A little survey to start... The QOTD gets posted at different times according to the convenience of the questioner. I usually post the Tuesday questions around this time of day (see time stamp above) but can post them earlier or a little later if most people would prefer. When do you prefer to answer the questions –
The afternoon before
The evening before
Early in the morning – earlier than the time stamp above
Right around the time stamp above
A couple of hours later than the time stamp above
(I can’t do it much later than that, as it’s bedtime here!)
Doesn’t matter, I will answer the QOTD regardless of when they are posted
Extra Credit Question:
Frances the Flight Fairy will give you an air ticket to any place within three hours of where you now live. Where will you go, and why? Since Frances is an imaginary fairy, you can answer the question even if you don’t like flying! 3 hours won't get me to California, so guess I'll go North, maybe NYC, because I haven't been there.
Bonus Question:
Agree or disagree (or more if you like) –
I currently have to take medication on a regular basis.
I don’t own a warm coat. Disagree
Corn flakes are one of my favourite breakfast cereals.
My short-term memory seems to be fading quite rapidly. Disagree
I don’t like shellfish. Disagree
Just for fun:
Do you use all or most of your fingers when typing on a keyboard, or do you ‘hunt and peck’? All 10 of them

Good morning everyone and welcome to QOTD for Tuesday, July 30th, 2013. Have finally recovered from my trip to Sydney, the big 70th birthday party (not mine!), and the various shenanigans associated with hanging out with a big group of old friends for several days. It was fun, but we all agreed we can’t keep up quite like we used to!

Doesn’t matter, I will answer the QOTD regardless of when they are posted < This one. I answer the questions as soon as I'm able in the morning; often when I first get to my office, before starting time. That would be about 3.5 hours after the time stamp on your OP, Kobber. It works out fine for me the time you do it, because the questions are waiting for me whenever I can get to them in the morning.
