18) song

"The Mummer's Dance" by Loreena McKennitt

That is a pretty awesome song. just youtubed it.

21) geographical feature

Nude beach (!)

Good answer!

23) animal

Siberian (white) tiger

Good animal too. It's up there on my list, but I really like things along the lines of a panther as well, or a lynx. panthers are really cool, and lynxes are really cute.

Add the following:

24) Sport to watch

Women's gymnastics

I think I agree with you here. women's gymnastics or ice skating. one of the two. seems awful coincidental that the two of us would both not be into football/baseball/nascar type.


25) Sport to participate in
i like soccer. Does running count? or swimming? or hiking?


26) Ethnic food

Chinese

27) Fruit

Mango

Yes mangos are awesome! but that' a hard choice. I really like fruit.


28) Classic car

ugh, I haven't the slightest clue. i know very little about cars.


29) Piece of jewelry

http://thankyou.focalex.com/?aid=255234 ... 87&z=72022
that. never leaves me. was a gift of a sort.


30) Nonsexual body part of the opposite sex

Eyes. I really like pretty hair, but eyes have it.

18) song

"The Mummer's Dance" by Loreena McKennitt

That is a pretty awesome song. just youtubed it.

Did you catch the live version, or the studio version? The studio version is much better - and longer, at about 6-1/2 minutes.

21) geographical feature

Nude beach (!)

Good answer!

23) animal

Siberian (white) tiger

Good animal too. It's up there on my list, but I really like things along the lines of a panther as well, or a lynx. panthers are really cool, and lynxes are really cute.

There are so many beautiful and admirable animals, it's hard to choose one. If you've ever read Watership Down, one of my favorite books, forever after you'l have a warm spot in your heart for wild rabbits.

Add the following:

24) Sport to watch

Women's gymnastics

I think I agree with you here. women's gymnastics or ice skating. one of the two. seems awful coincidental that the two of us would both not be into football/baseball/nascar type.

George Will once said that football contains the two worst aspects of American life: violence and committee meetings. For myself, I prefer baseball; if it's not a good game, at least you can have a nice nap.

NASCAR? Enh. Give me Formula 1 any day. Now THAT'S driving.

25) Sport to participate in
i like soccer. Does running count? or swimming? or hiking?

I would think so. My own favorite activities have more to do with a recliner and a remote. Maybe a fork. Which explains my current physical condition, of course, which is execrable.

26) Ethnic food

Chinese

27) Fruit

Mango

Yes mangos are awesome! but that' a hard choice. I really like fruit.


28) Classic car

ugh, I haven't the slightest clue. i know very little about cars.

You're too young to remember the really interesting cars. In the 50s and 60s, cars had character. You could tell a Chevy from a Ford (and the year model) at two hundred yards, and a Jag or a Ferrari or a Deuce hotrod was a sight to be savored. Now they all look alike.

Couldn't access the picture, but I'll bet I know what it is. Sometimes the source of a favorite object is as important as the object itself.

30) Nonsexual body part of the opposite sex

Eyes. I really like pretty hair, but eyes have it.

I suppose I should have said "non-facial" as well...
