My Friday Five for February 21, 2003

  1. What is your most prized material possession?
    Geez... That's a tough one... First thing to pop into my head was my TiBook, then I decided that I'd rather get by without that than without my XJ700 Maxim, but that could just be because I have gotten by without it for the last few months. (Damn weather's too cold to be out riding...) No other candidates spring to mind, though.

  2. What item, that you currently own, have you had the longest?
    Mackie, a tattered blue blanket that's about as old as I am.

  3. Are you a packrat?
    Oh, yes. Big time.

  4. Do you prefer a spic-and-span clean house? Or is some clutter necessary to avoid the appearance of a museum?
    I'm not a neat freak, but neither do I consciously try to keep some clutter around. It just happens - see the preceding answer. "A place for everything" may be a nice ideal, but I have more things than places.

  5. Do the rooms in your house have a theme? Or is it a mixture of knick-knacks here and there?
    Nope, no themes. Very few knick-knacks either. Just piles of stuff - books, CDs, computer parts, Lego bits, etc.
