Get to know each other...

No, but I do need one.

Would you donate a kidney to a friend who needed one?

Absolutely. I tried to donate some of my hair to my brother- he’s 36, and has been mostly bald since he was about 20- but it would have been too expensive.

Have you ever had an operation?

Yes. Tonsils and wisdom teeth removed, a few years apart.

Did you ever want to be an astronaut when you were a kid?

Nope, not really.

Did you go to your senior prom?

Yes, but I had to leave after an hour because my date sprained her ankle swing dancing (with someone else).

Were you a cool kid in high school?

I was very well-known, yet unknown. In other words; most people knew of me, but nothing about me. Cool?.. I dunno. That would depend on how you looked at it. I was no role model.

Have you ever spent Christmas alone? (If you don’t celebrate Christmas, how about New Year’s Eve at the strike of midnight?)

Yup to both. I’m not much of a party person anymore.

Do you play a musical instrument ?

No. I did learn to play the cornet in junior high school, but that was a long time ago, and I’ve not touched an instrument since age 13 or 14. So definitely a no these days.

Do you try to go somewhere on holiday (vacation) regularly, at least once a year?

Yes. We go to see my in-laws in Vermont for the July 4th weekend, then to the Outer Banks for a week sometime in the late summer, and we alternate Thanksgiving and Christmas with my wife’s family and mine, when possible.

Have you watched a movie in a theater in the past month?

Yes – went by myself to see a matinee of a documentary about the winner of the first season of Project Runway.

Do you do any crafty type activities (knitting, model-making, etc.)?

I built my computer. I dunno if that counts. Also, I used to build radio controlled cars.

Do you carry anything other than keys/wallet in your pockets?

Yes. Penknife, some Kleenex in a back pocket, and my perennial to-do list(s).

Can you play a musical instrument?

Nope…

Do you own any videogaming systems?

A PS2, and a PC. At various points I’ve had an NES, SNES, Game Boy, N64 and Playstation.

Can you dance well?

I’m probably the best tap-dancer in this thread. Seriously.

Do you believe me? :wink:

I want vids! :slight_smile:

Do you like to dance in public?

No. Don’t like to dance at all, and doing so in public is mortifying. It’s especially annoying when villagers upcountry try to get me to dance the “ramwong,” a basic folk dance that can be done solo or in groups.

Do you try to keep your currency denominations in descending order in your wallet?

No, ascending order. Ones in front, then fives, then tens, then twenties.

Have you held a $100 bill in your hand in the last year?

Well, I guess I meant either one as opposed to just cramming them in any old way, which is the Thai method.

No, I have not. I only buy dollars if I’m going abroad, and it’s been almost two years since I’ve left the kingdom.

Did you lose your virginity as an adult?

I was in High School, so no.

Been to any weddings in the last month?
