Today's Questions:
In honor of “National Family Volunteer Day”,

Do you currently or have you in the past performed volunteer work? If so, tell us about it. Currently with the MS Society, block watch, neighborhood elderly aid, plus I volunteerily pay my taxes.

If money was no object and you could donate your time/skills anywhere in the world, where would you go and what would you do? I would go to the Falkland Islands and release those frisky little penquins from their tyranny because of those tourists that are constantly getting too close for comfort taking pictures of us undressed. Yes us, I'm the penquin man.

Bonus Question:
I just read this headline tonight: “NY man wearing ‘I’m Drunk’ shirt accused of DWI”
so I wanted to ask,

What’s the funniest or just unbelievable T-shirt you’ve seen someone wearing? Funniest would be the wife wearing "I'm with Stupid>.

Do you have a funny or ‘unusual’ T-Shirt? What does it say? I'm the Stupid one...

Just for fun:
Grab the book (or magazine) nearest to you - turn to page 15 and find line 7<no rush, so take your time >

What does it say? ...as we passionately kiss she feverishly runs her fingers down my chest, slowly unbuttoning my shirt, my heart beats faster and faster I start to...

It's Saturday, enjoy the moment...

Today's Questions:
In honor of “National Family Volunteer Day”,

Do you currently or have you in the past performed volunteer work? If so, tell us about it. A long time ago, I did data entry for the local sheriff's department, entering the deputies' report logs into their local computer database. I also volunteered for a number of different church ministries.

If money was no object and you could donate your time/skills anywhere in the world, where would you go and what would you do? Maybe do what one of my former co-workers did and teach English somewhere in Europe, like Italy or Romania.

Bonus Question:

so I wanted to ask,

What’s the funniest or just unbelievable T-shirt you’ve seen someone wearing?
One of the male supervisors at a company I worked for back in the early 90s had a T-shirt that read, "D.A.D. - Dads Against Diapers. It's not just a job--it's a doody."

Do you have a funny or ‘unusual’ T-Shirt? What does it say?
I got rid of all those T-shirts already.

And they didn't ask for anything in return except, "What are we going to do with our time?"

Have a nice weekend!

[b]Today's Questions:

We're active with the local fire department, which is almost entirely a volunteer unit. We're also avid kayakers, so we pitch in for river clean ups and other events that help keep the parks clean.



If money was no object and you could donate your time/skills anywhere in the world, where would you go and what would you do?

Hmmm, I might have to think about that for awhile.

Do you currently or have you in the past performed volunteer work? If so, tell us about it. I have and still do. My first real volunteer gig was as a candy striper at the local hospital - that was when I was barely a teenager. Since then I've had lots of volunteer experience - including a few years of full-time volunteering.

What’s the funniest or just unbelievable T-shirt you’ve seen someone wearing? I love my husband's religions of the world t-shirt. Strangers often do, also - including a couple jehova's witness kids one time.

What does it say? As he deposited his coin and rolled past he remarked wistfully, "I do hope this is an interesting game, otherwise the afternoon will be so terribly dull." (that's the whole sentence that crosses line 7 from my copy of The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster)
