I kind of think I know your choice, P. Let me change it a bit -
Space may feel closed in- no basket ball players - USE UP TOO MUCH OXYGEN.
Loud music would be stressy- no heavy metal yes I know- what ever)
People get too dramatic- no twilight actors
Photo opportunities - NO MODELS
So-
1)Stephen Hawking- good conversation. Clear voice, does not take up too much space and oxygen all around. He could definitely work out how to get the elevator working.
2) Price (if alive-RIP), small, can sing in tune, smart does not waste my oxygen,
Also photogenic and afterwards I can say 'I was stuck in a lift with Prince the other day and he said....'.
3)Lara Croft. Very smart.
4) Tara Moss- smart, good writer, philanthropist
4) Someone who did not win an election somewhere recently- the topic- 'why?'.
5) **** Hari- spy (kind of), street smarts, survivor.(well until the last bit).

Christmas actually does not seem all that bad, somehow.

Phx, good choices, I think. You should add HP. Oh, wait, that's my obsession. Would be cool to be stuck with J. K. Rowling.

Oh what a night.
Mid December in '16.
What a very sleepless time for me.
As I remember, what a night.

Yep, Purp. Lots of space and oxygen Jeez you put out a funny and we go all weird on you. So who else can we choose from. Steph H would be crap on an Island- he'd get bogged.

I've always wanted to get two fish and name them Gale and Peeta.

Man I hope someone gets my references.

Okay. Here is the step 3 prayer. Ignore the God part and replace it with whatever your higher power is. SR, nature, AA, John Lennon, Harry Potter. (I threw HP in there because of his initials).

"GOD, I OFFER MYSELF TO THEE - TO BUILD WITH ME AND TO DO WITH ME AS THOU WILT. RELIEVE ME OF THE BONDAGE OF SELF, THAT I MAY BETTER DO THY WILL. TAKE AWAY MY DIFFICULTIES, THAT VICTORY OVER THEM MAY BEAR WITNESS TO THOSE I WOULD HELP OF THY POWER, THY LOVE, AND THY WAY OF LIFE. MAY I DO THY WILL ALWAYS! "


MY PRAYER IS THAT MY HIGHER POWER USES ME TO SHOW HOW GREAT HIS GRACE IS AND HELP OTHERS WANT WHAT HE HAS GIVEN ME. I WANT TO BE A LIVING EXAMPLE.

Have neither read nor seen any Harry Potter, GOT, Hunger Games, among others so I don't really have an opinion. I will say I'm not that interested though. Could probably get into Walking Dead for a while but never got around to it. I did start on Stranger Things and am liking it so far.

Unpopular opinion, never cared for The Beatles. I'm a Zeppelin guy.

Negative consequences of drinking have pretty much all been listed:

-Pain (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual)
-Shame
-Cost
-Isolation
-Loss of self and others
-Anxiety and depression
-Intense Malaise
-Lack of growth
-Loss, even temporarily, of potential
-Anger
-Added stress beyond normal day to day
-Altered thinking
-Lack of interest in lots of things or all things
-Lost time
-Poor sleep, health, etc.
-I could go on...

Positives: One only, escape. Invariably for me however, that boomerangs back around to the list above. It works, but only temporarily, and nothing changes about that which one tries to escape. Those issues remain and the can has simply been kicked down the road a little bit.

Lost Time is a good one Thirteenth. A big result of all of the others. Agreed. Lost time...

One of our radio shows just released some cool new t-shirts.....I ordered one for my sister, so I have officially begun Christmas shopping! Only I got one for me too.....I do this every year! Find really cool gifts then buy two and keep one for myself....such a brat!

Just throwing this out there....I have a fellow rocker-chick-concert-buddy who lives in Texas. GnR have two dates in Texas next September, so I told my friend I might fly there to go to one of the shows with her if I don't make it to the one in Miami.....Casey don't make us hunt you down!!!!
