1) Would you prefer to have your own swimming pool or your own airplane? Why?
Seeing as how I can't swim, I'll go with airplane. I know someone who's a small-craft pilot--come to think of it, I know several airline pilots as well--so I think I'd be ready to travel in a heartbeat. We're less than 10 minutes from a small airport, too.2) Which items in your house do you think will bring in the most money at an antique store in a century?
Huh. Assuming they don't get broken, I'd bet on the small Roseville vase of my mom's and perhaps some of the furniture and/or s&p's. Nothing of ours, per se, just the stuff we've inherited. I don't buy stuff as an investment; I buy it cuz I like it. It would be weird if the motley collection of books I have will be worth anything in 100 years, though.3) Do you shop around when you look for clothes or do you buy the first thing you like?
I hate shopping (have I mentioned that?), so if I find something that's at least in the right ballpark, playing something that looks like the right game, I buy it. This often leads to me buying stuff that I wear once and realize is all wrong, but I rarely pay much for things, so....4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.
Lots of good presents yesterday. Great Christmas day in that way, and in every other. Boxing Day...not as great.
2 sweet-talkers :
I'm afraid books in the 22nd century will be like 8 tracks are today...
Could be. I'm more inclined to think that in the future, mass-produced books will be a thing of the past, but good books, one of a kind books, will be the illuminated manuscripts of the day.
