After 2 cups of potent vanilla coffee in my Broncos mug, a 50 mg. Tramadol, a few puffs off the Imagine smoking apparatus and now a cold beer to soothe the coughing outbreak I just had due to taking a different approach to getting a larger 'toke', I am ready for the Terrific Tuesday questions by dear Pamorola.

Hey, I don't get cobwebs.


TODAY'S QUESTIONS! Is it really today? I mean, think about it.

When was the last time you read a magazine?


Had to have been when I was still subscribing to Consumer Reports magazine. Heck, it has been maybe 7 years(?) now...I do not miss it.


What is the name of your favorite magazine? [Side note to MMike: Victoria's Secret catalogs don't count. ] Victoria's Secret catalogs.

Do you ever cut articles, tips or recipes out of magazines and save them for future reference? Nope but I have admired cute art cuticles on many womens. And shoes.


When you are finished with a magazine, do you:
  • throw it away?
  • give it away?
  • save it? Save it until the stack gets too big and then discard them in such a way so that they are clean and fresh and there for someone to take them home and enjoy. We are the stewards for a Little Free Library that is located here at our home. Now any books or magazines will get placed in there...

BONUS QUESTIONS


What year did you purchase your first PC, and what model was it?


Maybe 1988...I had a 8088 and a 8086 XT computer.


How many different Internet passwords do you have (an estimate is fine)?


Nope, not even an estimate will I give. That is top secret information that nobody should ever give away to anyone. My answer here will be NONE.


If you have a favorite number, do you use it in any of your usernames or passwords?


I cannot believe you are asking this. Extra funny because of my buzz...


Do you upload photographs to the Internet for storage?


Nope. My camera/gadget/device! put the pictures on my personal Internet 'cloud' as soon as I click the shutter button. Super-very convenient, to say the least!


Have you ever ordered prints of your photos via a website?


Nopey, I own a photograph printer that quickly prints your photos in 4 x 6 beauties in your choice of matte/gloss.


Have you ever ordered a book, poster, coffee mug or other item which has one or more of your photos on it? If so, tell us about it/them.


I don't think I ever did but I certainly though about it. I would choose a coffee mug and a tee shirt. Yayyyy!


EXTRA CREDIT - YAY!

What sorts of races have you watched in person?

Car races, pig races, human races, other animal races, harness horse races, greyhound races very many times, quarter horse races and thoroughbred horse races ( of which I have been to thousands. )


Have you ever bet on a race? If so, did you win?


Thousands of times and yes I won very many times. Bucket list: go to races with John.


Have you ever participated in a race? If so, did you win?


Yes, baton relay race and yes. And beer races. Plus Olympic Showering races.



Which of these types of races would you like to watch on TV?
  • Olympic 1000 meter foot race
  • Boston Marathon
  • Indianapolis 500 for a short while, not whole race
  • NASCAR Daytona 500.....just for a short while, never watched a whole race.
  • Thoroughbred racing
  • Harness racing
  • Greyhound racing
  • Speed skating....pretty cool, really. I'd love to do it! I skate pretty well.
  • Iditarod
  • Ironman Triathlon
  • Other
That's it for today's racy questions, kids. It's about time for me to hit the sack and get some zzzzzs. Till next time, have fun and keep on keepin' on!

Last year.

Don't really have one. Last ones I subscribed to was Country looking for road trip ideas and Bird Watchers Digest.

Do you ever cut articles, tips or recipes out of magazines and save them for future reference? No

When you are finished with a magazine, do you:
•throw it away?

Throw it away.


BONUS QUESTIONS


What year did you purchase your first PC, and what model was it?


My first PC was a Commodore 64 and it was purchased by my then husband as a gift for me in 1982 or 1983 or 1984. My first "real" home computer was purchased in 1995. I think it was a Packard Bell.

How many different Internet passwords do you have (an estimate is fine)?

If you have a favorite number, do you use it in any of your usernames or passwords?

I don't answer password questions.

Do you upload photographs to the Internet for storage?

Some are uploaded to the Internet for public and private display but not storage. All are stored on two drives on my computer (but not the Internet) and with a back up company. You are all welcome to look at the public gallery of 20 photos that I have up now. Click on the sideways triangle above the large image to play it as a slideshow. They are altered photos:

https://zzcapphotos.smugmug.com/Altered-Images

Have you ever ordered prints of your photos via a website?

No. Currently have a photo printer. Just use it for enlargements for two annual competitions. Back in the old days, took them to the store. Except for competitions don't print photos these days.

Have you ever ordered a book, poster, coffee mug or other item which has one or more of your photos on it? If so, tell us about it/them.

Back in my hockey fan years (1980s), I had photos in the NY Islanders cookbook and someone wrote to me once and asked if one of my photos could be used in her husband's book. Photo was taken in 2009 during a living history event in Kentucky involving The Cumberland Gap. Haven't done anything like that myself. If I did, it would be mailing labels.

EXTRA CREDIT - YAY!

What sorts of races have you watched in person?
flats and harness

Have you ever bet on a race? If so, did you win?

Have bet on horse races when I've been there in person in NY and West Virginia. Never won anything more than a few dollars.

Which of these types of races would you like to watch on TV?

I used to like the winter Olympic biathlon that involved shooting and cross country skiing. But I haven't watched the Olympics in a long time. Don't watch any races on TV these days.
