So Viking, what would 100 delegated SP do for you? I see that it is not quite enough to get you a slider...

Just looked at Steemworld - I'm currently expecting 21 SP earned this coming week. Plus the same in Steem - almost all of which will go directly into SP. So, I would anticipate being at 350 SP natively in the next 10 days or so. At that point, with the 50 SP already delegated to me semi-permanently, that extra 100 SP would get me the slider. Which would allow me to give more votes to people. It would also allow me to help more at steemflagrewards to help fight abuse on Steem.

Oh! You are so close! So my delegation could really make the difference!

Have you ever had a slider before or have you only dreamed about it?

Nope. Not had a slider before. Definitely thought about it and played around with the stuff on Steemworld before. Oh, 500 SP would give me a 0.03 vote as well, which has been my goal ever since I first hit 0.02 (back when it was 80 SP to get there...) That goalpost has been moving ever since then!
Oh, and the 50 SP delegated to me right now is from asapers for being one of the curators, so that's semi-permanent.
So, yeah, in about a week or so, 100 SP would be amazing!

Thank you for interviewing with me! Your answers have been great so far! Did you use a lot of social media before you found steem? How did you end up hearing about steemit and making an account?

I've been using Facebook for a long time - about 13 years, I think.
Honestly, I can't remember how I heard about Steemit. (It might have been a post on Facebook, but I just don't remember.) But I spent a few hours learning about it and then signed up. My account was approved on Christmas Eve Eve and I just had to start! (The rest is history, as they say...)

A platform where I could blog and potentially earn was a great idea - and something I'd been looking for. I have tried standard blogs before, but could never keep them up. Combining it with social media was a brilliant idea!

I like your answer! I used to pay to blog, and had to learn so much about setting up websites....and its not even clear to me if 5 people ever read anything I wrote....

The rest is history! What do you hope the history books will say about you?

I can hand-code HTML, I could do my own flashy website if I wanted, but that's not enjoyable to me anymore and hosting is a problem now. You used to be able to do it for free and code your own site, but that's getting harder and harder. Now, HTML is more functional for me - my son carries it forward now. (I've been unsuccessful thus far in getting him on Steem.)

History books? I don't know that I want to be in one, lol. I'd like it if my books were somehow mentioned, but I'm just an ordinary person in most ways - not history material, really. Now, in some family history book for my descendants - that would be cool. Maybe an autobiography for the collection as well. I like to think that I've learned a lot in this life and could benefit my great-grandchildren - maybe help them avoid a lot of life confusion by sharing my philosophies with them. (and no, that's not an easy - or short - question to answer!)

I do have a couple of sayings that I use:
"Normal is boring."
"Sanity is over-rated."
"Everyone sees a different rainbow." (Scientifically true. I haven't said that one in a long time though.)
