This is getting ridiculous, so here's a random poll to jump-start some board action:
1. What, if any, names did you have picked out for your kids when you were little?
2. If you had to move somewhere else, where would you move to?
3. If you didn't have to go back to school or get any training but had to choose a different occupation, what would it be?
4. What is one thing you hope happens today?
5. What is one thing you hope doesn't happen today?
