Oops. Forgot about this.
1. Would you prefer to be blind or deaf?
Deaf. If I had a choice to pick, that is.
I'm very very very nearsighted with a bad astigmatism in one eye. But I could not live without being able to see. I could deal (not well, but I think I could do it) with being deaf.
2. If you could transfer to your mate the one trait that you possess that you wish s/he did, what would it be?
This one took a lot of thought. But I think it finally comes down to this: my technical know-how. I'd love for him to be able to "get" all the stuff I do with computers and VCRs and receivers and hooking up the PS2, etc. He could do it if he had to and had the time (and the patience), but he doesn't care to learn. Especially as he has me. (grin)
Then maybe he'd understand my desire for TiVo/ReplayTV.
3. If you could fly in a hot air balloon over any city in the world, what city would you choose?
Oooh, fun question! I always wanted to go up in a hot-air balloon.
But a city, eh? Hrm. It'd have to be an old one, one with history. Venice? No. Paris? Maybe. Athens? Possibly. Giza? Ooh, definitely up there.
But right now, I pick Cuzco, Peru. If we can drift over Machu Picchu as well. I'd love to see those ruins and the mountainsides from high up. Oh yeah.
