracted to someone whose personality you absolutely loathe?
3. Suppose you're marrying the man/woman of your dreams. How would you react if the person conducting the wedding ceremony started speaking with a speech impediment just like that of the clergyman in Princess Bride?

1. The archipellago outide Stockholm and further south is wonderful. The mountains are also great: My favourite ski resort. And last, Stockholm is a beautiful city.
2. No. I've visited twice and I'd like to visit again, but not to move there.
3. The grandfather of my grandmother (on my mothers side) came from Russia. Except for that my family is from Sweden all the way.

I find these questions interesting so I repeat them to see some other answers. Hope it's OK.

1. Dave Grossman, Heather Logas, Brendan Ferguson, Greg Land, and Mark Darin, for inspiring me to decide what I want to do when I grow up.
2. Lime green. I'm weird.
3. Titanic and Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. But they're unintentionally funny in many parts, which more than makes up for the badness.

***

1. Do you find pleasure in watching bad movies?
2. Would you ever move to Canada? (if you don't live there already)
3. If you saw Meg Ryan faking an orgasm in a cafe, would you have what she's having?

1. Well, I enjoyed Titanic, but then I don't think its a bad movie. I also liked The Scorpion King and I better stop now before Jack sacks me...

2. No, but it is a great place to visit, especially in early autumn

3. No, because I wouldn't want a conversation with Billy Crystal

  1. Masturbate. Wait... did I just say that out loud?
  2. Too much. I have to cross a long bridge across a large lake every single day for work. There's no surface street sneak attacks. The bridge is old and it takes MUCH more traffic daily than it was designed for.
  3. These days? Never.

  1. How many books do you have in your 'to read' stack? (I'm up to 7.)

1. I don't really keep count. At least a few.

2. None. I'm sick and tired of all the current and recent AG games looking and feeling all the same (except for recent ones like Indigo Prophecy and Dreamfall). F*** them, I'm on to more dynamic and better produced things that take the best elements of adventures and do them FAR, FAR better.

3. None, the four or five titles I have I've already seen. I've not current desire to own many more.

    I know Trader Vics isn't the quaintist tikki bar, but it's the best thing we've got in the Seattle area since they decided to open a new one last year (the previous Seattle T.V. closed years ago). Lovin' it.
  2. Well, I'd have to start with a mai tai, to be sure you can cover the basic prerequisites.
  3. That would be lovely.

1. Djembe drums.
2. I tend to be partial to guitar - electric or acoustic (they both have a wonderful unique sound).
3. No. Even if I tried, they'd probably get lost. Given that and my bad memory, I can easily replay my games.

3. Is my disdain for fake tits evident in question 2?

1. Believe me, I know exactly how you feel.
2. I have more of a preference for men's bodies, actually. However, my own boobs are very much real, in case you care.
3. Yeah, and I rather like and respect you for it.

1. Why do you build me up, buttercup, baby, just to let me down, and mess me around?
2. Did you pee your pants often as a kid?
3. Does sexism still exist in our society, or has the problem already been solved?

1. Limbsie should be asking YOU that question.

2. Never. I was better than the other kids.

3. Yes, and as long as men are men and women are women it will always exist. What I find disappointing in some women today is that they don't develop the quick wit to spar with men (as many of those ballsy women during the 30s and 40s did) and leave them scarred with desire. However, some men will never learn, and those are the ones who deserve to be symbolically castrated with lawsuits. Cut down to size, as it were. I do believe the fabulous Dorothy Parker would have agreed with me. Oh, and sexism goes both ways. There are many feminist morons out there who lump men as sexist pigs.

1.Because you actually crave and need that adrenaline rush you get when you are forced to hustle.
2.hm..I can only answer for myself. I'm not a gorgeous woman and I don't have a perfect body. No one has that. It is all subjective anyway. I would choose option 2 for myself however.
3. Yup! I certainly hope you're not feeling too much pressure from the plastic...hard not to, being inundated with magazine images of "perfection" which are achieved by airbrushing and surgery...

1. Um....is it because I'm a self centered jerk who likes having a puppet dangling on a string and can't choose what I REALLY want because it means being decisive??
2. Never. But I vividly remember a friend of mine named Amy in our kindergarten class peeing her pants on the playground. I watched the pee roll downhill into a pile of leaves and realized that many ants would probably be killed. I ALSO remember that she had asked the teacher on duty if she could go in to the bathroom (called a 'basement' in that part of the country) and the teacher had snapped "You can wait!"
3.Of course there's still a problem. I blame a lot of that on religion and the literal interpretation of scripture. If God says sin is woman's fault and everything sucks because of women and women are unclean and unfit to govern man...well that's a hard thing to remove from the consciousness of a culture.



1. Do you eat fake fat free foods or the full fat versions which are more natural?

2. Do you consume raw eggs or raw egg products (meringue, caesar salad, zabaglione etc)

3. Do you have any good home made food associations with your parents, grandparents etc? (Sunday dinner....cookies...brownies...etc) Or did you grow up on TV dinners?

1. I eat the full fat version. Who in their right mind would eat food without any food in it? Usually someone who eats a lot of fake fat free foods lacks the self-control to moderate eating otherwise real food.

2. Yes. I love caesar salads. I've also enjoyed steak tartare and I love good sushi once in a while.

3. Almost everything Nanay cooks is from scratch. See, that's what I love about ethnic moms. They COOK. Many of my white American friends used to be jealous of me, as their moms tend to just heat up processed stuff.

1. Yes that happens. Perhaps too often.
2. I'm involved in a "network" (expr?) of families with girls having the same diagnose as my daughter.
3. Outside of this network I've contributed with money to different causes, but not any actual work.
