       Here are my July answers to christyotwisty's 5 monthly questions.
       Thank you for doing these, christyotwisty!  You give me m0ar to 
       write about aside from the usual computer geek stuff, even if my
       answers are dumb. ;) 
       
       Five Questions for July 2023
       
       1. What's your favourite way to stay active?
       
       Doing stuff outside in nature.  Even if it is just walking around.
       I still enjoy nordic walking or just wandering around the hiking
       trails.
       
       2. What's the best way to stay focused and productive?
       
       For me, getting proper rest, proper food, staying hydrated, and 
       taking breaks.  I struggle with doing these things consistently and
       end up getting burned out and useless.
       
       3. If you could have any sport or game instantly mastered, unrelated 
          to your current interests or abilities, which one would you choose
          and why?
       
       Offroad rally racing.  It's outside and driving in dirt looks fun.
       At least it does in the video games.
       
       4. Share with me an interesting trivia tidbit about your favourite 
          historical event.
       
       You can actually make good money while sharpening l33t $k!llz with
       no experience during the dot-com bubble. 
       
       5. Share a summer recipe.
