  4. Too fun! Love your next life answer, too, though I'd like to be Crais's raincoat.

    I'm terrified of snakes so your life motto is a good one to remember!

  5. I feel the motto can be applied in so many situations (v. good book, too, btw). :)


    Re next life: I figure if you're the swather of the poo flinger it's much less likely that you will be the poo flingee...


    PCN - snicker re your raincoat dream...hopefully he also keeps it "down his pants."
