    There's not much to explore. Just a lot of ice and some penguins here and there. BORING.

    Would you study a foreign language to get an extremely well paying job?

    sure, if the job is guaranteed to be there after I learned the language

    Would you eat dog chow if you're stranded and ran out of food?

    Probably not, as i'd just throw it up, receive no nutrition, and still starve and have to deal with the unpleasant taste of dog food and vomit in my mouth

    Would you?

    Yep, especially if it were wet food. That stuff looks delicious.

    Would you ride a moose?

    I am not sure.

    Would you tell a lie in order not to go to an unpleasant meeting?

    No, I would swallow my pride and just go.

    Would you use a public toilet if it was putrid?

    Would you watch a documentary about the pyramids in Egypt?

    Yes I did it and I will do if any chance will be...

    Would you eat something very sweet even if you are diabetic?

    No, like to watch my weight these days.

    Would you clean out your garage or shed, if you knew it was smothered in big hairy spiders?

    Of course! Two birds with one stone: a clean garage and dinner taken care of!

    Would you consider yourself humble?

    I am the most humble person that I know....
    (no, just kidding) In some respects I believe that I am humble, although I do struggle with certain aspects of pride.

    Would you feel right about standing on stage receiving great amounts of praise for an awesome performance (of any kind)?

    if the performance is truly awesome (not a typo for awful) then why not

    would you dress up as a red fox and hand out pamplets on the street?

    Am I getting paid?


    Would you rather have a year long free movie pass or a year long free concert pass?

    Eech! Honestly, I'd pass on both: I'm not much for movies or concerts.

    Would you enjoy a visit to the Arctic?
