It is that time of the week again. Time to play our getting to know you game. Time for me to think of new and exciting questions to ask. Time for me to be like Pooh. And think-think-think. And get a huge crease in my forehead from thinking. Because I can't think of any more either or questions.
You are going on Jeopardy. What charity will you play for?
What category do you hope will show up because you'll sweep the board?
What category do you hope they will not include?
What blogger do you not want to play against in Jeopardy so that your charity has the chance to win big?
I so wanted to come up with 10 Jeopardy related questions. But I cannot think of anymore. Moving on...
What is your favorite flower?
If you could live in any home from a TV series, which would you pick?
What is your favorite Muppet movie?

Hey there! Hating Feedjit is completely and totally irrational and ridiculous, but what can I say? I'm just that way!
ReplyDeleteBut you can get all the items you mentioned on Sitemeter and more details even! You just have to click around. It took me a while to find all the features, but you can get page entry rankings, sort by referrals, location, entry page, or exit page. To get more info, you just click the visit number.
That's pretty cool that CNN linked to you! I know a famous blogger now! Seriously, none of the other famous bloggers ever talk to me! " )

My father was a mortician and I thought for a long time about becoming a medical examiner, but I couldn't get over the smells. I suppose that's why I didn't go into the medical field at all. I have a hard time with smells period!
WOW! This could take me as long as the 7 random things meme!! I'll attempt to answer all these questions quickly, but don't be surprised if I stop in the middle because I'm laaaay-zeeee!
My charity would be Lions Clubs Intl. It is a charity that assists persons with visual or hearing impairment. It's off the beaten path, but still a very deserving charity/service organization.

My favorite Muppet Movie is ALL OF THEM! I love the first one because it is just plain awesome and the songs are amazing! But in Manhattan, Piggy and Kermie get married!

Lunch yesterday was leftover Green Goddess Pork Chops, grilled zucchini and summer squash, and strawberries.
My favorite word?? BALDERDASH!!!
The worst tasting thing I've ever eaten was raw squid at a very expensive sushi restaurant. It started out firm, then immediately turned liquid when I started to chew it and THEN started to firm back up. Uuuuuuuuuugh! It was 11 years ago and it still gives me the iggles. blech!! I couldn't swallow it! Don't get me wrong, I LOVES me some sushi, but this was apalling!!
Feee-yoof! I can't believe I finished! That only took an hour or two! " )
