1. What is your favorite fruit?
Has to be apple. I really like apples. I like sour apples. I also like other fruits but those are less easily procured here. Flat peach, grapes, honey dew melon, etc...

2. What is the most overrated fruit?
Strawberries. I dunno. It's like, if you buy import strawberries you'll never get the good stuff, so don't waste time and money at home. That time when I went to that strawberry farm in Tochigi and had a whole hour of free reign picking strawberries and eating them... yummy!

3. What is the most underrated fruit?
Custard apples maybe. Nobody seems to like them here.

4. Which fruit is the most beautiful?
Dragon fruit, probably.

5. When you're making a fruit salad, how many fruits do you put in it, and which ones?
I don't make fruit salads. I much prefer to just eat the fruit like that. But I can still repeat that old joke, Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad. But I must insist. Cherry tomatoes!

1. How do you feel about (or what do you think of) soccer, the sport known everywhere but in the U.S. as football?
I don't really know and care LOL.

2. What have you been forgiven for?
That implies I need to have done something wrong first, which I haven't (yet).

3. Who is the most joyful person you know?
There's a few of them! My colleague that sits behind me at work, definitely. Totally happy-go-lucky type.

4. When were you most recently a fish out of water?
I've been able to keep myself in familiar waters, so, can't think of anything.

5. Under which circumstances are you the best version of yourself?
I don't mind a little stress, but what I need is proper direction. There's some projects the boss wanted me to do but it's all exploratory, but even exploratory I want to know a vague intended direction, that maybe after some research we realize the intended direction isn't good so have to go another direction. But, there is no direction, and I'm really at a loss about that.
