    What are your favorite books?

    My tastes tend more to the classics, David Copperfield, Great Expectations and Les Miserables, for example. Check out H.P. Lovecraft's story The Colour Out of Space. When I was a teenager that one kept me awake ALL night.

    Am I the only one who thinks that guys who wear those skintight bicycle shorts...

    One side showing a realistic portrait and the other displaying your hidden self. Or do it as a cartoon, the things that interest you coming out of a screw top lid on your head. Abstract is also possible, just show the things you have an interest in.

    should we eat seagulls for lunch instead of chickens? they are everywhere....

    Humans eat just about everything edible on this planet. Who could look at a lobster and assume that eating it would be worth while? We don't though, eat seagulls. Based upon nothing but my intuition, I am going to assume there is a reason why we don't.
