Stripes17: (suggested this summer) When you were younger, what did you "want to be" when you grew up and did you follow that path? My first "want to be" was a cowboy. I lived in the Bronx (NYC) and I wasn't a boy so that was never going to happen but I watched a lot of westerns on TV. When I was an older kid, I wanted to be an astronaut but then it dawned on me that I got sick on every amusement park ride and couldn't even sit backwards in a station wagon or on a train so that was out, too. Heck, I even passed out in Florida from the heat when I was 12, so there was no way I was going to live/train there.
LauraC: What is/are your least favorite QOTD subject(s)? Feelings questions about something non-tangible like (just making these up) "When were you hopeful?" or "What could someone do for you if you were unhappy when your bunny rabbit died?" followed by food questions only because I don't think there is any food question that hasn't been asked already.
LauraC: Besides the problem for which you are visiting a doctor, what is the thing(s) you like least about a doctor visit? Sitting in a waiting room with sick people coughing and taking me out of the waiting room to sit for a long length of time in an examining room. I know, besides examining me in the parking lot as I pull into my spot, they can't win with me.
SUPbud: When it comes to "colorful kid-band-aids (Candy Crush, Winnie the Pooh, Snoopy designs, etc.) -" are they "only for kids, or would you use them as an adult"? No. Didn't use them as a kid, either. Don't even know if they existed when I was a kid.
kygman: What's your favorite type of music and your favorite band/singer? My favorite singer is Ed Sheeran (pop) but my favorite music genre overall is country, followed by pre-Beatles oldies.
GiGi603: What is your favorite color? Dark brown or maroon to wear and chartreuse (yellow/green) for everything else (except cars). Yellow is the color I mostly add to outdoor photos but I'd never wear it.
Foodie Question(s) by kab0906:
What is your "Favorite way to eat a potato,"? Roasted with the meat.
What is the "last meal you ate out."? ribeye, baked potato and broccoli.
Do you have "champagne for new years" or have you? Tried it once, didn't like it.
Just to:
Ever had a mishap opening a bottle of any kind: champagne, wine, . . . ketchup, pickles, etc. ? Of course, it's why I got married but then I discovered Rubbermaid or Tupperware (can't remember which) came up with these cheap rubber squares that helped you open a jar or bottle easier and I got a divorce. (If your wife tells you she married you for any other reason, she just doesn't want to hurt your feelings) But seriously, just 2 days ago I struggled with sauerkraut. Finally decided if I kept stabbing the plastic lid with a steak knife it would open and it did and no, didn't cut myself with the knife, just with the lid. Have you ever tried to open a tub of Philadelphia Whipped Cream Cheese or those tubs of dishwasher pods without cutting yourself? Why is the plastic lid so sharp? You want to reach for the needle nose pliers...Worst thing to break and spill while attempting to open is tomato sauce in a glass jar, especially if you walk around barefooted.
Stripes17: (suggested this summer) When you were younger, what did you "want to be" when you grew up and did you follow that path? Cowboy and no.
LauraC: What is/are your least favorite QOTD subject(s)? Deep subjects. Prefer light hearted subjects.
LauraC: Besides the problem for which you are visiting a doctor, what is the thing(s) you like least about a doctor visit? The long wait.
SUPbud: When it comes to "colorful kid-band-aids (Candy Crush, Winnie the Pooh, Snoopy designs, etc.) -" are they "only for kids, or would you use them as an adult"? Sure.
kygman: What's your favorite type of music and your favorite band/singer? Big band era, 50-60 oldies, early country western, early pops. Karen Carpenter is my favorite singer.
GiGi603: What is your favorite color? Redish orange.
Foodie Question(s) by kab0906:
What is your "Favorite way to eat a potato,"? With a fork.
What is the "last meal you ate out."? Country fried steak at a mom/pop cafe.
Do you have "champagne for new years" or have you? No, tastes like vinegar to me.
Just to:
Ever had a mishap opening a bottle of any kind: champagne, wine, . . . ketchup, pickles, etc. ? Have spilled one or 2 at one time or another.
