How much do you love your job: I'm retired. > > 11. Hometown: Small farm near Tailholt, Indiana. > > 12. Current Residence: Winona Lake, Indiana. > > 13. Favorite Food: Somebody Else's Cooking. > > 14. Been to Africa? No. > > 15. Been toilet papering? Never been my kind of thing > > 16. Loved somebody so much it made you cry? Would running in circles like a chicken with its head off do? > > 17. Been in a car accident? Yes -- I live in the U.S.A., after all. (Our culture is extremely hostile[1] to learning and obeying the rules of the road.) Fender-benders only, thank goodness. > > 18. Croutons or bacon bits? Yes. > > 19. Favorite day(s) of the week: Day of the week? I'm *retired*! > > 20. Favorite word or phrase: It would be nice if I could persuade my spelling checker to ask me to reconsider all instances of "but". But I can't read the compressed file, so I can't delete it from words.mas. > > 21. Favorite Restaurant: . . . I like restaurants where I've never been. But the Great Wall is always acceptable. > > 23. Favorite Drink(s) water > > 24. Favorite sport to watch: something that doesn't interfere with conversation and knitting. > > 25.

McDonald's always has a back door near the restroom so you don't have to go past the counter to get there. > > 28. What color is your bedroom carpet? speckled grey. > > 29. How many times did you fail your drivers test? Once. So I practiced parallel parking intensely -- and parallel parking wasn't on the second test! And I haven't parallel parked since. > > 30. Who is the last person you got email from? The last one that I haven't deleted is an empty message from my sister, which had an empty attachment. I'm going to have to inquire about that. > > 31. Do you sing in the shower? Never. I used to sing on the bike, on the theory that anyone who was annoyed wouldn't be able to catch me. > > 32. Which store would you choose to max out your credit card? Whoever would be silly enough to max out a card? Particularly considering DH once put a hotel bill for a fire company on it and *that* didn't do it. The only store (aside from an on-line fabric shop) where I use my card is the grocery -- it takes longer than writing a check, but I always make mistakes when writing a check with an impatient line behind me, and a machine fills out the credit slip for me. > > 33.

What is your favorite TV show (s): Our TV guide isn't set up to allow me to find a particular show (it only tells what is on at a particular time), so I haven't bothered to find out which shows I like.

[1] In this area, the primary symptom is disregard for red lights. The yellow comes on only a millisecond before the red, and the first half of the red is used for yellow. Only a few days ago, the local paper printed a letter saying we don't really need to learn to stop at red lights, because people have learned to hesitate and look both ways before going through a green light. The preferred solution to the resulting frequent crashes on Route 30 is to build cloverleafs at all the intersections. -- Joy Beeson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.earthlink.net/~joybeeson/ http://home.earthlink.net/~beeson_n3f/ west of Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A. where it's getting summery out.
