[Hostile]

1. You win a free trip to anywhere on the continent, but you have to travel by train. Where do you go? San Diego. Short trip to a great place.

2. Name one thing you consider a great quality about living in your town/city. Outstanding Mexican food.

3. What luxuries, if any, do you allow yourself? Could you give them up and still feel fulfilled? I'm a common man. Don't really have any. I've lived in a concrete room with nothing but a cot, light bulb and AM radio and also in a motor home that if I showed you a picture of you'd call me a liar.

4. Toilet paper roll: over or under? Over.

5. Plans for the weekend. Funeral, church, and Championship football.

1. You win a free trip to anywhere on the continent, but you have to travel by train. Where do you go?

San Francisco or San Diego. I'd love to travel across the country without having to drive it, and I'd like to visit California. I was there in the LA area for a few days, but didn't really get to "vacation," per se.

2. Name one thing you consider a great quality about living in your town/city.

Nice people, great barbecue.

3. What luxuries, if any, do you allow yourself? Could you give them up and still feel fulfilled?

I get my hair cut at a somewhat pricey salon in Richmond. I go there, not as a matter of fulfillment, but more about having a stylist that I love. I had gone to 4-5 other salons before I found this particular guy. I'd never go to anyone else now, even though I only get my hair cut a few times a year.

4. Toilet paper roll: over or under?

Over

5. Plans for the weekend

Returning some cats that I was watching to their Mom and Dad, who lost their rental house in a fire. They are moving into their new place today and will be meeting me tomorrow to pick up the cats, after they are mostly settled.

Watching football

Taking care of the kiddo, who is sick today and mostly likely will be tomorrow, too.

[DFWJC]

1. Alaska

2. Dallas has great sports entertainment: if you weigh every sport out there, few cities that can match it.

3. Flying 1st class

4. Over

5. Play with the kids, go to a party with my wife, football with the boys on Sunday afternoon.

5. Plans for the weekend

1. prague, always wanted to go there but never been yet. if i was to answer it for the americas, i know its north and south but you can still do it by train so i'm cheating, i'd say either buenos aires or montevideo. since they're more or less just across the river plate could do both.
2. the history
3. is beer and whisky a luxury?
4. over
5. quiet night tonight then through to glasgow tomorrow. going to a ceilidh (pronounced kaylay - scottish country dancing in a hall, glasgow royal concert hall in this case, with a live band on stage) saturday night. its part of a traditional music festival called celtic connections. my mum organises tickets for us every year, 10 of us going this year, my mum and dad, me, brother, sister and our respective partners and the couple my brother and his girlfriend live with. turkish restaurant to start the evening then a bar to get some fluids on board before the dancing. then probably on to the nightclub my bro is a manager in till the small hours. all in all a great excuse to don my kilt. sunday i've got some studying to do as have a test tuesday on latin plant names.

3. Satellite TV, yes. Home computer, no.
4. Depends what the wife wants. Whatever she wants, I want the opposite!

5. Plans for the weekend

1 Chicago or St. Louis since I could get around without a car.
2 Dallas...the weather I guess
3 Good food and drink (coffee, wine, beer, etc). Plus a lot of books. No I probably couldn't be fulfilled without them, life would be an empty struggle for survival.
4 Over, underhanded toilet rolls are a crime against humanity.
5 Saturday morning workout, playing with my new coffee grinder, football.
