Introductions, the 90s Way.

A photo with today's date? Since (to my knowledge) no ransom money has been demanded from the Steemit community for my release, I will not be providing such "proof of life". If anyone reads this at all, and then decides that a prostitute robot from the future might be impersonating me, that person can alert the authorities.

Having met my husband on MySpace, I can think of no better way to introduce myself than with a tried-and-true survey.

Whoa, that is quite a list and some of those I'm not answering. I had to look up Emetophobia. Last time I vomited was in 1982, in a plane, coming back from Rarotonga, when I had food poisoning. And I plan to never do it again.

Oh dear, your episode on the plane sounds like quite a nightmare!

This survey was so ridiculous to start out with, that I actually cut most of it out. Designed for teenagers who were SO EXCITED about the internet, no doubt.

Only teenagers would have that much time to kill! It was horrid. I sat there with the bag praying "please let me not throw up, please let me not throw up right here on the plane" But the instant it took off I had no control at all, and didn't care who was around. Poor people. I hope none of them had emetophobia.
