Who is Maureen McCormick?
She's that blonde girl from that family TV show that I never could stand to watch because it was so nauseatingly wholesome.
What is NASA hoping will happen today?
I'm not sure -- maybe that some space junk will re-enter the atmosphere and burn up before hitting anything?
What's the closest you've come to Baton Rouge?
Hmm, not sure. It would be either Austin, Texas or Anniston, Alabama.
Can you name a film that Marilyn Monroe starred in?
Yes, I'm watching one right now -- There's No Business Like Show Business. She would be 86 if she were still alive!
And what about Loni Anderson?
No, sorry. I've never seen her in anything. Maybe a Burt Reynolds movie?
Do you have an opinion about doping in sports? If so, what do you think?
Athletes who are caught should be banned from the sport for life. Cheating is the absolute antithesis of sportsmanship.
What's the bravest thing you've ever done?
Quit smoking.

here a little early for the left-coasters, but I'm not a morning person so am posting this while watching the Olympics on Saturday evening. As usual, I've included a couple of New Zealand facts in honor of my homeland. (I've now lived in the US for as long as I lived in NZ -- hard to believe!). And now, on with the show!
kapai (adv) meaning good, from the Maori (New Zealand native) language; "everything is kapai".

What's the bravest thing you've ever done? I don't know how brave this was ( STUPID might be a better word) , but I moved all the way out to California two years ago with my daughter who prompty left, California, a dream I always had...... I grew to love it & then two days ago moved (with my furniture, cat and everything else) , all the way to Boston to be closer to my son.

Do you have an opinion about doping in sports? If so, what do you think? Yep- throw the cheating ******** out with no chance of competing again. How dare they try to get an unfair advantage over people who go by the rules. Oh, and strip them of any medals they may have won already.
What's the bravest thing you've ever done? I don't go with brave as such but I have chased and caught a shoplifter, and I wrestled a large dog to release the terrier it was mauling.
