Here's the first batch of answers. Ask me a question here.
pir -- Because it's an interesting way of posing the question, and it gives you some idea of what people find important to themselves with respect to you. Or not.
xeger -- Why did that guy climb that big mountain?
browngirl -- A genuinely nice person who has to say "No." more often.
dcicuto -- Salt, for its versatility. Although, mayonnaise goes suprisingly well on a grilled hot dog. Boiled hot dogs are a blight upon this planet, and none shall abide their presence.
tigerbright -- It's tough to tell... it's all situational by its very nature. A lot of it has boiled down to "Pay attention." Although lately, I've been fond of the phrase "You can't dance at every simcha."
chanaleh -- You're asking the wrong guy. I never went trick-or-treating as a kid, so my mind never really worked along those lines. But if I had to suggest something... how about some embodiment of the general state of ennui in the educated classes that has been brought on by the slump in the white-collar job market? Perhaps some representation of "too much unwanted free time", with a twist of "I can't believe how much of my self-worth I based on my job up until this point in time". Then again, you could just go as some goth dressed up in a black flowing skirt and black leather bodice and some stompy boots and some other stuff that would have guys drooling on the floor at your very presence and holy crap when did I start writing like Mark Morford I think I'll stop now.
awfief -- More patience and focus. More patience and focus when it counted.
teddywolf -- Good question. I don't really have one favorite. Right now, my favorite meal would have to be a donburi bowl with a Chicken Cutlet, Curry, and a fried egg. It's very rare that I have had a food that I look forward to eating again, and will go out of my way to eat. To be sure, there are non-meal things like Krispy Kreme Donuts, but as for real food, the Chicken Cutlet Curry with Egg Donburi is at the top of the list for now.
hammercock -- Thursday and Friday of next week look good, although that's without looking at the social schedule. Also, think of some other things you want to put on the list.
