Real Time With Bill Maher. But it's currently on another break because HBO won't give him closer to 52 weeks out of the year. I guess I shouldn't complain. I am glad it's on.

Speaking of shows I miss I wish Ed Schultz would come back to The Ed Show. But I understand that family comes first.

I do not watch a whole lot of TV.

No. But I have a fork handy because I saute extra toppings and they often fall off.

I'm not a big beer drinker either.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!

Today's Question(s):

What is your current desktop picture?


It is a Greater Yellowlegs walking in the water, one of my own photos.


When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?

Who looked?


Is there a particular a word that you say a lot?

I say, "But seriously," a lot so posters in the P&OC forum know when I'm kidding. You have to give some of them a clue when you are pulling their leg or they go ballistic.

I know, "But seriously," is 2 words.

What do you label yourself as?

Wash and wear. But seriously...

Creaky

Bonus Question:

Who or what inspired you to work in your field?


No person. Boredom as a motivator. Project analyst was always my favorite job within a job because projects have a beginning and end so you could get excited, do something really well and innovative, collect your kudos and easily move on to the next project and get all inspired all over again about something completely different. It worked out well for me career-wise and monetarily-speaking.


What current T.V. program do you look forward to every week?

It's the off season now but that show would be "Justified" on the FX channel.

Just for fun:

Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?


Twirl

Do you eat pizza with a knife and folk?

That would be like breaking the 1st Commandment of Pizza.

Favorite Alcoholic drink?

Don't drink.

Today's Question(s):

What is your current desktop picture?
It is ugly. Papers everywhere. A bunch of old mail that needs tossing. A couple of dirty glasses that need to get put in the dishwasher. What's that? You mean the desktop picture on my computer? It is just a blue background.


When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?

Boy I sure look rough. That stinky cheese I ate last night must have fermented somehow.


Is there a particular a word that you say a lot?

Besides "stinky Cheese"? Not really.


What do you label yourself as?
I am your basic run of the mill mutt.


Bonus Question:



Who or what inspired you to work in your field?
My dad. He worked in avaiation for almost 40 years. Many of the houses we lived in were right next to the runway. I grew up hanging around airports. FYI...My sister and I both have over 25 years in aviation. My mom even worked briefly in aviation.


What current T.V. program do you look forward to every week?
Mythbusters


Just for fun:

Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?

I use to cut it. However a few years ago I switched to twirling it.


Do you eat pizza with a knife and folk?
Knives and forks have many uses. Using them to eat pizza is not one of them.


Favorite Alcoholic drink?

I am your basic beer drinker. Once in a while I will have one of my sisters frozen lime daiquiris. Not really sure how she gets them to stay frozen with as much rum as she puts in them. College cured me from doing shots. I would drink wine but then I would develope some class and before you know it I would be using a knife and fork to eat pizza.

Have a great weekend everyone
