You lift it's head and it poops M&Ms.

4) Which is your favorite movie ever?

The Great Escape

5) It's raining. It wasn't when you left home. Do you wear a raincoat, use an umbrella, protect your head with your bag or something, or just get wet?

Just get wet, even though I typically have an umbrella in my car and in my briefcase.

6) Is any part of you itching right now?
Yes, but you don't really want to know where.

7) What was the last book you bought?
that's a toughie, because I buy so many, and hit a run of free downloads on the Kindle last night, which since they're free, don't really count, but ... okay The Prisoner - Thomas Disch

8) Do you use moisturizer regularly?
no

9) If calories, caffeine and cash considerations were no problem, what type of coffee would you order?
there are no calories in coffee until you start crapping it up with sugar and creamer. I drink my coffee black, so that's not an issue. I'd actually buy the same coffee I already buy. Most recent order of K-Cups includes Black Tiger, Santa's Buzz, Jet Fuel, and Double Black Diamond. I also tried something new, a Chocolate Glazed Donut flavor. Not sure if it's going to work for me, but I can always take it into the office if I don't like it. People are always looking for freebies there.

And no, I would not try that stuff that the civet cats poop out.

[COLOR="Navy"]Update to 4: I cannot believe I didn't mention the old black and white film of Hamlet, with Olivier. I saw it when I was about 9 years old ( i think), and fell completely in love with it. Had no expectations of it. Was only watching it because my big brother had been through a Shakespeare phase and I was copying. Hit me right between the eyes. Was mad into Shakespeare for years. Bought myself the complete works with some Christmas or Birthday booktokens. Or begged it for a birthday pressie..can't remember now. I must have seen a dozen different interpretations of that play now. But I still get a shiver down my spine with Olivier's performance. [/COLOR]

Actually, I'm not really liking this quiz. Soz and all that, it just doesn't tickle my fancy.
But it IS a quiz. And furthermore, one with no rhyme or reason. So I can't help myself.

If, like this morning, I went upstairs to get an umbrella at her behest but got distracted by Diz and got caught in a shower, I get wet. Unless I've not been arsed to wash my heair and have my hat on - in which case the rain is secondary.[/COLOR]

While going through my mom's stuff, I found this ceramic cow that has jugs that fit on its body and hold oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. It is so weird, we love it and it's been sitting on the wooden lazy susan in the middle of our dining room table.
