1. Do you receive an Easter lily as a gift or buy yourself one every Easter?

2. If you heard a stranger say something inappropriate about another stranger in public, do/would you say something to the offender directly, say something loud enough so they know you heard or would you just walk on by?

3. How old were you when you traveled to another location for a few days by yourself without parents? Where did you go and did you go with friends?

4. Have you ever received or given a chick, duckling or bunny as a gift for Easter? Should sales of these three creatures be prohibited during the weeks/days before and after Easter to eliminate ‘throw away’ pets by those who do not have the means to care properly for these darling animals?

5. Putting the current state of the economy aside, do/have you play(ed) in the investment world?

-> I received an Easter lily last year from my son. This year I decided to treat myself. I love them.

2. If you heard a stranger say something inappropriate about another stranger in public, do/would you say something to the offender directly, say something loud enough so they know you heard or would you just walk on by?

-> I have made remarks loud enough that the person experiencing verbal diarrhea knows they have been heard and their comment was inappropriate. Did it this week when an elderly man made a nasty comment about a woman with tattoos. What is really sad is that he was probably the same age as my parents and KNEW better.

3. How old were you when you traveled to another location for a few days by yourself without parents? Where did you go and did you go with friends?

-> Not counting times that I wandered around city by myself or with friends, my first trip was when I was 18 with hubby right after we got married.

4. Have you ever received or given a chick, duckling or bunny as a gift for Easter? Should sales of these three creatures be prohibited during the weeks/days before and after Easter to eliminate ‘throw away’ pets by those who do not have the means to care properly for these darling animals?

-> I have owned these animals, but only because we lived on a farm and they were never for gifts. I believe sales of these animals should be prohibited during holidays to anyone. It breaks my heart to see chicks dyed like they were Easter eggs and these babies given as gifts and then abandoned. Puppies and kittens given as gifts are fine as long as everybody is in agreement prior to obtaining the animal and are prepared to care for it.

5. Putting the current state of the economy aside, do/have you play(ed) in the investment world?

-> Yes, I have and I still do.
