Both, but never at the same time. And it really depends on location.
I think that it says that I'm either inclusive or indecisive.

Where was the most beautiful and memorable sunrise you've ever seen?
 
1. parents divorce moved from Boise to Jensen beach Fla at 6 years old

2. Meeting my wife, again in Boise, on a blind date....she's from Aarhus Denmark

3. Moving back to the beach....virginia beach...



1st pick in your fantasy football draft?
 
I'm a homer, So I'd go with CJ..... no. * sigh *. Arian Foster is the consensus #`1 but I think the loss of his FB and the improved Defense that Wade will bring causes his attempts to go up, leading to an injury. Also the play at QB can't suck that bad two years in a row. I'd go with Ray Rice actually, especially if it's a PPR league. Oh BTW, Arians FB extraordinaire? Yeah, he's blocking for Rice now.

If you could, would you go on a cruise? If so to where?
 
I've done a few - including a "Bellydance" themed cruise where my Turkish band was there playing music - free cruise for myself and family. When my kids were the right age cruises were a good way to be somewhere that everyone could have fun, and us parents could have time by ourselves to be "not-parents". :D
Of the cruises I've done, the Alaska cruise was my favorite - really beautiful.
At this point I have no desire to do another "Cruise-line" cruise.
But I'll do SCUBA liveaboards. I'd also do a very small (fewer than 20 passengers, a chartered boat would be even better) in the Agean going to some of the smaller Greek and Turkish islands.

What was your best vacation?
 
When I went to Paris and Italy in grade 11 on a school trip.

Also, when I was working full time for the first time, and I went for a long weekend camping trip to Mt.Robson with my family and neighbors. That, and going to Jasper with my girlfriend. There was also the work-cation I took up in Nunavut with my grandpa.

Where are you right now?
 
Sitting in my office which is on a rock that is spinning at over 1000 miles per hour which is revolving around the sun at 67,000 miles per hour which is revolving around the galaxy at 550,000 miles per hour which is creeping towards the great attractor at 600 km/s.

Do you like to go fast?
 
It's time to lift my spirits. I believe I'll enjoy a caffienated beverage.
As far as working out, today's a rest day for me.

Does your S.O. stay in decent physical shape, and if not, is that an issue for you?
 
Dammit!---Yes she does, & not so much...... She gained quite a bit with the boys and it took a good 10 years of work for her to get back to where she's happy about her look. I liked her look the whole time, before during & after.... I liked all the variety ;-)


Yoga? Meditation yes, but I don't bend so well after college football & 3 totaled motorcycles....


What would you do if you learned you had 22 minutes until the 300 ft tsunami hit?
 
Oy! I've always maintained that I don't want to be a burden, and a slobber bucket doesn't sound fun. But I have a responsibility to live my life. It's not just for me. I'd have to endure and pull from it what meaning and beauty I could.

Have you ever went skeet shooting?
 
Very much so. I'm not sayin' I'm GOOD at it, but I like to cook :D ( my gal and kids think I'm more than a passable chef .. but some things make them cringe that I LOVE! )

Do you have a meal that makes people go, huh?!? But you know if they tried it, they would love it? ( this assumes they like the individual ingredients of course :) )

{ I'll share one of mine. I learned it from my Latvian grandmother as a kid and I still enjoy it to this day. Ready? It's a mind blower :D

Ingredients:
Oatmeal ( I prefer the old fashioned, I like the whole oats )
Milk
Butter (REAL butter... margarine is 1 molecule away from being plastic .. I kid you not)
Sugar
Salt
Bacon ( The meat to rule them all!!! )
Vanilla ( NOT imitation extract, that crap is made from trees !! Get the real deal)

Make your oatmeal as per normal instructions. I add a cap full of vanilla to my boiling water before adding the oats. I make mine a tad drier ( with water ) as I'll be adding milk later. Fry the bacon extra crispy ( there is a reason for this ) when the oats are done get'ca a bowl of it, add sugar to taste, butter to taste and finally crumble the bacon into the bowl. Add the milk and stir it up. You now have a bowl of grandma's love.

Take a completely healthy meal and pork-a-fi it :D It is the best comfort food I know and a guilty pleasure that I don't have nearly as much as I would like ( for obvious reason !! :D ) }
