The Survey Place

80 Questions

1. In a relationship, would you rather be the one who loves more or loves less? Wouldn't it be nice if it were equal with good give and take? Sometimes you need to receive and sometimes it's better to give.

2. Do you watch 'Prison Break'? Nope. -*Yawn*-

3. Will Saddam Hussein's death sentence be upheld? Woops, I guess this is out of date. Oh, well. A question now would be whether I've watched the video. No, I just can't do it.

4. Are you a good liar? Depends on how motivated I am.

5. Which of your parents is more intelligent? My mom was more practical and book-smart, while Dad was more hands-on, learn-by-doing. They were/are BOTH really smart.

6. Is blogging narcissistic? Yup.

7. Would you rather be an actor or a singer? Singer. I'm already a pretty good actor.

8. Should Pluto remain as a planet? Don't. Care. A. Whit. [sorry, Rosie]

9. Will we ever scientifically prove the existence of God? Nope.

10. If your life were made into a movie, would it be a good one? It would entail long stretches of boring silliness interspersed with pain. I wouldn't want to go see it, that's for sure!!

11. Do you have enough money? For what? I am not hurting in any way.

12. If this life is spent repaying the debts of your previous life, will you have any debts to repay in your next life? Fuck yeah.

13. Sunrise or Sunset? Sunrise. It was absolutely beYOOtiful this morning, by the way.

14. If you were to live your life all over again, would you do it differently? Parts of it, yes. Most of it, no.

15. Who will lift the World Cup in Germany? I'm assuming the winning team, but I have no idea who that would be. NOT the U.S. team, though!

16. Have you ever read 'To Kill A Mockingbird' by Harper Lee? Yes. I should reread it one of these days; it's been almost 30 years.

17. What did drink last? This will shock no one: I'm drinking Diet Dr. Pepper as I type this.

18. Do you enjoy your life? Not lately. Usually, though, it's good.

19. Do you owe anyone any money that you don't intend to repay? Well, I guess technically we owe the hotel in Ohio but we've called Visa and put the payment on hold. I'm not sure where that will end up.

20. Do you have more of a positive or negative influence on the people closest to you? I certainly hope it's positive. I'd assume that if my influence were negative, I wouldn't have many people close to me at all!!

21. Would it be a matter if your children were gay? Not in the least.

22. What is your view about downloading music without paying for it? I wouldn't do it, but I also won't get myself into a lather if I knew someone was doing it. But shhhh: don't tell Sparky that!! :-)

23. Is your hair up or down? Down, curled and looking all right today. For a change.

24. How has 2006 2007 been for you so far? It has nowhere to go but up, but I seem to be handling things remarkably calmly.

28. Are you going to buy the XBox 360? Very unlikely.

29. All other things equal, would you hire the better-looking candidate? I'd like to think not, but anything would be possible. I wouldn't do it consciously, though.

30. Is it more painful after you break up with someone, to still be friends or never talk again? Depends on the person. I'd say I do better with a clean break, however.

31. Are there scents/smells in your dreams? Hmmmm....I think I have dreamed about scents, but not often, definitely not lately!

32. Have you ever woken up in a place, not knowing how you got there? I can think of many times I've slept so deeply and wakened so suddenly that I didn't know where I was. But I've never really not known.

33. If you fail to woo a person, would you feel better if you found that he/she was gay? I suppose I might. It isn't likely to be an issue in the near future, however, and never was in the past either.

34. Do you have a crush on anybody? Nope. No time.

35. Current music? As in right now? We've got the NBC Nightly News on...not sure why Beast wants it on. He's not watching it, and I'm ignoring it. No music.

44. Ever had a pet die on you? Three times.

45. If you jumped out of your bedroom window, will you die? I can climb out my bedroom windows onto the porch roof. If I jumped from there, I'd definitely have some problems walking in my immediate future.

65. Do you get along with your closest neighbors? Really well, great, wonderful. This is exactly opposite our previous house.

66. Under what circumstance would abort your baby? I can't have any more kids, so if I were pregnant I'd definitely want to have it just to see what the hell happened.
In the general sense, though, here are some of the many circumstances could warrant the mother having the option of abortion: rape, incest, illness of the child, illness of the mother, life situations that preclude pregnancy, lack of ability to provide a proper home for the child....
