1.- We are relatively safe (or isolated) and oblivous (or peripheral) to most wordly events down here to have them affect things all that much. I suppose everytime some shizzle goes on bewteen US and some Middle East country, gas prices go crazy up...that's about it.

2.- I am explicit in what I don't want to do but I'll still throw an excuse here and there to not appear like the ravid asshole I am

3.- North, 80 Km - South, 955 Km - East, 1900 Km - West, as far as my swimming has ever taken me off shore. Dunno exactly how much that is.

4.- Company

5.- No. I feel, more or less, in control which is not the same (more specifically, I feel I have all the many many things that are out to f*ck me up at bay, thus that makes me feel in control). That is for most of my life. These past few months I haven't been in control one bit.

Insertnamehere:

1.- What is your ideal type of home?
Id really love to have a victorian brownstone near Fort Greene. But I also wouldn't turn down a glass walled, ultra modern Central Park facing penthouse either.

2.- How many light bulbs are there in your place?
Haha.. not including lamps, I have 3 ceiling fixtures. But Im not a fan of overhead lights, so including lamps and novelty lighting, it brings the total to 10 -(not counting all the bulbs on the string lights).

3.- On an estimate what is the percentage of women and men where you work?
For my museum job - 80 women to 20 men. For the library job, 70 women to 30 men. For the tutoring job, maybe 50/50. Education is a female dominated field. But I could start a whole other thread explaining why that shouldn't be.

4.- Are you a crazy animal lover as in going vegan and punching furr owners? Just a pet type of person? Or would you clean up the streets of stray dogs?
Im much more of a human person than an animal person. But I like animals. It hurts me to see when animals are mistreated, but it absolutely blows my mind when a person will show more compassion for a mistreated animal than a mistreated human.

5.- What is the craziest thing you've seen happen or seen posted in this site?
I've come across some crazy conversations. And I was once the unintended recipient of a photograph of a very personal nature. But I don't think Ive seen anything legit wild on here.


Zepplin1:

1: do you have any pets
Yes, I have a cat that lives with me and a dog that lives with my mom.

2: whats your favorite thing to do?
Learn by reading, watching, listening, and discussing.

3: Have you ever surfed?
Ive attempted to, sure.

4: whats the scariest thing you have ever done?
Maybe going into an abandoned building with friends when I was a teenager. I try to keep the actually dangerous scary things out of my life. But im easily scared by the idea of paranormal things.

5: Do you like hot tea?
Yes, I do.

1.- Climb through the steepy labyrith of streets and watch your legs get crazy buff while appreciating the nonsensic mix of Victorian households and archetypical Latino cités. Get a selfie with the Navy HQ as a background, go on a boat trip arround the harbor, ask me to cook for you, since local cuisine is nothing you won't find there in NY me thinks.

1.- I was both good at the subjects involved and I just couldn't wait for a multidisciplinary scientific job. Makes me feel all elitist and whatnot . But in all seriousness. I looked at the brochure, did some reasearch and discovered that it would fit me better than a tailored suit.
2.- Always been science. Wasn't anything specific back then.
3.- "Assassin". Doesn't matter if I get a cute bunny, a fluffly kitteh or a throat-ripping rotweiller, I'm gonna name it "Assassin".

I am typically focused on what I'm doing, and I can remain focused over long periods of time.

In terms of my immediate family- sisters, brother, mom, we are spread across three boroughs and two states. My extended family - grandparents, aunts, cousins, as far as I know we are scattered around four countries and there are many of them I have only met over the phone or through Skype or not at all.

I really care about the present and future of humanity.
