go on, shoot me a q

So I’ve sat through 13 days of continuous posting, and the reactions have ranged from astonishment to ‘Lord, you’re nuts’, to ‘You have no life?’ to ‘Of course you can do it!’

As in not a single eyebrow was raised in my capacity, but just my intention to stick to this post-a-day. If these are my friends, one doesn’t need any enemies. I whined to a bunch of these folks, and I said to them “See, I can write, but what to write on?”

There was outpouring of support:

One suggested a theme, which I shall get to.
One suggested I just do movies, and he’s a movie buff. Then he declares that he didn’t have any vested interest. Sure.
One suggested I write fables. Every alternate day. er, and lose my readers? No thank you.
One sent me a bunch o links and prompts, on word or topic of the day. If I was a good student and doing my homework, you think I’d be stuck doing what I do day in and day out?
Then 2 different people suggested I open the blog up for questions. “All you ever wanted to know about Rads and were afraid/shy/or polite to ask!” Pretend you are famous, I was told. I laughed. There were 2 things wrong with that. One, I am no good at pretending. Two, my life’s an open blog. What on earth is left of me to discover or be curious about?

Then I made the mistake of throwing it at one. He came back within an hour with five questions. Wow. So, this was what folks were still curious about me? The more relevant reactions, and administrations of life that I somehow skip right over while blogging? Great! This I can handle, I think to myself. This doesn’t make me a snob or a pretentious little thing on the web. If I can carefully disguise it, I may just be called a sport after all! (Anything works as fodder for a day)

Hence I do this, and ask you readers:

Go ahead and ask me a question and I shall answer it.

Keep it simple. I reserve the right to throw any question out and all answers are final. 🙂

Will keep adding the questions to the end of the post, and will take questions up until Friday, Oct 17th, or the top 25, whichever comes first. Check back Monday Oct 20th for answers.

Via email that I didn’t check so adding it on:

Do you like the person who gives you a straight opinion/answer however rude that may be or would you prefer someone to kinda make the answer beautiful, add some chocolates and all the while hide the crap! (Its an either/or question – There is no part of this and part of that)
