Appetizer
If you could take lessons to learn any musical instrument, which would you want to learn?
I grew up playing the piano and the sax, but have always wanted to learn the guitar.. have never learned to play it, but often think about trying it..
Soup
Have you ever mistaken a person for someone else?
Hmmm… Not that I can recall..
Salad
On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest, how well do you keep secrets?
10
Main Course
What’s the closest you’ve ever been to a dangerous animal?
Well, lets see.. I’ve scuba dived with sharks, was almost eaten by a hippo along a river on the Serengeti in Africa. I killed a HUGE tarantula in the shower one morning with my sandal in Mombasa (east coast of Kenya). I once found myself 30 yards from a bear and her 2 cubs out in a field, with no protection other than a bow and arrow. Oh, and our truck was charged by a rhino in Kenya as well.. Nothing else is coming to mind…
Dessert
When was the last time you lost your patience?
I honestly cannot remember, it’s been a while, although I used to quite often…
Stumble it!

To be eaten by a hyppo, really fits the game ! He would have had a nice feast but probably got away because you are not fat enough, lol !

Sounds like you’ve had some pretty interesting adventures.
Do hippos eat people? That’s scary.

Not sure if he actually would have eaten me.. but he was certainly pissed off and surfaced right next to me. I had hopped out onto some large rocks that extended into the river (being the National Geographic photographer wanna-be I was back then), and was crouched down taking pictures of a group of them out in the river. Suddenly one of them surface Right Next to me.. I jumped back as fast as I could, half fell in the water, and got out of there as fast as possible!! :]
Thank you as always for stopping by!

You know that tarantulas are less poisonous than daddy long legs. It’s just that daddy long legs’ fangs are long enough…
Anyway, happy Friday and great feast!
