Saturday's questions coming to you from computer crash central (2 operating system wipe outs in 3 weeks). Luckily, my files were backed up.

Have a good weekend! Stay warm.


For which 3 musical artists (groups, duos or solo performers) do you own the most music?

1
2
3


When playing any type of trivia game, in what category of questions would you probably do best?

In all of the years that you’ve owned a home computer, has it ever crashed and you permanently lost photos, documents, videos and/or music?

What is a color you like to wear but would never select for your new vehicle’s exterior color?

How good of a dance partner were you when you were in your 20s? If you are still in your 20s, how good of a dance partner are you now?

Imagine a realtor is showing you houses within your budget. You pull up in front of one house but don’t get out of the car. For what reason(s) would you probably decline to see the house before you were even shown the inside of it?

Given these movie franchises, of which have you seen 3 or more movies?

Star Wars
Jaws
Die Hard
The Omen
James Bond
Indiana Jones
The Terminator
Final Destination
Twilight
Death Wish
Harry Potter
Madea
Batman
Dirty Harry
Friday the 13th
Lethal Weapon

Guessing....
1 John Coltrane
2 Miles Davis
3 Most of what I still have is old vinyl that belonged to my grandparents. I'd have to look to find an answer.


When playing any type of trivia game, in what category of questions would you probably do best? I'm not good at trivia. Maybe Arts & Entertainment or Literature

In all of the years that you’ve owned a home computer, has it ever crashed and you permanently lost photos, documents, videos and/or music? I have owned a computer for all of maybe six months. Before this, I've always used a school computer & no, none of them ever crashed.

What is a color you like to wear but would never select for your new vehicle’s exterior color? I wear mostly black & white and have had black and white vehicles in the past. I will go with colors I like but not necessarily for a car..... purple and pink.

How good of a dance partner were you when you were in your 20s? I'd say fair. I liked to dance.


Imagine a realtor is showing you houses within your budget. You pull up in front of one house but don’t get out of the car. For what reason(s) would you probably decline to see the house before you were even shown the inside of it? Location. Unless it's in the country with few neighbors, I wouldn't waste the realtor's time.

Given these movie franchises, of which have you seen 3 or more movies?

Star Wars
Jaws
Die Hard
The Omen
James Bond
Indiana Jones ...... maybe
The Terminator
Final Destination
Twilight
Death Wish
Harry Potter
Madea
Batman
Dirty Harry
Friday the 13th
Lethal Weapon
Jason Bourne ...... maybe
Star Trek
The Fast and The Furious
Jurassic Park

Where do you stand on the Humpty Dumpty Conspiracy: Did he really fall or was he pushed? Pushed. Pushed by someone he knew.



Thanks, Laura!

You too!

Science and history (can't think of categories at the moment).

Not of importance.. I dropped a hard drive that was full and broke it. Mostly movies backed up elsewhere.
What is a color you like to wear but would never select for your new vehicle’s exterior color?
Hard to say if I like a color it usually doesn't matter what it's on.

Don't think I ever danced that well but never got turned down.

If you are still in your 20s, how good of a dance partner are you now?

I can relate. I'm having computer issues myself. I took me about 45 minutes to crank this thing up this morning. I never know when it's going to be my last...

Only going by what's on my phone.

1 Foster the People
2 The Carpenters
3 Michael Giacchino


When playing any type of trivia game, in what category of questions would you probably do best?

Maybe a small bit of anything.

In all of the years that you’ve owned a home computer, has it ever crashed and you permanently lost photos, documents, videos and/or music?

I don't think I lost everything.

What is a color you like to wear but would never select for your new vehicle’s exterior color?

Pink

How good of a dance partner were you when you were in your 20s? If you are still in your 20s, how good of a dance partner are you now?

I only dance in front of the mirror. Only time I dance in front of anyone is if I'm being goofy.

Not to sound judgmental but probably the neighbors. Seeing how they take care of their property is sometimes a good indicator of their personalities. In other words trashy neighbors.

Given these movie franchises, of which have you seen 3 or more movies?

Star Wars

Jaws <-----

Die Hard

The Omen

James Bond

Indiana Jones

The Terminator

Final Destination

Twilight <----- But I couldn't make it all the way through the 3rd.

Death Wish

Harry Potter

Madea

Batman <----- Not sure.

Dirty Harry

Friday the 13th <-----

Lethal Weapon

Jason Bourne

Star Trek

The Fast and The Furious

Jurassic Park <-----
