The lawnmower man.... we don't have a lawn mower, so we pay Jim's Mowing to mow our lawns. If I had one, I'd do it myself.... because nobody else will.

question: What's your favourite poem? or favourite poet?

Hmmm, I don't really have a favourite poem or a favourit poet but if I have to choose I say Johann Wolfgang Goethe as fav poet and "Faust" as fav poem. Surely Faust is not really a poem but it is written in poem style and many rhymes are very good.

Do you believe in white and black magic?

Who is the coolest (most admirable) person you know ?

What? They don't make soyaroni? That's a travesty!

The most admirable person I know is my grandmother. She's 97 and completely with it. She's the oldest of 8 siblings and all but one are dead. My grandfather died and she lost two of her three sons, but she keeps active and always has a smile for everyone. She doesn't judge people and she keeps learning new things. She's my role model, in fact.

Do you mop the floor, or scrub the floor?

do you think that most video games are overrated?

quirky · Post by **quirky** » Fri Apr 15, 2005 2:03 am

Yes, I do. But I should preface with a disclaimer...I don't play them.

I was just a bit ahead of the video game boom...I remember the Atari...with the dot that boinked around and the moveable slashes.

I think it was called Pong. Back in the day *takes out dentures for comfort and loosens girdle* I used to play with a cardboard refrigerator box. If you could get a couple of them, you could make a really cool fort. You would cut out windows and put Saran Wrap (clingfilm) over them. In my best boxfort I had a custom shelf and a radio. I would pretend to live in it with my dolls.

Now that I have related my ultracool past, I bet you wish you had boxforts, too,don't you?

Later, I always had my head in a book, or played the piano.

So, I missed the video games. Now I can't even work them.

It's a wonder I can log onto this computer.

However, this Easter....I did enjoy a good round of Peepsteroids and Peep Invaders here:

I hope the link still works.

Which is generally prettier for you? Sunrise, or sunset?

I guess sunsets always seemed prettier... that's because I see them more...

can't get up early these days........ *sigh*

I wish I had a cardboard fort......

Do you prefer stars or crosses? (Used to like crosses, now more into stars... *shrugs*)

There have been SO many.

But the worst was probably in 8th grade, when I was sitting at the front of History class. I heard giggling in the back of class...which I ignored, but it got louder until the teacher finally turned red and said, "******( name omitted to protect the guily)...you pass that back up to the front!"

See...the person behind me had taken my purse off the back of my chair and it made it's way back to ******, who was (to add injury to embarrassment) REALLY cute! He had gotten a tampon out and was twirling it around and around.

My face was still beet red in Chorus two hours later.

You have a one-pound lump of putty in front of you. What do you sculpt?

Dang...that's hard. I have to be honest.

Making it on a national TV game show and winning. I was just sad that my dad died and he couldn't see it because we used to watch the show together.

Have you ever decorated a cake...beyond the traditional layer of frosting?
