If You Could Eliminate Any One Type If Insect Permanently From The Earth, What Would You Get Rid Of?
Spiders.
I don't need three minutes for this. Hands down, 110%, spiders.
I'm sure you would all agree.
Okay, okay.. Sure they are needed for things.. but we have TONS of bugs that could do what spiders do..
Right?
Yeah... Sure.
Either way, Spiders need to go. ASAP.

If You Could...
If You Could Have Lived Though Any War In History (With Out Fighting In It), Which Would It Be?
Besides the go to answer of Star Wars, which is an honest answer mind you!
I'd have to say perhaps the cold war?
I'm not sure to be honest.
I know enough, that none of them were as fun as they sounded.
I'll stick with my go to answer.
That or the RainicornXdog wars..

If You Could..
If you could physically transport yourself to any place in the world at this moment, where would you go?
Back to Hawaii,.. Only cause I'd tell Yannic to fuck off and really get a chance to enjoy it without him.. And all the fighting that came with..
But other then that?
I'd like to be transported to Jasons' place, to lay in his arms and snuggle close.
I'm not like most people, in that way they need to travel the world.
Sure that would be nice and all.. But I'd rather stay home.
To answer the question with some thought and creativity,
I'd love to go see the lighting up of the ocean, where ever that may happen.
There are small fish, quite like lighting bugs, that light up when tossed about in the waves upon the shore.
You can wade in the water, and it looks so magical.
or.. a DQ.. I could go for a sundae. mmm ice cream..

If You Could... Part Two
If you Could Spend One Night Alone With Anyone In History, Who Would You Choose?
Edgar Allen Poe.
That mans twisted mind, and his heart oozing over. That would be quite the interserting sleep over.
Would we tell ghost stories? would we make a fort?
I really couldn't tell you.
Only that I'd leave changed, not sure in what ways, but I know my life path would forever be altered by that night with Poe. As I'm sure the same way his stories has changed the views and paths of many of their readers.
A night with Poe, sure sounds like a really bad porno.
But that's alright with me.
;-)

If You Could... Part One
If You Could Spend One Whole Alone With Anyone In The World Who Is Currently Alive, Who Would You Select?
I don't need three minutes for this.
David Bowie.
All my cards in, David Bowie.
Oh the things I'd let the man do to me.. okay that's going a little far. But my statement stands.
Of all the things he's seen and lived through in his life, the stories he could tell, and heart aches he could describe to me. A few beers and sitting under the stars for a full night heart to heart hashing, raw one to one.
Sure its not most peoples first pick. But really, look at the mans eyes, he has stories to tell.
He has lived a life; a life I'd love to hear, over and over again.
*sigh* only if right?
now that's the down side.

If You Were...
If You Were To Be Granted One Wish, What Would It Be?
To time travel.
I have always believed I was born in the wrong era. I am one for manners and the proper etiquette nothing of what we have now a days. To be sent back, time traveled back, to old England or the such, I think I could fit in swell.
Of course to be hauled back I'd like to have many of my friends and belongings with me.. but that's just the finer points!
This century we call home, is full of ruthless teens and good for nothing ruffians.. To be made up proper and attend a dinner party, with wine and a many more forks then needed is really where I feel I belong.
On the other hand. It would be super need to be able to fly.

Excerpt from the novel..
IF is the ultimate book about fantasy.
"Each of it's questions is meant to spark and tantalize the imagination. They are a celebration of the human spirit, which loves to dream and needs to hope, but which can also fear and even grow angry. Our ability to imagine is the remarkable gift we have been given to lead us into joy and aspiration and out of despair or sadness, because common to all of us is the idea that there could be a different world, perhaps a better one.
How many times a day do we say, "If only.."? If we could create the perfect life, the perfect city, the perfect home, the perfect job, the perfect mate. We all fantasize, and we all dream. We dream of perfection, money, revenge, glory, change. We fantasize about both good and evil, about winning and losing, about our past and future. Fantasies are what inspire us all; to work, marry, raise families, create, improve our world.
It is why we lose ourselves in books, go to movies, watch television, go to the ballgame and on vacation. We dreamed as children and we dream now, because without our fantasies we would be lost.
We imagine in order to learn, to understand, to strive, to attempt, to predict, and avoid, to correct, to describe, to solve.
This book is also a game. It was born of many dinner parties and gatherings, when just to throw out a provocative question and ask for each person's answer always led to the most surprising and fascinating discussions. Every time, a kind of synergetic and addictive momentum took over as answers led to other related questions, reasons were demanded, disagreements were unleashed, conditions were imposed, other's answers were predicted, and inevitably those involved were startled by the responses, at times even their own.
No matter who is present it seems to irresistible, whether we are at a flagging party, or on a long car or plane ride, among a group of students, within a family, or alone with someone very close to us. It is infectious and fascinating to watch and take part in.
Of course implicit in every question is "why?" In some sense it is like taking the pulse of a moment in time, or a group of friends, to see what we believe in; to see what world we envision.
Whether they are read randomly or in sequence, the responses these questions elicit can lead to extraordinary offshoots; other related questions will occur, and variations on these, and attached caveats and conditions "customize" the original list depending on who is there to play. Because everybody, old or young, fat or thin, intelligent or not, from one culture or another, has the ability and inclination to wonder.
And so, aside from the truths that are revealed, the contemplation that is provoked, the confidence or anxiety that surfaces, the self-knowledge that results, or the understanding that might be gained, above all we hope that asking these questions inspires optimism, since no matter who or what we really are, we share the ability to travel together the unpredictable journey of the imagination, which leads us though the wonderful game of life."
