If you were to pick any one handle and ask two questions, based on the handle's history of posts, opinions or stance on issues, what would they be?

Answers, while welcome, are not that important in this scheme of things.

Haha! You lost the opportunity to do much more with this... but the answers are yes and yes.

My turn now... I pick Impy.

1. Why are you picking on me for being biased?
2. What's for lunch?

Should have worded it clearly.

1. Am I colorful in Maria's opinion.
2. Am I interesting in Maria's opinion.

I think I am neither. I dress boring and I can be a complete bore if I feel so a certain day.

The questions do not matter (hey, experts are dime a dozen and I can always find the best answers easily on anything if I want to!)
For answers: Purely based on originality (not content!) U and DUT.
Ask them a question about anything..even a phone directory:
*U will come up with an explanation so funny, which is so out there..(*but with a grain of truth!)
*DUT..if "he is in his element" and in a good mood.. will create some poetic prose- quite delightful!
I like to read their responses for entertainment value!

nallavar = good person

You keep going back and forth between those categories, depending on the topic being discussed.

Nallavar is a good guy/girl, and kettavar is a bad guy/girl. What you are I don't know because I am not a Tamilian either.

i am not fond of the dressy, furry cutesy look. i like the plain hound look (no hair). beagles will also fit my own temperament i think based on what i've read about them. the family's concern is that they are escape artistes and might take off into the woods behind us chasing rabbits.

My cousin has a tricolor cotondetulear. Very cute and trainable. Honeybear is her name and twirls on her hindlegs on command! Runs into her cage for privacy. Makes a great pet. Needs grooming though or otherwise will mat. Doesn't shed which is a +. The beagle is equally a good choice and low maintenance!

Hope you are not on some Psych meds - this is what it does to some people the opposite of what is expected.

LOL. I work better when all other avenues have been exhausted and my mind cannot wander any more. At the same time, all the time that I do waste in wandering around, I am constantly thinking about my work, so that when I do get down to working, I have sorted out 30-40% of it in my head. Thus, it helps me speed up during my downtime.
