    Depending on how sweet they are.

    What's the strangest thing you own?

    Hard to say really, what seems strange to you might be quite normal for me

    Possibly my celestial telescope, most people's eyes glaze over when I start telling them about it. The 1-85 scale warship that I am building, most people's eyes glaze over when I start talking about it. Possibly my collection of rocks, most people's eyes glaze over when I start talking about them...

    Was it wrong for me to admit that I have a collection of rocks?

    Not at all. Rocks and mineral samples are fascinating.

    (Not the thread question - What kind of rocks are in your collection? Things you find around or samples from all over the world?)

    Thread question

    Have you got anything rare in your possession that you particularly love?
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    I already posted the pic of my 3 old gold coins. And 2 copper vases made from bombshells of WW I.

    Have you ever long hair?

    For a while after getting out of the military I kept very long hair for a guy. I still have fairly long hair on my drivers license, and I get double takes at the bases where they check that along with my access credentials.


    Have you ever had really short hair?

    I have all sorts that I have found over the years. My fav 3 are an amethyst geode about the size of a tennis ball, a rock full of gold and quartz and a black obsidian and stone layered rock

    I have really short hair most of the time, as soon as it is long enough to need combing, it all mysteriously vanishes.

    What achievement are you most proud of

    Making it through to my current age. There was a time when it was even money I wouldn't (lifestyle).

    If someone was to give you a tax free gift of 10K (American - not sure how that converts to some of your currencies) how would you spend it? I picked that number because its a windfall for the vast majority of folks but not nearly enough to make anyone wealthy.

    What is a tax free gift? I never think of taxes when I pay/get something.
    But if such amount of money would be a gift I'd go to the airport and take the first plane to one of the destinations I've dreamt for years.

    Do you use to eat candies?

    When I was a kid, yes. Naturally my teeth were full of cavities

    Do you own any memorabilia that has any value?
