Today's Question(s):

When you are planning a vacation or flight, do you book online or directly with the vacation place or airline? Could be either. Depends on the trip.

Do you remember your dreams? Some of them. Just last night I dreamed that somebody pointed out to me that the entire back of my head was bald , and I'd had no clue before the person told me. Where the heck did THAT notion come from? LOL!

If so have you ever dreamed about something that happened the day(s) before? Nope.

Inquiring Minds Question:
What's your favorite thing about the Month of September? The weather.

Extra Credit Question:
How many folks in your life have mustaches or beards? Many.

How many of our QOTD family have mustaches or beards? I have no idea. I have neither!

Just for Fun:
Are you able to fall asleep if you're a passenger in/on a:
Car ?
Plane ?
Train ?
Bus ?
None. I'm a vigilant passenger, regardless of how long the trip. Wish I could sleep, but it just doesn't happen for me.

Today in History:
1689 - Russia began taxing men's beards
1752 - Liberty Bell arrives in Philadelphia
1859 - 1st Pullman sleeping car in service
1962 - U.N. announces Earth population has hit 3 billion (estimate, for mid-year 2009, is 6,790,062,216).

Word of the Day:
anacoluthia \ an-uh-kuh-LOO-thee-uh \ , noun;

We see a lot of anacoluthia here on C-D.

September is:
Better Breakfast Month
National Biscuit Month

Emma M. Nutt Day (1st female telephone operator ) Gotta love the name!

Hey all. Today's my last day of summer and I start school again tomorrow, so I think this might be my last QOTD for a while. Wish me luck.

Today's Question(s):


When you are planning a vacation or flight, do you book online or directly with the vacation place or airline ?
I've never had to do that kind of planning. If I ever have to, I assume it'll be online.

Bonus Question:

Do you remember your dreams ?
Almost always. I dream so much that I have a hard time actually getting rest from my sleep, I wake up exhausted. I'm aware of most of my dreams everytime I wake up, and I almost never forget.
If so have you ever dreamed about something that happened the day(s) before ?
Yeah, and things from weeks or months or years before too.

Inquiring Minds Question:

Whats your favorite thing about the Month of September ?
My birthday, I'm turning 20 next week. It's the start of school too, which I hate, but it's also the start of fall and the colder half of the year with snow and Christmas and everything, and I love that.

Extra Credit Question:

How many folks in your life have mustaches or beards ?
My dad has a mustache but he's not really in my life. Other than that, I see kids around school that have em.
How many of our QOTD family have mustaches or beards ?
Well, I do my best to keep it off lol.

Just for Fun:

Are you able to fall asleep if your a passenger in/on a:
Car ?
I used to be able to, but not since I was in an accident as a passenger a year ago.
Plane ? Yeah, that's easy.
Train ? Yeah, I do that alot.
Bus ? Maybe when I was lil, I don't think you should be falling asleep on a bus though unless, I guess, you live on it.

And now, I guess I should think about being ready for class.


That's the look I'll have on my face when I get there.

And that's what I'll be doing in class lol.
