What

The daily writing prompt wants to know – If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be? I’m sorry, it’s not that I don’t like dinosaurs, I do. I just don’t feel like playing that game this Sunday morning.

What I would like to bring back is our balance with Nature. We are killing off so many thing currently, maybe we could stop that so we wouldn’t be writing about what we killed off and would like to see again.

Not that we had anything to do with the dinosaurs being extinct. Just saying we could do better in current times.

Better Questions

I’ve been tinkering with the Daily Writing prompt questions for a while now and I’ve seen a lot of complaints about the type of questions. Most are related to the personal type of information being asked and how that might be used.

Occasionally the consensus is the question has been asked before in several different ways. I haven’t made a complaint yet about a question but today’s “If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be?” is so off the charts it is going to inspire me to create a list of questions better than this to send to WordPress because this one is for a 5-year-old and I don’t know too many people that age blogging yet.

Just a few off the top of my head that I might write about in the future when I run across a lame one from WP. Who knows, maybe I’ll start adding a top 10 list of possible questions on each of my replies so people have a choice if they don’t like the WP Daily Writing prompt.

My apologies to the WP person who created this. Momma taught me if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all. But mom passed a while back and I forget this once in a while.

  1. Soft Serve or Regular Ice Cream?
  2. What is the best view you have ever had?
  3. Do you believe EV’s are the future?
  4. King Crab or Blue Crabs, which are your favorite?
  5. What cut of steak is your favorite?
  6. Do you like swimming in a pool, ocean, or lake? Or simply can you swim?
  7. If you could change the look of your home, what would it be?
  8. What is the longest you ever let your hair grow? Post a picture.
  9. Do you think drivers can get worse than they are today?
  10. Do you fear heights? At what level do you start to get uncomfortable?
