Thanks for opening @Sunspots and for all the coffee...as I need at least 3 I think this morning....
What animal have you never seen that you'd love to?
There are so many .... but have always had a fondness for koalas....something about those fuzzy unique ears....
Okay, a few (more) questions...
1 - If you could start a charity, what would it be for or do?
That is a hard one as there are so many needs in this world -- mental health available for all at no cost and with minimal or no wait times nor time limits, apprenticeship programs which lead to real jobs for those who are trying to start a new life, child care for all who are trying to work and raise a family, operational funds for museums so they don't have to sell their collections to keep their doors open, monetary rewards for those companies/governments to make environmentally sound decisions-e.g. make it more profitable to do that rather than to initiate policies/practices that cause irreparable harm to the environment and surrounding communities
2 - What song would be played on a loop in hell?
Barney's theme song...

3 - What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)?
Making ribbon butter cookies with red and green sugar sprinkles...miss making those with my mom
4 - What fashion trend would you like to see brought back?
Empire-style dresses---hides everything except in a strong wind...lol
5 - What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten? Did you enjoy it or not?
I've had bird-nest soup (rather unexciting), escargot (admit was a bit surprised to see nails in a little container at a high end restaurant in Paris...again rather unexciting),... but hands down was a natto bean sushi when in sendai, japan...I don't think I have ever tasted anything that my whole body seemed to reject to much to the amusement of the museum staff there....
Wishing all a great Thursday...

Hi @Sunspots! That critter is very cute, I wonder how him and Mike The Cat would get along.
A gorilla, but one that's free and in it's natural environment, not in a cage. I definitely want to be in a cage for the meeting, though. Hey, those guys can split tree trunks in half, I don't want no trouble.
One that takes care of the elderly in nursing homes. Not medically, just visiting and going to the store for them, getting them things they need.
"My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion. Eternal excruciating Dark Sarcasm.
Thanksgiving. Lots of great food and nowhere near the amount of angst that Christmas brings.
Togas, they look very comfortable.
I've tried cow tongue once or twice and wanted to spit it out, because no matter how it's prepared, it still feels like you're eating a tongue. But even worse than that was cow brain. It can't get much weirder than eating something's brain.

If you could start a charity, what would it be for or do?
Adopting unwanted children or children in bad situations to hopefully try and provide them a better life.
What song would be played on a loop in hell?
Baby shark. That would get grating quickly.
What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)?
Christmas lights. I've always enjoyed looking at and enjoying Christmas light displays.
What animal have you never seen that you'd love to?
Whales or great white sharks.

I suppose I should answer the questions too.. 
I haven't done much today. Took the dog for a quick walk in between the rain showers. Then I gave myself a manicure and pedicure. Not sure I like the colour but it's done now so will have to stay for a while.
I'd love to buy a farm and run it as a residential college teaching horticulture, farming and animal care to young adults with learning disabilities.
Anything by Dire Straits but particularly this one.. Oh actually I can't think of a specific one, they're all equally hideous.
Probably going to see the fireworks on Guy Fawkes Night, then coming home to some mulled wine to warm us up.
All things Goth. There's not enough black hair dye, black eyeliner, lipstick and nail varnish and not enough black clothes and skull boots any more.
Like @Kiwi2016 I've tried bird's nest soup. I wasn't overly impressed and couldn't get past what it was made out of - birds nests made out of bird spit.

Good morning cafe peeps
I am working. And my plan is to finish my shift for today.
Neanderthal.
War refugees.
Gangnam style.
New Years Eve! Lots of food and lots fun.
I don't follow the trend. I just wear what I feel comfortable in.
Can't recall. I don't think I am really what you'd call an adventurous person.
Animal I have never seen before...giant squid imagine the calamari you can get.
1 - If you could start a charity, what would it be for or do?
Way too many to pick a single one.
2 - What song would be played on a loop in hell?
No song for me but Keeping Up With the Kardashians playing non stop would be hell for me.
3 - What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)?
Visiting my grandparents as a kid. Us kids got away with just about everything.
4 - What fashion trend would you like to see brought back?
Wearing armor plate like knights of old, I can bring my mace, halbard, flail and sword.
5 - What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten? Did you enjoy it or not?
Balut, not my taste.

Hi Sunspots, and all SF members. 
What animal have you never seen that you'd love to?
There's a few humans out there I'd like to meet.
1 - If you could start a charity, what would it be for or do?
Any charity would be great already. Perhaps one involving sheltering rescued farm animals because that's what I know best.
2 - What song would be played on a loop in hell?
3 - What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)?
Traditions? What is that?
4 - What fashion trend would you like to see brought back?
I don't know... But I wish that whatever I wore, I was not judged for it/looked at, lol. I'm not really restraining myself, but I can't help but care about being... "moderate", so it doesn't bother anyone.
5 - What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten? Did you enjoy it or not?
Not sure I've ever eaten anything particularly weird.

3 - What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)? I'm not sure if it's eating Turkey and food on Thanksgiving.. Or exchanging presents on Christmas.. or dressing up and getting free candy on Halloween and giving some away.. or finding Easter Eggs on Easter.. idk =x I suppose the tradition of exchanging presents on Christmas.

What animal have you never seen that you'd love to?
Hmm...I've seen wolves (many times) so it's not that. I think I'd like to see a Cheetah
Okay, a few (more) questions...
1 - If you could start a charity, what would it be for or do?
So many good options, I'll go with one that would support wolf preservation and education (education about wolves, not educating wolves)
2 - What song would be played on a loop in hell?
"Silly Love Songs" by Paul McCartney
3 - What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)?
Getting a Christmas tree
4 - What fashion trend would you like to see brought back?
Women's hats
5 - What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten? Did you enjoy it or not?
I don't know about "weird," but the most different from my usual would be Ethiopian food, it was very good

Good morning cafe peeps

I went to the zoo the other day and saw some of my favourite animals. But there is one animal I'd love to see irl and have never seen one yet...

Charities would have to do with feeding the hungry and teaching sustainable food growth and reinvigorating the soils we have depleted all over the world
so many hellish songs to choose from......
Dewali was beautiful in India last year. I'm not big on holidays anymore.
501 Levis and miniskirts from the 60's. I still have my denim maxi skirt and a halter top from that time, they fit so I've been a hippie for Halloween for years....
I ate fried insects in Bangkok. really weird

1 - If you could start a charity, what would it be for or do? I would help LGBT+ youth who have been rejected by their families. I'd have a residential facility and guidance counselors/therapists to help guide and support (emotional and financial) the youth through college and/or into the workforce.
2 - What song would be played on a loop in hell? Row, row, row your boat...
3 - What's one of your favourite holiday traditions (either one you do now or one from your childhood)? Cooking. Everyone crowded in the kitchen preparing their specialty dish for the meal.
4 - What fashion trend would you like to see brought back? No clue.
5 - What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten? Did you enjoy it or not? Fried frog legs. They tasted like chicken.
