1. Did you ever get into a bar and drink before you were 21? If yes, how often?

When I turned 18 I was legal to drink in the state where I was in college. And then about six months after I turned 19 the drinking age went up to 19. About three months after I turned 21, the drinking age followed. I was in bars and drinking a lot before I was 21. And I was drinking in homes at 16. I'm not exactly a rulebreaker, either. Go figure.

2. After Obama, who do you think will be the next president?

Oh good Lord, if I knew that, I'd be more popular than Paris Hilton. I mostly fear that it will be someone with Paris Hilton's IQ.

3. Do you believe places can really be haunted?

Not in the sense of ghosts jumping out at people or floating around and so forth. But I think certain places can cause an unfortunately combination of memory, fear and natural factors to interact in unusual ways. I lived in a house where two people were shot. No hauntings whatsoever.

4. Kimber is flying to Minnesota to finally meet Berleen. What do you think about space travel?

If it's warmer in space than Minnesota, I'm all for it!

5. What if had exactly one year to live. What are the three things you'd want to do before you died?

Plan my funeral, clean out all my paperwork, and travel the rest of the year.

6. What if you could take one thing back. What would that one thing be? What is something you said, something you stole, something you did wrong?

I'd unsay several things to Sparky when he was younger and I was exhausted and mental.

7. Other than emergencies, do you think the cell phone is more intrusive than convenient?

No. I love my cell phone, most of the time. I can tell who is calling me, and not that many people have my number anyway, so it's really not such a bad thing.

8. You are stuck on an island forever due to a plane crash. Like Lost without Harley or anybody else. But you find all the water, food and shelter you needed. What would be the three other things would you want with you?

A functional, charged cell phone or an internet connection and charged computer. A tent and a comfy campbed. I'm only there one night, at most.

9. We've decided you can change one thing about the world. What would that one thing be?

I'd really like it if people would just take a second and think about other people first once in awhile.

10.What if a million dollars fell off a back of a truck. Would you keep it?

As if I'd be the only person aware of a million dollars falling off a truck? No. Anyway, with my luck, if it did fall off a truck, it would land on me and crush me to death.
