~ An old black & white movie that you'd maybe watch again...list a bunch of them, Like Laura might do:

https://www.wmata.com/schedules/maps...System-Map.pdf

~ Something that you once found!: - A wallet with $300.00 in it. Took me 45 minutes to find the owner as it was in a parking lot of a high rise office building. He did not offer me a reward.

~ What sort of things for sale would you hope to find there? - No interest

~ Who would like a FREE 4 day, 3 night trip to Savannah, Georgia? - Pass. It won't really me free since I have to use my leave that I earned. I do not have any current vacation time but next month I get 2 weeks. Can take up to a year to use and I must use. I won't be taking 4 of those to said city but thanks anyway!

Thank you for the Friday Questions!

[quote=rainroosty;53596214]~ Are there any figurines in your home?

What counts as figurines? I have some old toys that I guess could be considered figurines.

Sure, I've never used one before.

I think so.

~ Something notable that you were at:

Like how notable?

~ An old black & white movie that you'd maybe watch again...list a bunch of them, Like Laura might do:

All the ones I'm thinking of as being in B&W, I realize they were in color. Hmm. I don't know. I'm sure there are plenty but I can't think of them right now. I haven't watched many recently. B&W TV, I can name many.

~ Have you ever been in a Subway train/station?

No.

~ Something that you once found!:

Two headed lizard.

~ Scale of 1 - 10...how much of a germaphobe are you?

Maybe a 9. I used to be an 11, but I've relaxed about it.

~ How often do you say things like hi or good morning or the like...to any neighbors?

Usually wave.

~ Does a bank have to allow you to cash a 'cashiers check' without you making a deposit?

I think so.

~ Flea markets/yard sales/garage sales, etc....do/did you ever enjoy going to them? Is there a flea market anywhere near you that you can go to?

Once I was asked to go to a flea market and I really didn't want to go, but ended up enjoying it.

~ What sort of things for sale would you hope to find there?

Nothing really. I just enjoyed looking.

~ Who would like a FREE 4 day, 3 night trip to Savannah, Georgia?

I guess so.
