This-or-That Tuesday!
1. Yummier: Chocolate ice cream or strawberry cheesecake? What part of c-h-o-c-o-l-a-t-e don’t you understand?
2. Better to watch on TV: Movies or sports? Movies.
3. A better web browser: MSIE or Netscape (or tell us your own favorite!)Netscape
4. A better way to travel: Automobile or bus/train?I’d really prefer plane, but I guess I’ll take auto. Every bus trip I’ve been forced to take has been Fellini-esque - from the first day of kindergarten (wrong bus, wound up at wrong school) to the bizarro trip I made from Hudson WI to Madison WI just to spare my sister (post-op, of course) from having to get me to the airport. Rick offered to pick me up in Madison. He knew I wouldn’t make it all the way to Chicago or even Milwaukee.
5. Your preferred camera: Digital or film? Film. Until I can get a digital.
6. A Cooler Vehicle: Motorcycle or sports car?Sports car
7. More fun: Video games or board games? Video games when alone. Board games with family and friends. Love that personal interaction and cut-throat competition.
8. Sexier: A perfect body or an intelligent mind?Mind. Always pay attention to the mind.
9. A stinkier smell: Skunk or gasoline (petrol)? Skunk!!!
10. Thought-provoking question of the week: What is more important to you: making a ton of money and being at the top of your field, or finding your soulmate and living a comfortable but not wealthy life? Could I just cobble together my own choice: top of the field, comfortable but not wealthy. Skip the soulmate stuff. I just think the soulmate is an Oprah-ish, cloying construct that has no place in the development of a mature life.

Hope I didn’t offend anyone by saying that I don’t believe in ‘soulmates.’ At least not in the way the average modern woman is looking for one. I think you can throw more of a wet blanket on a party by disavowing a belief in ‘soulmates’ than in asserting blatant atheism. Society is generally quite tolerant of those who chose not to believe in God.......but people who don’t believe there is just one absolutely ideal special sweet lovey-dovey left-shoe-to-your-right-shoe aren’t just wrong, they’re mean and crazy and just don’t understand.
