No, as I still have hold of my senses.
-and as you might have guessed I love storms :D - I think we might be getting rain tomorrow too..finally!
what did you mean by "figure of style"? - I like looking at the stars/night sky, but due to the terrible light pollution in a big city it is frustrating, hence the Q as I envy people living close to nature (and dark skies)
Would you like to have an encounter with an UFO?
Pardon me, the english version is figure of speech

I might like an encounter but not of the third kind.:p
Do you have an astronomical observatory in the neighbourhood?
Surprisingly we do. The Croydon Astronomical Society have an observatory on a hill near us with a 14"" (350mm) telescope - I'm not sure if it is a mirror telescope or purely optical. It's away from houses in its immediate neighbourhood but still subject to light pollution.
I enjoy a thunderstorm if I'm safely indoors. How about you?
Love Thunderstorms. Sadly we do not get many here do we. So I dont enjoy many of them
Do you like Elephants?
No. Too heavy and slow.
Did you ever have a teddy bear?
Nope.
Why do people like teddy bears? (and nothing wrong with elephants - amazing animals they are ! :) )
I can answer the last two questions in one.
I am 28 and still have my favourite teddy bear from Childhood. As for why people like teddy bears. Well generally they are quite cuddly, but I think when I was small I loved this bear so much. Hugged it all night and whatever. That level of attachment as a child doesn't just stop when you become an adult and so I could never throw him away. He means to much to me.
Soppy I know but there you go.
What was/is the name of your Teddy Bear?
Mine was called Do-do (rhyming with no-no and not with yoo-hoo!).
What can we do to save the remaining elephant population?
Play more with teddy bears and keep the innocence of a kid in your soul.
Why are those toy bears called teddy bears?
They are named after US president Theodore Roosevelt. Teddy was his nickname and the maker call his bear Teddy's Bear. Thus the name Teddy Bear stuck.
What do you think is the best political system?
