Monday Mission



1. In my work Outlook inbox, I have 343 unread email messages. Most of them are
newsletters I've subscribed to but not had time to read. It is a bit

intimidating at this point, and I am tempted to delete them all and start fresh.
But I am that way in many things, relationships, art projects, and more. Have


you even just totally trashed something you were working on because it wasn't
going the way you wanted? What happened? Did you start over again? Was it

better? lots of things. usually I start over again and it turns out better.



2. My friend was contacted out of the blue by someone from High School at his
work e-mail. He wondered how someone found him and I told him to try putting his
own name in Google.com to see what happens. Have you ever contacted an old
friend out of the blue over the internet? How did it go? Have any old friends or
lovers ever contacted you? Did it flatter you or freak you out? Yes once. She
only contacted me once.



3. I am the forgetful type. I need lists. I need notes. Oddly, I've found if I
write something down to remember it, the mere act of writing makes me remember
it and I seldom ever refer back to the paper again. What is the most important
thing that you have ever forgotten? Did it have any negative results? How did it
all turn out? lots of stuff at work etc. Not many negative results but it's
embarrassing.



4. In America, we are currently suffering through an overdose of "reality"
programs on television. Survivor, Fear Factor, The Amazing Race, Big

Brother, The Bachelor and so on. Which of the "reality" television programs do
you think you would have a chance at winning? Why? Would you ever actually
consider signing up for one? Have you? none and I wouldn't want to be on one
either



5. Do you allow commenting on your blog? Why? Have you ever considered
removing/adding that function? What was one of the worst situations you've found
yourself in due to blog comments?  yes no not many people comment on my
blog



6. Have you found any cool shareware/freeware applications/scripts/tools
recently? Yeah? Tell me more! lots too many to list.



7. I've mentioned it here before, but one of my favorite terms I've heard a
Minster use was when he refereed to a "pet sin." Which is when you live your
life right for the most part, but you have this one secret thing, this one bad
thing that you do that is wrong for you to do, that you won't give up, even
though you know you should (and sometime criticize others for doing). Now I am
not asking to know what it is, but do you have a "pet sin?" When did it start?
Are you trying to give it up, or are you just reconciled to the fact that you
will always have it? Would anyone think less of you if they knew about it? not
really



BONUS: Am I loud enough? WHAT?
