1. Usually every 4-5 weeks - COVID has changed that, the blowup doll has tried a couple times
2. Heights but only in man-made structures - edge of a building but not edge of a cliff
3. Do I still have my human brain and thoughts? If I die during my 24 hours does it affect me when I return to human form? If yes and no, i'm gonna go Gorilla and try and bust out
4. Saturday 10 AM to 10 PM
5. KU Tickets

1) Not enough. Starting to look like a hippie again.
2) Needles, they freak me out.
3) Giraffe, they look so cool when they run
4) Tdub got this one right, 6am to 6pm Sat
5) KU tickets would be hard to pass up, but I think I'd go with 1st class to Europe.

1. Every 6-8 weeks. No real appointments at my place. Local place so just show up whenever and they'll get you in.
2. I HATE carbonated drinks. Hate the smell of them, the feel of them and hate the carbonation. I refuse to drink anything carbonated.
3. Gorilla I guess.
4. Don't really have one. Sundays are good though. Probably the most family time we get together.
5. B. Courtside seats in the most famous arena in that type of game. That would be a blast. Though Europe is a very close 2nd.

1) Average = 6-8 weeks. Sometimes every 3-4 weeks, sometimes every 3-4 months.
2) Many but one is that I can not look up if I am in-between levels. For example, on a balcony.
Another is I can't put a wood popsicle stick in my mouth without getting the heebie-jeebies. Big time.
3) Probably tiger
4) Saturday 8:00am to 8:00pm
5) All the things I mentioned EXCEPT ONE are realistic in that some point in your life you might/can be able to do/acquire them. The one thing that figure would be the most difficult to do would be to have dinner with with either Emily Ratajkowski or Margot Robbie. That's my choice. F.

I think I gotta go 1st class, 2 round trip tickets to Europe ( i mean, this is all assuming post COVID b/c there wouldn't be KUBB in the Garden without a COVID solve ) then for pure value.

And dinner with one of those smokeshows might be pretty awkward for perhaps both of you.

Let's say it's a 3-hour dinner. I would estimate that Emrata would say about .5 interesting things during the time. Plus, Margot is better looking.

Ferrari is the easiest one to immediately eliminate.

Europe, meh. Little interest in that particular destination. Plus the airline miles game isn't some impossible code to crack.

KU game box has already been checked.

Way too old for the concert shenanigans.

$7500 buys you a single couch these days.

That leaves the unlimited massage package or Margot. Maybe Margot is the masseuse, then it's a no-brainer. Regardless, the massage package improves your life more than the others.

I don't get back massages often.
Just not my thing.
But yes, if it was two years of Margot giving me back massages, i'm in.

Otherwise I haven't hit Sweden, Finland, Norway - i'd like to take a trip there - and if my flights are covered I can spend more on the trip itself.

1. About once a month (I try to hide the gray by keeping short, to less and less success every month)
2. I have heart disease. Not unusual except I’m not 50 yet.
3. Giraffe. I could see more that way. I’m still trapped in zoo so I want one that will let me see the most.
4. Varies. But any 12 hour stretch of daylight on a non-working day.
5. Massages. Unless dinner lead to breakfast with Margot.
