I'd be VIRIDIAN. And I'd have a lovely verdurous paper wrapped around my body with a rich wood-brown colour spelling out VIRIDIAN. And my skin would be totally viridian, of course. And I don't think it's such a wierd colour, anyways, but I wouldn't be any other colour but for this one.

I talk to myself every time I want a decent answer! Mostly because I'm surrounded by sharp-tongued daughters ordering me to do things their way! Leif isn't always good!

My son could probably name the Pratchett names you refer to as he's a Pratchett fanatic but I'm clueless. The classical names are (I think) Famine, Death, Pestilence and War. Been many years since I read St John ...

Laying down another egg! That is me fumbling between the "1984-Orwell" and "Brave-new-Huxley-and-revisited". I did enjoy them both though!! Because it was actually written by George Orwell.
I have never really noticed, but my trousers and shoes usually ends up right.

Because the animated version of "Animal Farm" and the animated version of LOTR have one thing in common....the animation is scary and not nearly as intriguing as the book.

Maybe because they are headed by young and dirty old men who enjoy looking at the shapely limbs of the fairer gender.

Do you often read about the Country before you visit it ?
Do you often read about the Country before you visit it ?
Always have, but not on purpose; by the time I reached 27 years of age I had read a lot about the European countries I started visiting that year. I assume I had read something about Canada before I visited there too as an adolescent. Of course, that wasn't really the question, was it. 
No I have never perused books on travel prior to visiting a foreign country, for only my trips to Canada were as vacations; while my trips to Europe were for business and I haven't been to Mexico even though I have been to San Diego California a couple times.
Can you spell leprechaun without looking it up? I got it right this time; though I had to use the spellchecker in the The Party Tree.

Take more walks. Fortunately, I live in the country and can enjoy a peaceful stroll down our seldom-used road. The next thing I will do this spring is start some plants for my garden.

Yum! Homemade Beef Stroganoff! I don't use those nasty flavoring packets for the sauce and I add lots of red wine and mushrooms and onion and pepper and worchestershire sauce and sour cream-it is to die for, served over egg noodles. I like to serve my homemade spinach souffle with it, if I have the time to do both in one outing. Anyone hungry?
When you were young, did you ever make up songs, lyrics and music, to sing to yourself while playing? (I did and my first song, which I wrote at the tender age of four, was titled "Feirce Like A Lion's Roar" and I even remember the tune!)

Yes it seems music was a part of my being from the beginning. When I was three I accompanied my father to buy a real Persian rug in this huge strange building, just one large, well gynormous room. The east Indian gentleman was arrayed like a Prince and very handsome and educated, and in the middle of this room was of all things a white grand piano. I got up on the bench and played a piece I had been hearing in my head. I just played it. Unfortunately for me both the man and my father were so shocked I had to take piano lessons. Oh those metronomes. And teachers that are about as exciting as wood chips. Well except for my very first, a gypsy from Romania and her husband a dashing violin player. It was enthralling. She would teach me to play with passion and every so often stop so they could kiss. When that was found out I had to go to a teacher that never smiled and told me constantly what a bad player I was.
Did you ever go to bed craving something to eat, a specific thing so deeply that you even dreamed about it in your sleep and alas never got to eat it? Mine was almond chicken soy sauce. Oh no, now I want some. help.

Once I craved for a sweet of some sort, thick chocolate cake I think, but I wish I could of dreamed of it, then it would be twice as big and thick
*Starts to want thick chocolate cake* Damn it!!! None left..........
If you had a choice between a German Shepherd puppy and a Golden Retriever Puppy, which would you keep??? (And no, you can't have both)

If I had no dog already I would choose the Golden. Golden Retrievers are very gentle, friendly, mellow animals. I have a German Shepherd mix, tho, and we love her a lot so they make nice pets too.

While I love the look of antique, I cannot bear furniture with cuts, stains, scratches. I work with wood and will sand something ten times and give it ten coats of satin varnish,sink those nails, in short I love perfection in the furniture. And think of this, when the original people enjoyed this stuff it was brand spanking new!
Oh Loss thankyou so much for the almond chicken, it was perfect, like a dance.
Would you rather own all of Tolkiens works , first editions or spend one hour with his son Christopher to talk about his father?
