    Hi, I'm dropping in from the blog fest (nice to meet you!) and am your newest follower. I'm at: www.kittiehoward.blogspot.com

    Loved your answers to the questions.

    I also enjoy Daniel Silva's mysteries.

    I really enjoyed your answers! I can tell right away you're a horse-riding enthusiast. Loved the answer to #3. And how interesting you'd like to be a monk. I've always wanted to try the vow of silence thing -- but don't know how that'd work in my present life. Maybe once the kids move out...?

    Thanks for playing along!

    What would you pursue as a monk?

    KatOwens: Insect Collector said...

    I love these- though I admit I am guilty on staring on occasion (I do try to look as if I'm not).
    Your #10 is wonderful.

    Ah, I bet many of us would like to hear the answer you gave at ten when we get to heaven.

    OK, do the horses actually make noise when they graze or was that your way of saying silence? Either way it sounds good.
    Thanks for sharing your answers.
