| What brought you to Xanga? What made you stay?A friend who no longer uses Xanga (abandoned it for MySp_ce) had a link to this at the bottom of an email. I joined as a result and soon found people I knew distantly with interesting postings, and it quickly became a place I felt quite comfortable blogging. Not social networking, but actually writing down my thoughts and sharing about life.
I have since started using certain social networking sites, but none of them fits well for blogging and sharing thoughts.
Back when I joined Xanga It was less social networking as it is now, and some of the "commercializing" of it has been a disappointment to me. But with that said I'd rather blog here than on some of those other sites.

| Does buying an import car make me un-American?I just bought a slightly used Toyota and have (apart from my wife's hybrid) consistently bought import cars. I have several friends who own American-made cars and strongly encourage buying American cars.
My observation is that there are a lot of American cars over the years that don't have the reliability or fuel economy of some of the imports available.
For me the reliability and fuel economy are top priorities when I buy a car. I also like the way the imports I have owned drive as well, but is it un-American to buy an import... used... from an American?

| As a child, what was your favorite book? Have you reread that book since your childhood?  My favorite childhood book was "Popcorn". It was a story about a bear whose parents go off to a Halloween party. All of little bear's friends come over and bring popcorn seeds, so they pop popcorn on the stove until the house is overflowing with popcorn. Then they eat their way out of the house and go home stuffed before the parents get home.
 Now my favorite childhood book is "Come and See", which is an amazing angle on the Christmas story. I have put a tune to it and hope to get it on paper and also record it some day.
