Between those destinations I'd go for Hawaii, I'd like to see the volcanoes.
When I see people win trips on game shows, I always say if I were them I'd take the cash value instead. I could almost definitely put together an equivalent trip for cheaper, cut out some of the luxuries (I don't need the fanciest hotel), and pocket the rest of the money.

I've heard rave reviews as well. I only know the Lynda Carter version, never followed WW as a comic character, but I might have to see this. Will I be lost if I don't know a lot about comics/superheroes?

Dropbox is pretty good, especially if you spring for the paid version. Google drive is convenient but I always worry about not feeling like I have total control over files once I put them up there. I'm not sure you can ever fully delete anything. But as long as you're not uploading anything sensitive, it's good.

Most of them are stupid, but there's no harm in people trying to have a little fun. You can make any day special for any reason if you want to. It's just something to distinguish one day from the next.

I can't think of anything that personal or embarrassing I've ever been asked in a survey here. Did you mean questions people are asking on the forums?

I love hanging baskets of plants, unfortunately it's so dry where I live that they dry out awfully fast and if you forget to water for a day, they're done :/

Orange or purple flowers both look really nice contrasted against green leaves, I think.

Off-Topic / Re: what kind of smartphone do u use?

iphone 6s plus. It's really big which is nice when it comes to watching videos, but I have small hands so I can no longer text one-handed which is a bummer. When it's time to get another phone I think I would choose something smaller.

I'm not sure if I have a clear favorite visually, but gardenias and jasmine are the prettiest smelling flowers.

I see the value in being able to download any book to one device, but I love the aesthetic of a real printed book. I work on the computer all day for a living and don't need one more screen to stare at.

Offers / Re: Video Lab

I'm not bothering with this offer on mobile or pc anymore. 12 minutes of videos (IF it works, usually doesn't) = 4 cents per hour. Probably costs more electricity to run the computer.

Silents aren't my favorite thing; due to having to convey the story non-verbally, some can tend to get a bit repetitive. If anyone's looking to try a silent film, Charlie Chaplin is the way to go.

I guess potholes in my city are repaired well, or maybe our streets are newer, but I really can't say I encounter a lot of bad potholes where I live. Sorry that it's such a problem for you guys!
