Thursday Thumb Twiddler
1. If you could (a) prevent an earthquake in Peru that will kill 40,000, (b) a crash at an airport near you that will kill 200, or (c) an automobile accident that will kill an acquaintance of yours, which one would you choose to avert? Probably C. Hard choice to make though. I guess in a way it depends on the acquaintance. An acquaintance isn't a friend really, and if I didn't really like the person all that much, I might go for A.
2. You're engaged to someone in a distant city, but find yourself physically attracted to someone who lives close by. Would you have an affair with this person, if you knew there was no chance it would ever be discovered? No. I'd feel too guilty, even if no one ever found out.
3. If someone were to give you a $100 gift certificate for your birthday, what store would you want it from? Banana Republic or Amazon.com (so I can use it on the UK site and get all kinds of goodies!)

Thursday Threesome
Onesome: Blue - what is it that bums you out and makes you feel blue? The news. And being unemployed. And plenty of other things.
Twosome: Light - what is the light at the end of your tunnel? Hope.
Threesome: Special - who is that special someone who has seen your bluest of blues and your light of the tunnel? My mum. She's the best.
