Is there life on other planets?
The Rolling Interview

Most amazing? There are so many things. Shooting stars that streak across the entire starlit sky so bright it's like fireworks. Comets that glide regally along their paths. Satellites. Planets. Constellations. Lunar eclipses. Other galaxies that can be seen with the naked eye (so long as you are looking at them indirectly). The Aurora Borealis. The stars themselves on a dark winter's night (when it's clearest) in the middle of nowhere. I loves me some night sky. 
If you were given the opportunity to travel to another planet, knowing that it was inhabited by non-human life, and with technology that would enable you to travel there and back again in, say, about 10 years (including a stay of a few years on the planet), would you take that opportunity?

" neighbor"...yes,,,she lost her husband a few years back and we help each other out. The neighbor across the street is moving out, i noticed today. To bad, i liked them. The other neighbor is moving also. Has had their house for sale for almost a year now. Looks like they may have finally sold. Good for them ( i guess).

If she withdrew from exaltation, she would be forced to think- And every thought led to fear and contradictions; to dilemmas for which she was unprepared.

Yes.
I watch the DVDs that Target has in their "See Spot Save" section for $1.00. When they go 75% off, I clean them out of kid appropriate titles for 25 cents each. I generally come home with 100 DVDs.
I then give each trick-or-treater a DVD instead of candy for their treat when they knock on the door.
Why, oh why, do I always have an answer for this thread, but don't reply much because I can never think of a question to ask?

Menolly: Hmm, I think that's the reason I don't answer as often as I could, either... 
lurch: Yes. But sometimes it's talking about the day before.
What's your favorite Halloween memory?

I think it was when my sister and I were just over the age for trick or treating. My grandma and grandpa lived next door and my mom said how much of a kick my grandpa got out of seeing us dress up. So, we scrambled around the house to make up two costumes (I was a cowgirl) and went to see my grandparents and a few other aunts and uncles. It was just on the spot and fun to do it knowing this is the last time. Wonder if my sister remembers that....
Have you ever gone to a Haunted House?

A few times. They don't really bother me. I think it's because I know something is going to happen, so it's not very surprising for me.
Although the one in the corn maze was amazing. Being lost definitely made it worse.
speaking of mazes, how well do you navigate through them?

I'm not too bad with mazes. I've played enough video games that I can navigate pretty well, and I have a pretty good sense of direction generally. I don't like mazes in the dark though. There was one spook house I went to that had a maze and then the next room looked identical to the previous room with maybe one subtle difference. That was a head scratcher. We went back and forth for a bit until we noticed the difference, and then the room after that had a different subtle difference. Nasty trick.
But Carla and I did a corn maze last year, and I felt pretty in control. Generally the rule in simple mazes is go to the right as much as you can until you get out, but these are harder.
If you've been through a spook house before, what was one of the coolest concepts you have seen?

Life is a waste of time
Time is a waste of life
So get wasted all of the time
And you'll have the time of your life

I was pretty young, and therefore easily freaked. But...somebody had hung a doll with a rubber-like skin at about head-level, and I bumped into it in the dark and screamed. Creepy.
One year, Batty, MagickMaker and I rigged up a haunted house in our basement for a Halloween party. My favorite effect: using a head-shaped pinata that Batty had made in art class, we set up an executioner's tableau. Batty dressed up in a long skirt and a shawl and sat in a rocker, muttering and pretending to knit, while either Magick or I (can't remember who at this point) thwacked a fake weapon down onto the "neck" of a stuffed corpse that had the pinata where the head should be. With a little nudge of the weapon, the "head" thumped pretty convincingly off, onto the floor.
What do you give out to trick-or-treaters: candy bars, the lame non-chocolate candy, or something disgustingly healthy?

I carve the same face on my jack-o-lantern as I have since I first started carving.
Do you have a pet waterbottle? Mines a stainless steel sig I've had for about a year now.
