Thanks to Greg for the questions!

1. Who the hell do you want to be?

Well, Dictator of Earth, as you guessed. That or an escaped biotech creation designed for military use in compendium with my faithful D.O.G.’s. Oh, no, wait, that’s a secret.

2. You can have the very best meal in all Creation once, or the 100th best meal in all Creation every month. Which do you choose?

The very best meal in all creation once. The 100th best meal in all creation is what, something in a can?

3. Whatever happened to real live mermaids?

You know, according to Hans there, they were more undead than anything else. No souls and all. After that, they got some better press with the Disney version, but then they fell in with a bad crowd. After the first season of Real Live Mermaids, they’d pretty much ruined their reputations and everyone believed that it was all special effects. So the show died, and they fell into obscurity again. Official word has it that there are no real live mermaids. Or vampires. Or bogeymen. Or Dick Clark.

4. The power of telepathy or the power of telekinesis. Pick one and say why you picked it.

Telekenisis, of course! Listening to what people say all day is bad enough; I can’t imagine going through a day hearing what they were thinking without committing some major act of violence. Besides, who’d say no to a truly universal remote?

5. You're Dictator of the Earth. What's your first decree?

All your geckos are belong to me.
