    ive spents tons of time either in college, or working at them, so "vacations" were both summer and winter.

    did the florida spring break thing a couple of times during undergrad, so there is (was?) something appealing about escaping the cold and snow and enjoying the warmth and sunshine. on the whole though, especially as im not really involved in winter sports and the allure of sunshine destinations waned with age, id lean towards a summer vacation.

    most poems are lost on me. I wonder if id take a bad book over good poetry? (if you go with either of the first two choices, who's your favorite(s)?)

    marvel comic book superheroes of DC comic book superheroes or no superheroes at all?

    I'm from Portugal, the best summer destiny in Europe so... summer vacations all the way!

    Concerning superheroes: the best comic book i read when i was a teenager was a Sipderman book, so... i go with the Marvel comic books.


    Martin Scorsese or Francis Ford Coppola?

    Probably Scorsese - for his role in Shark Tale if nothing else!

    Almond or coconut macaroons?

    Almond macaroons

    I prefer parodies of superheroes to the superheroes themselvelves
    The Martin Scorcese of Taxi Driver and Hugo Cabret
    And I prefer the summer vacations because they are longer.

    Apples or pineapples?

    i started music listening life right at the end of the beatles' run, and then on into high school, the stones were still alive and kicking. some of my classmates and me actually posed that question amongst ourselves.

    I preferred the beatles.

    the beatles 62-66 or the beatles 67-70?

    I like both but I go with Grimm because they were the bigger influence.
    I went after my favorite songs, bounty, as I donīt remember the date and content of the different albuns.

    Folk music or pop songs?

    Thank you for ignoring my question... ahah

    Neither fork or pop are styles that i appreciate that much. But to sound cool and modern, i go with pop.

    Goodfellas or The Godfather?

    Sorry, Lendo, we posted pratically together, so I didnīt see your question.

    I prefer a trip to Paris as I donīt know France.

    Goodfellas is more my line than Godfathers.

    Fables or true animal stories for children?
