1. Assuming money was no object, what kind of car would you like to own?

None, just like now
I once wished I had a camper, so I could go to India in it, and stay forever there like a hippy traveler
But really, the environment is more important than my childhood dreams

2. What is the security like in your building/estate/apartment/condo/cardboard box/wherever you live?

Doors and Keys

3. What was the first pet you can remember having?

Loulou, we took her home from the animal shelter some four years ago


4. If you could go back in time, what advice would you give younger you? And would younger you take it?

„Don’t smoke so many joints and go to music school sooner”
I probably wouldn’t listen

5. What was the best bargain you ever got?

That if I’d go to a music school, my girlfriend would buy me a trumpet
I did go to music school, but in the meantime we broke-up, so I never got that trumpet from her
It gave me the motivation to actually start learning music correctly, so I guess the bargain was quite good

And I actually got a trumpet from my parents for christmas this year

So all in well and fine

6. If you were the undisputed leader of the world, what are the first three laws you would pass?

1. Demilitarisation
2. Stop any space programs (the ****load of money that goes into it could be spent on much more useful things, like healthcare and stuff)
3. Guaranteed basic income

HAPPY 2022 EVERYONE!

A bunch of kittens.

A pair of JBL L200 Studio Master speakers for free.

1. Assuming money was no object, what kind of car would you like to own?

Ferrari Testarossa, gold or yellow. Because, you know, Ferrari Testarossa!

2. What is the security like in your building/estate/apartment/condo/cardboard box/wherever you live?


Our house door locks from the inside, that's it. Mind you, during the day if you don't lock the door from the inside, it can be opened by anyone outside. Luckily, we're so poor that anyone trying to rob us would more than likely end up leaving something for us in pity!

3. What was the first pet you can remember having?

Rocky, our Collie dog. He ran away, or so I was told. I remember him vaguely.

4. If you could go back in time, what advice would you give younger you? And would younger you take it?

Save some ****ing money!
Probably wouldn't listen though.
Oh, and buy shares in Apple. (Probably end up investing in a chain of orchards)

5. What was the best bargain you ever got?

Unlimited power, money, sexual prowess. I'm still waiting, but that guy in the red cloak said he'd be back. Mind you, that was thirty years ago...

6. If you were the undisputed leader of the world, what are the first three laws you would pass?

1. Covid vaccine is ****ing MANDATORY! You don't take it, you're sealed in to your house till you do. Supplies will be dropped in to you and you can take exercise in your garden at specific times, but otherwise stay the **** there till you get the shot. Anyone trying to escape will be shot. With the vaccine.

2. Hate crimes get you an automatic jail sentence of 10 years minimum

3. Anyone even so much as humming "The Birdie Song" will be shot. And I don't mean with the vaccine.

1. Assuming money was no object, what kind of car would you like to own?

A car is a metal box on wheels and I have always admired this vehicle for reminding us of that:

It's very basic but it's not OTT macho; it's discreetly rugged.

2. What is the security like in your house?

Pretty normal: never go out without locking up. Perhaps unusual to some would be the security bars on every window: standard practice here.

3. What was the first pet you can remember having?

A couple of cats which my mum fed and which I took no interest in at all.

4. If you could go back in time, what advice would you give younger you? And would younger you take it?

"Don't hobble your youth by being unnecessarily shy". I would have accepted the advice but been unable to implement it.

5. What was the best bargain you ever got?

About 20 years back I bought a second-hand bike for about 10 dollars; kind of racing style but without any gears. Still works fine. (Although probably everything but the frame has been replaced over the years)

6. If you were the undisputed leader of the world, what are the first three laws you would pass?

To fix the world of today? I think I need more than 5 mins on a Sunday morning to answer that one.

Hmmm... #5 alternate for me because it slipped my brain:

1976 Nova Concours I bought for $30 at a rummage sale because it wouldn't start. I worked for a towing co at the time, so I towed it to the yard, put a new set of plugs in it, and she ran great for quite a few years.

I always liked those VW Things, Lisna. Function over form. They were gunning for those Jeep numbers.

Ever thought of putting wheels on one of your containers, Plankton? You could become a car manufacturer. You only need to create one design, then sell it a million times over. Easy-peasy!

Been doing that for a few years now. It's not quite a container on wheels, but it does utilize some of the corrugated panels:

That's a surprise! Thanks for posting the photo.

I'm going to change my answer to this question:- 1. Assuming money was no object, what kind of car would you like to own?

It costs the same as a mid sized sedan, but it runs on Flintstones power.

So a green alternative to fossil fuels ? That's a great selling point these days.
