23.Can you flip your eye-lids up? Gah! Why would I want to?
24.Are you double jointed? No

32.Have you ever eaten a dog biscuit? Yes. yuck.
33.If you were in a car sinking in a lake, which would you do first: unbuckle your seat belt or open your window? Open the window before the mechanism jams from water pressure. Equalize the pressure.

35.Can you pick something up with your toes? I can roll dice with my toes.
