[QUOTE=Liberal]

Thanks for participating.

1. Coke or Pepsi - Neither. I don’t drink carbonated beverages.

2. Hillary or Barack - Barack. I believe that he sincerely wants to make a difference in the world, while Hillary has always seemed like an opportunist to me.

3. New York City or Los Angeles - New York City. It’s much more amenable to a non-driver.

4. Rome or Paris - Rome. I find Paris dirty and unfriendly. I love the layers of history in Rome.

5. Karl Marx or Sigumnd Freud - Freud. While many of his theories have been discredited, I find them fascinating and they give me some new insights. I find Marx tedious and difficult to understand.

6. Arlene Francis or Kitty Carlisle - Not enough information to choose.

7. PC or Mac - PC. I’ve never used a Mac.

8. Islam or Christianity - Neither.

9. Homer Simpson or Hank Hill - Not enough information to choose.

10. Electric Blue and Black or Hot Pink and Lemon Yellow - Not enough information to choose.

11. Elton John or Billy Joel - Toughest question so far. I love both, and have dozens of albums from each of them. I think I’d have to go with Elton John because he is probably the better artist and will have more staying power. Billy Joel is a little too much of his time.

12. Eric Clapton or Jimmy Hendrix - Not enough information to choose.

13. Heinz or Hunts - Not enough information to choose.

14. Silver Cloud or Bentley - Silver Cloud. There’s something more romantic to me about a Rolls.

15. Queen Elizabeth or King Gustaf - Not enough information to choose.

16. Charlotte or Atlanta - Atlanta. I’ve only visited each once. Atlanta was one of the great experiences of my life, especially the Martin Luther King, Jr. birthplace, the Atlanta Historical Society, and Atlanta Underground. Charlotte was a tedious business seminar, and it snowed.

17. Birthday Party or Baby Shower - Birthday party. They’re usually more fun for everyone concerned.

18. Cat or Dog - Dog. I’m seriously allergic to cats.

19. Butts or Breasts (for straight men and lesbians) - Not applicable.

20. Packages or Pecs (for straight women and gay men) - Pecs.

Bonus: You’re to be given something and you don’t know what it will be until after you’ve made your decision — 1 or 1,000,000
