If… (Week 74)
This is week seventy-four in my personal “If… Project” in which I answer questions from the book “If… (Questions for the Game of Life)”
There are 125 pages of this book, each with four questions. I plan to take one page each week and answer the questions as thoroughly and honestly as I am able. In addition, I invite you to answer the questions along with me, whether it be in the comments section, your own personal blog, or just within your own thoughts.
Perhaps in doing so, we will get to know each other better, but even more importantly, get to know ourselves better.
This week’s questions:
If you could wear only one color, besides white or black, for the rest of your life, what color would you wear?
Green.
If you had to eat in only one restaurant for the rest of your life, which one would you choose?
It would have to be a Vegan buffet. As of yet, I’ve not had the pleasure of experiencing one, but the closest I have come is eating at Boma in Orlando.
If you had to be represented by an object in your home, what would you choose?
I would have to choose my camera. The older I’ve gotten the more I feel like I’m able to look at other people, and myself, better than before. I don’t always know what to do with what I see, or how to change the things I see that I don’t like, but I do feel that as I am getting older, I have gotten much better at zooming in on what I’m looking at, focusing on it objectively, and then photoshopping the hell out of it so that I can pretend it’s completely different than it is in reality.
If you could have changed any one thing about the death of one of your relatives, what would you alter?
I would have made the death of my aunt actually do some good and help the other family members reconcile their differences and fix the problems that have torn them apart. Instead, it did nothing of the sort and only acted to magnify them during her death.
Those are my answers to this week’s questions. What are yours?

This is week seventy-three in my personal “If… Project” in which I answer questions from the book “If… (Questions for the Game of Life)”

This week’s questions:
If you had to eliminate a single art form from the earth henceforth and forevermore, which one would you get rid of?
Mime. Now, in high school I was named state champ in mime. I’m not proud of it. No, that’s not true. I am proud of it. But not enough to run around advertising it. But still, I’d get rid of mime.
If you had to name the single most important quality of a good mate, what would it be?
Someone who, even after years and years together, can always make you feel like it’s brand new.
If the world could henceforth have only one single art form, what do you think it should be?
Musical theatre.
If you had been the original designer of one existing corporate logo, which one would you select?
I kinda like the simplicity of the Apple logo

This is week seventy-two in my personal “If… Project” in which I answer questions from the book “If… (Questions for the Game of Life)”
There are 125 pages of this book, each with four questions. I plan to take one page each week and answer the questions as thoroughly and honestly as I am able.

This week’s questions:
If you could choose any six people to be the pallbearers at your funeral, who would you choose?
Oh my. I don’t even want to think about that. Right now I’m leaning more toward the idea of being cremated and so I don’t even think I’d have pallbearers, right? Or does that happen after the funeral?
If you had to repeat your exact life over again exactly as it was from any age, what age would you go back to?
Birth. The further back you go, the longer you get.
If you could find one thing, besides money, in your family attic, what would you want to discover?
An extremely rare artifact that is very important to history. That way I could do a good deed and return it to the nation and get a hefty monetary thank you in return.
If you could go back to any age and start a different life, what age would that be?
Are we guaranteed for it to be a better one? Or at least of equal value?
Those are my answers to this week’s questions. What are yours?

This week’s questions:
If you had the chance to make one purchase that you have passed up in your lifetime, what would it be?
Flights that are cheap when I first check them, and then twice as expensive when I go back to book them.
If you had to describe your idea of the perfect mate, how would you do it?
I’d open up an Abercrombie catalog.
If you could have been the producer of any single television show or series, which one would you pick?
The Golden Girls. One of the best television shows ever, and thanks to reruns in syndication, I’d still be making money hand over fist.
If you could own any single newspaper in the world, which one would you pick?
The New York Times

This week’s questions:
If you had to be a member of another family you know, which family would you join?
The Tanners from Full House. Hey, I know them. Too well.
If you had to choose living actors to play each of the people with you right now in a new film, who would you choose to play each person?
Well, I’m the only one with me right now, so that makes this a lot easier. And I’d pick Elijah Wood to play me.
If you had to choose the worst work of art ever created, what would you choose?
A picture of a bare tree with spindly branches backlit against a blazing bright sunset. It hung in my mother’s bedroom as a child and for some reason scared the crap out of me.
If you had to choose the greatest work of art in history, what would you say is the best?
You are the greatest work of art I know.
Those are my answers to this week’s questions. What are yours?
1 commentThree Years of Veganism
Today marks three years since I made a life change to Veganism.
It’s amazing how quickly time flies when you’re doing something wonderful for yourself, for the animals, and for the planet.
Three down, the rest of my life to go…
