Yes. Quite a few times when I was a kid - bugging the stewardess paid off šŸ™‚ Star Trek or Star Wars? ---

Iā€™ve never seen an episode of Star Trek. :eek: I did watch the movie the other night though. Being that Iā€™ve never seen Shatner in action I cannot choose one over the other. Do you drink coffee? If so, how do you like it? ---

Started drinking coffee in grad school- black, no sugar. Unless itā€™s a latte, but still no sugar. Ever had an operation? ---

I only speak 2 languages, English and Bad English [/Butch Coolidge]. But, as Iā€™ve been living in India for a year now, I am finally starting to learn Hindi. I can pronounce nearly six words now. šŸ˜ƒ Ever wake up next to someone and not remember their name? ---

No. Another vote for George R.R. Martinā€™s _A Song of Ice and Fire_ series. Start with _A Game of Thrones_: [A Game of Thrones - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_game_of_thrones) Ever held a longsword? ---
