Okay, not in a serious mood today.  Had a margarita and a half for dinner last night and finally got a semi-decent night of sleep.  There's a lesson in there somewhere.
 
So, here's a few totally unrelated questions to spark some conversation.
 
1.  If you were a candy bar, which one would you be?
 
2.  Do you know your wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/special friend's clothing sizes?
 
3.  What is the one thing you always enjoy shopping for?
 
4.  If your life had a tag line, what would it be?
 
5.  Have you ever been on a blind date and would you do it again?
 
6.  Which decade in the last 100 years would you choose to live in if you could take your friends and family with you?
 
7.  A casual acquaintence presents their very ugly baby to you and asks you "Isn't he/she the cutest thing?!!".  How do you respond?
 
8.  How old do you want to get?
 
9.  What color is your winter jacket?
 
10.  Why do SCers love these silly polls?
 
I'll go first ..... I hope!

    1.  If you were a candy bar, which one would you be? I'd like to be a dark chocolate hersey bar with almonds.  You know, smooth, rich, tasty and a little bit nuts.
     
    2.  Do you know your wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/special friend's clothing sizes? Yes, but I rarely have the audacity to shop for him.
     
    3.  What is the one thing you always enjoy shopping for?  Books and Tea
     
    4.  If your life had a tag line, what would it be? Warning: Contents Under Pressure.
     
    5.  Have you ever been on a blind date and would you do it again?  Yes, and maybe.
     
    6.  Which decade in the last 100 years would you choose to live in if you could take your friends and family with you?  I think I might like the post WWII years.
     
    7.  A casual acquaintence presents their very ugly baby to you and asks you "Isn't he/she the cutest thing?!!".  How do you respond?  Most likely as generically as possible.  I have seen some real ugly babies, and I always hope they'll grow out of it.
     
    8.  How old do you want to get?  I'm thinking 90ish
     
    9.  What color is your winter jacket?  Black, one with faux fur trim
     
    10.  Why do SCers love these silly polls?  Because we all have the answers to the questions!!

    7.  A casual acquaintence presents their very ugly baby to you and asks you "Isn't he/she the cutest thing?!!".  How do you respond? I pick a feature that actually is nice (eyes, skin, smile, whatever) and give an honest compliment.
     
    8.  How old do you want to get? It'd be cool to hit great-grandma territory, but I'm not interested in outliving the love of my life by several years or even decades.

    TIO - No, 100 years is the limit!  I hadn't considered outliving my love or children, but I guess at 90 that's a possibility.

    5)  Never been on a blind date, have no desire to.

    6)  The decade I'd choose would be the fifties.

    7)  If someone showed me thier ugly baby I'd say 'glad its yours and not mine' - that's what I tell everyone, ugly or pretty.

    8)  How old do I want to get? - anytime after seventy-five, probably before eighty-five.

    9)  My winter jackets are - denim, beige and blue, light tan, dark and light brown, black.

    10) I usually answer polls because of boredom.

    BTV - so you're sweet but really nutty? (candybar)  I also think payday candy bars are pretty salty, so I guess that figures in?  I enjoy shopping for guns too as long as we're looking at pistols.  I'm in lust with Walther PPKs right now, but likely won't buy one for quite a while.

  • uniquely-ironic said on Oct 22, 2008....
    silver - your tag line is in sharp contrast to your no blind dates policy!!  Yes, I realize so cal doesn't have winter winters, but even here in the north we don something thicker than a windbreaker for Nov - Feb.
     
    ET - LOL on your tag line and #7.  I can understand your reluctance to go on blind dates given your history.  Luckily you're married so you don't need to worry about it. ;)  As for the aging thing, you'd probably not want to go past 50, since looks are the first thing to go.  Sucks, but aging isn't for sissies.
     
    Lucy - How do Australian sizes sinc up with US sizes?  So you want to be 98?  Is this so you can continue to oggle men for a long long time?  (I think so!)  A lot of babies (newborn anyway) are not so cute, but there are a select few that are downright homely.  Good thing mothers can't see past their mommie love.
  • travelr712 said on Oct 22, 2008....

    6.  Which decade in the last 100 years would you choose to live in if you could take your friends and family with you? 1970's. I'd try to do them better this time.

    trav - LOL the 70s.  You were just a kid back then, no?  You really put a lot of thought into that candy bar analogy didn't you?  Very engineerish of you ;)  Makes the geek toy shopping glee that much more believable.

poll fun (Click to add tags below)

(Separate tags using commas, for example: New York, dating, vegetarian)

I'm thankful for all my SC friends. :-) So to pay tribute I will make the turkery, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy. You can bring a side dish or dessert.

All are welcome.

What will you bring?

CW...
On a very cold and rainy night, I took in two little strangers....
a poll of sorts...
or is that a myth?...
Please? Oh come on, it'll be fun. :-)...
