bearshorty23 Would you like to have lived in Ancient Rome? What if you didn't get to choose which class of citizen you were would you take the chance?
I wouldn't mind a quick visit like a tourist but I wouldn't want to live there.
24 Do you lie to your dentist about how often you brush and/or floss your teeth?
My dentist didn't ask last time but I always brush twice a day. I don't really floss consistently though but I don't lie about it.
25 Do you have a switch in your house that apparently does nothing? Do you fear that it might actually do something that you aren't aware of? What do you fear it might do?
No. I don't have a switch that does nothing.
26 What was the most useful thing an elderly relative taught you? Have you taught anyone else?
I can't really think of anything. My grandmother Tanya was a general example to me because she was a wonderful woman. I don't remember direct lessons but she taught me indirectly on what a good kind person should be like. I hope I'm teaching my kids that indirectly as well.
I taught college students history and writing and I hope those skills prove useful to them.
27 Do you have something that you borrowed (or was left at your house) that you know who it belongs to but not how to return it?
Yes. I have a couple of Farscape DVDs that belong to my friend Nicola from grad school but I'm not in touch with her now so I can't return them.
28 Would you be screwed if the internet stopped working? Could you cope if it went down for a day? A week? Forever?
It would suck since I'm used to looking stuff up on it and I love my internet friends and general communication but of course I could cope. I remember living before internet and there is access to the library to look stuff up. But I do like having internet.
29 What's the best town ending in 'ford'?
Oxford
30 Have you ever picked up a randomly ringing phone in a public phone box?
No
