1. What’s your favourite Easter Egg?
Reese’s peanut butter chocolate.

2. Are you a fast or a slow reader?
Slow-to-medium. I try to savor what I’m reading. If I’m under time pressure at work, then a bit faster.

3. Thunder and storms or a nice calm clear night?
Nice calm clear.

4. What would your pirate name be?
Betty Swashbuckley

5. What’s the highest you’ve ever been (physically, not chemically!) without the aid of machinery?
Hiked up to (but not onto!) the craggy cliffs at Mohonk Preserve.

6. You’re at home and you hear a scream. What’s your first reaction?
If the scream is in the street, immediately look out the window – or if it’s in the building, turn off all sound and assess the situation quickly. If it’s at all suspicious, call the police.

And now the serious questions:

1. Guess who just got back today?
Some wild-eyed Micks.

2. Who wants to live forever?
Masochists.

3. Who’ll stop the rain?
Vince Neil

4. If you can’t live without me, why aren’t you dead?
I decided to turn over a dead leaf.

5. Do you feel lucky punk?
Me (pondering lengthy jail term): “In 40 years you’ll be talking to an empty chair at the Republican National Convention.”

6. Where did our love go?
I don’t know – but if you love somebody, best to set them free. If they come back, that means no one else liked them.

That was a good one. I should have thought of that

1. What’s your favourite Easter Egg?
Don't really have one these days. Like rubber soul, I'd enjoy a real egg more than a chocolate one.

2. Are you a fast or a slow reader?
Three speeds: slow for pleasure, fast for work, super-fast for insurance policy smallprint. It only takes me one second to cover the whole page and find the bit that says "sign here".

3. Thunder and storms or a nice calm clear night?
clear night, tho an occasional storm can be exciting of course

4. What would your pirate name be?

all i can think of is "Long John Lisna"

5. What’s the highest you’ve ever been (physically, not chemically!) without the aid of machinery?
I've climbed Helvellyn in the English Lake District, from where you can enjoy this view:-

That's 950m (3114 ft). On the other hand, just walking down the street in Mexico City you are at 2, 240m (7, 200 ft), but as I flew there, I suppose it doesn't count.

3. Who’ll stop the rain?
Starting with Central Asia and California/Nevada, the crucial question is, "Who can start the rain?"

1. What’s your favourite Easter Egg?

Cadbury's Creme Egg or Nestle Milky Bar (white chocolate)

2. Are you a fast or a slow reader?

I can read fast, but I tend to put things aside and delay them. I once re-read Nineteen Eighty-Four in three days, but then I started reading the first book in A Song of Ice and Fire, got about 100 pages in, put it down, have not gone back since. I suppose if I stick to something I enjoy I would be classed as a generally fast reader.

3. Thunder and storms or a nice calm clear night?

As the late, great Phil Lynott once wrote: "Thunder and lightning, goddamn it's so exciting! It hits you like a hammer - goddamn!"


4. What would your pirate name be?


I would be the feared corsair known as The Author, because I would compose my victims' epitaphs and then read it to them before shoving them over. Yeah, they'd probably welcome death!

5. What’s the highest you’ve ever been (physically, not chemically!) without the aid of machinery?

I don't think I've been at any great height. Up in the Dublin Mountains, maybe?

6. You’re at home and you hear a scream. What’s your first reaction?

Dammit! I knew I should have tightened that gag!

And now the serious questions:

1. Guess who just got back today?

Well, whoever they are they sure haven't changed that much...

2. Who wants to live forever?

Trump

3. Who’ll stop the rain?

The sun

4. If you can’t live without me, why aren’t you dead?

I'm working on it, I'm working on it. God! No wonder I left you!

5. Do you feel lucky punk?

Lucky Punk is a big guy, so no, I wouldn't dare feel him

6. Where did our love go?

The way of all flesh.

1. What’s your favourite Easter Egg?

Probably the suicide troll in TES IV: Oblivion found beneath a small bridge with a reference to Three Billy Goat's Gruff. Idk why, it's just funny to me.

2. Are you a fast or a slow reader?

Moderate. I read words as if someone was speaking to me. Or from a narrative perspective.

3. Thunder and storms or a nice calm clear night?

Nice calm clear night. Thunderstorms are usually the signs of an oncoming hurricane here.

4. What would your pirate name be?

Mickey Getsawaywithit.

5. What’s the highest you’ve ever been (physically, not chemically!) without the aid of machinery?

I once failed to make a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich. I'd done three weeks of grocery shopping that morning, and accidentally buried my jelly in the fridge. I was a rookie stoner at this point in time so I didn't think to eat ahead of time or do anything about the munchies. I put the peanut butter on one piece of bread, and then couldn't find the jelly so I got mad and just left it there and passed out on my living room couch. I woke up the next morning and my cat was eating the side with the peanut butter on it. lol.

6. You’re at home and you hear a scream. What’s your first reaction?

I shrug, ignore it, casually go get my tire iron, and go back to whatever I was doing before.

1. Guess who just got back today?

That'd be me. Hi guys. Been a while. Like pre-COVID-era a while.

2. Who wants to live forever?

Usually anybody doing a great deal of anthropological research.

3. Who’ll stop the rain?

This is Florida, the weather has a mind of its own so much that it's a meme: "No, I'm from Florida."

4. If you can’t live without me, why aren’t you dead?

Right, that's a trick question and a tautology: I'm already dead.

5. Do you feel lucky punk?

Actually, yeah. I feel lucky that my account was still accessible, and also that there's no kids on my lawn.

6. Where did our love go?

"What's Love Got To Do With It?"

Thanks ribbons. It should be noted though that equal credit goes to my army of 100,000 clones... oops! 99,999 - I told that guy to stay away from the window. Now if I can just figure out the legs properly...
