12 Questions to Get to Know @daltono “Fun Re-Introduction”

daltono (75) in challenge • 7 years ago (edited)

My friend @ameliabartlett invited me to participate in the #twelvequestions #challenge.

So I have accepted the offer to answer some questions! Hopefully my answers will help you get a better feel for who I am.

1.

What meal would you have before heading to outer space?

Fruit Feast

Dragonfruit/Pitaya, Georgia Peaches, Jackfruit, Durian, Bananas, Raspberries, Blackberries, Blueberries, Pineapple, and a few Mangoes. That should be enough. All of which need to be picked at the perfect moment during peak season.

Unless there was some way to grow fruit in space, I would be without fresh fruit completely up there. Dried and frozen just are not the same. I would get my final taste in absolute abundance.

2.

What section of the newspaper would you be?

Comic Strips

I never even read the comics growing up. I just know that I would most likely only fit in there when it’s comes to the newspaper.

3.

If you were immortal, what age would you choose to stop aging at and why?

33

It is a solid number. By then, I will have fully developed in many aspects of life, by that time. Not feeling old, neither too young. All of my hormones and bodily functions should still be excellent at that age too.

4.

What sport would you play professionally?

Basketball

I played several sports growing up (basketball, soccer, baseball, and a few more just for fun.) Basketball was my favorite. The games are not too long, the pace stays relatively high the entire game. Plus every single possession there is the likelihood that you will touch the ball. This gives many opportunities to do something amazing that will never be forgotten.

5.

If you had to go back in time to live the rest of your life where/when would you go?

Ancient Egypt

I’m in love with the architecture and asthetics of this time. They seemed to have been an advanced civilization. Many of their customs are drastically different than what I am used to now, some are similar. I also have never really been to any deserts, so that would be interesting.

6.

If time and money were no barrier, what would you create?

Fresh Water For the Entire World

I would set up giant cisterns all over the world. They would be made from some new element that releases the daily vitamins/minerals into the water once the sun makes contact with the element. This would be always, because the water would be solar distilled as to make sure it was 100% free of all impurities. Much like how water absorbs particles from plastic bottles, especially when they are left in the sun. Except this time around the leeching would be a postive thing for humanity.

7.

Have you ever completed anything on your bucket list?

Sky Diving

Yes I have jumped out of an airplane before. I actually did it the very first time I was inside of an airplane. It was amazing. I even wrote a blog about it with photos. You can view that here.

8.

What would be the most surprising scientific discovery imaginable?

Outer Space Does Not Exist

Scientists would say something like “Everything we thought was in outer space is actually in the ocean. The night sky was just a reflection of the ocean.” Wouldn’t that be weird?

9.

What is you’re favorite animal?

Dolphin

Can you believe I have never even touched a dolphin? I have seen them before in the wild at least, never up close though. I want to catch a ride on one, I have done that in my dreams. I wrote a blog about dolphins actually. That can be found here.

10.

If you had to teach a class on one thing, what would you teach?

How to Smoke Marijuana

This would be so easy for me to teach. The process is very simple. I definitely do not smoke like I did when I was a few years younger. However I could most certainly still explain to some newbies how to get lifted. The class would be full of smiles and laughter.

11.

Which musical talent (alive or dead) would play at your funeral?

Excision

I know I could trust Excision to properly drop the bass in my honor. When I saw him live earlier this year, it was so much fun. I wrote a blog about it. It can be found here.

12.

What movie have you seen recently that you would recommend, and why?

Black Panther (2018)

This movie does a great job of showing the possible technological advances that we could see in the future. They even go as far as saying some are already in existence. The film is awesome and well worth the watch, even if you never get into superhero movies.

I notice that now. We must be on the same frequency today. Or always. Not that I had any doubts about that.
Once I get another break at work I’ll be sure to read yours and leave my thoughts in the comments.

The most pertinent question. Believe me, I have thought about it every day since being back. I have a great idea, and will be pursuing it. I haven’t had much time to film anything through the week. Maybe this weekend. I’m also waiting for some construction to get done around the house so that I have a perfect place to film.

You will be the first to know whenever episode one is ready.

Wow this literally opened my mind! What if space really was a reflection of the ocean! They are so similar. That's amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this! Your answer about fruit and the metaculous details of the fruit having to be in it's ripest state, I totally agree 🙃

I’m glad you decided to read through this (and hopefully do your own version.)

You never know about the whole space/ocean thing. It’s fun to ponder that.

The fruit feast sounds decadent right about now 🍌🍉🍑🍍

Hey dude! That’s for participating in the ‘challenge’! I had a lot of fun writing the questions, and enjoyed reading you’re answers. I’m new around here, so I appreciate the support.

These are interesting and intriguing questions I have never been asked before. It would be a great way to see how one mind's work. The only similarity with me is the dolphin. I feel it is my spirit animal if there is such a thing. You seem like someone who have done and seen a lot of things. You seem like a pragmatic. Your idea of water for all is brilliant. About Black Panther, I can't seem able to finish the movie. I have a copy saved in my pc. It's either I felt asleep in different parts at different times that I tried watching it or something is distracting me.

daltono (75) · 7 years ago

I agree, these is a fantastic questionnaire.
🐬s are amazing!
I haven’t done everything, but I have done many things.
Thank you for the water compliment, the idea came to me the other day.
Black Panther is so worth finishing, you must be really sleepy when you have tried to watch it. There isn’t very many boring parts in that film.

leeart (67) · 7 years ago

I will watch Black Panther now by no means haha! And probably catch up on some other movies as well.

Great post! It's a nice way to get to know you. How scary was it to jump out of a plane the first time you got in one?! Smart thinking on the fruits too :)

$0.00

daltono (75) · 7 years ago

It wasn’t scary. I never let the idea get too deep in my mind. I just did it.
If you try it, don’t think. Just do.

Awesome job, dude! I love the thought of Ancient Egypt. And, dolphins! You have to go to Florida, they’re everywhere. 😁

daltono (75) · 7 years ago

Thanks!
I’m sure I’ll make my way to Northern Africa one day.
I have been to Florida a few times. Just haven’t been lucky enough to become best friends with a dolphin quite yet.
