No. My most exotic European dairy experience was Muller Fruit Corner yoghurt. Well, maybe Gorgonzola. Do you support the local sports team(s) where you live? ---

Rarely, so not really. The only local games I’ve been to are hockey games. Meh. Have you seen the Mona Lisa in person? ---

Yes! I had a great, long weekend in Paris with a pretty girl I knew when I was on a college semester abroad in London, 23+ years ago. Had to go to the Louvre, and of course had to see the Mona Lisa. Good times. Have you seen the Statue of Liberty up close? ---

ETA: Yes, I’ve seen it. Went to NYC in -98. Ever seen the Grand Canyon? ---

No, but I hope to someday. Does your significant other have any really annoying habits? ---

Yes. He doesn’t exist. Annoying as hell. Are you a member of one of the “named” generations? ---

I’m either a late X or an early Y, being a -79. Is Arnold the greatest action star of all times? ---

Definitely. Would you vote a movie star into high office? ---

If I were convinced of his or her intellect and good temperament, and if I agreed with him or her on the major issues, yes. (Tom Hanks, Robert Redford and George Clooney spring to mind). Is there a movie star you like so much that you always try to see his or her movies? ---

I watch anything Bruce Campbell is in (even bought the PC game _Tachyon: The Fringe_ just because of him), but he doesn’t make movies anymore, I don’t think. Do you and your SO have “the list”? ---

No. Have you recently found the streets jammed with broken heroes on a last-chance power drive? ---

I saw the aftermath of a car accident today. Does that count? Have you ever dyed your hair an unusual color (e.g., green, bright bright red, purple, etc.)? ---

No. I was considering a tribal when I was in college, but it wouldn’t look good at all on my currently quite flubby form. Ever won a drinking game? ---

There’s a fine line between winning and losing a drinking game. So yes. Ever had a great idea for an invention? ---
