10. I think you would just get wet. I don't like being wet
so I don't dance in the rain. I look stupid when I dance anyhow, and I'd rather not look wet AND stupid.

9. Yeah. Crazy.
10. I once starved myself for four days to make an Army weigh-in. That was too much to do on a regular basis, so I did the smart thing and took up exercise...

39. Let's see what we have here...
Have you ever been bungee jumping? Definitely not, I'm very afraid of heights.

What is your greatest strength? Does it sound totally conceited to say it's my intelligence?

Have you ever been chased by the police? Did you outrun them? Does following me in a squad car to make sure I leave the area count?

Which Shoe do you put on first? :shrug:

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? If yes, where to? Yes, any number of shitty retail jobs.

Are you emotional? I'm generally fairly reserved.

Are you a morning person? No. I'll get up early if I have to but I won't be happy about it.

Do you like to wear flip flops? No way, I hate open-toed shoes and shoes with no backs both.

Have you ever danced in the rain? I don't dance anywhere if I can avoid it.

Have you ever been on a diet? I don't know, depends on how you define diet. I've lost weight by being cautious about my eating and increasing my activity, but losing weight wasn't my primary or even secondary goal in doing so.

How old were you when you received your first romantic kiss? 12. At a hockey game, if anybody's wondering.

40. Some random answers
Have you ever been bungee jumping? Nah

What is your greatest strength? I tend to be a sympathetic person and a supportive person towards the people that matter to me.

Have you ever been chased by the police? Did you outrun them? No

Which Shoe do you put on first? I think it's usually the left one, but sometimes it's just whichever one is the first one I can locate!

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? If yes, where to? Yeah; I once worked at a movie theater and a grocery store.

Are you emotional? Usually, especially around those I trust. I sometimes choose to hold it in around a lot of people, but I find it's worth it to let things out as often as possible.

Are you a morning person? The morning is OK, but I like the night time more.

Do you like to wear flip flops? I do.

Have you ever danced in the rain? I've probably goofed around doing something resembling dancing in the rain, but I'm not sure if I've done anything that can truly be called "dancing"!

Have you ever been on a diet? Yeah, but really just some guidelines I tried to stick to in my head; nothing really official.

How old were you when you received your first romantic kiss? 16.

Have you ever been bungee jumping?

-Oh Hell no! No bungee jumping, no skydiving.

What is your greatest strength?

-"I'll think of something" I've learned that I'm hardworking, flexible, and adept in the face of adversity.

Have you ever been chased by the police? Did you outrun them?

- Yes. I was on the back of a Moto Guzzi moped being driven by a friend. The cops saw us (we were underage to be on a motorized vehicle). I hopped off the back, and pulled keys out of my pocket like I was walking up to the front door of my house. This gave my friend enough time to haul ass around a corner while the cop slowed to look at me.

Which Shoe do you put on first?

- Generally, the right

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? If yes, where to?

-I sorta wear a uniform now. I had a sales job and a service writer job requiring company shirts and either tan or blue slacks.

Are you emotional?

- Me? --sob--- NOOOoooooooooooo (yes, I'm emotional)

Are you a morning person?

- Oh, Hell No.

Do you like to wear flip flops?

- I used to. They don't like my middle aged feet so much now

Have you ever danced in the rain?
- Oh Hell no. Have you been in rain? It's wet. However, I've ridden bikes in the rain.

Have you ever been on a diet?

- Weight Watchers (twice); Slim Fast (twice)

How old were you when you received your first romantic kiss?
- 15

Right. Let's see what you can make out of that, Freud.

46. Good questions
Have you ever been bungee jumping? No, not sure if I would want to either

What is your greatest strength? I don't actually know -I guess my knowledge of history and current events. When I was in the US, I was frequently told that as a foreigner, I knew more about US politics than most Americans did. I would like to think I am compassionate and understanding but that is for others to judge and sometimes I am better at it than others

Have you ever been chased by the police? Did you outrun them? Not me personally but I know people who have

Which Shoe do you put on first? Whichever one is nearest

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? If yes, where to? Nope

Are you emotional? I tend not to show my emotions publicly but, inwardly, I am a very emotional person

Are you a morning person? No, I used to be and I wish I still was

Do you like to wear flip flops? No! I'm not John McCain!

Have you ever danced in the rain? No, but I have been in the rain and enjoyed the sensation of raindrops falling on me and around me

Have you ever been on a diet? Yes, am trying to follow one now

How old were you when you received your first romantic kiss? Have never had one :cry:

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? If yes, where to? Yes. Landscaping Business.

62. I like these kinds of polls.
Have you ever been bungee jumping? -- No. Too scary. I have hang-glided though. Years ago a friend and I took lessons from a guy (who is now dead btw) at a nearby ski area. My friend just loved it and still does it. I did to impress someone. When it was clear my plan wasn't working I quit. Honestly, I was relieved to not have to do that anymore, and I have no desire to tie myself to a rubber band and jump off a bridge.

What is your greatest strength? -- Curiosity I guess. It helps whittle away at my ignorance, so it's an asset at least, if not a strength. Now, if only I had a brain to go along with it, I could be another Leonardo.

Have you ever been chased by the police? Did you outrun them? -- It didn't quite rise to the level of something out of a Jason Bourne movie, but yes I was, and yes I did. It ended up with me, and the truck, hiding in the woods. It was all over a lapsed inspection sticker. It was foolish and I was lucky. I wouldn't do it again.

Which Shoe do you put on first? -- I have no idea. I'll have to pay more attention. I should know that by now.

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? If yes, where to? -- Yes. I worked at a donut factory (Entenmann's). The uniforms were actually fairly sharp looking. Khaki pants/shorts and navy blue golf shirts. I liked working there and I liked not having to wonder what to wear each day. Cuts way down on the laundry too.

Are you emotional? -- Yes

Are you a morning person? -- No. Sleeping isn't a problem, but making myself go to bed is. I should be there now. I always get a second wind at night. I like the night.

Do you like to wear flip flops? -- No. Don't like the snick-snack sound. x(

Have you ever danced in the rain? -- No. I've walked in the rain an number of times. Can't say I found it especially enjoyable either.

Have you ever been on a diet? -- No. I'm fortunate my weight doesn't fluctuate, except for several pounds over the winter.

How old were you when you received your first romantic kiss? -- 14. We were going to be together forever so I carved her name on my wrist with a razor. I'm so glad I did that. My mother was really thrilled about it too. At least the girl's name was Pat and not Stephanie.
