If you could eat only 3 foods for the rest of your life, what would they be?
Submitted by formance

To answer this question we must first analyze the question.  By three foods do you mean three types of food?

In that case the answer is:

French

Indian

Japanese.

Or perhaps you mean dishes? 

In that instance:

Artisan bread, mixed fruit (now I am talking about the GOOD stuff... blueberries, strawberries, pineapple, navel oranges, nectarines, no melon based salads.  thanks), yogurt, cheese, and nutella

Pizza  (so many options)

Something taco-esque

-OR-

This could be a reference to, specific food items...

some kind of fruit

bread

yogurt

but whatever, life would be so awful if we were confined to so few choices!  Thank goodness for OPTIONS!  Oh wait I am in Florida.  CALIFORNIA HERE I COME!  Then, then I will have options!

How have people mispronounced your name?  How is it supposed to sound? 
Submitted by Lorie.   

my last name is ruiz.  Reese if you say it fast. roo-ease if you say it slow.  not roo z not riz not roo as.  derh. and Virginia is spelled V-I-R-G-I-N-I-A.  It's also pronounced Virginia.  It sounds nothing like any of those other obscene things.  derh.

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?  Why?

One place?  bah.  I'll give you a few...

1. Sausalito- I live in this little slice of heaven for 2 years.  It is so hard for me not to live there.  it is home.  It smells

  amazing, I could walk to the headlands and hike to the ocean.  ah!  The sea!  Oh great love of my life, your salty breath breathes life into this desiccated soul.  I lived among the trees who's roots grew into my heart where tiny fern spores made their ways into my the tiny crevasses of my being.  The bridge became my pillar of strength... ever present and   It consumed me, and I became it. 

2. Vancover-  for many reasons.  It's beautiful.  Mostly woods and ocean.  I also have many

friends who would love to live there.  I like all of them.  I hear the riding is great there.  I would like to retire to a place like this, not too far away from a city.  I think the elongated days would be fantastic for being out doors, eatting late meals, and just generally living in the evening.

3. Paris- I love how these people encourage political and philosophy.  A car is unnessicary (though I do love to drive)

The architecture is amazing and i would love to learn french.  I feel connect to the french though the things that bring them pleasure, their leasure, their values.  The history, the sights, the people!  I want to enjoy all of the amazing things that the great open and unique nation of France has to offer.

How many computers do you have in your house? 
Submitted by Foomper.

My goodness, we currently have 5!    I have the love of my life, my mac book, my parents have a wide screen mac, my mom has an ibook, and for her sewing, my mom has a Toshiba laptop.   We also have an old g4 where my dad occasionally plays solitaire. we are computerrific.  Some days I think back to when we had an apple with
5 disk drives (2 internal 3 external) and  to play an 8 bit monochrome game of Carmen san diego you had to remove and insert 8-12 different disks at various points in time, but it was still so cool... now I am sitting on my couch in my pajamas running five applications at once without even the slightest bit of hesitation.  Proof that computer users should be women.  They can multitask along with you... unlike men.  <3 you guys, but seriously.  You can't multitask unless it involves the toilet.  Then all of the sudden you're multitasking machines.  Men: Don't answer your phone in the bathroom.  ew.

What is your earliest memory? 
Submitted by Megan.

My earliest memory goes back as long as I can remember ::wink::  I, aparently, can remember an event that happened before I could talk!  I remember being in one of those Johnny Jumper things, you know the kind that clip onto the top of the door frame, and having a toy.  I dropped the toy and asked my dad to get it.  Well I guess I didn't ACTUALLY ask him, but I motioned toward it and babbled.  He said the name of the toy and handed it to me.  SO weird.  My dad also used to call me kermit because I have skinny legs.

That was later, but I still find it amusing.  I still have skinny legs.
