    Or did you have another Elizabeth in mind?

    Guilt, innocence or not proven?

    Innocent - that's me, totally guilt free

    Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction or Kill Bill?

    I'm not super-crazy about any of them but Kill Bill has some very enjoyable bits.

    Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, or Commando?

    Die Hard. I haven't seen the others.

    Dogs, cats or hamsters?

    Hmm...until they perfect the attack hamster, probably dogs.

    Ugh. Hate hate hate 'em all. Ticks, I guess - the easiest to see and remove.

    Journey, Foreigner or Cheap Trick?

    Not fond of any of them, will take Foreigner as the least objectionable.

    Accordian, Harp or Recorder.

    Harp, I guess, as the one most likely to be heard in Heaven, not Hell.

    Heaven, Hell or Purgatory?

    I'll take Heaven if it's a personally blissful afterlife, customized to what I would like, but not if it's just flying around with wings and harps. Borrrrrr-ing.

    Pope, High Rabbi or Ayatollah?

    I'll go for Pope. Everything I said could be down as infallible. Oh, the possibilities...

    Shelley. "Ozymandias" has long been a favorite: http://www.potw.org/archive/potw46.html

    Batman, because well, he's the goddamn batman. Even though Frank Miller should really stick to writing his own stuff and not touching anyone else's.

    Harry Potter - easy pick for me. I don't think I'd like either Twilight or the Hunger Games, from what I've heard.

    Voldemort, Sauron or Darth Vader?

    Well, Sauron's an actual demon, not just a wannabe in a black robe, so he's gotta be cooler.

    Aragorn, Beowulf or Gawain?

    Excalibur. I'm a giant Arthurian nerd.

    Guinevere, if I can be Launcelot. Morgan's an evil schemer and the Lady of the Lake is an untouchable water spirit. A man has needs, y'know.

    Millennium Falcon, Enterprise-E or Serenity?

    Millenium Falcon. Smaller, faster and probably more fun, if you can avoid the empire.

    Horse, Camel or Llama?

    Llama. Something about the double "L" just tickles my funnybone. Our boys once loved the book Is Your Mama a Llama?

    J.S. Bach, Vivaldi or Handel?

    Ooo, I like 'em all, but I'd have to say Brahms. He wrote some sublimely beautiful music.

    Smoke signals, telegraph or wigwag?

    Telegraphs have an appealing, old-timey quality to them.

    Tapestries, frescos, or mosaics?

    Mosaics. I've always liked 'em and can't even really say why.

    Telling time: Wall clock, wristwatch or cellphone?

    Wristwatch, I love watches. Even a cheap one has a bit of panache.

    Two part cocktails: Manhattan, Martini or Cape Cod?

    Martini. Preferably with gin. Either olive or a twist, and what the heck, a Gibson is OK.

    Bloody Mary, Bloody Caesar or Bloody Maria?

    Never had the first, and never heard of the other two, so I guess I have to go with the first.

    Sword, shield or spear?

    London of course, finest city in the world bar none.

    No doubt at all: Egg nog with a stiff shot o' rum and a dash of nutmeg on top, just as I enjoyed earlier this evening!

    Christmas tree set up weeks ahead of time, on Christmas Eve, or on Christmas Day itself?

    Of those three, ham, although I'm more partial to roast beef (lamb is even better, but traditionally an Easter dish here). Don't think I've ever actually had goose - I'd like to try it someday.

    Celebrate in. Can't remember the last time we went out. The Heiress and I just aren't wild-and-crazy partiers.

    Champagne, sparkling cider or asleep by 10:30?

    A week. I try to get it done sooner, but there's always some last minute stuff that gets pushed up until that last week.

    A Christmas Carol adaptations: Scrooge McDuck, the Muppets, or Bill Murray?

    Given those choices, I'll go with Bill Murray. But George C. Scott or Patrick Stewart are best in my book.

    Santa Claus, St. Nick or Kris Kringle?

    Christmas turkey is what I've just about always had, but, man, goose is nice. I'd have it if I could.

    Vodka, with orange juice in a screwdriver. The first drink to ever make me drunk.

    Underline has fallen into sad disuse, maybe it's time to revive it.

    I kinda like one-piece bathing suits. Bikinis are OK, but it's the rare woman who IRL looks just great in the nude.

    Airplane, I guess. It's the one I've actually been in, and it's been useful to me.

    Snickers; I don't think I've ever seen a Mars bar here in U.S.

    Crosswords, Sudoku, or Jumbles?
