| I just don't think there's a cure for that. My husband and I are both scared to death of spiders and centipedes, and our son is scared of about any kind of bug. |

| I would like white hair too. The best I can do is light blond. I'd probably ruin my hair if I got it any lighter. |

| I do, though I like being around my husband and son. Otherwise I prefer to keep about a 5 foot people-free radius around me. |

| You seem to have an odd definition of Asperger's if you include Kurt Cobain and Jim Carrey. Dunno who the anime guy is. |

| I'm a huge film buff. But I know what you mean. I rock at Trivial Pursuit, I can totally score like all the pie pieces but 1 in a few turns. But sports and leisure is my bane! Damn you, green pie! |
