1. We're so hardly diverse compared to these countries... I find Poland a pack of cornflakes or whatever that only "may contain traces of" other cultures, ethnicities or religions.
2. Nothing really extraordinary: when listening to my favourite music.
3. Cheese, olives, aubergine, artichoke, asparagus, ham, chicken, pineapple...
4. Oh noez, there are at least 20 of them!!!
5. Dull - sounds very adequate with its meaning.

Late at night in my chair.

Thank you, Aneta :)
1. If the U.S. is a "melting pot" and Canada is a "salad" what is Poland?
Pierogi z miesem.
2. When or where do you feel the most inspired?
I get creative thoughts sometimes when I'm hypnogogic, like a lot of people do, but I'm inspired to do things when I'm asked in some way to share in some way. I'm not always successful, depending on what it needs to be.
3. What are your favorite pizza toppings?
(I like these answers [and the questions, as always]). Ham and cheese (mozzarella), and almost any combination of several other things. I don't dig pineapple, in general, but you can always pick off things you don't like from pizza.
4. What is the most memorable book you've read?
For my working memory, the textbooks, and for memorable in the spiritual sense: I don't read much creative writing. For some time I liked some Czeslaw Milosz books, but essays. Not poetry. "Cosmos," "The Dragons of Eden," "Broca's Brain," by Carl Sagan. I can name them because I read only average amounts.
5. What is your least favorite English word?
"Hundret," as this broadcaster keeps saying while I'm sitting here, but maybe because I don't appreciate her. "Mashed potatos," as I say it because it gives me some articulation trouble. Makes me have to pay attention. I don't know what a Speech-Language Pathologist would call it.

Edit: It's funny. The Google Translator is on automatically but I hardly ever need it so it's annoying me. I have "Aneta thanks to Frank for these." So I better edit that :)Joj Y. edytował(a) ten post dnia 26.03.10 o godzinie 14:29

Vegetarian stew with pork and beef and tofu cheese served with Diet Pepsi
2. When or where do you feel the most inspired?

There is no "where" or "when". There just has to be this one sparkle that comes from nowhere. And that happens all the time, fortunately :)
3. What are your favorite pizza toppings?

Spicy tomato sauce not based on ketchup ;)
4. What is the most memorable book you've read?
I really can't choose one particular. There were many I really enjoyed.
5. What is your least favorite English word?
Sixth (for pronunciation)
Carcass (the sound and the actual meaning do not match at all to me!)
