1201. Have you ever owned a record?
Not since I was listening to Sesame Street records, no.
1202. In some states people want to make it a requirement that creationism (god made the world) be taught alongside evolution in high school sciences classes. What do you think of this?
I have mixed feelings. I see the inherent trouble with teaching in school that religion is wrong.
1203. Should evolution also be taught in religious establishments like church or temple?
No, because the world doesn't seem to work like that. But it would make sense, I suppose.
1204. Can a person believe in creationism and in evolution at the same time?
Not in the strictest sense of both terms. I belive there is room for a blending of the concepts, however. All this talk of "intelligent design".
1205. You obviously like surveys since you are filling out a 5,000 question one. Do any of the following surveys sound interesting:
The Doors/Jim Morrison Survey: No
The David Bowie Survey: No
The Beatles Survey: No
The Rocky Horror Survey: Not really, no
The Labyrinth Survey: Nope

Backstreet Boys.

1218. If your pet dies, you can now have it cloned for $50,000. How do you feel about this?

1219. Are you or would you be embarrassed about buying condoms?
No, but I feel a slight awkwardness when I'm ONLY buying condoms. Like I have nothing else going on in my life. Plus, there's room for great comedy there. Why buy just condoms when you can instead by condoms, candles, a quart of gatorade, duct tape, seven rubber ducks, a wheel of cheese and a rubber mallet and make the cashier wonder what exactly you're up to?
1220. Do any of your clocks make an odd noise or play a song when the hour strikes?

Mila Kunis

Iron Man, but that could change this summer.

I don't give people flowers. It's terribly dangerous for everyone involved.
1239. What's the most deadly thing you can think of?
Having a full sized anvil land on your head from 30 feet.

Oh yeah, sure.

I could name a couple of students, parents and politician/administrator types.
1271. Is world peace possible?
Wow. I just talked about that a moment ago. On a large, superficial scale, possibly. But not upon closer inspection. Even when people aren't actively engaged in violence against each other, we're still competing in other ways for resources and power.

According to rumors, yes. Very much so.

Neither.
1291. Can a positive attitude/good personality make up for someone being less than beautiful?

Truth, steady income, internal peace, love.
