The Syndicate

The Universe. Not sure why, but it was an instant reaction.'

Pacino or Pesci?

Werewolves. I love canines, corpses, not so much.

Pacino or DeNiro tee hee?

Social injustice. It affects more people, and they make more strides in the medical field towards curing cancer every day.

Do you think people are inherently good, or that they have to be taught to be good?

Who?? Boyz II Men I guess, I am more familiar with them.

You're setting up the entertainment for your workplace Christmas Party; all you can afford is Vanilla Ice or Coolio. Who do you pick?

When I was 20, the city. Now, upstate.

No lettuce ever again or no condiments ever again?

Wooden, I push too hard and always break the lead on mechanical pencils grrr

Your dialect; sneakers or tennies/tennis shoes

National Park, a great naturalist has the brainpower advantages of an academic, and the great love of nature as well.

Break laws for a noble cause, or slow change within the system?

Gas. I can be creative with a food budget, but when the tank is empty, it's empty.

Regular potatoes or sweet potatoes?

Oh wow, hard hard hard question. I think the fur industry is abhorrent and that the way they kill those little guys is horrific, but life on Earth depends on healthy oceans, so I would have to go with the reefs.

Would you rather have an ordinary home in an extraordinary location or an extraordinary home in an ordinary location?

Dairy, I'm a vegetarian, not a vegan.

Best unbarbered sidekick; Chewbacca or Shaggy from Scooby Doo?

Hrm, Battlefield Earth vs Grease "I've got Chills" song (hey John Travolta is involved in both. I sense a theme)...

90 minutes of "I've got Chills" would make me more suicidal than 3 showings of Battlefield Earth, so I will watch the film 3x.

Talk like Jar Jar Binks, or look like Jar Jar Binks?

I flirt with yogurt occasionally, but cottage cheese & I have been together for far longer; I always come back to cottage cheese.

Wild canids; foxes or wolves (I ask this becasue I just saw an adorable video about foxes bred over time as pets; they are pretty cute)?

Stomach ache; I seldom get headaches, and I am a huge baby about them.

You suddenly develop a mild allergy to OTC painkillers; headaches or a mild rash the rest of your life?

The books were all so 60's cheesy kitschy (my Mom had them so I read them when I was a teenager), so Roger Moore fit the books better, but Dalton fit the character better. Really, I think it was Sean Connery.

spicy food; mild or burning?

DiCaprio; they are both pretentious, but DiCaprio in his prime is more versatile than Redford was.

Hepburns; Katherine or Audrey?

Unbroken; I did not like how Hurt Locker ended.

Comedy or tragedy?

Twilight Zone

Shawshank Redemption or The Green Mile?

Mork & Mindy

Original Star Trek, or The Next Generation?

Tina Fey

Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul?

Jimmy Fallon. Adam Sandler is a bit TOO goofy for me.

Tina Fey or Molly Shannon?

Phi Hartman. He had that same thing going for him that Bryan Cranston has. So tragic

John Belushi or Eddie Murphy?

Paul Bunyan. I have heard of Pecos Bill, but Paul Bunyan was much more familiar to me.

Paul Bunyan or Johnny Appleseed?

Morticia, she was my heroine when I was 10. She greatly fueled my plunge into an almost all black teen wardrobe.

Old Movies or old TV shows?

Oh Cousin Itt is adorable!!

Addams Family or the Munsters?

Ursa Major. Momma Bear.

Scarier: Hansel/Gretel or The Pied Piper?

Emeralds~ green is my favorite color.

Roses or Daisies?

My nephew Ian, in the Navy in San Diego. I miss that boy.

Kid Rock; Awesome or Eye rolls? (he is playing on the radio now, and people in the background are having this discussion, lol.)

Stucco looks dumb anywhere but the desert, I don't live in the desert, so stone.

A million dollars no one knows you have; keep it for you & your immediate family, or spread it around?

Aragorn. Legolas is a tad too pretty for my taste. The real question should have been Faramir or anyone else, lol. Faramir ftw.

Gollum; hate or pity?

Merry; Pippins obsessive compulsive possession re the crystal ball thingie was one of the scarier things for me in LOTR, believe it or not.

Arwen or Eowyn?

Halberd. It seems less awkward and easier to handle.

Double handed sword, or double headed axe?

Minas Tirith sounds much more grim, even without the grouchy old steward, so the Shire.


More terrifying; Smaug or SHelob?

Oh, Winterfell. No question, greenhouses & snow & talking trees & direwolves & BEARS!!!

The world of Harry Potter, or the world of LOTR?

Carousel. Timeless beauty I could enjoy in winter, when I am too old for a waterslide, plus if cared for it appreciates in value. Plus fewer people would visit me

Would you rather read peoples writing with spelling errors, or grammatical errors?

Water gun. Paint ball is silly, imo. At least in water gun fights no one is pretending to be a great shot/hero/whatever.

Barber or salon?

Mars. Better exploring. On the moon, you dig down through the moon dust to just find more dust. On Mars, who knows what you might find? The moon is a dead world, and always has been. Mars not so much.

Would you rather; do you prefer to the point replies, or replies with explanations?

Habitat for Humanity. It seems counterintuitive, but I have 2 heavily special needs nieces. I see enough of it at home, we do tons of enrichment activities with the girls, and it is frustrating at times since, while you can improve their quality of life, you can never really SOLVE their problems. Helping someone to build a home can, and does, resolve a need for them. I would feel like I actually helped solve a problem for someone at the end of the day.

Italian ices; cherry or lemon?

Ooo hard one. I had biguns for years, then I had a pug, and now a pug cross. So I would say little, but pug like; pugs are a lot of dog in a little body. I don't love most small dogs, but I love pugs.

Go back to school and struggle financially, or work a dull job with financial security?

Knickers? Like knee pants with cuffs? Um, no, long pants ftw.

Lilith Fair or Burning Man?

Hit for the cycle. Now if you had said perfect game ... I still probably would have chosen the cycle.

Henry Rollins or Jello Biafra?

That's hard. I think the Sex Pistols have more groundbreaking significance, but the Ramones have more personal significance for me,so I have to go with the Ramones.

Saturday Night date; the local Minor League team or a Big League game in the city?

I have heard Whipping Post (not sure about the other,tbh. I probably have,but it did not make an impression, I have never cared for that kind of music).

I Wanna be Your Dog or I Wanna be Sedated?

In this case normal is good.

Greco Roman deities; Greek Pantheon or Roman?

Dandelions, I love dandelions. Such a happy color.

Flower garden or veggie garden?

Black. I did that for years in my late teens.

Impressionism or Surrealism?

Goats. I used to have goats, and I miss them.

Green Eggs & Ham, or Eggs & Green Ham?

Anthropomorphic rabbits; vultures would probably strike more terror into the hearts of my enemies, but they would also strike terror into the heart of me.

Live with a group of people in Antarctica, or alone (like totally alone; no one else lives there) in Rome, with all the art, etc.?

Documentaries (unless it's the Mets, best case scenario, documentary ABOUT the Mets)
