Depends on the bass. I couldn't find mine locally and I had a very good feeling about the one I found on eBay. Apparently other people did too because it ran up to the top of the going price range I'd found while researching them. It's mine though and I'm very happy with it :-)

Do you/would you buy used video games?
 
I really get sucked into Nancy Drew pc games. Someday I'm going to be able to complete one without a walkthrough and graduate to playing in senior detective mode. Sad. It's my daughter's fault. I have to play them so I can help her...

Do you like really deep questions that make you think?
 
My mood and the context of my day aren't conducive to either right now. Tomorrow, after my kids go back to school (and Mr College goes to work) I will once again strive for both.

At this particular moment, would you prefer a long walk in the woods or a long walk on the beach?
 
Is personal growth or spiritual evolution something you strive for?
Yes, actually. I find it quite relaxing to be able to learn something new about my body on the level using my mind. I frequently have conversations with the voice in my head and try and figure out several different outcomes to a situation, thus providing me with deeper insight on a topic I have never been involved in. I also think to myself, and have mentioned to others the concept of "that little voice in your head" and wondered if others had one. If people "talked" to it, or even argued with it in some cases. How is mine similar or different from others? Is this my subconscious talking to me? Is that part of my soul? Is it just words that form as a result of neural activity, and since I am just thinking, and not speaking, it becomes perceived as an almost "separate entity."


At this particular moment, would you prefer a long walk in the woods or a long walk on the beach?
EDIT: I would have to say a walk on the beach. Summer time is terrible for walking in the woods considering I have sweet blood and those little parasites love to suck my nectar. However, I do enjoy the trees and woods A LOT, especially when walking through a shallow creek. It feels almost magical.

Do you have any idea what I am talking about (referencing my first paragraph)? If so, are you able to explain it in your own words?
 
Yes, I understand what you are talking about. I'm constantly thinking about things and if something is really worrying me I find myself conversing with myself about it in my mind and hashing out different scenarios. And sometimes interrupting, contradicting and arguing with myself because the thoughts are coming so quickly. I've talked to quite a few people who do the same thing. I've been told that a hit before bedtime can control that and make it much easier to sleep but since I'm very allergic to many things, cigarette smoke included, I've been afraid to try. How to explain that one in the ER?!

Come to think of it, I guess I do this about non-stressful things too, just to figure out how I really feel about them and what I really think. Kind of like journaling but not taking the time to write it all down.

Did I type fast enough to ask a question of my own or will we be going with the question above my post?

Darn. Question: watching my son play Fallout 3. What would you think if you drove past a farm of 2-headed cows?
 
It depends on the results after I push submit...

How to explain that one in the ER... If Doctor's did not come across so judgmental, I would say I smoked some dope and I think I am allergic. Unfortunately, you would be instantly labeled as junkie because ya know, pot heads are future crack heads.

I failed again!!!!! - I do not necessarily believe in hell in a sense of fire and brim stone. I believe in energy having the abilities to go through phases. When energy is bad, it may not progress, have to repeat, or be deemed down to lower levels. Perhaps these lower levels are like new lives one has to experience and work there way up and try again. If failure to do so, they can get stuck. Also, if a person dies unjustifiably, or in a horrific fashion. I believe it is possible for their soul, their spirit to also get stuck - pretty much what a ghost would be.

Oh man... I cannot think of a question... How do you feel about this?
 
I would probably think that it wasn't tylenol that I took that morning.

I would probably say dogs, but it's not a strong preference.

is there a difference between expressive soloing, and mindless noodling?
 
Huge. Expressive soloing sound focus on a tonal center. The journey through the riffs should almost tell a story through dramatic moments, rests, climaxes, and a very nice entrance back into the song. Noodling is like saggy pasta. You can eat it, but you won't enjoy it.

Do you kill bugs for no reason?
