Would you rather explore a new planet or the deepest part of the ocean? Why?
I’d probably explore the ocean because both options explore the unknown but at least when exploring the ocean you have the option to go home at some point.
If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
PEZ, cherry flavored PEZ. No question about it.

King Curry.
Where did you grow up?
Wyoming (primarily lived in Sheridan, but lived in Riverton for a brief period).
What are you most likely doing on a Saturday afternoon?
