~ What types of computers do you still have? Somewhere packed away is an old Radioshack Tandy computer my dad bought waaaaaaay back when. Other than that an old laptop somewhere and my old reliable desktop.

~ Would you ever like to own a 'land line' telephone again? Do phone companies still maintain them? Like if ever cell towers were blown away by some electro magnetic storms or some off the wall SHTF scenario... maybe.

~ How far is a long drive when driving someplace, according to you? On a lot of days going to work is a long drive, over thirty minutes each way.
But generally a long drive is anything over about 3-5 hours IMO


~ Are you enjoying your winter so far? Mostly, not much snow yet, but those bitter cold winds last week weren't any fun.

~ Do you ever have breakfast for dinner? Do you like doing that? Sure, and I like it. I also frequently have dinner for breakfast.


~ Only choose 4 hand tools: ? Screwdriver, hammer, handsaw, wrench, if i can throw in a shovel those ought to take care of most things

~ Have you any 'slip on' shoes/footwear? Several pair, I'm all about comfort and ease over looks

~ Any frozen food brands that you might buy: Deep Indian breads, Stouffers lasagna and Marie Callander pub pies

Doesn't really matter. I had land line and mobile for a while, decided that I didn't need land line anymore.

My son lives 5 hrs away each way, and I visit him every month. It's a long drive...

I don't care for assigned meals at particular hours. I eat what's on hand or what I want.

Level, saw, pliers, wise.

Yes - house shoes.

~ What types of computers do you still have?
Desktop, tablet, smartphone

~ Would you ever like to own a 'land line' telephone again? No. 1) I get nervous if I forget my phone when I'm in the car because now I couldn't walk to get help if I had to if the car broke down. 2) If you mean in addition to my cell phone, I don't need or want two phones.

~ How far is a long drive when driving someplace, according to you? When I have to spend one overnight in a hotel halfway to my destination location. For me, that's about after 8 hours of driving.

~ Are you enjoying your winter so far? Sure, no problem except for my electric bill doubling during that really cold snap we had.

~ Do you ever have breakfast for dinner? Do you like doing that? I do. Once in awhile I'll have microwaveable oatmeal if I waited too long (around 8:00P) to have dinner.

~ Only choose 4 hand tools: regular screwdriver, Phillips head screwdriver, needle nose pliers, hammer.

~ Have you any 'slip on' shoes/footwear? No

~ Any frozen food brands that you might buy: Birds Eye (microwave in bag vegetables), Celentano (ravioli), Mayfield (ice cream), Banquet (brown and serve sausages), Totinos (cheese pizza rolls), White Castle (microwave cheeseburger sliders - good for when you get home late at night), Kelloggs (Eggo waffles).
