Goin’ Fishin’: Answers to The Friday Four

 

For Rory’s Friday Four Questions

Do you think society could survive without governmental authority or structure?
No, but it might survive better with a better structure. I think the past four years have proven what happens when the wrong person is given authority and certainly pointed out the weaknesses in our governmental system in the U.S. It has been a shock to see just how bigoted and short-sighted approximately half of the American population is. I’d hate to see those people given free rein. We’ve already seen it, to a degree.
Do we really need all the technology we have?
Clearly, we don’t, but we’ve become dependent upon it and it has become a game of sorts to see just how far we can go. Game urinals in Japan where you control the game action with your urine stream are a perfect example.
Everyone has a passion that can absorb them for hours and that includes talking about it with others for hours if left unchecked – do you have such a passion and if so – what is it?
Art and writing. I get so engrossed that six hours can pass and seem like a half hour. I can’t imagine life without these compulsions.
What have you found yourself thinking a lot of late and that seemingly will not leave your brain alone?
Death and how/who will deal with all my stuff. You can have no idea. Books that I’ve written and done nothing with.. sitting in files. The utter horror that so many people supported Trump. and still do.

Here are Rory’s Friday Four Questions for this week:

The Friday Four
Ah questions, questions, questions – what is it about you and questions Rory?
Simple, l just like asking questions.
Some relatively simple ones today for this Friday however…
1 What three senses could you NOT live without? Discuss why…sight–because every year I live, being able to see the beauties of art and nature become more important to me, sense of hearing, to be able to converse with friends and listen to books and films, and a bit of a quandry since I know without smell there is no sense of taste, but nonetheless, I pick taste, hoping that won’t be taken into account.  The reason for taste? Chocolate, of course.
2 What is your favourite of these two and why? Pen or Pencil. Pen–a rolling writer or felt-tip pen, because I can scrawl faster with them and change my mind less.
3 What are your top 3 colours and why are they your favourites? Golden yellow, cobalt or sky blue and orange. And, the greens in nature, although I never choose green as a color to decorate with. Strange, as I love to be surrounded by the natural greens of nature. 
4 Are you able to list 10 basic smells and if so what are they?  Not sure what you mean by basic smells, but I will list my favorite ones: green olives, toasting bread, chocolate, brewing coffee, baking cookies, spaghetti sauce, petrichor, butterscotch, babies, popcorn.
