sure.

I don't think so.

~ Have you ever seen some driving their vehicle and their finger was up inside of their nose?


ewwww. there's advantages to those dark tinted windows.


~ What coin do you think is the coolest:

I had one from Canada that had 2 metals-white on the outside and gold in the middle. I think it was a dollar.

~ Do you ever at all...eat sliced 'white bread'? You know what I mean...that Wonder Bread type of crap?

don't buy it but if served at someone's house, I'll eat it.

~ Do 'acronyms' annoy you sometimes?

YES!

~ Do you literally have 'freedom of speech', right here and right now?

well, yea, because right here and right now I'm alone.

~ Have you ever been to eat at an eatery that is on the waterfront?

yup.

~ Would you like some white or yellow tortilla chips with salsa and/or nacho cheese? Anything else with that?
no, thanks. too salty and too greasy. I'd rather the white bread.

~ 3 days ago an awesome iguana came to my home to eat its leaves and flowers. Yesterday she was back here, doing the same. It weighs a good 2 or 3 pounds. Have you ever tried being vegetarian and do you think you can be a vegetarian and still gain weight?

one of the buildings of Mansfield University.

~ Have you ever heard an 'echo'?

Of course

~ Concerning 'echos', do you think that, if you sat in a chair (or stood) located where the soundwaves were bouncing off of wherever...that the soundwaves would be louder than when on its path to that reflecting point?

Probably not.

~ Have you ever seen some driving their vehicle and their finger was up inside of their nose?

Aha!! A trick question!!! I am not looking what other drivers do with their fingers, but pay attention to the road and traffic

~ What coin do you think is the coolest:

The AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO 1 TONNE 9999 GOLD! As pictured here. Indeed, very cool!!
http://www.perthmintbullion.com/us/O...gold-coin.aspx


~ Do you ever at all...eat sliced 'white bread'? You know what I mean...that Wonder Bread type of crap?

Me? Eating crap wonder bread? NEVER!! Yuck!!!!!
I would occasionally eat baguette but normally, I don't eat white bread.


~ Do 'acronyms' annoy you sometimes?

Didn't thought about lately...

~ Do you literally have 'freedom of speech', right here and right now?

Are you kidding? No freedom of speech with all the BS about PC.


~ Have you ever been to eat at an eatery that is on the waterfront?

Yes. I eat freshly caught fish at the beach tavern in my hometown.

~ Would you like some white or yellow tortilla chips with salsa and/or nacho cheese? Anything else with that?

Salsa is good, classic. But hummus tastes pretty good too, and so is avocado-feta dip, or my homemade roasted garlic parmesan white bean dip, or sriracha greek yogurt dipping sauce, or honey mustard dip, or artichoke and kale dip... etc...

~ 3 days ago an awesome iguana came to my home to eat its leaves and flowers. Yesterday she was back here, doing the same. It weighs a good 2 or 3 pounds. Have you ever tried being vegetarian and do you think you can be a vegetarian and still gain weight?

You guys in Florida eat those little lizards, not?
I didn't try to be a vegetarian, I am a meat lover!
And yes, you can gain weight being vegetarian - all that those beans, grains, cheese, potatoes, fatty fish, nuts, juices, soy products are calorie rich.



~ What do you think the highest location is in your town/city?

The tower of the Americas. 750-foot-tall. Other than that, just small hills around.


~ 3 delicious drinks:

Milk, tea, and firewater!

~ It is Fryday; may today and the weekend and the future be peaceful. Spread some love!


Thank you, roosty! Many peaceful hugs! xxxxxxxxx...
stay cool and have an awesome weekend!

~ Have you ever heard an 'echo'? - I seem to recall...

~ Concerning 'echos', do you think that, if you sat in a chair (or stood) located where the soundwaves were bouncing off of wherever...that the soundwaves would be louder than when on its path to that reflecting point? - Doubtful

~ Have you ever seen some driving their vehicle and their finger was up inside of their nose? - Not something I would notice. If I did I would look away and it would be forgotten.

~ What coin do you think is the coolest: - Dollar coins are worth the most but I haven't seen one in a long time.

~ Do you ever at all...eat sliced 'white bread'? You know what I mean...that Wonder Bread type of crap? - Not the commercial type, like the example just given.

~ Do 'acronyms' annoy you sometimes? - When I don't know what they are...

~ Do you literally have 'freedom of speech', right here and right now? - Of course not...

