Today’s Question:

When was the last time you visited a US Post Office, and what did you do there?
Probably about a month ago to check my mail. All I ever get are bills and junk mail so no sense wasting a lot of time checking it every day. Have to go in 3 weeks to put a hold on my bills and junk mail until I know what my new address will be after I move.

Extra Credit Question:

What’s the most ‘dare devil’ thing you’ve ever done – such as jumping out of a plane, white water rafting, bungee jumping, abseiling, mountain-climbing, etc.?
I am not much of a 'dare devil' kind of person. Unlike some people I do not enjoy sitting in hospital ER's waiting to get put back together.

What’s the most ‘dare devil’ thing you’d like to do in the future?
Eat stinky cheese while sitting in a crowded airplane.


Bonus Question:

I know three people who have a birthday today. Do you know anyone with a birthday today?
I just checked my daily planner and could not believe what I saw. Not a single birthday party to attend today. I guess I do not know anyone with a birthday today.

Just for fun:


Today is Organize Your Home Office Day. Do you have a home office? If so, does it need organizing?
I have a home office. It needs organizing. However there is no chance I will organize it today. Not likely it will get organized tomorrow either.
