Writer's Block: Opposites attract (sometimes)

What are your favorite web or mobile apps? Which ones do you use everyday?

Being a musician always helps :-)

I'm not as concerned about politics or religion, although seriously doubt I could be with someone who was a creationist or a New Age crystal healer who claims to be a reincarnated Atlantean or a member of the Klan or someone who could only talk about makeup and clothes and was ultra-gossipy.

Most of all, though, she has to be able to put up with me and my neverending "hobby of the week" syndrome. Luckily I have found that person!

Writer's Block: Green-eyed monster

If your romantic partner told you that, given the chance, he or she would sleep with a celebrity/public figure you disrespect, would you be amused, jealous, or bewildered? How would they react if the situation were reversed?

View 551 Answers

I would be furious, especially if that celebrity were, say, Jim Carrey.

But I know

humanpacifier wouldn't even dream of doing something like that, so I have nothing to worry about.

Writer's Block: Staying In-the-Know

How do you use the Internet to stay informed about the things that matter to you?

Sponsored by Yahoo!

View 222 Answers

Ummm... by reading stuff on the Internet that interests me? It's kind of a vague question to begin with. 20 years ago one might have answered with "I use archie and gopher and WAIS and USENET" but in this day and age it's just "open your browser and go". It's like asking "How do you use your TV to keep up with current events?"

"Stop that."
"Stop what?"
[timidly] "Stop that. My hands are dirty."
"My hands are dirty, too. What are you afraid of?"
"Afraid?"
"You're trembling."
"I'm not trembling.
"You like me because I'm a scoundrel. There aren't enough scoundrels in your life."
"I happen to like nice men."
"I'm a nice man."
"No, you're not. You're... "

Writer's Block: Change is good

If you had one night left to live, what would you do? Would you prefer to spend your final night with a loved one or alone? What would you choose for your last meal?

My life is always in transition... I start each day off as an uncarved block of clay, ready to sculpt into something new and exciting.

Writer's Block: Relive in the moment

If you could relive one hour of your life so far, what would you choose and why? Would you do or say anything different? How do you think it would change your life?

View 986 Answers

There isn't a single hour I could pick, there are far too many. Every step you take is the beginning of a 10,000 mile journey.
