Have you ever broken a bone?

Clearly, when most people break a bone it's under avoidable conditions.  Things like not looking before crossing, bad judgment, alcohol, and immaturity play a large role in the answers we received.  One brought tears to our eyes.  Read on:

"I've never broken a bone but I think I fractured my hip when I was seven.  I was in front of my house when I was hit by a car right in front of my twin sister.  Imagine, in slow motion, two little twin girls in catholic  school girl uniforms.  One makes a dash across the street, thinking she can make it before that car passes...the other twin watches in horror.  Seeing the car speed towards me, my sister yelled 'KATE NOOOOOO!'  But alas, it was too late.  To make matters worse, my dad slipped a disk in his back running down the stairs to see what happened."

Okay, you caught us.  That was our Editor-in-Chief's response, but we just had to share it with you all.

What color looks really crappy on you?

The consensus is that light colors blow on most of us.  Especially unpopular are pink, yellow and light purple.  A number of you cited Easter-ish colors as being particularly heinous on you.  Here are some of your answers:

"White. Everything ends up looking tent-er-iffic."

"Purple and/or pink.  Makes me wanna puke."

"Any hue or tone of yellow. It's terrible on fish belly white skin like mine."

Well, at least that means you're staying away from the harmful rays of the sun.

Got plans for New Years?  Where are you going to be?

Well...not many people answered this question.  It seems like a couple of you have got a plan, and a good one at that.  And then there's the rest of you.  So much for these supposed hotel rooms booking up early and leaving no  room for the procrastinator.

Of the people that have plans already, there were no patterns.   Choices vary greatly, ranging from Providence, Rhode Island's First Night celebration, to the South of France in front of a cozy fire, to the Party of the Century in Rio de Janeiro.  Just remember if you drink, designate a driver.  Better yet, party at home and make everyone sleep there.  Hey!  That sounds like a plan to us!

First R-rated movie?

Most of you claimed The Exorcist as your first R-rated movie.  Some of you were pretty darn young when you saw it for the first time.   Salem's Lot, Saturday Night Fever and Quest for Fire were other favorites.  For a lot of you, your parents or a friend's parents were involved in the experience.  We've got to share this one with you:

"Glenn's mother walked up to the ticket booth and said 'Four for Porky's please', setting a precedent for many Friday nights and R-rated movies to come.  She went back to her car to wait the 91 minutes till it was over.  Glenn and I saw our first big screen breasts...in the process pulling one over on the system."

For you, cremation or burial?

From all the answers we received on this question, it's evident you people have really given this matter a lot of thought.  Cremation definitely prevailed as the dominant answer.  Here are some of your intriguing answers:

"I want my body burned at sea.  I guess that counts as cremation except while it's being burned I want the pyre to sink.  So it's not quite burned but I'm not quite buried.  I really just want to do it to scare the hell out of the fish.  I hate fish."

"Definitely cremation.  My husband wants to be thrown to hungry lions at the zoo.  Reduce, reuse, recycle."

We got one answer that simply deserved a page of its own.  It's definitely worth taking a look at.
