She confirms their suspicions that an ancient, mechanical intelligence orbiting the earth has been guiding their discoveries.

51. Your fears: Well, most of them have come to pass, so I don’t know what else is left.
53. Your most recent secret: I don’t think I’ve had any recent secrets. Well, wait, there was that one time…

59. Sweet and Chewy or Salty and Crunchy: Sweet and chewy.
60. Single or group dates: single, I guess. What’s a date?

62. Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea: Nestea, only cause it’s convenient.
63. Chocolate or vanilla: Chocolate.
64. Cappuccino or Drip: I have no idea what you are talking about.

77. Think you’re a health freak: Although I try to live a somewhat healthy lifestyle, I am way to lax in my execution to be labeled a “freak”, I mean I smoke for crying out loud.
78. Get along with your parents: Well enough.
79. Play an instrument: Can’t. Wish I could. But can’t.
So there you go. The survey on Mary’s blog only had 79 questions, and David’s had 100. I, of course, went with the shorter one. I may do the last 21 questions later on, but they seem kinda redundant/pointless.
