I: If time travel was possible and you were presented the opportunity to witness one historical event which moment in time would you choose (changing history not allowed)?

Observing the building of the pyramids.

II: Again, if time travel was possible and you were presented the opportunity to witness one historical event for pure entertainment which event would you choose?

Being in the audience during the performance of one of Shakespeare’s plays with the bard himself.

III: What moment in human history was most likely influenced by beings from another planet if in fact they existed?

Visitors most likely would have influenced the evolution of man from lone scavengers to living in small communities.

IV: If you were provided the opportunity to ask one and only one question of an historical figure what would your question be?

I would ask Homer what influenced him during the writing of the Iliad and the Odyssey.

V: If you had the ability to give life to one fictional character whom would it be and why?

Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird, I believe he is the example of a simple man with honor and integrity that stood for what was right not what was convenient regardless of the personal cost.

VI: If you had the opportunity to share one toe curling, goose bump creating, soul burning kiss with one famous person whom would you choose?

Myrna Loy.

VII: You are about to lose one of your five senses, however you may choose which one to sacrifice. Which sense would you choose?

Cell phones.

X: If you could resurrect one product that is no longer being manufactured or reopen one store or restaurant that no longer exists what would you choose?

I would bring back Bob’s Beef Burgers, which used to be located on the corner of Second Avenue and Huntington Drive in Arcadia. The burgers there were so good that In & Out would have never stood a chance.

XI: Which of the following four great events of exploration would you have chosen to accompany? Magellan’s circumnavigating of the globe. Crossing the Atlantic with Christopher Columbus. Crossing the United States with Lewis and Clark. Joining Neil Armstrong on the moon.

I would have chosen to accompany Lewis and Clark. It would be amazing to see the US in an unblemished state.

XII: If you were stranded on a desert island for the rest of your life and you only had the ingredients for preparing the same meal everyday what would you choose?

Boysenberry jam and margarine sandwiches would be my food of choice.
