Monday Mission

1. Have you ever had, or known someone who has had, a "Mid-Life Crisis?" What
happened? Is there such a thing or is it just an excuse? no. but I think that
there is such a thing



2. Have you ever had a dream so vivid, that you woke up with certain emotions
towards a person for what happened in your dream, even though they didn't do a
thing to deserve it in real life? What did you feel and and what was the dream?
Not towards a person that I knew but that I have never met. I wanted to find a
person like the one in my dream



3. I think everyone is creative in some way or other. Some people draw, some
play music, some write, some cook, some build or sew. How do you express your
creativity? Have you ever made money from it? Computer things(especially web
pages) no



4. Speaking of creativity, I display some of my artwork on my website. It is
there for everyone to view, but if I learned it was stolen and used commercially
without my permission or being paid, I would be furious. Has anything you
created ever been stolen? How did you handle it? fortunately no



5. I imagine the question above is similar to what the music industry is going
through with file sharing. Do you think downloading music via file sharing is
"stealing?" Is taking songs without paying for them any different than someone
taking your work without your permission?  yes



6. How do you feel about the RIAA targeting everyone (parents, teenagers,
grandparents) who share songs over the Internet with expensive lawsuits? Should
they be selective in who they subpoena, or should all who violate copyrights be
treated equally? Or are they going too far? Should the music be free? It would
be nice if music is free. also I think everyone should be treated equally



7. On the same thought, what do you think pay-per-song concepts such as iMusic
and BuyMusic.com? Will they succeed? Is this the solution? If not, what is? 
I like it. I hope they do succeed



BONUS: Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday?
