Aida

1) Have you ever been to the opera? not yet

2) Maria Callas was often called a "diva." Is that a compliment or a criticism? it can be both but I generally think of it as a compliment

3) Aida was composed by famous Italian Giusseppe Verdi. In addition to opera, what else can the world thank Italy for? mostly foodie things

4) Verdi was Italian and Callas was Greek. Would you rather vacation in Italy or Greece? that's a tough choice, I'd love to visit both--but probably Italy

5) The Marx Bros. starred in A Night at the Opera. What's the funniest movie you have ever seen? The Blues Brothers is the first thing that came to mind

6) What's for dinner tonight? I need to get groceries first!

7) Are you wearing any jewelry right now? no

8) Sam Winters has a scratchy throat and watery eyes. How do you treat the common cold? lots of rest, lots of water, but mostly lots of rest

9) Do you need your glasses (or contacts) when you drive? not particularly, mostly my glasses are for astigmatism correction
