1.9 to one of my jobs, about 23 to another, about 13 to the other.

Major illness... I don't think I've had a major illness since I was a kid.

[MENTION=23097]Insertnamehere[/MENTION]'s questions, cuz I missed my shot on answering them and Emiliano beat me to it.

1. All of my jobs are within 50 km of my home.

2. No. I find that to be dishonest. If the rules don't work in my favor, I may not obey them at all, but it's doubtful I'm going to try to "bend" them to make them work for me, even if I'm the one in charge.

3. No. I have spent the majority of my life since puberty dealing with sucidal urges, and my thoughts of death run along the lines of... Peace. Relief. Release. A few years ago I died briefly (before being revived by paramedics) on my kitchen floor after a home invasion. It was -exactly- what I had always anticipated it would be.

4. Illness? Testicular cancer.

5. I was diagnosed in October of 2014. I went through chemotherapy in January thru March of 2015. I had an retroperitoneal lymph node dissection at the end of May 2015, and have been tested every 2 months since then with clean results. It took until mid-August to start feeling somewhat "back to normal" after the surgery.

[MENTION=21558]Emiliano[/MENTION]'s Questions

1. Wallis and Futuna (Sold some jewelry to a customer there this year, or I wouldn't have a clue it existed either.)

2. Elliot Bay

3. Rainforests.... is that a geographical feature? Mountains. *LOL*

4. Vast. Mysterious. Open.

5. Australia... because things seem (at least from my perspective) to be very different there than here. The wildlife, etc is very unique to there.

4. Do you cook? If so, what is your specialty?

5. How many times do you jerk off in a day (or week if you don't do so daily)?

[InbetweenDreams]

1. Hmm..well I am notoriously a bad gift giver. Me and my sister have been collecting vinyl for some time but she never had anything to play it on so I got her a Technics turntable for Christmas... That one is up there in the ranks... I don't do scrap booking and things that have that kind of impact... Although I did take and process a lot of my sister's wedding photos.
2. Omission - That all depends on what was being left out, let's just go with yes because it changes what the truth "is."
3. Right now, due to my stupidity in buying myself things I do not need (sports car, surround sound setup) yes, been pretty tight.
4. I do cook. I seem to do steak and fish pretty good on the grill...like talking fillet mingnon and mahi mahi that type thing. I can do stir fry...haven't really tried a whole lot else.
5. Usually once..here lately for unknown reasons seems to be less.

[meridannight]

I could use my entire family getting in on this, instead of asking me everything (and then ignoring what I said anyway)

it is my opinion that that book should belong on the bookshelf in every household. it is an inevitability that all of us use drugs at multiple times during our lifetime, and people should educate themselves on the matter. not only to make it easier to comprehend whatever your particular case may be, but also, because you will become knowledgeable of the alternatives open to you and will be better prepared to discuss your treatment with your doctor.

of course, people can also misuse information if they don't adequately comprehend it, but that's a risk with pretty much everything.

[TwisttheLeaf]

1. I sat here trying to figure this out for a while, and I'm not really sure. The realization and acceptance just kind of all snuck up on me over time.

2. Almost always.

3. Shield and/or protect them if possible. Possibly also confront their aggressor, depending on the situation.

4. Country Western

5. I think that -technology- will eventually overtake the human race. I'm not sure if "turn on" is the right turn of phrase for it, as it indicates a maliciousness that I don't think would be involved.

I believe that science far too often weighs the "if we could vs if we should" argument far too easily on the side of "we can and are going to"; rather than appreciating a healthy respect and caution that -should- be inherent in taking steps in a direction that could very easily end up leading to mass extinction of the human race.

[Genersis]

1. Are you of the mind that you (and/or others) can make meaningful connections (friendship/relationship type of connections) via modern technology such as the internet? Why or why not?
Yeah, I think it's possible. Though people can sometimes be a little different in person.
But then I've only met one person that I first met on the internet, so...
2. What time do you go to bed on average?
I'm not too good at sleeping at regular times...
3. What time do you wake up in the morning, on average?
See above.
4. I struggled in school at math. What subject/s did you struggle with?
My final grade suggests that I struggled with everything but maths and science(Well, biology and chemistry anyway).

Though personally, English was the only subject that I actually felt that no matter how much I tried, I just couldn't improve.
5. Have you ever traveled outside your own country? If so, where did you go? If not, do you have somewhere you -want- to visit?
Portugal when I was...10?
Meh, too hot, didn't visit anywhere interesting(a cork factory), really just stuck to the tourist-y areas.

Also, Disney World Florida when I was 12; was pretty cool.

[Emiliano]

1. Are you of the mind that you (and/or others) can make meaningful connections (friendship/relationship type of connections) via modern technology such as the internet? Why or why not?
I have seen technology used to help people with physical and developmental disabilities connect with others and create bonds. And of course I think it can be very meaningful for people who don't fit in with their society in general to be able to reach out across the world and find people who are like them to build a community with.

I think when some people put down the use of technology in our world today they don't think about the people like that who can really benefit from it. For me, I think if I take it for what it is, I can have meaningful connections. I'm aware there's are people on the other end with emotions and ideas and that means something to me. Yeah not everyone is truthful on the Internet, but not everyone is truthful face to face either.

2. What time do you go to bed on average?
Between 11pm and 1am

3. What time do you wake up in the morning, on average?
Between 6am and 7am.

4. I struggled in school at math. What subject/s did you struggle with?
I think math was also my toughest subject. As an adult I think I view it differently and wish I'd had that perspective when I was in school - but I think I was kind of peer pressured to not be into math. And I also don't think the math teachers I had were super engaging or interested in reaching the kids who weren't already excited by math.

I think stem subjects now are super important, especially for inner city kids, and I like the ways I've seen them sort of packaged now - to take those subjects out of worksheets and apply them to real life, teaching them with hands on activities. I think if I'd had that sort of exposure to math, I'd have put more interest into math and probably been much more successful with it.

5. Have you ever traveled outside your own country? If so, where did you go? If not, do you have somewhere you -want- to visit?
I've barely travelled outside of my city, I've never been off the east coast even. I'd like to travel to the Philippines and to Haiti first of all. I'd also like to go to Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar... That region of the world. Papua New Guinea. I mean really I'd like to see most places in the world.
