[MoriartyL]

1. That's a heck of an assumption. But to play along, my soul is a little over 12 hours old right now. I get a new one each time I fall asleep. Dreams are the part of the new soul's training that (due to small imperfections in the process) aren't forgotten.
2. Assuming I go to sleep when I usually do, I'd say 2 hours and 54 minutes.
3. If I believed in an afterlife (though I don't), I'd want it to give me whatever the heck I wanted, in whatever quantities I wanted, whenever the heck I wanted it. On occasion (and with an eternity to spare), that would be likely to include an understanding of what my life really meant. So yes. I guess it would be the afterlife equivalent of Googling yourself. Which I do, from time to time.

==============================================

1. Define "waste of time".
2. Define "friend".
3. Define yourself, with roughly the same amount of detail that you used in answering the first two questions.
