| 41 | No-I can barely support myself. However, I'd like to see a reputable org ask for good used clothing plus household and/or necessary items like mugs, dishes, eating utensils that even someone like me would have extras of that I could live without and therefore donate. Everyone always asks for only money but if there was an easy and honest way to get other goods out to them I think this would be helpful too. The shoe store Z-CoiL is asking people to donate unwanted shoes. | Have you made any donations in support of the Earthquake victims in Haiti? |
| 42 | Thanx. | Have you made any donations in support of the Earthquake victims in Haiti? |
| 43 | Other. Many of these options aren't applicable to me -- like I haven't eaten out for years anyway; always walk/ride the bus, never have driven; do not have a home thermostat to reduce heat, etc. But one thing I did have to stop was my Netflix account because my rent continues to go up whether or not the economy is bad. The owner couldn't care less. I'd like to start up again, but would have to take the lowest priced plan, like one DVD a month. | What ways have you used to economize? |
| 44 | Yes, one can borrow DVDs from libraries. Just like you can get lots of different music CDs. Only problem is that some of the DVDs and CDs, having been used by many people, might not be in the best shape, but I've also received badly scratched, etc. DVDs from Netflix when I used to subscribe. But they will immediately send you a new one if it's unplayable. | What ways have you used to economize? |

| 47 | Homemade smoothies with whatever I happen to have at the time - today it included Italian parsley, romaine lettuce, miner's lettuce, chickweed, wild radish leaves and flowers, catnip, fennel leaves, red grapes, blueberries, and various liquids (now using hemp drink), powders (including unsweetened cocoa) and spices. Usually have coffee too but have run out of the pods that I use in my Senseo coffeemaker. | Typically, what kind of "Breakfast" person are you? |
| 48 | None, thanks. Don't like traveling. 7 or so miles from home is my limit and for this I take local public transportation. | Which of the following travelling adventures would you be interested in? |
| 49 | I don't like regular aftershaves, perfumes, etc. that get all the advertisements and commercials. To me they seem too watered down and manufactured, but essential oils are a huge passion of mine. I'll buy soaps, oils, etc. as long as they're pure essential oils with strong aromas -- like vetiver, patchouli, frankincense, vanilla -- most all of 'em. I also love incense but not those that they try to make smell like commercial perfumes. | What perfume(s) do you use? |
| 50 | Yes, a couple of local author friends said I was a good writer and good photographer. | Has anyone said anything memorable to you that sticks with you? |
