Today's Question(s):
Wow, I can't believe it, I actually met someone who slept with a Beatle. No names, no pack drill (but it wasn't John Lennon)!
Bonus Question:
What was the last thing you saw that someone had that made you say
" OOOO I want one !!!!! " ? Hmmm, the older I get the less that happens... in fact I can't remember the last time it happened.
Did you get it ?
Was it all you hoped for ?
Extra Credit Question:
Where were you when John Lennon was shot ? As I write this, I'm watching a TV prog about his death... and was trying to remember where I was. At the time I figured it was one of those things I'd always remember (like I still remember where I was when JFK was assassinated even though I was only 14). But, guess what, I actually can't remember. I think I was at work.
Do you remember what you were doing when you found out ? If I was at work, I'd have most likely been analysing stats or writing a report.
Just for Fun:
How many Christmas/Holiday cards have you received ? Just one so far - it seems to be that people in the US start with the Christmas stuff earlier than we do here.
Wow, I can't believe it, I actually met someone who was in the running for a Nobel prize.
Bonus Question:
What was the last thing you saw that someone had that made you say " OOOO I want one !!!!! " ? We had a neighbor get a yellow Italian sports car for his 50th birthday. Fast, sleek, and screamed MIDLIFE CRISIS.
Did you get it ? No way Mrs. Cncracer would let me spend that much money on a toy. We still have a child in college, and plan to live long enough to retire.
Was it all you hoped for ?
Extra Credit Question:
Where were you when John Lennon was shot ? I had to go look. I was in groton Conn. where i was working.
Do you remember what you were doing when you found out ? Working
Just for Fun:
How many Christmas/Holiday cards have you received ? I think only one at home, I have receives several at work.
