If you could invent anything, or see something invented, what would it be? What kind of technology should come next? Take it as assumed that petty problems like physical laws can be surmounted. :D For me, what I'd like to see...

Have you ever tried using ebooks rather than paper books? If so, what did you think? If not, is it something you'd be interested in trying? I got a little handheld PDA about this time last year, and since then I've been using...

Catachrest I honestly don't think they have to contradict each other. Einstein said something like "science without religion is lame; religion without science is blind." The bible contains all kinds of literature - history, fable, poetry, myth. I don't believe that every...

I recently read some news articles about how the Roman Catholic church has created a new way for Anglicans (those who wish to) to join in full communion with the Roman church while retaining their traditions and Anglican spiritual...

Catachrest One of my professors at university was really interested in what she called "brain based learning" - practical application of neurological theory in the classroom to aid learning. It was great - she had us writing notes in different colours, playing with...

What are some of your favourite cheesy or corny old jokes? The ones that make you just groan until you can't help but laugh? Here's one I love that my sister told me: A string walks into a bar, and tries to order a drink....

The simple things I do to make myself happy includes: 1. Eating ice cream and french fries. I used to dip fries to the vanilla ice cream (it taste like heaven!) 2. Dancing wild or playing volleyball under the rain with a...

Catachrest I like dancing to fun, unusual music when I'm all alone and no one can see me. It seems to be most fun if it's not the kind of music I usually listen to or sing to - for example, balkan music in compound time, or french-canadian call-and-response...

I'm considering trying my hand at NaNoWriMo this year - National Novel Writers' Month. Every November people sign up to try to write a full novel within one month. I'd like to try it this year, but I'm having a couple of issues -...

Catachrest That's awesome! I hope you have some luck getting a writing buddy. For me I think it might be dangerous to have a writing buddy - I'd wind up with a partner in procrastination and distraction. :) I wish I had a better conception of how much writing 50,000...

Catachrest I think that's one of the things I like about the NaNoWriMo idea - the point is quantity, not necessarily quality (though of course one hopes for both). I think you're right though, that maybe it's not something everyone can just leap into. I'm not sure I have...

Catachrest Congratulations on making the 50000 word goal - even if you didn't finish the book, that's still a massive achievement. I know what you mean about the emotional drain, even though I've never tried a project that large. Any creative work - art, music,...

What is your favorite sleeping position? Are you a side sleeper, back sleeper, or stomach sleeper? I try many positions during the night, but I usually end up on either my side or my back. I know that when I was small I was a...

Catachrest I almost always sleep on my side, hugging something (usually a pillow). I generally start out on my left while I do my pre-sleep reading, turn over a few times (unless I'm really tired), and wind up actually sleeping on my right. I like to hug something while...

Lately I've seen a lot of charity drives set up at store check out counters. Just before the cashier rings up your total purchase, they would ask if you want to give a dollar or two to their charity. Then you are put in the spot!...

Catachrest I usually say yes, as long as it's a charitable cause that I support. I waste one or two dollars almost daily on coke or snacks - far better that it go somewhere worthwhile. If I can't or don't wish to for any reason, I'll just say 'not today, thanks."
