Interview the Person below you?

[anfield5]

No I am photogenic, so I never need to improve things

Are people too concerned with looks, rather than substance?

[Storm]

I think so. Most of the people posting selfies day in and day out..there isn't a "natural" photo to be found thesedays...

Do you have any survival skills, i.e if you were ever to get lost out hiking/camping, would you manage to survive a few days?

[airshifter]

Compared to the average person I probably have stronger survival skills. I learned the basics from time with my father hunting/camping, and did some more advanced survival training in the military. Having said that, I'd enjoy some hard core survival training, just for the fun of it. Every environment is different. And I'll also say that the mental strain of being hungry in that situation is huge compared to being ill or just choosing not to eat, such as those that fast. Go a few days in the wild without food other than what you gather yourself, and the whole game changes quickly. Including what seems enjoyable in your diet!


Have you ever encountered dangerous animals up close when in the wild?

[Storm]

yes, I wrote about it on this thread a while back about an elephant (mock) charging our jeep on a safari in Jim Corbett NP here. so I'll let someone else answer this again.

btw when I posted the Q about survival skills I actually did think that perhaps the one person who would say yes to this is you with your military background

Have you ever encountered dangerous animals up close when in the wild?

Not really "close up". I have encountered, from a distance, both black bears and moose (the latter are, statistically, the most dangerous animal in Canada).

What do you think of animals performing in a circus?

[anfield5]

Absolutely love it... no... what is the opposite of love...HATE, I absolutely hate it. It should be banned worldwide. I believe we have a responsibility to the rest of the animal kingdom, to nurture and protect, not to exploit.

If you could come back as any animal, what would it be and why?

[gadjo_dilo]

A kitty kitten.
They're beautiful, funny, lazy, sleep a lot and generally manage to find a shelter and an owner to love them.

What is your fav bird?

[anfield5]

Jessica Alba. or if you mean the feathered variety Jesica Alba in an feather boa.

I love raptors, fav is the Osprey, but love Peregrine Falcons, Bald Eagles etc as well.

I recorded the Beverly Hillbillies theme, played on my banjo, and use it as my cellphone ringtone. Is this weird?

[gadjo_dilo]

Not at all.

What's your fav food on barbecue?

[anfield5]

baked beans . Not a huge bbq fan, meat tends to get tough, I'd rather cook in the kitchen and eat alfresco.

What is your fav everyday chore around the house?
