PROMPT: Live Performance

What was the last live performance you saw?

Belly dancers doing a series of experimental pieces fusing modern dance with multiple forms of traditional belly dance.

PROMPT: Brands

What are your favorite brands and why?

The ones that offer the best value for the money at a given time. I have no brand loyalty, and — in fact — find it to be an absurd concept. It’s corporate hacking of humanity’s proclivity for tribalism in service of profit-maximization.

PROMPT: Elections

Do you vote in political elections?

Not as religiously as I did in my youth. Counter to the general trend of younger people hollering and protesting but not showing up to the polls, and thus not influencing change because politicians are cued into to the older crowd that tends to show up hell or high water.

PROMPT: Most Productive

When do you feel most productive?

When the internet is down.

PROMPT: One Positive Change

Daily writing prompt
Describe one positive change you have made in your life.

After transitioning from tighty-whities, through boxers, and on to the boxer-brief, I think I have finally found the path to downstairs bliss.

PROMPT: Pets

What animals make the best/worst pets?

BEST: Dogs (but house-cats if one is of a less energetic / more lazy persuasion.)

WORST: Hippopotamus / Rhinoceros tie

PROMPT: Unique

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

Genetic code and life story.

PROMPT: Named After

If you could have something named after you, what would it be?

Maybe an atomic bomb. It would be nice to get in the last word.

PROMPT: Laugh

What makes you laugh?

Humor… and video of skater kids busting their nards failing astride a railing.

PROMPT: Five-Year-Old

Daily writing prompt
When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I suspect that was my early Racecar Driver period (possibly late-Cowboy.) But I can barely remember what I had for lunch yesterday…
