Well if mushrooms are considered vegetables then I choose that. Because genetically mushroom are more closely related to humans then any other fruits or vegetables (I think it has something to do with the # of chromosomes). If mushrooms aren't considered vegetables then I choose nickel because I was born in a nickel mining town and if I was nickel I could find my roots. Cheers!
The reason I asked is because don juan sez many illegals are ANIMALS and he wasn't being complimentary. Now since life is made up of animal,vegetable and mineral I wondered what WOULD be a good thing to be? Now I love mushrooms. We have them every week. But I'm not sure I'd choose something that gets consumed. I am a Foodie but I don't want to be on the flip side of that. I was going to say I'd like to be a fire opal. They are so beautiful. In a ring on someone's hand gifted by a loved one. But I just had another thought Nanoose. What are the Northern Lights? Animal, vegetable, mineral or something else? I wouldn't mind being them. Or a beautiful sunset. Or a rainbow. I'm having a hard time deciding. Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I like knowing the "why" and so thanks for providing that! Happy Friday! :)
