[Call Me Wesley]

7. I'll play:

1. What's in your wallet? -- ID card, credit card, medical insurance card, various business cards, a little bit of a rosary; money will be filled according to upcoming events.

2. What's the biggest mistake you ever made at work? -- I accidentally dleted a whole day's work once. Since I'm my own boss, I spent the night being mad at myself. Then I had a beer. :)

3. Onion rings or french fries? -- I like both.

4. What's the dumbest TV show you love? -- I don't watch dumb tv shows.

5. What's the trashiest book you love? -- Uh, must be some Star Trek manual.

6. How do you handle it when you have to get along with people you can't stand? -- Compassion.

7. Does everyone HAVE to like you? -- No, I'm not offended if not liked.

8. Is it ok to keep a snake as a pet? -- I had a few when I was young. Honestly, I evolved since then. To keep exotic animals caged for your own pleasure is just adding to the extinct list. No animal lover should do it.

10. If you suddenly had just enough money to leave town and change your life (leaving everyone and everything except young children) would you do it? -- No. Because I don't have young children. If I had, my answer would be different. ;)

[rbnyc]

11. LOL to 10.

Best answer so far to 6.

And I have the same answer to 8. I had Boas and Pythons as a kid. Eventually I gave them to the zoo. But they belong free.

[Call Me Wesley]

13. They do belong free.

I took over some snakes when I was around 10 years old, because the owner showed everyone and got tired of them. I had a ball python, some corn snakes and a few mores, mostly all form relatively young people who got tired of them. Then I even had tarantulas and scorpions from the same kind of people who had exotic pets just to show off. They all weren't threated nicely, and the python, my biggest one, soon died because of it.

As I said, owning exotic animals just adds them to the extinct list. If there's a buyer, there's a market.

[rbnyc]

8. Is it ok to keep a snake as a pet? -I love them, but I think they belong in the wild.

10.

But recent stresses have made me look back with a bit of a pang.

No - the fewer people the better.

If that's what floats your boat and you treat it properly. But I don't think I'd have one personally.

A bigger desk (which in reality would just mean more clutter spread over a larger area) - gorgeous dark-wood antique jobby.
