RV. I love driving, and while I know how to boat and operate a basic cabin cruiser, I think a yacht would be too much for one me to handle, and for me getting there is half the fun.

I would be horrid on either, but I guess Dancing with the Stars; the hosts seem a tad less vicious, lol. Plus those pro dancers can make almost anyone look less atrocious.

Columbia. When I was younger, I would have picked Rapture probably. But in my old age, darkness (symbolic of death in general) is less attractive to me than it was when I was in my 20's. Now I want all the sunshine, flowers, chipmunks & birdsong I can get.

Absolute free will. I spent a huge chuck of my life voluntarily being miserable & dark, so I could not respect myself as a mindlessly happy minion of the status quo.

Re: Would you rather - -
Spinoza. Nietzsche is a good writer but his ideas are too transparently concocted from his insecurities and grrrrrl problems for me to take them that seriously. Spinoza I don't know much about but if I'm correct that his ideas influenced pantheism then he gets points from me for that because I feel it's a step in the right direction.

I had to look those up. It was interesting, thanks for making me learn something!
Perdurantism. When I read about it, it clicked with me right away. I don't think I have existed as a fully gestalt being at all points in my life, and do believe time is a quantifiable dimension along with the three normally recognized.
Is your nominal identity based on intrinsic personal attributes (i.e., male, gay, black) or society assigned attributes (French, Engineer, Student, etc.)?

Re: Would you rather - -
Interesting, mine is definitely intrinsic. I have only known one woman with a societal construct ("teacher") as her primary identity. But I have known multiple men that identify as their career as their primary identity, and at least one that identifies primarily as his nationality.
That's a tough one. I am not a person of faith and do not have any desire to surrender to faith, I *can't* take the leap of faith required for Kierkegaard. Camus makes more sense to me, and when I was younger I often let this kind of thing bring me to despair, that ultimately, all is meaninglessness. So although I *can't* accept the basic premise of the one, I don't like to accept the basic premise of Camus. But, if pushed, I would have to say Camus. Reality for the bleak win.
Rousseau or David Hume?
