yea-long time ago. The good guy always pulls someone from the wreck seconds before it blows up and/or catches fire


~ What crimes have you ever seen in person?
just littering, speeding and such. Where I lived before someone was shooting hawks. Never found out who and it was just that summer.


~ Do you have a blender and do you ever use it? What do you use it for?
yes-bought it at a sidewalk sale. I was going to use it to make paper pulp but never did.


~ Anything that you would like to have replaced:
yes


~ How many bottles of stuff do you have in your shower/bath?
3 shampoo-one's almost empty.


~ Tell us about your socks in your drawer:there's an even number.

~ Your most comfy item of clothing that feels good to wear:
jeans, sweatshirts


~ Have you ever had a glass window broken on your vehicle?
yea-hitchhiker threw a stone at my windshield. It was night and I didn't realize the window was cracked until the next day.


~ Do you have a car wash in your area?
sure. quite a few.


~ Have you ever enjoyed any kind of taco?
taco salad but not recently


~ Are there any kind of fences near your home?
The people up the road have a chain link fence around most of their property. They didn't put it there but of course didn't remove it when they moved in.


~ The last thing you forgot:
shopping list when I was shopping.


~ Have you any good pizzeria in your town?
a few chains and 1 mom/pop. Not sure if they're good as I'm not a pizza-aholic.


**** Happy Friday and week to you all! Thank you for attending! ****

~ Have you ever watched a car chase on television? Please tell what you remember, any details: - Just the OJ fiasco.

Occasionally on YouTube...

~ What crimes have you ever seen in person? - I came to the rescue of a woman getting mugged in the mid-90s.

I was mugged myself in January, 1992 in Washington, DC. I was jumped by 2 thugs who I never saw coming...

~ Do you have a blender and do you ever use it? What do you use it for? - No blender here.

~ Anything that you would like to have replaced: - My apartment.

IDK if that is going to happen anytime soon, especially with the news yesterday that the company I work for is close to being sold to a much bigger construction company.

Along with that the building will close.

Can't say that was unexpected and I mentioned it here that may happen soon due to the owners being old. I have a good chance to be picked up but I highly doubt my other two office colleagues will. I'll be hearing more on this soon.

~ How many bottles of stuff do you have in your shower/bath? - Two plastic bottles.

~ Tell us about your socks in your drawer: - No dresser drawer here, they are on coat hangers...

~ Your most comfy item of clothing that feels good to wear: - IDK

~ Have you ever had a glass window broken on your vehicle? - Yes, ice from a blizzard we had in December, 2009.

~ Do you have a car wash in your area? - Not too close, I couldn't tell you where the closest one is.

~ Have you ever enjoyed any kind of taco? - Brought up the other day...

~ Are there any kind of fences near your home? - No

~ The last thing you forgot: - Probably something minor at a store.

~ Have you any good pizzeria in your town? - Probably, I just haven't found it. I prefer to buy by the slice. There are 3 places I am thinking of right now but none of them are in this city.

**** Happy Friday and week to you all! Thank you for attending! **** - Thanks for your time!

Yes. The dumbest thing to broadcast.

Theft, graffiti in progress, street fights...

I have, but mostly use a hand blender. For gravy, cream soups, smoothies...

Yeah. I need to replace a door lock.

~ Have you ever enjoyed any kind of taco?

No. We don't have any fences, so the deer and coyotes can roam freely

~ The last thing you forgot:

To go to bed

~ Have you any good pizzeria in your town?

~ Have you ever watched a car chase on television? Please tell what you remember, any details:
I've run across those on T.V. while channel surfing, but I don't stop to watch.

~ What crimes have you ever seen in person? None, but when I was in WalMart the other day, I saw some police officers escorting a guy out of the store.

~ Do you have a blender and do you ever use it? I have one I use often What do you use it for? I use it for Acia/fruit shakes. I have a double blender in my basement that I used often when I gave parties. I should put it on the curb today.

~ Anything that you would like to have replaced: No, within the past year I replaced the refrigerator, the hot water heater, an outside faucet, and some PVC plumbing in the basement.

~ How many bottles of stuff do you have in your shower/bath? 3

~ Tell us about your socks in your drawer: They're boring

~ Your most comfy item of clothing that feels good to wear: A hooded, zip up the front, sweat shirt that's looking pretty rough.

~ Have you ever had a glass window broken on your vehicle? Yes, from a dump truck in front of me spraying my windshield with stones.

~ Do you have a car wash in your area? Yes, 3 or 4

~ Have you ever enjoyed any kind of taco? Only once in awhile, at Taco Bell

~ Are there any kind of fences near your home? Yes, Last summer, I had a new survey completed even though my first survey was completed in 1982. Then I had a brand new white vinyl fence installed on one side of my lawn.....only because the new neighbors from Hell next door insisted that was their land. I guess they thought since I was an 83 yr. old woman, recently widowed, they'd take advantage of me. Guess What? .....(Vent)

~ The last thing you forgot: Working late last night in my office, I forgot to sign a report that I sent over the Internet. I woke up at 2 a.m. to check and see if I actually did forget. I did, and resent the signed report at 2:10 a.m.

~ Have you any good pizzeria in your town? Lots of bad ones, and one very good one.

Thanks Roosty!

Just another crazy week it was for us!

~ Have you ever watched a car chase on television? Please tell what you remember, any details: I remember watching the infamous white Bronco with OJ Simpson on TV while working my evening job. It was really weird to see a "chase" that was going so slow.

~ What crimes have you ever seen in person? I was robbed (with a gun) while working at a liquor store in college, 1973. More recently walking to work in the 3rd/Pine area of Seattle in the morning I witnessed many drug transactions.

~ Do you have a blender and do you ever use it? What do you use it for? Yes, a Ninja, used for smoothies, shakes, and large amounts of pesto.

~ Anything that you would like to have replaced: The headliner on my 1974 Nova (on my "to do" list)

~ How many bottles of stuff do you have in your shower/bath? 2, shampoo and conditioner.

~ Tell us about your socks in your drawer: About 80% are low-cut, a few crew socks, and a few brown or blue dress socks that are rarely used.

~ Your most comfy item of clothing that feels good to wear: Pocket Tees, from Duluth Trading. I have about 14 of them.
~ Have you ever had a glass window broken on your vehicle? Yes, when a thief broke into a new 1990 Bronco a week after I bought it, and when someone dropped a rock off the overpass onto my windshield on the way to work in a 1980 Datsun 210.

~ Do you have a car wash in your area? Yes, two, each about 5 miles in opposite directions.

~ Have you ever enjoyed any kind of taco? Lots of times, from several places, even Taco Bell years ago when they were 32 cents.

~ Are there any kind of fences near your home? Pretty much every house has a fence, most are cedar, including ours.

~ The last thing you forgot: Why I went into the kitchen earlier this morning.

~ Have you any good pizzeria in your town? We have one, called Jobo's Pizza Pub 4 miles away, just went there on Wednesday. We also have the usual chains of mediocre pizza within a mile but never go there any more: Dominos, Papa Murphy's, Papa John's, Mod, and two decent local chains: Pagliacci, Zeeks. That's 7 pizza places in a small city, and there was one more that closed recently.
