Thanks, you guys. I have warm fuzzies stored up for a long time now. *Hugs you all*
I will endeavor to put quizzes and such behind a cut. I only post the ones I thought were funny/silly/accurate (?), or I thought the questions were amusing, and I usually try to say something about why I liked it. Or maybe I just liked the picture. But they're usually fairly harmless and for general public consumption when I'm feeling lazy or braindead, so I can't see making a filter. Hope that's ok.
So, the short ones first.

dipster - Well, he'd chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could. Probably at your head. Heh.
metalmensch - I love the rain. Since I was raised in southern California, which is mostly desert, rain is a novelty for me. We probably average about a dozen storms a rainy season, more during an El Niño, less during a drought. One or two of those is electrical. I went to college at Humboldt State University, which is the southern part of the Pacific Northwest (Eureka/Arcata CA), and the novelty never wore off. I used to go for walks in it in a wool sweater and a wind breaker and my fedora pulled low over my eyes. The only thing I disliked was one house we lived in that wasn't weatherproofed very well. I lost a lot of my clothes to mildew and we had mushrooms growing in the shower. I still miss it there though. I keep hoping there'll be an opening in the Eureka office of my agency, so I can transfer up there, but I don't think I could get John to move.
puddinhed - You can come visit anytime. Bring that guy with you, too. ;) Just give us a week or two warning - we suffer from CHAOS (Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome), and I wouldn't want to completely gross you out. This is mostly my fault, not John's.
megthelegend - Ooh, that's hard. Only one fiction author? I don't think I can choose...I love Marion Zimmer Bradley's Darkover books... most of David Brin's stories have a lot of nifty aliens, and he's a physicist as well, so his science is not far off either...Anne McCaffrey's dragons (damn, I want my own fire lizard)...Steven R. Donaldson's Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever, I never wanted to end...Sorry, the list is endless...I can't pick just one... aagh, brain melting, melll-tinnngggg...
tenbones, angelsmum and talonsage, your answers may require separate posts; it's nearly 1 am and unlike Angus, I don't have this week off, so I'm gonna hafta get to them later.
Thanks again. :)
