Yes. A social startup with a plan and revenue strategy, though I'm squeamish about talking super publicly about it. I'm looking for cofounders, if anyone's interested in joining me. I'm more interested in passionate, driven, generally super

My boyfriend (@andjones) insists that I need to read The Little Scheme, too, there's a vote for that one. Despite my ADD about programming book reading it's on my list.

I teach Zumba (dance exercise), freelance. I love it! I've "monetized my exercise". It's not something I'd want to scale, I prefer web dev for the majority of my time - but now I get paid to exercise, instead of paying someone else. And I'v

Yay! Well, the joke is supposed to be that the alien doesn't know what's appropriate to eat and what is not. Re: nickff's comment, I think that top bar actually gets lost. I put a tiny alien head next to the question to make it clearer. (:

Haha, the animals are getting a higher percentage of "yes" votes than the inanimate objects. (: With the monkey, someone said, "he looked so cute and innocent that i had to accept him as a snack!". Haha this is surprisingly entertaining.
