Pretty simple...but hopefully fun.
Post a general question, then someone answers it and posts another and so on. The questions can be anything from trivial to serious to obscure.
For example, you can ask whatever you want:
- What's your worst/best memory of high school and why?
- What was your favorite pet you had as a child and why?
- If you knew today was your last day on Earth, how would you spend it and why?
- What is the most rewarding experience you have had and what made it so?
- Who or what inspires you and why?
So to the person below me:

People, place, thing or idea? I suppose I'll go with people for now. I am inspired by the economist Peter Schiff. Reason being is that he is one of those people that will consistently stick to his beliefs and ideas when everyone is telling him he is wrong, crazy, doom and gloomer, ext. There are videos of him on youtube trying to warn everyone about the sub-prime motgage crisis and they all literally laughed at him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgRGBNekFIw
One of the most pathetic traits of humanity is the need to fit in. The willingness to compromise parts of who you are to be accepted by a group of your peers. To see someone willing to go against the flow at great personal cost, in an effort to warn as many who will listen, is about as inspirational as it gets. I see it everywhere I go. People make decisions about other people and what they believe based on what a particular group feels about it.

'I have a dream!' Ha ha! Some, you don't really ever realize to the extent that you might have wanted, but that never diminishes them. I did take for granted the question was 'weight lifting' related. The gym is the only time when my mind is cleared of all of the clutter of the day. Not a thought one, other than what set I am on, and what's the next exercise. There will always be an ache or a pain. That's half the fun...working around them!
If you could sit down across the table from anyone from History (dead) and have a coffee and a conversation, who would it be, and why?paolo59

I have long said that I'd like to sit down and visit with "James the Just" the brother of Jesus. It would be interesting to know his thoughts on where Christianity traveled under the overwhelming influence of the Apostle Paul. If I could talk to two people I'd love to have Paul there at the table as well.

Not becoming an architect. While coming across as self confident, I have always been afraid to live up to my own potential. I excelled in Drafting 1,2,3 & in Architectural Drafting 1,2,3 in HS. But I was such a misguided young man at the time (70's), that I didn't believe the two teachers, who insisted that I was the best that they'd seen. I saw them as "inferior" southern teachers (had just moved to ATL from Boston). I outsmarted myself. I had such a love for creating cool homes and businesses. I always used basics of it when designing and building from scratch, my own furniture (and other such projects) in later years, but I regret not going for it back then.
Question:
What is your biggest fear in life?"If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did."
