I wish I was LESS lazy. Only those time-sucking games .... books ... and iceskating. I must, I must .............. Oh, I know. I must finish avp2.

But sincerely, if someone could use some magic to make me more hard-working, at least for few months, I would be really grateful.

I really liked astronomy when I was in the 7-9 year old range, I took an adult's astronomy course, and after it I wanted to be an astrophysicist. That plan has been scrapped; the average "real" telescope costs upwards of $ 4000 per minute to run.

Yes, in your car Sauron .
Me on the other hand=>
    (running) 5-6miles = 38.5minutes
    (biking) => 19 miles/hour a confotable speed for long distance (8 miles or more)
    (Swimming) => 1 mile = less than 40 minute.

But, kind sir, the maximum velocity of the swiftest vehicle in our possession is 206 km/h. Of course, it would be insane to try to do it, but you could travel one mile in ~35 seconds!

Make that ~35 seconds- I forgot about an extra 5 second acceleration.

Do you really think that the expendable crewman can drive?

I voted for the music thing. I've always loved music and I can play guitar/bass/piano, but I'm not really good at it, although I've played in some bands.
The romance-thing could come next. I'm good at socialicing, but my skills in romance are quite bad
Maybe if I could get my rock-act together, the romance-problems would go away. Everyone loves rockers, right

In conclusion, since I couldn't find any messages about the first group of choices, Persuasion, Seduction and Romance seem to be the winners.

Thank you to all who participated.

All new votes will be disreguarded.

gomez, remember what i said about nixing the negative publicity? that includes making fun of something your leader posts.
