Yes or no. And that's final.

Very much so. Or so I've been told/cast in the past. Various U.S. accents (East Coast, West Coast, Southern, many points in between, etc.), French, Spanish, Italian, Irish, Scottish, German, British, et al.... and if I haven't already done it, I'd love to try it, whatever it may be. :)

Do you ever dream of living on your own private island? Nothin' fancy.... just... yours.
 
Hahaha, not exactly (I loved MacGyver!), but I've fixed a few things that seemed headed for the trash heap and managed to get more use out of them.

Have you ever gone zip-lining?
 
No, and just recently decided not to do a zip-lining trip while on vacation next month.

Are your toenails painted at this very moment?
 
No, I don't generally like flying, but I do it because I do like to travel.

Are you a Disney person?
 
No, not exactly. I'm not obsessed over everything Disney, and I haven't been to Disneyland in over 20 years, but I do enjoy watching certain Disney movies.

Are you dreading the upcoming spring allergy season?
 
No, because thankfully I don't have allergies.

Do you believe in ghosts?
 
Yup. Well, I guess. Not severe, though. When I lived in Sherman Oaks I felt the bouncing-floor tremor almost daily. And I remember being at my grandmother's house in Anaheim during a couple quakes.... she & my great aunt, little ol' ladies, getting in the doorways, worried about the mug collection.... ahhh, good times.

Even felt more than a few here in Michigan....

Do you prefer the term garbonzos to chick peas?
 
Not a yes or no question but I'll answer it anyway. I grew up calling garbanzos garbanzos, so that's what I call them now. It's more of a conditioned habit than a preference. But if I encounter someone unfamiliar with the word garbanzos, I'll say chickpeas instead.

When you were a teenager, did you have a photo of a favorite celebrity hanging in your school locker or a poster of that celebrity on your bedroom wall?

No, I never had that (my sister regularly changed the posters of her favourite rockstars), I was more into wild animals. Had a huge Indian tiger poster (from WWF) and later a bat poster (from a natural history museum exhibition on bats' behaviour) hanging from the door of my room.

The main reason for that was actually that it was a door with glass inserts, so if I preferred to sleep at night without any light coming in from the corridor, that helped (also made it more difficult for people from outside to peek into my room).

In that respect, the bat poster was better than the tiger poster, as it had a solid black background that served to block more light.

Do you secretly itch to spend an insane amount of your hard earned money on some really impractical but fun dream of yours, e.g. getting a Harley Davidson, a sports car, or making an incredible journey? (Additional not-yes-and-no-question: If yes, what is keeping you from ... just doing it?)
 
Yes, I fantasize a lot about buying or renting a mobile home and traveling all over the country meeting people and seeing the sights. But I don't have the money and it's just not practical right now anyway.

Do you believe in man-made climate change?
 
Mostly no. You'd have to cook and prepare it in a VERY special way to get me to eat it voluntarily. Barring that, if I was stuck on a deserted island with only Brussels sprouts to eat, I'd eat it, until I got sick of it and went looking for something else to eat. Other than that, yuck. :no:

Do you know anyone who was dishonorably discharged from military service and/or court martialed for being a conscientious objector?
 
No. I'm not that widely travelled.

Is your home or at least some appliances in your abode powered by renewable/greener energy?
