Oops.... We did the same one. Robin Williams, no contest. George Carlin was the only of his peers to be close.

Originally thought of calling himself thighmaster because of his love of Suzanne Somers.
Manga's are comics from Japan. If I say comic book it means I like both! Ha Ha Dr. Hyde, put that one in your pipe and smoke it!!


What is more annoying, someone who asks you to choose between two thing that are the same or someone who gives them a hard time because they did it?
I was a fun drunk, but haven't imbibed that much since the early 90's.


If there were no legal consequences, would you choose alcohol or marijuana?
Tesseract, the more dimensions I get to play with the more I like it.


Do you pay attention to which hand is a person's dominate hand? (This isn't as dumb a question as it may seem, it has been used to start lectures on why there is hope for our future.)
Depends, you didn't specify in a theater or at home. Friend at theater and home with lover. (a Santa kind of Movie, you know, something naughty would be nice)

Puns, are they funny or irritating?
I'm a Jack drinker (when I was allowed), but if I only had those chooses screwdriver. Can the hold the orange juice, I'd rather drink it straight.


Ice tea or herbal tea?
We dangle one person over the side of the ship by his feet off the coast of Maryland. He had been a bad roommate, but he did much better after that.


Are you ticklish?
“Maybe they know what I know, that the true way to a man's heart is six inches of metal between his ribs. Sometimes four inches will do the job, but to be really sure, I like to have six. Funny how phallic objects are always more useful the bigger they are.
Anyone who tells you size doesn't matter has been seeing too many small knives.” ― Anita Blake (fictional character by Laurell K. Hamilton), Narcissus in Chains
I can't believe no one got this one. I waited 3 days to give everyone a chance. Young Frankenstein (1974). What a great, great funny movie!


Don't go crazy on this one. (pun as a hint)

"A boy's best friend is his mother."
Scotsman. I spent a few years in Scotland and they were wonderful years. The people were great.


Which juice do you prefer, orange or grapefruit?
Inuit, specifically from the Inupiatun dialect.

If you could have dinner and talk afterwards for the rest of the evening with one fictional character, who would it be?
What is the difference between writing beautiful soul-searching verse about my love, and rhyming about cutting wool off sheep?

One is sheer poetry and the other shear poetry.
No.


Have you ever thought that you had to be adopted, because there is no way you are like those people who claim to be your parents?
Larry that was a hard one for me. 'Laura' (1944)

Rebel, I'm not sure. I thought I heard lines like that on a new DVD my grandkids were watching. I think it might be 'Frozen', but I'm not sure.

Here is an easy one, but it does have a twist.

"Greed, for lack of a better word, is good."

This scene was in the trailer and was edited. It says "Greed is good."
'No Bigger Than My Hand' is my favorite. For me that was easy, it is on my all-time favorites list.


Honesty that makes you hurt, or lies that make you feel better?
Clarinet

Sorry, but I have to break the rules for this one because you must have the choice of three instead of two.

Greatest trumpet player ever: Louis Armstrong (Satchmo), Miles Dewey Davis III, or John Birks (Dizzy) Gillespie
'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' (1975) by Randle Patrick "Mac" McMurphy (Jack Nicholson)


"Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer." Hint: this movie was released in late 1974.
Today I am going to watch Stargate SG-1 and a movie (10 Items or less I think), write a little, have lunch with my oldest son, read a few stories on site, and do housework until my boss... I mean wife gets home. Today is my last day on Earth as far as I know. I'm hoping for more, but you never know. You must live each day like your last. Seize the day and suck the marrow out of the bone of life. It may seem like a tame boring day, but I have come to find that the greatest pleasures can come from the simplest acts.

That was a great question, so let's do it again. What would you do on your last day on earth?
No. Pessimistic is not the same as pragmatic, when you expect realistic results despite your prospective.


If people who had no intent to do for themselves, but for everyone as a whole, were honest uncompromising idealist and they controlled the world, what would happen?
The 'social norm' does not exist. It is simply a construct to discuss and contemplate the social structure and it meanings and variations. In a place that has 100 households, if 50 have one person and 50 have three persons, then the normal number of people would be 2 persons per household, but obviously that isn't normal it is only an average (statistically). Behavior norms can be viewed in a similar fashion. What is normal is very skewed by viewpoint/prospective. What is normal form one person's prospective may be aberrant from another person's prospective, yet a third person may consider neither, both or any combination as normal. What we as individuals consider 'normal' changes quite often based upon are present lifestyle and environment. For example, I worked in a position that my office was in a building with no windows. We weren't suppose to leave the building during the workday. I worked long hours (does that make me stupid or dedicated, and is there a difference), thus I arrived before sunrise and left after sunset. I went almost 16 months under those conditions. By then, being out in the sunlight was very strange to me. I didn't feel comfortable. It was no longer normal to me. There is no normal, just as there is no good or evil; it is all a matter of prospective from each persons point of view. You can assign averages, but they are not the same as normal.


Why do we often hold other people's opinions above our own?
Black, but black is my favorite colour. You should get other opinions too...


So, what colour should Andrew paint his nails?
Green Lantern because he has a great oath he repeats when he recharges his ring. (this isn't the original oath, but the one Hal Jordan used)






Who was funnier, Tom or Jerry? (from the cartoons)
It didn't go anywhere. It's still here. You just tilt your head a little to the left, hold your mouth in the right position, and look with your heart.


Why is it so hard to do the right thing?
Strategic Air Command (1955) A real golden oldie. With my hero Jimmy Stewart and America's mom June Allison. Steward is one of the great actors of his era.



Taxi Driver: ...I've been driving this route for 15 years. I've brought 'em out here to get that stuff, and I've drove 'em home after they had it. It changes them... On the way out here, they sit back and enjoy the ride. They talk to me; sometimes we stop and watch the sunsets, and look at the birds flyin'. Sometimes we stop and watch the birds when there ain't no birds. And look at the sunsets when its raining. We have a swell time. And I always get a big tip. But afterwards, oh oh...

VLS: "Afterwards, oh oh"? What do you mean, "afterwards, oh oh"?

Taxi Driver: They crab, crab, crab. They yell at me. Watch the lights. Watch the brakes, Watch the intersections. They scream at me to hurry. They got no faith in me, or my buggy. Yet, it's the same cab, the same driver. and we're going back over the very same road. It's no fun. And no tips... After this he'll be a perfectly normal human being. And you know what stinkers they are!

Duct Tape Forever (2002) OMG!!!! Someone else who knows about Red Green!


I can't believe I'm going to give such an easy clue, but here it is;

"As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again."
Somewhere in Time (1980) A wonderful, often overlooked romance. It was said by Jane Seymour. Christopher Reeve was the male lead.



"Say 'hello' to my little friend!"
Iceland. I've met people from Iceland and known several people stationed in there. They all loved the place and the people.

Which comic book hero would you rather spend a day with, Batman or Superman?

And nice to see we have a Bestselling Author here on the Stories Space staff now...maybe you can talk Yas and Gav into creating a new badge for that...



What badge would that be Alan, the 'I won't be here much longer because I'll be busy making bunches of money' badge?
