I had an idea for this sociological experiment. My goal is to engage in a more detailed and honest dialogue with friends and strangers and to learn more about myself and others.

Today's Question
Friday = on the road, then family, then beer, then chicken. Saturday = surprise party for in-laws, dinner at Michael Symon's "Roast"... awesome, Sunday = Asian Barbecue, beer, dj brother's birthday party at Detroit's New Center Pavilion, Monday = on the road and late, shitty (technical term) job, and here we are, back in the grind. Since we had such a hiatus I'm going to provide a goofily recurring, multi-part question. First, bear versus shark? Second, would it matter the venue, i.e., water or forest? If water, shallows or deep? Third, does it matter if the bear is polar or otherwise? Four, if it seems ridiculous, wouldn't you want the bear in the water if there were a shark near you?

Today's Question
Since you've all demonstrated a clear propensity for the indulgence in sundry libations, what is your favorite past-time, surely to be done with a cocktail in hand, but seriously, what is your favorite past-time?

Today's Question
If forced to eat 1 gallon of ice cream, would you choose Superman, Mint Chocolate Chip, or Mackinac Island Fudge?

Today's Question
Gasoline? Keep drilling for it or accept the fact that peak oil, i.e., the pinnacle of the parabola of the existence and therefore consumption of all oil, is now in the past and we have to find an alternative or suffer complete and total, global economic chaos if we fail to do so, OR, any additional opinions?

Today's Question
Potter Stewart, late Supreme Court Justice, and native of Jackson, Michigan, in his opinion on the 1964 obscenity case Jacobellis v. Ohio, stated that he could not define hard-core pornography, but knew it when he saw it. Many intangible things in life could be defined so nebulously without much contention, but what do these things really mean, and what comprises their essences? With that in mind, what is music? Is anything music? Are jack hammers and heart beats percussion? Are humming power lines in the key of D rhythmic? Are a group of bull finches whistling their mating call a polyphonic lead? How do you define music?
