Reader Poll Monday

Since I'm not working today, I can get these out in a reasonably timely fashion.

1. What is your most prized posession? Am I shallow for saying my computer? Because I love electronic umbilical cord. My degree might be a close runner up. Not so much for its usefulness, but because it was expensive, and difficult, and I earned that bitch, dammit.
2. What one thing are you most proud of? My travels. I still don't think I've seen much, but I know I've already seen far more than most people.
3. What one thing do you regret most? That I'm not already seeing a therapist.
4. If forced to choose, would you rather cut off your own thumb or have your entire dominant hand surgically removed? Cut off my own thumb. I have good insurance and could still use those fingers.
5. What is your favorite dairy product? Cheese. Extra sharp cheddar.
6. Can you rollerskate/rollerblade? Yes. As long as the surface is really flat and really smooth.
7. How many pillows are on your bed? Four.
8. Do you have any pet political issues? Gay rights.
9. When you find out that someone has been lying to you and willingly hurting you (without even a hint of an apology) for 4 months, is it *wrong* to wish that some greusome and painful illness befalls him? Or that he gets his cold heart stomped on by someone else for the rest of his pathetic life? Oh, no, not wrong to wish it on him. In fact, I think you're quite justified.
10. Ask me something. What will be the next thing you buy?
