I'm in the mood for some after-dinner randomness. Ended up going to dinner with Boyfriend. Was nice. Not going to give him presents today, though. Going to wait until I have them all. Hopefully that will be very, very soon. *crossing fingers*

2. Skydive
That sounds SO much scarier than bungee-jumping!
1. Australia
If you came over, I'd give you a tour *g*
5. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Me too! I even hve a copy on my computer, but I've never gotten around to watching it.

The arrogance/clique-y-ness of fandoms really, really bugs me.

LMAO! Could be! I started eating it out of the cats' dishes before my parents could stop me, one day. I don't think my parents let me crawl around unchecked after that. LOL The cats were just confused, I'm told.

I want to jump tandum... is that how it's spelled? Buddy-jump, basically. Strapped in with a trained professional so I don't panic if something goes wrong. With bungee-jumping I'm terrified I'll hit a rock or the bridge or something I'm not supposed to hit... and if I hate it the first time down and up, I've still got a number of down-and-ups until it's over. WAY too scary for me! At least I go down with something to slow me down(parachute). I don't like going fast.

Oohhhh how very tempting!!! heehee Now I just need, oh, money. And time. Neither of which I'm remotely close to having. *sigh*
5. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Me too! I even hve a copy on my computer, but I've never gotten around to watching it.
There are so many movies I really, really want to see but never seem to get around to it. LOL I've had movies on my comp and not watched them :-)

In some cases, I can see when it's needed. Like in Role-Playing games where there's a certain acceptable style and tone that needs to be followed. Or where people are tired of people re-asking questions that are clearly in the FAQ. But definitely one of the reasons I lurk is because I don't want to get involved with some of the power struggles and preachiness that happens within them. *sigh*
