~ How do you feel about leaf blowers?
Can't stand them
~ Did you see a snake this year?
Yes ... I've actually touched and posed with one along with two other family members in Santa Monica a few weekends ago
~ Do you ever listen to music at home?
Of course ... Love me some good 80's and 90's music
~ When something truly touches your heart do you ever find yourself staying silent about it due to lack of adequate words?
Maybe?
~ Is there someone that you care for more than they know?
Yes
~ Is there something that you remember that you were taught in science class when you were in school?
Can't think of anything in particular ... High school was an unpleasant blur
~ Did you ever sing out loud, "Jimmy crack corn and I don't care"?
~ Did you buy Cracker Jacks as a kid and have you bought any Cracker Jacks in the past 5 years or so?
I had some when I was a kid mainly for the little toys inside ... Never cared for the flavor of Cracker Jack ... Prefer caramel corn.
~ Which would you choose: nachos with cheese or nachos with salsa?
Depends as I love them both but I'll say with medium, chunky salsa
White nacho chips or yellow corn?
~ Do you have a bird call?
Yes... I do a mean crow
~ Sound good? Yes or no: raisins in the brownies!
Never had 'em but sounds like they would taste good
~ Did you get or will you be getting a flu shot this season?
(Kobber - did you get one for your season?)
Nope ... I don't do flu shots thankyouverymuch!
~ You have to leave the country you are in! Which country will you wish to flee to?
Canada as it is close to US and similar living conditions.
~ Have you any onions and if so what kind?
No onions in the Chatterdome
~ Do you have a favourite blanket?
Not in particular
The Fryday questions of October Four; 2013
~ I would like a seasonal vacation the entire month of October somewhere near Western Montana.
(All expenses paid)
~ How do you feel about leaf blowers? Have never used one. The noise does not bother me.
~ Did you see a snake this year? Only on tv. If I never again see a live snake in person that will be too soon. I have no use for snakes.
FYI...If you ever come to visit me and you bring your pet snake along, you will be looking for a new pet to replace your newly deceased snake
~ Do you ever listen to music at home? Very rarely.
~ When something truly touches your heart do you ever find yourself staying silent about it due to lack of adequate words? I do not do well expressing myself when in a highly emotional state.
~ Is there someone that you care for more than they know? Probably not
~ Is there something that you remember that you were taught in science class when you were in school? Do not use steel wool made for home use for experiments that include steel wool rusting. I do not remember what the science experiment was but in 9th grade science the class waited several days for the steel wool to rust which was suppose to confirm something. Turns out the steel wool the teacher brought from home was treated to not rust.
~ Did you ever sing out loud, "Jimmy crack corn and I don't care"? It is safe to say I have never sang that out loud
~ Did you buy Cracker Jacks as a kid and have you bought any Cracker Jacks in the past 5 years or so? Use to buy Cracker Jacks all the time as a kid. Probably has been closer to 10 years since I last bought any. Somewhere between being a kid and supposedly growing up, it appears to me they got real cheap with the prize inside.
~ Which would you choose: nachos with cheese or nachos with salsa? I will go with cheese. If anyone on C-D answers this question saying they do not like either I will be more than happy to take it off thier hands so that I get a second answer. Then I will also be able to say salsa.
White nacho chips or yellow corn? Either is fine
~ Do you have a bird call? nope
~ The most northerly place you have ever been to: To actually set foot on would be about 80 miles North of Fairbanks Alaska. I have flown over Siberia.
~ Sound good? Yes or no: raisins in the brownies! I will say yes
~ Did you get or will you be getting a flu shot this season?
(Kobber - did you get one for your season?) I have not. I never have and have no plan to ever get a flu shot. I grew up in a household of people that alll suffered dearly from the flu. Yet I would never get it. I have worked places where just about everyone but me would come down with the flu.
~ Would you happen to know what the word, "spurious" means? I would.
~ You have to leave the country you are in! Which country will you wish to flee to? I will form my own country on an island somewhere.
~ Have you any onions and if so what kind? I am currently onionless. I do buy onions often. I usually buy either yellow or red onions. Once in a while I will buy a bunch of green onions. What I do not buy are sweet onions. I like onions with attitude.
~ Do you have a favourite blanket? Which ever one is nearest to me when I am cold.
~ Here is something for you to do! It is a fun game that I found posted in the travel forum here on CityData. You are given 5 or 6 pictures, one after another, and you try to guess where in the world that you are. The pictures are Google map pictures so you can navigate around on them, looking for clues. You score higher points if you guess close to where the picture was taken.

~ Did you see a snake this year? No, I didn't.
~ Do you ever listen to music at home? Yes, sometimes.
~ When something truly touches your heart do you ever find yourself staying silent about it due to lack of adequate words? Yes. Sometimes I don't say anything because it touches me so much that if I talk about it I'll start crying.

~ Did you buy Cracker Jacks as a kid and have you bought any Cracker Jacks in the past 5 years or so? I haven't bought them in the past 5 years, but had them many many times as a kid.
~ Which would you choose: nachos with cheese or nachos with salsa? Nachos usually have cheese as part of just being nachos, and then you can add salsa if you want. I can't imagine nachos without cheese, so I'll say cheese.

~ The most northerly place you have ever been to: A little into Canada.

~ Do you have a favourite blanket? As a matter of fact I do and it is covering me right now.

~ Is there someone that you care for more than they know? There have been a few of those.
~ Is there something that you remember that you were taught in science class when you were in school? No, unless Psychology class counts.

~ Did you buy Cracker Jacks as a kid and have you bought any Cracker Jacks in the past 5 years or so? Yes, I used to eat them as a kid, but the quality of both the snack itself and the so-called prize has gone way downhill. Now I wouldn't bother.
~ Which would you choose: nachos with cheese or nachos with salsa? Can I have both? They're not really nachos without cheese, salsa, jalapeños and refried beans
White nacho chips or yellow corn? Yellow corn, but I'm not that fussy.
~ Do you have a bird call? Yes, we have an Audubon bird caller. When we had parakeets, DH used to like to drive the budgies crazy making funny bird sounds on it. They called to it frantically, but they could never figure out where the other bird was hiding.

You are given 5 or 6 pictures, one after another, and you try to guess where in the world that you are. The pictures are Google map pictures so you can navigate around on them, looking for clues.

~ How do you feel about leaf blowers? Hate them! Noisy and useless!

Yes, I would happen to know
~ You have to leave the country you are in! Which country will you wish to flee to?
