Today's Question(s):

What regional accent would folks say you have?


Probably a Midwestern one, with the occasional "y'all" as a legacy of my years living in Texas.

Bonus Question:

What old TV show(s) do you wish they would release on DVD?


None. Waste of time and money.

Extra Credit Question:

Would you rather go for a ride in a:
Hot Air Balloon?
This one!
Glider? No thanks.
Blimp? Meh, I could live without it.

Just for Fun:

How do you prefer to find your eggs prepared?


I generally prefer them over-easy or poached.

If someone was to say to you "give me some sugar" what would you do?

Hand them the sugar bowl.

lol have you ever tried to scratch your back using the door jam?

Sure, hasn't everyone?

Give this a try:

Use the "Word of the Day" in a sentence?


When I was at the Guest of Honor speeches and award presentations on Sunday night in the hotel's largest ballroom, I espied a good friend whom I had not seen all weekend, and we had a good chat after the festivities.

Good morning.

Today's Question(s):

What regional accent would folks say you have ? midwest / redneck

What kind of accent do you have ? none - I don't hear it. A friend once told me I have the perfect Iowan accent. I told her that we don't have accents. She disagreed. (I have found that accents are contagious for me. The stronger your accent, the sooner it will affect mine.)

Bonus Question:

What old TV show(s) do you wish they would release on DVD ? Night Court

Extra Credit Question:

Would you rather go for a ride in a:
Hot Air Balloon ?

Just for Fun:

How do you prefer to find your eggs prepared ? over easy or scrambled or poached (as long as the whites aren't runny)

If someone was to say to you "give me some sugar" what would you do ? Hugs and/or kisses

lol have you ever tried to scratch your back using the door jam ? yes, and many other things too

Give this a try:

Use the "Word of the Day" in a sentence ? On one of the bike rides over the weekend, I had the opportunity to espy a hawk flying overhead with a snake in its claws.

Today is:
National Egg Day I would much rather have eggs for breakfast than sweet stuff.
National Cancer Survivors Day Yay Charley! (and any others that have won the battle)
Repeat Day Ok, I will.
Tattoo Day I have two. May get more.
National Itch Day My sunburn is starting to itch. Not a good idea to scratch however, it hurts.
Repeat Day Ok, I will.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T Day


Have a good day everyone!

Today's Question(s):

What regional accent would folks say you have ? I don't think I have one, being from the midwest/west.

What kind of accent do you have ?


Bonus Question:

What old TV show(s) do you wish they would release on DVD ? Isn't everything on DVD now days? I'd like to own the old Mission Impossible series as well as Star Trek and maybe that show Home Front. I'd also like to see the Queen for a Day series since I'm convinced it was rigged.


Extra Credit Question:

Would you rather go for a ride in a:
Hot Air Balloon ?
Glider ?
Blimp ?


Just for Fun:

How do you prefer to find your eggs prepared ? cooked well done or scrambled

If someone was to say to you "give me some sugar" what would you do ? It depends on the setting and who was asking. If it was a child in the kitchen I'd give them some sugar!

lol have you ever tried to scratch your back using the door jam ? No. I have a great wooden back scratcher that I got at a tourist store here in Ponce - it's like the old fashioned plastic ones with a hand on the bottom.

While searching the refrigerator for breakfast what did I espy? Fresh Strawberries!
