Because it's nothing but coagulated hydrogenated oils, processed bleached flour, carbs, and sugar. The junkier it is, the more kids will love it, ha!

Would you eat a whole, raw habanero pepper (seeds and all) for a hundred bucks or to prove a point?

I’m guessing that’s a hot one, so… if I really, really, really, needed a hundred bucks… then maybe.
And to prove a point? There is no point sharp enough.
(I may be dumb... but I'm not stupid)



As long as we are on food…
Did you ever not like something when you were a kid, but now like it?
And when did you start liking it.

My dad is a coastal Indian. Mom's a desert Indian. I grew up in the desert, but we used to go and visit my dad's tribe often. One time, my aunt (coastal) gave me a fried clam fritter and I got soooo sick! It tasted fleshy and spoiled to me - as does anything from the ocean. I actually spit up! Years later, at Skippers, I ate a whole bowl of clam chowder and liked it. I was so hungry at that time, I'd eat anything. And I loved it! Can't get enough of it now! So, yeah. Salmon and Skippers is the only ocean things I can eat. No shrimp, no octopus, no lobster or crab, nothing else will go down.

What is your first memory...ever?

Eather that really big quake in 1989/1990 whenever that was. (In California) Being picked up by my aunt and then me her grandparents and mom (who just got in form work) sitting in the main doorway entrance. most vivid detail is this little crack that appeared in our porch cieling when a knot fell out.

Or walking along the porch, seeing my mom sitting in the living room through the screen door. and walking to her.

One of those is first.





What is 42?

42 is the age at which a guy starts to realize that he's running out of time to do all of those wonderful things that he imagined doing when he was a youngster. Learning to rollerblade, getting an earring, gaining muscle, etc. He begins to realize that...no, he is not invincible, no matter what he thought when he was 20.

Am I right?

Well I’ll be darned. You were real close.
I actually found an answer when I googled it. I was only half expecting it. I don’t know if this is the right one, but it’s rather interesting. (even though I don‘t understand it all)


In Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, 42 is the number from which all meaning ("the meaning of life, the universe, and everything") could be derived.
A BBC radio script based on Adams' book contains the following lines:
("Cave man" lays out following sentence in Scrabble stones: "What do you get if you multiply six by nine?")
Arthur: Six by nine? Forty-two? You know, I've always felt that there was something fundamentally wrong with the Universe.
(Faint and distant voice) Base thirteen!
For the literal-minded and those unfamiliar with terms like "base thirteen," this is a number system in which the number 10 is equivalent to our more familiar decimal 13. A base-13 number 42, therefore, is the same as four 13s plus 2, or decimal 54. So "six by nine" (six times nine) or decimal 54 is, in base 13, 42. For the mystically inclined, 42 in base 13 is the same as 110110 in binary (base 2). This could mean almost anything, and many Adams fans have spent untold hours discovering all of the places where the number "42" pops up. For example, there are many mentions of the number in the Book of Revelation. Others have made a game of finding 42s, such as these:
The angle at which light reflects off of water to create a rainbow is 42 degrees.
Two physical constants in the universe are the speed of light and thediameter of a proton. It takes light 10 to the minus 42nd power seconds to cross the diameter of a proton.
The sum of the ordinal alphabetic positions of the initials (SPG) for Stan (P.) Gibilisco, an oft-published science and technology writer, is equal to 42 (S=19, P=16, G=7).
A barrel holds 42 gallons.
(It should be noted that all of these 42s are base 10, not base 13.)

If a tree were to fall on your car/truck, and no one was around to hear, would you make a sound?
And what would that sound be?

If there was nobody around but me? I'd probably be sitting in my car, in which case I'd make a sound like this: Oooomph!

If there was nobody around (including me), I'd still be making sounds because sometimes I can only breathe through my left nostril and my joints pop when I move. I sound like Homer Simpson in church when they're all praying and he's whistling through his nose until Ned Flanders screams: "Breathe through your *darned* mouth!!!"

Computers measure memory in terms of bits and bytes, Kb, kb, megabytes, terabytes and so on...so how much memory would there be in the average human brain if we tried to measure it in these terms?

Great answer!

How much memory would there be in the average human brain if we tried to measure it in these terms. Well...first of all, Is there such a thing as an "average human" ...well, anything? And, secondly, the answer to that might vary considerably by say, age of the brain, health of the person housing the brain, experiences that the person housing the brain has had, common stresses on the brain, ... like...children, jobs, driving...age, experiences, health. Sorry...I have no idea. I think I would personally rather not measure memory. And just be thankful that bad memories seem to fade and good memories seem to get sweeter with the passage of time. And leave it at that.

When you were in kindergarten, did your mother walk you to school every day?

My big sister walked me to school.
I was in kindergarten and she was in 2nd grade. Imagine that. A 5 year old and a 7 year old walking to school in South Minneapolis.
Can’t do that anymore.





Did you ever have to move away from your best friend?
