Snacking tour at a night market.

PROMPT: Grocery Items
List your top 5 grocery store items.
I’m guessing, by mass: melon, carrots, milk, rice, and onions — in unknown order.

PROMPT: Skills
I’ve been learning to juggle. It’s an excellent skill because you have to fail a million times before you can be successful, and you can’t partially fail or fail in a controlled fashion. It’s kind of all or nothing. So, it teaches persistence and to be less prone to becoming demoralized. It also teaches one a lot about how one’s mind works at the speed of instinct.

PROMPT: Cities
As many as I can, but I guess the top ten list (of cities I haven’t been to) would be: Kyoto, Guilin, Rio de Janeiro, Istanbul, Hong Kong, Mexico City, Zanzibar, Lhasa, Santiago, and Havana. [Not necessarily in order.]

PROMPT: People Say
There is nothing that I hope everyone would say about me. I would wish friends to say, "He's tolerable in the right dose." I would wish my enemies to say "He's a mean sonofabitch." I would wish those who don't know me to keep their mouths' shut about me. I would hope salesmen and missionaries would say, "He's the kind of guy whose door is not worth knocking on."

PROMPT: Admiration
What is something others do that sparks your admiration?
Give anonymously and without expectation of having something named after them or gaining publicity.

PROMPT: Performance
With respect to giving a performance, not since elementary school plays, and I was not good. As for speeches, yes, a number of them.

PROMPT: Physical Activity
I don’t have a favorite, but there are several that I could not maintain health and sanity without, including: hiking, yoga, calisthenics, taiji / qigong, free movement, and at least one cardio (I currently swim and run.) I’m currently struggling with juggling.

PROMPT: Cartoon
As a kid, I would definitely say I was more Looney Tunes than Hanna Barbera. I particularly liked “The Road Runner Show” and episodes with Yosemite Sam. Probably because the violence seemed more authentic and characters like Marvin the Martian and Yosemite Sam were salable as murderous psychopaths. I watched Hanna Barbera, but it always seemed like softball by comparison.
Today, I would have to say Rick and Morty.

PROMPT: Less
Truth be told, the answer is reading, but as hardcore addictions go, the side-effects are better than with heroin or meth (and almost completely opposite, though it does sometimes make me sleepy.) So, I think I’ll go with social media, which I probably do less of than average, but that’s still way too much.
