Would you Rather?
Viola, I like the lower tones.WYR be in a famous marching band like Ohio State, or be in an orchestra?
A double date, a little less one-on-oneFor that first date, WYR go to an event (sports, theater, etc.) or just out to dinner?
Just out to dinner, gives time to talk and get to know the person.WYR be the one who does the asking out or gets asked out?
Rock climbing- I see no thrill in risking my life bungee jumping.WYR bake a celebration cake or buy one at a bakery?
I usually prefer to watch movies on tv or on computer (it's free, you can choose convenient time to watch, you can stop or during adds go to grab a snack and so on)But in this case if can go to movies for free (and with all my family), I would take these free tickets to movie. Where they distributed? :)WYR pay you bills on-line or send checks in envelopes ?
Generally, in the envelope. I have one I pay online as an experiment; so far, so good. WYR go to the mall on a rainy Sunday, or stay home and watch tv?
it's that's going on right now: Rainy and I'mstaying home, mostly on computer, and my daughter on tv. No intention to go to mall.
WYR shopping on-line or on the malls?
Quarterback. I think baseball is boring for the most part. And pitchers are generally pretty fragile.WYR watch pro basketball, staring 12/25 apparently, or give it the miss it deserves? (editorial opinion)
Bott way that is available in the moment.WYR get for present a house from you relative in horrible condition (paid off) or pay mortgage yourself for a much more smaller place/condo of you choice
snails. I eat them already in French restaurant, it's tasting something about like mushrooms, but mushrooms I like better. About jellyfish not sure I want to try, still I don't like seafood anywayWYR be sea sick or food poisoned sick?
Sea sick.Would you rather attend opening night of a new stage production or opening night of a new movie?
Opening night of a new movie. I'd rather give the stage production a few showings to get the final bugs out before I go see it.WYR go see a musical or a Shakespeare play?
A Shakespeare play preferably romeo and julietWYR have a white christmas in a log cabin or christmas on the beach in the caribbean?
in the caribbean - no matter that, Thankisgiving, just vacation, Chtistmas, or anything else - I always would rathe to be in the caribbean or other places on see.WYR be in too warm or too cold enviroment at you work?
Too cold. It's easier to add layers to keep warm than to take them off to keep cool.WYR be a painter or a sculptor?
Camping. Sitting around a fire is always nice. WYR camp in a tent, primitive style, or in a nice, though not ridiculously fancy camper?
In a nice, though not ridiculously fancy camper (hope it's van, not a shoe). I can stand tent only during one night. WYR (if you can save only one of heptalogy series of books for humankind, and the other just disappear) save Narnia or Harry Potter?
Tough one. I liked HP better myself, but imagine there would be more "redeeming social value" in Narnia to most people.(I have a cat that LOVES to "wash" hands and faces Yuliya. We call it kissing; he wants a kiss back when he does it. Not too spoiled....)
In the book saving vein,
WYR save (and the other disappears) a comprehensive encyclopedia of the known knowledge of the Earth,
or
Copies of the major religious tomes (Torah, Bible, etc.)
I think (even I'm not religious person) that Torah, Bible, etc have more historical value that can not be recovered, so I would save copies of them, and with all my respect and believe in science, I will hope what it will be possible to rebuild comprehensive encyclopedia with even more high level knowledge of the Earth.And my cat by some reason thinks I’m the dirties person in family, because to wash me out he takes the longest time and strongest effort, or maybe just because it’s only me who can deal with his sandpaper tongue.
WYR work for regular salary day shift or for double salary night shift (the same responsibilities and chores) ?
I'd rather work days. Night work throws off a lot of people's health, not to mention messes up their family lives.WYR it be 8 am or 8 pm?
Sure stories to preschoolers!I still like picture books and I like to read aloud and I like kids of any ages (smart kind, like mine) I have no needs in post offices for several years.WYR DON't have computer or cell phone?
Computer, can't live without it nowdays.Cell phone, I leave mine in the car at all times. I am not and never will be available every minute of the day.
WYR have a new fancy video game set (Wii or whatever) with all the accessories or a new fancy large screen with all the bells television.
Hibernate until spring. Sounds delightful. Especially if I have my books and E readers with me.WYR: win the lottery or inherit lots of money?
Lottery. No death involved. And I'd tell NO ONE and not permit my image to be used for publicity. WYR go skiing or tubing?
skiing, I always wanted to see how it felt like.WRY be the president for the week or the mayor for a month?
