I heasitated, then chose to answer as best I could.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Do you have a personal hero? If so, who is it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My first real husband.  He was a farmer and a father of five when we met and he devoted every moment of his life to making his little corner of the world a better place for his children.  He married me to fill the void left by his late wife and never stopped showing me how much he appreciated me.  In a very real way he set the tone for the vast majority of my following years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. What is your favorite book of all time and what made it so fucking good?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Plato&#8217;s <em>&#8220;The Last Days of Socrates&#8221;<\/em> , in particular <em>Crito<\/em> where Socrates defines his respect for law even though it demands his life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. What does &#8220;diversity&#8221; mean to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Freedom and respect.  No more, no less.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. What is the wildest thing you&#8217;ve ever done?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oh, my.  I am not certain the provider&#8217;s TOS will let me be explicit.  Does scratching my way out a shallow grave count?<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Do you regret doing it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>NEVER.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Can you drive a stick shift?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. What&#8217;s the highest speed you ever traveled in a car?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>135mph<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Were you driving, or riding at the time?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was behind the wheel but I am not certain you could truly call it driving.  It was more of a desperate struggle to stay on the road.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Which is better: snakes or spiders?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Snakes- they make a better meal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. What is the most disgusting thing you ever ate?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oh, the possibilities.  Raw human flesh, I suppose.  It is not so bad when cooked.<\/p>\n<p><strong>11. Have you ever shit your pants? Be HONEST!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. Was losing your virginity an enjoyable experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Immensely, if I was actually a vigin at the time.  It was all so confusing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>13. Should oral sex be outlawed or encouraged?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Encouraged.  Silly question.<\/p>\n<p><strong>14. Name one man with a fine ass.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the modern pantheon?  Ah-nuld, circa 1980<\/p>\n<p><strong>15. Do you watch golf on television? If not, will you iron my shirts?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No and No.<\/p>\n<p><strong>16. Who is Martha Burk?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A very earnest woman with a chip on her shoulder the size of Texas.  She means well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>17. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Physically?  I wish I could have children.  Personally?  I would like to sharpen my wit and stop sounding so arrogant when I write.<\/p>\n<p><strong>18. Do you eat raw oysters?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>19. Are you claustrophobic?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No.<\/p>\n<p><strong>20. If you rode a motorcycle, would you wear a helmet even if the law said you didn?t have to?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No.  In my case it is somewhat pointless.<\/p>\n<p><strong>21. Name five great Presidents.<\/strong><br \/>\nWashington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Teddy R. and Nixon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>22. Name three shitty Presidents.<\/strong><br \/>\nGrant, Taft, and Nixon<\/p>\n<p><strong>23. Now call me fanny and slap my ass. Just kidding.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That will cost you $1500 in advance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>24. This is the 4th of July. Did you set off any fireworks?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No.  I leave it to the professionals<\/p>\n<p><strong>25. If you could have dinner and conversation with anyone in the history of the planet, who would you choose?<\/strong><br \/>\nSulla.
