FOUR FOR FRIDAY + 1
Q1 - Possessions: Do you think that the more stuff you own enhances your life or adds to your burden?
Q2 - Oil: If OPEC decided to turn off the oil spigot, do you think that the United States would have the right to wage war to protect its interests?
Q3 - Movie: Have you seen the movie Ellie Parker with Naomi Watts? If so, would you recommend it to a friend?
Q4 - Birthday: What are the maximum number of days someone should spend celebrating his/her birthday?
Bonus Question...
Q5 - Dancing: How often do you dance... and I don't mean just boogying to your favorite tunes inside your car or in the shower. We're talking real dancing here, with a partner on a dance floor (weddings count).

FOUR FOR FRIDAY
Q1 - Sleepover: A friend calls you up and says, "Hey, me and some of my buddies are headed your way for a [insert reason here... concert, bike race, conference/trade show, etc.]. Can we crash at your place Saturday night?" What do you say... yes; no; depends on how many people they're bringing? Despite what you'd tell this friend of yours, if you made the effort, how many people could you accommodate for a one-night sleep over?
Q2 - Learning: When did you last learn something entirely new, and what was it that you learned?
Q3 - Natural Disasters: A major earthquake (estimated to be about 7.7 magnitude) rocked a sparsely populated region of eastern Russia earlier today. Considering that certain regions of the planet are more prone to earthquakes than others, would you go out of your way to avoid those regions, even when traveling for leisure? For example, would not visit San Francisco, California, because of its earthquake-related reputation?
Q4 - Reading: Quick, I need to suggest a book for my guys & gals book club. What title should I assign to everyone to read (for the month of June)?

FOUR FOR FRIDAY - THE PICK FOUR EDITION
Since I've been such a bad blogger as of late--and to make up for last week's absence--this week's Four For Friday includes four additional questions. Feel free to answer all eight, or as they say in the scratch lottery biz, pick four. I'll be back next Monday with a full explanation of what I've been doing with my time and why that has kept me away from my personal blog. In the meantime, here's this week's FFF:
Q1 - Toothpaste: If you were asked by a toothpaste manufacturer to come up with a new flavor, what would be your top three suggestions?
Q2 - Websites: The U.S. Postal Service allows anyone to see the authenticated physical address of a commercial PO Box owner, while at the same protecting vigorously the address of a non-commercial owner. Phone companies protect the privacy of unpublished phone numbers' owners. Should website owners be allowed to register site names anonymously?
Q3 - Food: What's the absolute strangest food you've ever tried?
Q4 - Gasoline: Economists are predicting that gasoline prices in the U.S. will reach $3.00 per gallon within the next three months. How will this summer's gas prices impact your travel plans?
Q5 - Health Insurance: Do you think all employers should be required by law to pay some or all of the costs associated with their employeesí health insurance?
Q6 - September 11th: How do you feel about movies that attempt to portray what happened onboard commercial airplanes that were downed on 9/11? Do have an interest in watching these movies?
Q7 - Taxes: Did you file your 2005 taxes yourself or did you enlist the services of a professional tax preparer? In either event, did you file online or by hand?
Q8 - Hey You: When you're on a horse farm and you want to get a horse's attention, you make a clicking sound with your mouth. What sort of sound would I need to make to get your attention?
