Today's Question:
Who will be watching the Superbowl tomorrow ?

Nope. Don't follow football at all. Couldn't tell you who is playing and don't really give a hoot either .


Bonus Question:
What is the fastest you have ever driven ?

Cop said he was toped out at 155MPH and I pulled away from him. Jeeze he was pissed when we talked at his house that afternoon. As for what speed I was going, I have no idea; the needle was pegged and will just have to go by his guess of 165+ (too darn fast really.)

What is the fastest speed a vehicle you have been a passenger in has gone?

Been is a car doing 140 before as a passanger, didn't like it one tiny bit. Let me drive and I am fine, but I HATE riding.


Extra Credit Question:
Have you ever trimmed or cut your own hair ?
No

How about someone else's ? My sons one time when he was real small.


Just for fun :
Brussel Sprouts yay or nay
NAY, NAY, NAY.

How many rolls of scotch tape are in your home ? I have 4 kids under 12, you're kidding right . They last about 2.5 seconds after entering the house. Then everything is taped up, down and together.

Today's Question:

Who will be watching the Superbowl tomorrow ?
I will be, Go Cardinals! I'll also be on call (from work) until midnight Monday morning, so if I get paged, I'll have to step away from the TV and to the computer..

Will anyone be hosting or going to a SB party ? My best friend will be, and he's going to have a cook-out also, unfortunately, I need to stay home, but I have a nice ribeye steak just waiting for me to cook it on the grill tomorrow afternoon!

Any special SB snacks you will be looking forward to ? Oh sure and ruin that new year's resolution to lose 10 pounds! - No I won't be having any snacks.

Bonus Question:

What is the fastest you have ever driven ?
105 MPH on Interstate 10 coming back from Los Angeles in May of 1982, it was on a stretch between Indio and Blythe in my Camaro Z-28. It was about 11:00 PM, and there wasn't much traffic, so I decided put the pedal to the metal!

What is the fastest speed a vehicle you have been a passenger in has gone? LOL.. okay Karla, you asked! - On a United Airlines Boeing 727-200, from Phoenix to Chicago in 1980. At cruise altitude, The captain said that we were going with the wind stream, and the airspeed of the aircraft topped 700 MPH! I remember another time in 1996, I was on a flight from Phoenix to Portland on an Alaska Airlines McDonnell Douglas MD-83, and the captain said that we were going about 675 MPH.

Extra Credit Question:

Have you ever trimmed or cut your own hair ?
LOL.. not lately!

How about someone else's ? LOL.. when we were kids, I was 9, my sisters were 6 and 3, and I cut their hair.... - that's when I figured hair-cutting wasn't for me! And yes, I got yelled at, and I got sent to my room!

Just for fun :

Brussel Sprouts yay or nay -
That's a yay.

How many rolls of scotch tape are in your home ? Scotch tape, is that when you dip tape in Scotch? - I got one... without Scotch... but it's been years since I've used it!

Oooooooh right, after a bit of internet prying I have discovered that scotch tape is what we here know simply as 'sticky tape'. We tend to get to the point here.
