When I started college I was hit with a mind numbing depression that lasted several years and had to put my plans for world domination on hold. Once I managed to shake the depression by shear force of will I managed to get degrees in Physics and Engineering. Now that I am back on track, my plans for world domination are coming along nicely, the best part of the plan is the fact that nobody realizes that it is happening, MUHAHAHAHA! I have had my heart broken several times in my life but my motto is "Never give up, never say die!"

Salmon, my mom used to make salmon patties during lent and I loved them. Attempt to play Crazy Train on piano or listen to a piano version of Crazy Train on YouTube?
Without marshmallows, too much sugar. Riding for a half hour on a stationary bike in a warm place or riding a recumbent for an hour outside in the cold but with nice scenery?
Gas fire. I love gas fireplaces almost more than wood burning fireplaces and cuddling with a significant other is much more fun in front of a fireplace than in front of an electric heater. Smoked turkey or a pressure cooked Cornish game hen?
Really depends on my destination, but all other things being equal, a leisurely back road, especially if I am on my motorcycle. Two cats and a dog or two dogs and a cat?
EuropeNorth America or South America?

Of course I would enjoy an intelligent conversation with her, we have had many.
