If… (Week 84)

This is week eighty-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 had to murder someone, how would you do it?

Cleverly make someone think they want to murder them instead and let them do it.

If you had commit suicide by jumping from a tall height, where would you do it?

Oh God. All I can think of when I hear about things like this is the people who jumped from the WTC. Out of all the horrific images that came out of that event, the people jumping are the images that most deeply affected me and literally made me physically ill. The idea of jumping to my death is terrifying. But if you’re going to do it, might as well do it big. So, from a plane and I would “forget” to open the parachute. And pray it didn’t automatically open when it hit that altitude where it it supposed to do that.

If you could choose the very last thing you will see before death, what would it be?

Wow. What’s with all the morbid questions today? The face of a loved one. Reassuring me that things will be ok.

If you had to trade houses with someone you know, who would it be?

I live in NYC and everyone I know who has a place I’ve been to lives in an apartment. The only friend I have who lives in a house that I’ve personally seen is Rodney or Michael. And Rodney lives in New Jersey, so he loses automatically. I will take Michael’s house.

Those are my answers to this week’s questions. What are yours?
