Anyone want to answer the 36 questions

You asked and so here goes.

I would enjoy having a dinner with Neil deGrasse Tyson. Wish I would have paid more attention in physics class.

Only if I could be a Jonas Salk famous for doing something good for humanity.

If it’s a business call, definitely. Other than that no.

Breakfast at the campsite, morning hike, light lunch, afternoon on the beach, shower, dinner, campfire. Maybe another twilight hike.

Everyday in the car I sing with the radio. Not really sure when I sang to someone.

I’m taking the body of a thirty year old with the knowledge I have now.

Music, love of theatre and reading for a few.

The almost 40 years with my soulmate.

Living closer to my high school so I could have been in more things at school.

I wouldn’t know where to start, but it was our life.

I’d like to be able to do the things I did before my A-fib episodes. The medication keeps my heart rate too low.

No reason to want to know anything in the future. I’ll take things as they come.

I still dream of traveling. Have done some but want to do more.

Greatest accomplishment is raising two adults that are accomplished, responsible adults.

Trust in a friendship is valued.

Our honeymoon in Jamaica.

Watching my wife waste away in hospice.

If I had a year left; road-trip!

Being the go to person.

Accepting me as I am, listening to me, great cook, loves life and a perfect sex partner.

My siblings, cousins and extended family are real close. From a lot of things I read, yes a very happy childhood.

My mother was my guide in me becoming a caring person.

No longer “we” but I feel satisfied, calm and content.

Mentioned this the other day; my weirdness.

Everything, no secrets.

Same as the answer above plus caring, unselfish and damn sexy!

Getting caught skinny dipping at a five star resort.

Last cry was when my wife asked to be taken off of antibiotics.
By myself, the night she passed.

My partner was a good conversationalist.

Mental health. Easy to joke about without knowing how the other person truly feels.

My laptop. All bank records, investments etc.

My wife’s was the worst. Any of my children or grandchildren would be next.

That is a hard one as I can’t think of a personal problem and don’t have a partner.

Jesus...I need a nap after this.

** too many to list. Funniest moment?

All the world leaders!

No, however, if so than someone known for his Justice,
compassion and generosity.

Not always, a few handful of times. So that I can speak with confidence without omitting words.

Day before yesterday and years ago..

Mind!

Do you have a secret hunch about how you will die?

No.

N/A

My health, opportunities to do good, then my parents and then kids.


Wish could spend more time with my mom.

Becoming a good father.

I am a foodie, I love arts and love admiring old buildings and architecture, I love to laugh, I am prankster/ joker, in the most serious situation I could pull a practical joke so do not get annoyed. I love all my friends and family, so learn to be part of us, not part of one.. if you do not like one or they do not like you does not mean I have to say good by to them. Lean to co-exist.

N/A

Share an embarrassing moment in your life.
Too many to share. lol lol

Few weeks ago, by myself.

N/A

Someones' life and death issue, kids illness, atrocities and injustice in this world.

What they did to me and my loved ones did come back to haunt, Karma was my biggest revenge, and they still did not realize…what a shame,

My kids and parents pictures/my Govt IDs, so life can restart without hiccups.

My dad…very long and person story. But it hit me hardest.
Imaginary partner, I want to buy this business, however, it may mean taking on large loans against the house/property, this is my dream business, there is a 20 % chance it may not survive and or make it and this been really bothering me.

This sounds fun.

1. I can think of several people I'd want as a dinner guest but right now I'd have to choose from a sports figure, a political leader, a billionaire, a homeless person, a military veteran, so on and so forth.
2. I don't think I would want to be famous unless I could use my fame to help others.
3. I usually know what I'm going to say before making a phone call though there's no need to rehearse.
4. A "perfect" day for me consists of exercising, reading, eating, physical attention, and quiet time.
5. The last time I sang to myself was, not surprisingly, in the shower. I've never sung to someone else.
6. If I live to be 90 I would rather have the mind of a 30-year-old instead of the body. That's a complete turnaround of thought from when I was 30.
7. I don't think about how I will die.
8. I don't currently have a partner. My last girlfriend and I had several things in common.
9. I feel grateful for everyday.
10. If I could change something about the way I was raised it would be almost everything about the way I was raised.
11. I don't currently have a partner otherwise I'd take four minutes to tell her.
12. If I could wake up tomorrow with a gained ability I'd would like for it the ability to let people know they are worthy of love and respect.
13. I don't think a crystal ball could tell me anymore about me than I already know.
14. I haven't dreamed of doing anything. I'm doing a lot now.
15. So far the greatest accomplishment in my life is getting over the destructive behavior caused by the anger and bitterness of my childhood.
16. I value trust in a friendship.
17. Three "we" statements: 1. We are all on this planet. 2. We all deserve to live well. 3. We all deserve love and respect.
18. "I wish I had someone with whom I could share days and nights."
19. My future partner should know that I will give you the benefit of the doubt. It is up to you to lose my trust and respect.
20. I don't have a partner.
21. An embarrassing moment in my life (so far) was when I was handed my high school diploma I was so nervous I kissed the principal. In front of everybody. He was startled.
22. The last time I cried in front of another person was at my grandmother's funeral. By myself? I saw a child die after being thrown from a car during a crash. I held back the tears until I got home.
23. I don't have a partner.
24. I don't joke about physical abuse of pets, women, and/or children. I don't joke about sexual abuse.
25. If I were to die tonight I would have no regrets about not saying anything to anyone.
26. The last dash in a house fire would be to save any photographs.
27. My grandmother's death hit me hard.
28. I don't have a partner.

That appears to be the list.

I didn't have an answer for all, but here we go:

No, I like my privacy. Being SW famous is enough for me.

Of course! How else am I going to get an appointment or something?

A nice meal, a drink and lots of cuddling.

To myself every day. To others hardly ever. (They tend not to like it.)

Definitely my body. My mind is supposed to evolve.

Statistically it's most likely to be heart failure or cancer.

My empathy.

Not receiving so much pressure to eat, or in hindsight overeat.

There is no way I can do that in four minutes. I recently wrote a ten minute presentation about that, which barely scraped the surface.

The ability to manipulate matter on a molecular level.

Surviving 😅

Respect and understanding

I would stop taking the monetary costs into account when deciding to do anything.

They have been missing in action for most of it.

🤣 No.

That was pretty good while she was alive, although she should have stood up against my dad more.

everything.

By myself when my sister's cat was euthanized. In front of others, I think at the last funeral I went to.

Absolutely nothing. There may be a wrong time for jokes about some topics, but something you can't ridicule becomes dangerously powerful.

My wallet. Getting a new ID without an ID is a pain.

My sister. I don't care all that much about any of the others.

I'll have to get back to you on this one.

That’s a lot of questions. I’ll get back to you. 😳

1: Jesus (The man, not the god)

2: Yes, for making sure no child goes to bed hungry ever again.

3: Yes, I don't want to sound like an idiot.

4: No work, and a relaxing day at home.

5: There's always a song in my head.

6: 30 year old body? 40 year old body would be ideal for me, with the wisdom of a 90 year old.

I’ll get back to you on this one, when I have more free time.

Wow, this would take some time!

Crikey, this is crazy…10 qs would be ok.😟
