Not right now, though I read one once.

What mythological creature would you most like to have as a pet?

A unicorn or pegasus, maybe, though I'd rather it be a friend than a pet.

same question

Maybe a Pegasus or unicorn also, but I'm kind of afraid of heights. :oops:

A one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater.

Same question.

It's a darn shame; I never knew what a "webcomic" was until just now.

We used to call newspaper comics "the funnies."

Do you remember a time when gas/petroleum was under $1.00 a gallon/33p a liter?

No, I don't. But, in response to Ezra, I was called "The Flying Purple People Eater" as a child because of an outfit I wore (and hated, and from which I still feel scratchy wool).

Do you think Mike Brady was divorced on the Brady Bunch? There's some evidence in the script.

There might have been an implication----but this was 1969---and even two people sharing a bed in a TV show was a big deal LOL. Believe it or not, the Brady Bunch was considered a sort of "liberal" show for its time.

I never really thought of Carol Brady as being "sexy." She was attractive and all that----but I just didn't have that spark for her. I never was all that keen on Shirley Partridge, or Laurie Partridge, either. I rather like Suzy Chapstick (Suzy Chaffee, famous skier), actually LOL.

Do you believe "The Partridge Family" was a "liberal" show for its time?

I didn't know the Partridge Family well enough to judge. I thought Lori was really old, wise and grown up. In my mind I thought she was "ELEVEN!" which, to me, was over-the-hill (past ten). She was actually about eighteen, but that number was just too high for me to comprehend. I must have been very young.

Suzy Chapstick? Now I'm curious. 8)

Suzy Chaffee was known as "Suzy Chapstick" because she used to do chapstick commercials in the late 1970s. She was known for being very attractive.

She was a professional skier who did not quite fulfill her potential. She became a prominent women's sports activist later. She was, definitely, not a stereotypical "dumb blonde."

Did you enjoy watching skiiing in the Olympics when you were little?

I didn't watch the Olympics when I was little.

Can you do calculations in your head?

Yes, quite readily. I was always a whiz with arithmetic.

Same q.

No. I have to use paper and a pencil, otherwise I can't visualize it enough.

What's your favourite magic system [from books, movies, video games, ectc]?

Ahh too many things come to mind again! Maybe the system in the Dragonlance series? I also liked the system of Final Fantasy 7.

What's one video game you can play over and over?

Same question.

That's always been rough because of my ADD. For many years it was League of Legends (yikes, I know), but I basically forced myself to play it until I got the highest rank (challenger) and not because it was enjoyable. I also did a stint with Black Desert Online. I won't ever be able to get that invested in any game ever again, but I really wish I had chosen something creative and non-competitive like Minecraft or Mario Maker.

What about, what is your favorite genre of game to play?