~ Have you ever been to eat at an eatery that is on the waterfront? - Many times but not in a while.

~ Would you like some white or yellow tortilla chips with salsa and/or nacho cheese? Anything else with that? - Goes good with Mexican style food.

~ 3 days ago an awesome iguana came to my home to eat its leaves and flowers. Yesterday she was back here, doing the same. It weighs a good 2 or 3 pounds. Have you ever tried being vegetarian and do you think you can be a vegetarian and still gain weight? - The reason vegetarians gain weight is carbs, especially bread and pasta. White rice and sugar are bad for weight gain as well. I'm used to working with large groups and I often see what people eat. Know/known vegetarians and vegans along the way. Think large portions and often.

~ What do you think the highest location is in your town/city? - IDK

~ 3 delicious drinks: - Filtered water, water with lime or lemon, sparkling lime water.

~ It is Fryday; may today and the weekend and the future be peaceful. Spread some love! - Nice thought...

Thank you for the Questions!

Happy Friday!

~ Concerning 'echos', do you think that, if you sat in a chair (or stood) located where the soundwaves were bouncing off of wherever...that the soundwaves would be louder than when on its path to that reflecting point? No, wait..... too much thinking when I haven't been awake long.

~ What coin do you think is the coolest: Most familiar with US coins of course, so I'll say the state quarters.

~ Do you ever at all...eat sliced 'white bread'? You know what I mean...that Wonder Bread type of crap? Not now, but my mother liked it so have in the past.

~ Have you ever heard an 'echo'? Yes. Yes.

~ Concerning 'echos', do you think that, if you sat in a chair (or stood) located where the soundwaves were bouncing off of wherever...that the soundwaves would be louder than when on its path to that reflecting point? Gee, I don't know! I think it would be quieter, but now that you've asked...... perhaps not.

~ Have you ever seen some driving their vehicle and their finger was up inside of their nose? Sure have; especially at stop lights. Reminds me of a Seinfeld episode wherein Jerry was just scratching the side of his nose. "It wasn't a pick!"

~ What coin do you think is the coolest: In U.S. coins, the buffalo nickel. In Canadian coins, the 5-cent two-tones beaver coin.

~ Do you ever at all...eat sliced 'white bread'? You know what I mean...that Wonder Bread type of crap? Nope.

~ Do 'acronyms' annoy you sometimes? Occasionally.

~ Do you literally have 'freedom of speech', right here and right now? Here on City-Data? Not quite, as certain language isn't permitted. Sometimes I have to button my lip.

~ Have you ever been to eat at an eatery that is on the waterfront? Yepper; many times in many different locations when I travel. Also in a few places closer to home. There's a restaurant on a river bank about 45 minutes SW of my home and I've eaten there several times, though not in the past few years. It's a lovely view.

~ Would you like some white or yellow tortilla chips with salsa and/or nacho cheese? Mmmmmm. Sure! I love both white and yellow tortilla chips and like both salsa and cheese. Anything else with that? Yep. Sour cream, please.

~ 3 days ago an awesome iguana came to my home to eat its leaves and flowers. Yesterday she was back here, doing the same. It weighs a good 2 or 3 pounds. Have you ever tried being vegetarian and do you think you can be a vegetarian and still gain weight? I've never tried a vegetarian diet because I'm simply not interested in it. I love meats! I suppose one can gain weight from a vegetarian diet if they ate enough high-carb veggies such as beans and corn.

~ What do you think the highest location is in your town/city? It's fairly flat in these parts, but there are some big hills in one portion of my town. Until several years ago, they were used as a small ski venue. There's even a chair lift there. Seems really out of place for NW IN! I'm not sure what the elevation of the highest hill is. In the city immediately north of mine, there are huge sand dunes on the south shore of Lake Michigan. One is named "Mt. Baldy." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Baldy_(sand_dune)


Here's a photo I took of Mt. Baldy several years ago. It was overcast and raining at the time. Not a great quality photo, but it gives you an idea of the dune's motion. The dune doesn't look very big in this photo, but it is over 125 feet high! The trees you see used to be fully exposed; now they are half buried. Eventually, they will be completely buried in sand, preserved forever. Hundreds of trees are buried under Mt. Baldy and other sand dunes in the area.


~ 3 delicious drinks: Water; cabernet sauvignon, bloody mary with Absolut vodka.

~ It is Fryday; may today and the weekend and the future be peaceful. Spread some love! Thanks a whole heap, roosty! Have a fantastic Fryday, everybody!
