Thunder. We had Supergirl, then Andromeda. She just seemed third rate.
SAPBM,
You suddenly have a week off of work and an extra $2,000. What will you do?

Heading for Nepal and Sri Lanka! I would use my vacation leave to add a few more days - five, I think. I have always wanted to see both countries, and - besides India - they are the closest to the Philippines.
SAPBM,
Same question.

I'd rent a car and spend 3 days driving cross country, then spend 4 days driving back home.

Being asked to answer the same question as someone else. (just kidding!) People who have very short tempers SAPBM, What music do you like to listen to while working at your job?
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

I usually don't, because the music tends to stop me from hearing the phone ring or from noticing when someone is trying to speak with me.
But when I do listen, it tends to be upbeat music that energizes me.
SAPBM,
What is the coolest super-power you have read about/encountered so far?

This is one a friend made up for a role-playing game. The power was perfect balance. The hero could walk a tightrope in a hurricane. The character's name was The Weeble. For those who never hear of them, weebles were little play figures that would always stay upright. The jingle went "Weebles wooble but they don't fall down!"
SAPBM,
I am going back to the trolley problem, but with my twist. OK the original trolley problem is you see a trolley coming downhill out of control. You also see 5 people tied to the track up ahead and they will be killed by the trolley. You are near a switch that will divert the trolley onto a side track, but you see one person tied to that track.
My twist is this. You are a time traveler and have traveled to 1932 Berlin. Oh no there is that runaway trolley. You see the 5 people. There's the switch and this time no one is on the side track. But before you pull the switch, you see that one of the 5 people is Adolph Hitler. But tied right beside him is a relative of yours (not your favorite relative nor your least favorite relative). So, do you pull the switch and save Hitler or not pull the switch and kill your relative and three other presumably innocent people?
Big Dog! Big Dog! Bow Wow Wow!

I would pull the switch -
1) My relative being there is not natural, and if that relative died the timestream would be out of whack.
2) Oh, and Hitler isn't supposed to die yet.
SAPBM,

Dinner and talking. Once, we went to an archery range. I have a group that I like going to amusement parks with.

I put honey and lemon, lime or calamansi in my water,
and get a nice big bowl of hot soup.

Ideally, I would want to work in healthcare consulting. Long-term, I would love to run a hospital, maybe as a CEO. SAPBM, Same question

Travel show host and writer. I could travel the world for free, with a staff to help me if I want (especially with annoying paperwork), Blaze could tag along, and life would be so exciting.

I don't know if this was my weirdest dream...
I was on the subway reading when I started to nod off and I had this dream.
Before me is a blue-grey metal bust, but instead of a face, there is a round hole. Water suddenly splashes into the hole and the edges of the hole suddenly become rusted flakes. A voice then says "Did you not think that the water would do that?"
SAPBM,
What would your summer plans be if you had the whole summer off and unlimited wealth?

Oh, where do I begin? I've only experienced snow a handful of times...
Snowball fights, walking in the snow, sitting by a fireplace and drinking hot chocolate and wine...

Not having snow and cold. Also swimming in the ocean and smelling the salt air.

Do you aspire to any form of creative expression but just never had the nerve to try?

I would love to try theatre. I'm a terrible dancer, though.

I had an idea for the following once, but never thought to pursue it. I thought of an ET phone, like the Mickey Mouse phone. But instead of rings, you would hear "phone, phone".
SAPBM,
You have complete creative control to develop a TV show that the network has already ordered a complete season of, and will definitely air at least 10 episodes, even if it's a complete bomb. Describe your show.
