Is the new season of "Lost" important to you?
"No. So no!"	"I wish it was."	"Yes, mostly because it's still filmed in Hawaii."
What will you do when gas gets too expensive -- and what is "too expensive" to you?
"I just moved to town so the drive to UH isn't that bad anymore, but I would get those shoes with the wheels on the bottom, and a dog or something to pull me."	"If it goes past $4 I'll have to reconsider the type of car I'm driving."	"I won't 'supersize' at McDonald's if gas goes over $5 a gallon."
Are you more excited about the new Rolling Stones CD or the new 50 Cent CD?
"NPR (National Public Radio). In other words, neither."	"Rolling Stones. That's my era."	"The Rolling Stones. I've heard cuts from it. It's good. It's amazing."
