Omigosh how exciting! Congratulations, Karla and thank you again for being so dedicated about feeding our daily addiction
If you could try doing anything once, what would it be ? I wish I knew! Still not sure what I want to be when I grow up.
Is there something you have never done or tried that folks would say "really your kidding" if they found out ? Used to get that all the time about not swimming but now I'll have to find something else! Oh, I guess sometimes I get that over never having gone to camp.
What is the weirdest/funniest thing you have or have had under your bed? Everyone's probably saying this but the only things I can think of that come close to this category are sex toys

Today's Question(s):
If you could try doing anything once, what would it be ?
I would have to do two things. First I would live to take off an aircraft carrier and go ballistic for 30,000 ft.
Next I would answer the original QOTD. It was a little hard to find because it was not call QOTD then but here it is.
Today is World Kindness Day, your challenge is to be EXTRA kind today!
So let us know what kindness you bestowed.
I think I am going to share some plants with the kids at school.

The all time funniest QOTD thread had to be this one
If you could try doing anything once, what would it be ?
I think it would have to be one of those deep sea little sub things (like they use to explore the sea wrecks). I would love to see the fish and undersea critters but not expose myself to sharks
Of course for this one time you would have the skill,training, magical powers, money and so on needed to give it a shot.
The money would help and magical powers would help too in case it sprung a leak.
Bonus Question:

Not really!

Nothing! Dust bunnies come out once a week when I vacuum under there and I don't use it for storage.

Happy QOTD Anniversary, Karla! And thank you for gathering such a widely diverse bunch of folks each day to chat together - this is truly one of the things I look forward to each day.
Oh, and by the way, what kind of seeds did you buy??
Today's Question(s):
If you could try doing anything once, what would it be?
Of course for this one time you would have the skill,training, magical powers, money and so on needed to give it a shot.
Ok, this really would take magic (or possibly surgery) in addition to skill and training but I would love to be a low bass and sing the role of the Commendatore in the penultimate scene (trio between Don Giovanni, Leporello and the Commendatore) of Mozart's Don Giovanni.
Bonus Question:
Is there something you have never done or tried that folks would say "really you're kidding" if they found out?
Well, let's see. I'd like to think that I've had a reasonably interesting life, but I've never tried downhill skiing, never been much west of Texas in the US, and I've never been sky-diving. And I've never tried lutefisk, but I don't have any desire to do so, either!

Geez, Karla, these may have been your favorites, but they're hard to answer! I don't think I've ever had anything weird under my bed.
Edit: the spouse just reminded me that way back in the day, we used to keep his SCA weaponry under the bed. I guess that would probably count as the weirdest thing we've ever kept there.
