I'm a big fan of cheescake. My gf does one with Mars bars, incredible!!
My favourite book is "The Far Pavilions" by M.M. Kaye. It's about India in the 19th century and has it all: Romance, War, Action, Heroism. Pam Anderson Do you know the difference between Latitude and Longitude?

Longitude is LONG _ it goes up and down - latitude is the opposite so that goes around and around...

I actually do not own GPS but I know a guy that has it and it is really neat. Seeing as I like to do alot of mountain biking, hiking, and backpacking I think it would be awesome to have.
Do you play any instruments and if not what would you like to play if you got the chance? |

I have a black watch cap, which I really like, but I miss my straw boater from back when I was young and distinctive.
Google or Yahoo!?

Stargate or Battlestar Galactica? Why? |

Galactica all the way. It is character driven, and science fiction backed, instead of the opposite. Stargate worked well as a movie, and did well for about 4 of the 9 seasons that we've seen so far, but it lacks a measure of humanity. Every episode of Battlestar has been unequaled in entertainment history, in my eyes at least.

Yikes, this one is tough.....
My favorite tv show to watch is Sex and the City. But my favorite tv show since I was about 12 is Mary Tyler Moore. Because we're all going to make it after all.  What is the best concert you've been to?

For shesus, I've only been to one concert the Rocking the Corps concert at Camp Pendleton. It opened with Godsmack and I loved it for that alone. I wouldn't mind seeing another Godsmack concert. What's the best gift you've ever been given?

By regularliy changing a government, Democracy helps the balance of power and offers accountability. OK, that sounds a little naive, but it's the best we've got. All the other 'ocracies and 'isms that you can run a country with, put too much faith in the human nature of those in power.
What's a fun thing you'd like to have with you, if stranded on a deserted island?

Yeah, its one of the tough things that the government has to do; to be able to balance between freedom and security. Sometimes they can only go so far.

Believe it or not, Monday. I work 7 days a week, so that's not an issue. Monday is when I'm usually most refreshed and can actually sleep in a little.

Day of the week... Considering I've worked retail, and will be starting a sales position, Friday and Saturday are the busiest days. So I would have to so that Sunday is my favorite day. It's completely open for whatever I want.
What is your dream job/career? If you are in that career already, would you quit your current job if you found the a risky opportunity to follow your dreams?

Dream job wouldbe to own a smallish inn in the mountains of Vermont or New Hampshire with an outstanding restaurant in it... (menu by me). If I had the money to do it - I'd do it in a heartbeat - if I could get the financing (which wouldbe incredibly risky) I'd make sure i Had a solid business plan in place (I"m halfway there with it) and do it...
What are your friends like? They like you or opposites

Some of my friends are pretty close to me, alot of us mountain bike and hike and such. All the ones that mountain bike also play guitar (as do I). Then I have other friends that do neither and are completely different than me. So I suppose I would say I have a very wide spectrum of friends; some are like, some not so much.
Do you make purchases because you saw the item on a commercial or do commercials have little effect on you? |

I don't think commercials have that big of an effect on me. Billboards and photo ads have more of an appeal especially in regards to fashion. Commercials on tv annoy me so much. Or if they're funny I have no idea what they're advertising after they're over.
Define you style in one sentence...fashion style that is.

Comfortable, casual, and cute, the typical collegiate couture. Like my use of alliteration as well.
