    Definitely my 16 hour roadtrip by myself, through 6 states to see PJ in Chicago, followed by meeting fellow 10C
    members...highlight of my year.

    Is there a roadtrip in your life that stands out?

    Driving 10,000+ miles to see Pearl Jam tour around is definitely up there. I've had some great roadtrips. I've covered most of the country except Hawaii and Alaska. Definitely want to get to Alaska at some point. I miss being on the road, you can do some real living out there.

    Do you mind being alone?

    Agreed.
    I've been to 19states, just feels like I may have seen more.

    I thought the original question was how many countries have you visited.
    In that case 12.

    Do you like to travel outside your country?

    Yes.

    Ever heard of the band Unified Theory?
  • hedonist
    hedonist Posts: 24,524
    Yes! We adore Blind Melon, and so bought their first (only?) album when it came out. Not bad at all, just didn't connect with it enough to search out more of their music.

    Are you a fan of Blind Melon?

    Looks like Unified Theory has 2 albums now. I've never listened to either album, but I've always loved their song "Wither" off of the first album. Lead singer has a pretty neat voice. So... My 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon connection to that band is that I went to grade school with the lead singer's younger sister. He was always competing in battle of the bands. I went to a birthday party in the 8th grade and his band was playing there..... I just listened to "Wither" again, I still like it.

    Same question...

    My previous remark just happens to be the answer to your question. Unified Theory.

    Do you have a 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon with anyone we might know?
  • hedonist
    hedonist Posts: 24,524
    One degree with a couple of folks some might know!

    (and I love Cessna and California)

    Ever be surprised by an emotional reaction of yours?

    ^^^^ Hmmm...interesting

    I just gave those two songs a listen. They sounded pretty good. I never noticed it until now, but his voice kind of reminds me of Geddy Lee in a weird sort of way...

    I'm not as surprised, but more annoyed with my reactions sometimes... Sometimes when I get really angry I start to shake so bad that my knees give out and I have to sit down. It's hard to get your point across when your falling down.

    Have you ever been so angry that you've felt your adrenalin pulse in the veins of your wrists?
  • hedonist
    hedonist Posts: 24,524
    I can see the Geddy tie-in, though I did think they were trying to go for a Hoon-like voice.

    Your answer - I believe I mentioned at some point we have some likenesses. Your reaction can be added to the mix. Several situations trigger that in me and the more familiar that feeling becomes, the more I want to rid myself of it.

    My answer - it's more like an all-out adrenaline surge, generously dispersed throughout my body, then mind...or vice versa. Such fun.

    Ever done an anonymous random act of kindness?
