The different air currents, do they still throw sand over the side to raise the balloon to a higher altitude? Tee O - Glad to hear you made a personal appearance!

Enthusiastic, even. I had always wondered how they directed Hot Air balloons. Turns out the air currents flow different directions at different altitudes, so the pilot raises and lowers the balloon to change direction. That's why they are seldom used in hurricanes.

As for children.. do I remember correctly? Did you say you have children? If so, then perhaps you did make a contribution. Tee O - Now a hot air balloon is one form of travel I would love to try.

But, I sing so poorly that I thought I should probably remove some of the other checkmarks. I also thought the "had children" was a tough question for a guy.

The reason I'm asking is that I did a quite a bit of skinny-dipping outdoors in my twenties.

What really makes you the individual you are is how you experienced all those things and what effect they had on you.... Somehow it surprises me that you've never sung a solo or duet in public.
