Hooray for Filkerdave - he was nice enough to come up with five questions for me to answer!

1. What fictional character would you most like to be, and why? - The one that springs to mind first is Deanna Troi from ST:TNG. When I was a kid I always thought it would be really cool to be empathic.
2. What’s the coolest thing about your SideKick that you DIDN’T know about before you bought it? - I’m not sure if I knew about the terminal client capability when I bought it. It is definitely awesome to be able to MOO from my Sidekick. Plus I like that the light flashes several different colors!
3. Is there any Hello Kitty stuff that you just have no desire to own, ever? What is it? - The only thing I can come up with is candy/food…because I eat it and then it’s gone and I don’t have it anymore!
4. Have you ever tried to learn another form of sign besides ASL? (Is there a French version? I assume there must be.) - Yes indeed, there are dozens of sign languages used all over the world. Funnily enough, LSF (French SL) and ASL are more closely related than ASL and BSL (British SL)! It’s unlikely I would need to learn LSF unless I were going to work in France, because if I were just there as a tourist the two languages are mutually intelligible enough that most American signers can get by in France. As for learning another sign language, the closest I’ve come is trying to learn British fingerspelling, but it’s so different from ASL that I only remember the vowels.
5. What place do you and A want to go on your next big vacation? - Japan!

If you would like me to ask you five questions too, please feel free to comment.
