This one looks good. Lots of categories and good simple to understand explanations. If it doesn't do it for you ask me again :)

 If you had to move from where you are now - where would you move?

Let's say you've won an HGTV contest and you have the choice of having a room in your house remodeled at no cost to you, which room would you pick and what would you have done?

If you could go back to a point in your life, and relive everything from that point until now, and have the opportunity to make different decisions, would you do it?

What was your favorite thing about 2008?  What are you looking forward to most in 2009?

Why do you park in a driveway and drive on a parkway?  (hahaha :-D)

I started scrapping about 3 years ago when I was pg with dd. I'd tried to get pg for years and so really wanted to document the experience. I didn't really get that into it - still haven't finished that first album lol - but when my dd was about 5 months old I discovered scrapping message boards and that was the inspiration I needed to get me off the ground. And boy did it ever! I have been totally obsessed ever since!
I scrap about my kids. I'm not really into the aam pages - who cares! I already know about me and since I scrap for the fun of it not for the historical record so much, scrapping about myself bores me. For me it's all about the kids!

These days Twilight is pretty high on the list, but traditionally I love Ever After with Drew Barrymore - I can't resist a good cinderella story!!

Fastest? Ugh are you going to make me admit this?? lol The fastest I ever went in a car was me driving top speed to a business meeting that I was late to - because I'd lost track of time perusing a new scrapbook store I discovered incententally - and I got up to 145 km/hr. I'd have gone faster, but that was all my car would do. The store was an hour from my town where the meeting was and when I surfaced from la la land and realized what time it was, I had 20 mins to make my meeting. I was either going to get there on time or die trying! Ok so not smart,but at least I lived to tell the tale! :?

The one Christmas tradition I will never give up is not celebrating Christmas! LOL I grew up celebrating Solstice instead. It is the first day of winter and is the 21st of Dec. My parents are not religious and wanted to get away from the growing commercialism of christmas so came up with their own version of an old holiday. On Solstice eve the Good Fairy comes and hides presents all around the house for the kids. It is a ton of fun in the morning spending hours hunting them out! Now that I have dh and kids, we do Christmas with his family and solstice with mine. It works great because it saves on family holiday conflicts! I do enjoy Christmas, but Solstice is the one that really feels magical to me!

For my dh I would buy his dream boat! He would love to have a 30 ft fiberform with a captains platform, a sleeping cabin with a bathroom and kitchen and all that so he could go on long fishing trips with his kids. Of course it would have powerful twin outboards, gps fish finder, multiple electric downriggers and whatever other fancy equipment his heart desired!
For myself... a new house. We live in a 100 yr old place that is drafty, doesn't have running drinking water, currently is experiencing septic field issues, has mice... and it belongs to my mom who is giving us an exceptional deal on the rent so we can't really just move out. I would love a small farm (maybe 10 acres)  with a 4-5 bedroom house, big wrap around porch, bay windows, a big long attic that I can make into a scrap room and a garage for dh's new boat with an attached workshop/office space for him. I am allergic to horses, but we'd have chickens, cats/dogs, maybe some sheep and/or pigs and a cow or two. Just enough to be a farm, but not so much that it is a huge chore. Sigh... maybe one day...

Now a team made up of a geneticist, philosopher and chicken farmer claim to have found an answer. It was the egg.
Put simply, the reason is down to the fact that genetic material does not change during an animal's life.
Therefore the first bird that evolved into what we would call a
chicken, probably in prehistoric times, must have first existed as an
embryo inside an egg.

You can find anything on the net!

I've always wanted to see some of the ancient cities in our world. The heart of Rome, Athens, Paris etc. So I guess a European tour would cover it :-D
