What would it take to get you to start a new life on a new world?
A massive advance in the field of interstellar transportation and longevity treatments in the next couple of years. There would also have to be booze there. I'm not going if there's no Rum.
How has technology changed the way you watch movies and listen to music?
Not a lot. I still use my Eyes and Ears.
What’s your favourite movie quote of all time?
" It's too bad she won't live! But then again, who does?"It's from 'Bladerunner'. The one film I think everyone should see, so I won't bother with that QotD
If you don't know xkcd, then you should. I know I've ganked one of their cartoons for a blog post before now, but the one below is another of my favourites:
The other top tip is:
...hopefully with less FAIL.
The subject may seem a bit prosaic, but I made it as a thank you for my pal. For driving me all over Cornwall on holiday. It's designed to go in her van.
Subversive Cross Stitch.com was the inspiration for the idea, and looking at the site again to get that link. I realise I should do a bit of adornment on it. I also have to work out how to mount it in some way. So a bit more work to do yet.
I used the text generator at Stitchpoint.com, which is linked to from Subversive cross stitch.
I'm now working on some other projects using the online image converter Stitchpoint 2.0 though you'll have to wait a while to see those.
Here's the cross stitching I've been working on. It's to go in a friends van. I just need to finish off the edges in some way & work out a way to hang it.
Conan: "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women."
Cha0tic: "WRONG! To sit in your own chair at home and take your boots off after wearing them for 16 hours"
Barbarian Hoard: (As one man) "HAAAIIIII!"
...finished work.
Home.
Drinking.
...Followed by a great Sunday mooching around the Science museum, but when I got home I had to get ready to go on site first thing Monday morning at the 'V' Festival. I'm now working my arse off there, so I'll have to catch up when I finish working there in a bit.
What do you think happens to you after you die?
Do you think they mean in a Philosophical/Religious way, or in a practical way?
Philosophically/Religiously I have no idea. I'll be sure to let you know when I get there though*.
On a practical level. The people at the NHS will take my giblets out and give them to someone else, assuming I haven't wrecked them completely. I'd be quite happy to leave my body to culinary science. Although the NHS will have my giblets, so there'll be no gravy.** I'm not sure how legal that is though.
Otherwise. I think I should write a will.
*I quite fancy the idea of Valkyries taking me off to Valhalla for an eternity of feasting. Or maybe haunting someone. Or coming back as something else.***
**Or Liver Pate, they take your Liver. There could be sausages, I don't think they take your intestines.
***We have a saying at work if we're having a shitty day:
"I must've been really bad in a previous life to be re-incarnated as a stage hand"
