...Tony, shouting at Wally, hollered: GO _
(it wouldn't be nice!)

~ Do you/have you ever make a sandwich using just one slice of bread and what do you put on it? - I haven't had in a while but the only thing I can think of that I made is peanut butter, honey, and raisins, folded.

~ What thing(s) do you have with the most pockets? - A tote bag.

~ Things that are flat: - Vinyl records and cd's.

~ Sports that do not have a ball: - Ice hockey.

~ Do you have a favorite actress? Who? - No favorite.

Thank you, rainroosty - great questions!

~ Things that are flat: A piece of paper. Placemats. A table top. Counter tops. I could go on and on! The top of my outdoor trashcan, which I need to take out right now! LOL

~ Sports that do not have a ball: Jump rope. Badmitten or however you spell it. Jousting. Archery. Boating. Rock climbing. Hiking. Sledding. Spelunking. Sky diving. Zip lining. Diving. Sure there are lots and lots more.

~ Do you have a favorite actress? Who? I love me some Meryl Streep.

~ Jobs that must pay a lot of money: Surgeon.
