Do you drink? I'm pretty much a teetotaller, but by taste, not by conviction. I kinda wish I could find something alcoholic that I actually liked! Any suggestions?
Have you had your appendix or tonsils out? Alas...at the tender age of 13 I lost my best sure-fire excuse for getting out of school: "Mom, my throat's sore -- look -- spots on my tonsils!" I'd figured out just how to hold a mirror so the light would reflect back in my throat and show off the offending spots.
Have you ever gone skinny dipping? Not to my recollection.
Have you ever been convicted of a crime? No.
'Dream' dream car: Anything chauffered would be dandy.

Favorite book: I suppose saying "The Bible" would be cheating, eh?
