Friday Five

1. If your car/bike is wrecked (if your mass transit service goes belly-up), do you know what you would do to replace it, perhaps even have the car or bike you want already picked out?
I don't have anything picked out. I drive my cars until they croak, and mine is only a couple of years old.

2. A client/friend gives you a lottery ticket, which wins you a prize worth (after taxes) ten times as much money as you earned/received last year. What will you do with it?
I would give the client/friend some part of it. For the rest, I would invest half in a mutual fund and put half in a money market fund or account.

3. Fight or flee?
Usually I would flee. Depends on what's at stake.

4. Someone performs a random act of kindness that is exactly what you need on a bad day. If you wish to pay them back, would you write a poem, bake, buy something, or what?
Bake something. We don't eat dessert around here much anymore, so I like to bake when I get a chance.

5. Your manager commands you to pick a charity to contribute to. Do you resist? If not, which charity would be your first choice?
MD Anderson Children's Art Project.
