* Get along with your parent(s): Depends on the subject.
* Like thunderstorms: Yes, they're very cool.
* Play an instrument: No, but I wish I had taken lessons back when I was a kid. I did "play" in the elementary school band, but I don't count that since I didn't really learn anything. I want to play the guitar like Chrissy Hynde!
LAYER 4: In the past month have you…
