Today's Question(s):
Where is your favorite seat in the house? In the livingroom
What is your favorite sandwich? Cheese steak. Not just any old cheese steak, but one from the Pickle Barrel Deli in Bozeman, Montana.
Who is your favorite well-known person? If I was to pick one well-known person then other well-known persons would feel slighted. Next thing you know they would be picketing outside my house. That would lead to TV stations parking their trucks on my lawn while reporting on the protest. I do not want TV stations parking their trucks on my lawn. So I will pass on picking a favorite well-known person.
