thanks to @ferkixlll I got pulled in to this... let's see...
1- do you like blue cheese? Yes - many kinds, tho Stilton and Manchego are currently dominating that region of the cheese hamper.
2- coke or Pepsi? Not on your tintype! A proper Jamacan Ginger Beer upon occasion, or perhaps a Fever Tree Tonic... but mostly, nopt.
3- do you own a gun? Nope; I'm too afraid I'd use it...
4- what flavor Kool-Aid? Purple - I do like things whose flavors cannot be found in nature.. but KoolAid hasn't touched my lips since the Beatles were playing with Hamburg... .
5- what do you think of hot dogs? Not Dogs for me - a vegetarian; but mostly nope. I make a mean super(veggie)burger involving avocado and jalepenos tho
6- favorite TV show? Does The Tour De France count? It is probably the only thing I watch without fail year in and out. Otherwise, Doctor Who.

9- can you do push-up? Yep, tho it's a lil modified since I broke my left wrist twice - i have to do them (all 25 or s0) on my fingertips....
10- favorite jewelry on me? The two (penny sized) medallions given to me by His Holiness Shankaracarya, the head of Hinduism... (there's a good story there)

16- 3 things that you drink regularly? Black tea with Lemon; Fever Tree Tonic, Single Malt Scotch (nothing under 15 yrs please).
17- current dislike? The utter incapacity of the Left to anticipate and constructively be proactive to the degenerative Right--I'm not saying that the Right is always wrong or that the Left is always right--but the lack of balance of power has not been good for the USA... also the lack of religion--used to be that folk were guided by a deeper moral code than secular neccessity--again many problems there...but the current alternative is much worse

27- favorite food? artichokes; alternately a proper South Indian "Meals" or Thali... nom!!
