Not feeling particularly deep today!
1. Remember the movie Brewster’s Millions? That happens to you, except on a smaller scale. You receive a million dollars that you must spend in 30 days. However, you cannot have any assets to show for the money at the end of the month (and you can’t buy something and then destroy it), you cannot waste the money, you cannot give it away, and you cannot tell anyone what you are doing. How do you ditch the dough in a month or less?
This seems like a really stupid question. What else is there?
It seems as though I'm allowed to spend the money and give the OBJECTS I spent it on away. So perhaps I'll do that.
First, though, I'll pay off my school debt, my husband's and pay his tuition for the year. That can't be considered having a "asset" at the end of the month, right? Then I'll pay our rent for the remainder of the year. Again, we'll have nothing to show for it. And I can do it without telling the DH, to fulfill another rule on this odd question.
That still leaves me with a massive amount of money. What if I bought stuff through Chalice, International (formally called "Christian Child Care, Int.) I could buy goats, pigs, fruit trees etc. and give THOSE away. It sounds like I simply can't give away the money. And I'll have to do it anonymously, so they won't try and send me a tax receipt.
2. You are locked in a toy store overnight, with no way out until it reopens in the morning. What do you play with all night?
I grab the colouring books and get crackin'. Oh and I also have a love for those connecting tubes you can arrange into different shapes and watch a marble roll and spin around. I actually dreamed I was playing with one last night!
3. If you could have a dinner party with any three famous people, living or dead, you would be wasting your supernatural powers on hosting dinner parties. What would you do instead?
I suppose I should want to cure cancer or something. But I have just always wanted to fly. Is that considered supernatural? Birds can do it, so it is "natural" to them but it would be above MY nature.
4. What’s the best thing since sliced bread? Now, sliced bread ain’t all that impressive, so what’s the best mediocre, hum-drum improvement or advancement that has made modern life just ever so slightly more convenient for humanity, along the lines of saving yourself five seconds every time you want a piece of bread.
A garlic press. With this, AND sliced bread, I am that much faster at prepping garlic bread.
5. What’s your best quality? The response to this question must be a simple declarative statement. You may elaborate on that statement, provided that your elaboration does not include the words “but,” “however,” or “although,” or any other hedging, equivocating, back-sliding, or any other type of backing down from the simple declarative statement with which you began your response.
Wow, this is amazingly difficult -- trying to avoid hedging! I'll give it a go....
I show my love for my husband enough that he never has to wonder whether I do or not.

Fun! Where did you find these questions? Your answers are pretty fantastic.
