Today's Neighborly Questions: Do you ever sit out on your porch/balcony or at a window and watch the sunrise or sunset?
No.
What do you remember about the "Rocky and Bullwinkle" cartoons?
I watched the reruns sometimes but not a lot. I don't remember details.
Here's fun fact, though: June Foray who provided the voice for Rocky also voiced Talky Tina, the killer doll on The Twilight Zone.
Have you known of anyone who "lost" their car in a parking lot or garage?
I don't know.
What kind of business do you think looks like it would be fun to run or to work for?
Something with animation or design.
What might (or did) someone say to anyone in public who stared at them?
I can't speak for others, but I don't really say anything. If it's a shady looking man staring I let him know with a look that I'm watching him too and he'd better not try anything. If it's a child, I start laughing which causes them to stare more to which I laugh harder. If their parents aren't looking, I'll ham it up more.
Are you ever surprised by the friends or company some people keep? Details, if you have them.
Yes, I guess, but I can't think of specifics.
Foodie Questions: Do you eat sunflowers seeds, pistachios or similar snacky foods?
Sometimes.

What kind of business do you think looks like it would be fun to run or to work for? I think a jewelry store or bridal store would be a fun place to work.

Today's Neighborly Questions: Do you ever sit out on your porch/balcony or at a window and watch the sunrise or sunset?
Sunsets yes but I don't do sunrise. I hated watching the sun come up at work.
What do you remember about the "Rocky and Bullwinkle" cartoons?
Yes I do.
Have you known of anyone who "lost" their car in a parking lot or garage?
Doh It was freezing when I couldn't find my car when I was younger and my friend and I went back into the mall. I decided to check on this sectional sofa I had my eye on but couldn't afford until it went on sale as a floor model. Well it had that day and I bought it. Then I had to go out and find my car again in the frozen tundra parking lot.

Work is a four letter word now.

Are you ever surprised by the friends or company some people keep? Details, if you have them.
Yes One of my friends is still married to her unemployed husband who was in the process of arranging a girlfriend hooker experience when she caught him. She works on a shift she's not cut out for to be home at night to hold his hand because he was feeling neglected when she worked afternoons. Who needs that mess? I try not to be judgmental when we're together but I've grown to disrespect him and now her too. She's miserably unhappy but has such a low self esteem that she refuses to divorce him. It's not my place to run her life but come on. We're supposed to hang out together next Saturday but I just don't want to.

MMMM pistachios, pop corn, and those yogurt pretzels I just had for breakies. I love those cheddar sun chips too.

Thanks bjh. I love those old "Mayberry" photo's. We loved the new restaurant within walking distance to our house. It's adorable and the walk in the rain was fun. It's the little things.
