Curious as a Cat

(Link in blogroll)

1) Of all the people you know, whose name suits them the best?

My oldest sister's, or possibily Sparky's.

2) Describe what you think a creature from outer space might look like.

I'd be willing to bet that they don't look even remotely humanoid--two arms, two legs, head.

3) If you could control one aspect of your death--except the timing--what would you do?

I'd make sure my doctors and family knew my wishes down to the jots and tittles.

4) What is the largest amount of money you have earned in one day?

Several hundred dollars in a fundraiser (though I suppose technically I didn't earn it all by myself).

5) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.

I love this photo. They guys look really uncomfortable, but it reminds me of a conversation I had recently about whether things need to be "fun" to be worth doing. Of course, I come down on the negative side of that argument. I think the other side may be more prevalent in younger people who haven't had to work hard for anything. Anyway. What kind of faith must one have to prostrate oneself the way these monks have done on what looks like a very hard floor? And is it 'better' faith than that of people who don't do that?
