Me. It was back when I was young and stupid (now I am left with just being stupid) and ran all the way to the top rather than ride the elevator.
What is the first "switch" you turn on in the morning ? Coffee maker

What is the "wildest food" you have ever eaten ?
Domestic rat (raised for human consumption). Actually very tasty, just not much meat on them.
Cuy (pronounced coo-ee) or better known as Peruvian guinea pig. A very delicious and delicate meat. Tastes like a cross between beef tenderloin and venison ribs. It is widely raised for meat in Peru.
