Ten Random Thoughts

1.  If you uttered the phrase 'dark ages' to someone....how would they define it?

(probably a response about the last power outage they had)

2.  If you had to deal with someone who you absolutely knew they had a mental disorder....what's the odds that you'd skip the meeting entirely?

3.  Have you in the past decade met anyone that you would truly classify as a 'hippie'?

4.  In an average day of bumping into 100-plus people....how many are what you'd classify as freaky or radical beyond belief?

5.  If you walked into a shop and needed customer assistance....then the front-desk lady appeared helpful but had six obvious tattoos and four piercings on her nose and lip....is there a slight chance you'd just walk out?

6.  If you were the 'boss' and there's a $300 weather balloon floating around and your chief way of 'getting' it....is a $350,000 missile....would you sign off?

7.  If you laid out $22,000 for the first year of college for your 'Wanda', and she arrived back home after 12 months...seeming more stupid than before, what are the odds you won't pay for another semester?

8.  The odds that in the basement of the Pentagon....there's a two-man-shop with experts on weather balloons?

9.  If you could sneak around to 12 states and register to vote in all of them....without getting caught....would you do it?

10.  Is there any chance that your 7-year old son may walk up to you and ask for verification that you are....who you say you are....indicating he wants to see your blue-check mark (like Twitter)?
