So anyone else want to answer zen’s questions?

Good questions!  I liked ‘em...I may even turn them into a MySpace survey and make Zen world-famous.  For now:

Q: If you were a Star Trek character, what time would take your first alcoholic drink?

A: How can you calculate your first drink if you’re consuming them 24-7?

Q: You are invited to a large cocktail party at a country club in Zimbabwe. When you arrive, the room where the party is being held is already over half full of hungry lions. How do they react to you when you enter the room?

A: Wrong assumption...I never entered that room!  In fact, I couldn’t even afford the airfare to Zimbabwe…

Q: What would I find in the vegetable crisper of your refrigerator right now?

A: Vegetables...yup.

Q: If you could trade places with any other veternarian, famous or not famous, living or dead, real or fictional. with whom would it be?

A: Dr. Doolittle of course!

Q: How would you explain the things in your sock drawer that aren’t socks to your son in three sentences or less?

A: I have a sock drawer?!  No, I don’t…

Q: How many gas stations would you say there are in the United States?

A: Based on the fact that every one of the 8 pumps is full every time I pull into one, I’d say there is approximately 1 for every 9 citizens over the legal driving age that are on the road at any given time, minus the total number of passengers, divided by the GNP of Switzerland plus 42.

Q: If you could be any character in fiction, would you have a beard?

A: I don’t know...the books I read these days don’t have many pictures.

Q: If Hollywood made a movie about your life, who would play your mother?

A: My mother.

Q: Why do superheroes have sidekicks and evil nemesis have minions?

A: Because bad guys have better vocabularies…

Q: If you were a type of flood, what type of flood would you be?

A: Tsunami!

Q: Whose life would you save first, your children or the National Geographic Society?

A: What if my children are part of the NGS?

Q: If you discovered a lump in your yard, would you apply for medicare?

A: While I feel like there’s a euphemism in there somewhere, the answer is obviously not.

Q: On a scale of 1 to 10, what’s your favorite color?

A: 3.14159...I like pi(e).

Q: What is the temperature when it’s twice as cold as zero degrees?

A: Frickin’ cold!

Maybe we can set up these questions as a distinct thread in the General Discussion subforum. Zen or oddSTAR, would either of you be willing to start it?
