| 1 | If only Jim were still alive, maybe his sons wouldn't have gone commercial in such a big way. My second-favorite muppet, Cookie Monster, is partof a "Got Milk?" ad campaign? Would Jim have approved? | For those of you who watched Sesame Street, who was your favorite muppet on the show? |
| 2 | My Mac has no command-line option; I don't need one, the GUI is so well-designed. For Windoze and Unix, I'll use the command line for some system-level commands. Microsoft still hasn't gotten it quite right. | If you are given a choice, do you prefer a Graphical User Interface (i.e. Windows) or a command line (i.e. DOS)? |
| 3 | As long as I like the food on the plate, I like to mix things up. If I don't like it, I pick the offending food out and eat around it. | When eating a plate of food with several different foods on it, what order do you generally eat things? |
| 4 | In a perfect world, society would provide the essentials. however, in a perfect world, people wouldn't be such jerks. Should I, as a "productive" member of society, help to provide stuff to the parasitic members of society? It's a hard one to answer, since I'd like to be compassionate to all, yet not get taken advantage of. | What do you think a society should freely provide to its members? |
| 5 | Gotta play the odds, baby. | You are given $1,000 -- no strings attached. You have the option of keeping this money, or of returning it and trying for $100,000. (If you try for the $100,000 and fail, you receive nothing.) |
| 6 | Money is only good if you're spending it. It's a means to an end, not the end itself. I like to think I'm living the "American Dream" of having more than my parents, and being able to give more to my children. I make good money, and I also work hard for it. If people ask how much I make, it reflects more on them rather than me. | About my salary ... |
| 7 | Do I have to suffer through ads? If I have to pay, I should be able to watch ad-free. | Pay-Per-View TV Shows - if we had the appropriate tech and billing systems to do this and you didn't have to commit to a subscription, please select the top amounts you'd be likely to pay per episode to see new episodes of certain television series: |
| 8 | I usually forget how lucky and happy i am until I hit a periodic "introspective" point. It's great when I realize, "Hey, I've got it pretty good, I'm still relatively healthy, and I have great friends." I feel very lucky sometimes. I hope the future will be better, but I could handle it being like this for some time to come. | Generally speaking, are you happy? |
| 9 | Gee, I picked most of them! It's interesting to see how most of the gadgets just help speed up normal tasks, not really do things that couldn't be done by hand. That said, I like having my coffee grinder, dishwasher, and extra-wide slot toaster. | Kitchen Gadgets! |
| 10 | So I'm using pirated software at home? The Powers-that-Be at work are phasing out the Macs, so the software they bought for me won't be upgraded or used soon. I might as well use it to get the upgrades, and then have full "official" versions. | Are you a software pirate? |
