Not if you think it is worth $100 dollars. I would not pay $100 for any steak. I know people that $100 could be a tip. It means less to them so they would. Me I eat chopped steak. I can almost afford that.


Is the internet, texting, twitter, facebook and these type of electronic media isolating more people from real human contact? Is it a trend we should be concerned about if so?

Yet again one, that is not easily answered. Yes, it can isolate people in a way. People can become so dependent on their virtual lives, that they loose contact with real life.
The other side of the medal however, is that it enables people to broaden their contact beyond what's possible in real life. We would not even know about eachothers existence without the www.
It also enables people with limited or no possibility to go out , to still have contact with other people.
Internet is a tool. It never is about the tool, but about why you use it and how.

Late night chat on the 'phone or a love letter/poem left on the pillow?
I like to chat with my boyfriend several times a week.

I heard someone say they loved someone too much. Is that really possible, to give or have too much love? (Sorry so philosophical)

One of your most adorable traits is that you ask the nice, simple-to-answer questions, Molly

I actually belive that you CAN love someone too much: the kind of love where your own personality and character gets subsumed by your partner's so that your identity becomes lost. To me, that is unhealthy and a little dangerous. I believe that one should always keep a little bit of oneself back - private - from your partner so that you have that to fall back upon should the relationship sour.

I hope that helps a little bit...

Control freak or just organised?
Organized

How do you make a cat smile?
I'm not sure how to make a cat smile, but to make his Kitten smile, this Kitty tells her he loves her. She does the same to me, too. Then I giggle and blush.

Have you found someone who makes you giggle and blush?

Hell, no!

I think my feminine side is pretty-well matured enough for me to have a reasonable grasp of ther fairer sex's issues. I don't think that actually being a woman - even for a day - would open my eyes any wider than they already are.

Personality wise, who do you favour most, mother or father?
I can choose either for different reasons, but my mother, because she didn't leave.

Some scientist say that dogs have no emotions, but only imitate human responses. Do you agree or disagree?
I totally disagree. Even a chicken has emotions, anyone who really dealt with animals, specially mammals and birds, can tell you, they have emotions an moods just like we do.


What do you think is more dangerous, an agressively dominant dog or a frightened one?

A frieghtened one, do not underestimate the power fear can hold over something, and the irrationality it will cause.

Is fear more powerful then hope?
I fear Rebs and hope she doesn't bite me...

Is a ghost dead or alive?
That depends on what you consider to be a ghost. Some say, a ghost is lingering energy. That would make it an natural phenomenon, but if a ghost is a conscious being, capable of action and decision, I would consider it alive.



Which one of these two do you hold for true?

Is your heart true?
My heart is broken and battered and bruised.. and always true..

Is it possible to truly love more than one at same time?

Is it possible to truly love more than one at same time?



Yes I believe so. I'm in love with two people. I don't believe one is more legitimate that the other. It is not a lover or friend thing. I have two loved ones that I hope to grow old with. Personally I believe we have an unlimited supply of love.


How can you tell if a relationship is beyond saving?
When you are the one always initiating contact and you have to keep reminding them you are still there..

What country would you like to live in most?
The country I already live in.

What is your favourite ice cream flavour?
Rose flavoured.

Ice cream cone or in a dish?
Dish please..

I asked this once before.. if you could add a color to the rainbow what would it be..
That is a tough question. I think I would add Turquoise. And I just spent ten minutes looking at the palette of options on this page before I could decide.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colors:_A%E2%80%93F

Persian pink would be fantastic as well.

What colour would you add to the rainbow?
I know it sounds stupid but I would add white. White is the equal influence of all the primary colors. I know white seems dull on a rainbow. I just want a reminder that we can all be equal and still be part of something beautiful.


What scares you?
Quite a lot, surprisingly. Like meeting Aria for the first time, even though it excites me, too. The thought of having buggered a plate on the stove also scares me. I'm scared of things, but I don't let them control me, otherwise I'd be a hermit.

What excites you?

What, if any, was the most memorable book you read in 2014?
Quote by gypsy


What, if any, was the most memorable book you read in 2014?


Go Ask Alice. I started reading it, but haven't finished it yet, so I'm not sure if it counts. It was cool how I came to read it, though. As the old flooring was all messed up, we'd bought new stuff, and it was being laid. In order to lay it, we had to move everything in the room. My mum has a lot of books just in the living room, and Go Ask Alice was one of them. As I couldn't use the television or play any games, I started looking through my mum's books, and that was the one she recommended to me. I started reading it and wasn't immediately impressed, but it became apparent that it had potential. I really should start reading it again.

How many books do you have in the reading pile at the moment?

Looks up, wall of books surrounds me.
Er... let's not get into that.
Mom: here you have to read this one too!
