Interview meme
The last round of questions I answered was last July. Anyway, the rules are simple. Leave a comment asking me 5 questions - I'll write an entry with the answers. Similarly post an invite for questions in your own journal and answer them as people respond.
1. If you had to do a non-geek profession for a year, what would you do? Something that doesn't use a computer at all, for preference.
If only for a year, I'd quite like to be a chef or assistant chef. It would help give me culinary confidence. I feel I have the ability - I just need the encouragement.
2. Kittens, puppies or neither?
Kittens. Without a doubt.
3. You are at a fancy dress party and someone who is wearing a mask and whose identity you don't know invites you into a bedroom with the offer of doing some things to you that you'd really like done. Do you ask them to take the mask off or otherwise reveal their identity?
I'd require them to reveal their identity. I can't get into the right headspace with an anonymous person.
4. Same question, but the activities are only on offer if the mask stays on. Do you go ahead or go away?
That's a deal-breaker for me. I'd leave.
5. You are allowed to choose one book, which is to replace the Bible. It will be used in schools, churches and by devotees of Christianity from now on and all persons who have up until now been quoting from and living by the Bible will now adjust their belief systems to those of the book you choose. Which book?
I don't think there is any belief system which is univeral. If there were to be a universal book, I think it would have to contain stories and events which are thought provoking and encourage us to form our own morals, rather than telling us what to do, how to do it and who to do it with. I don't know the bible intimately enough, but though some of the stories are thought provoking, there seems to be spin on most of it.
Wow, those were interesting questions. I enjoyed answering them - lots to think about. Anyone else want a turn?
