- Which British Children's Show did I plagiarize the thread title from? (
) Romper Room?
- What's your favorite houseplant? That's easy. The one in the corner that came from my kids preschool. It got infested with an ant colony, so we put it outside on the porch, but then left it out there for too long and the frost killed it, so I put the pot in the basement, and the following soring when I went down there, there was a beatiful fresh green shoot coming up from the root ball. The soil was as dry and hard as a brick, but the plant was regrowing. So I watered it and brought it back upstairs. That was 3 years ago and it's doing wonderfully now.
- You open the front door and there's a wet, scrawny puppy whimpering on the mat. What do you name it? Beat it. Scram.
- You win a free books from the "Idiot's Guide To" series. Which one do you choose? Gardening. I don't have any gardening books, and a nice how to would be good.
- Alaska or Florida 24/7/365? Florida. Alaska would be beautiful, but a difficult life. Florida would be ugly, but it has everything you need.
- What does your doormat look like? Some sort of natural fiber brown thing with deep bristles that point up. Looks smart.
- If you were to attempt to break a Guinness World record to raise money for a charity you support, what record would it be? String ball.
- Scrabble or Monopoly? Scrabble.
- Do you fold down the corner of the page to mark your place in the book you are reading? Never. Bookmark.
- How often do you wear a hat? 45 times a year.
- What is your favorite candy or chocolate bar? Regular milk chocolate M&Ms
- What is your most embarrassing "bodily (mal)function" moment? I guess when my fingers slipped while breaking the tail off a lobster, and it flew into my chest.
- What is the most you ever paid for a ticket to an event and what was the event? I can't remember. I've probably never gone over $100, because I'm too cheap. Probably something at the Kennedy Center. Peter Pan?
- What is the first non-English swear word you learned? sheisse
- How many roads must a man walk down? None. You can't force a person to walk. They can just go all limp noodle on you.
- How many open condiments do you have in your fridge? 13, including syrups and spreads.
- Darth Vader or The Terminator? Vader
