TODAY'S QUESTIONS

Do you own one or more articles of clothing that contain:
  • stripes? No
  • polka dots? No
  • houndstooth? No
  • plaid? A couple of short-sleeved shirts
  • paisley? No
  • tie dye? No
  • flowers? No
At your present job (or previous job if you are no longer working), what sort of clothing do/did you wear?
It was a casual place, and most employees wore jeans, flannel shirts or polos, down vests and athletic shoes. I had come from an office environment so I continued to dress up a little more than I needed to. I usually wore coordinated sportswear outfits or slacks with a blouse and jacket.
Have you ever worn socks with sandals?
No way.

EXTRA CREDIT QUESTIONS

When was the last time you walked barefoot outdoors?
I actually don't remember. It's not a good idea to do that in the city.
If you had the opportunity, would you walk in mud just for the fun of it?
Oh, sure. That sounds like fun.
Have you ever been outside during a rain shower and tilted your head back so you could catch raindrops in your mouth?
Yes, I've done that.
If you own an umbrella, what does it look like?
It's a boring tan color.
Tell us about one of your favorite active games (as opposed to board games, cards, etc.) when you were a kid. (E.g., tag, Red Rover, jump rope, statues.)
I always liked jump rope, hopscotch, dodgeball, swings and slides.
Did you have a hiding place when you were a kid?
No, but my bedroom was my private haven.


BONUS QUESTIONS


Have you ever had a bird eat out of your hand?
Yes, at the San Francisco Zoo. They had a budgie exhibit. The zoo sold seed sticks coated with honey that we could use to lure the birds down from their tree for a snack.
Have you ever heard a bird talk?
Only on YouTube. There are some videos with very funny X-rated talking parrots.
When was the last time you heard a bird sing?
A day or two ago when I was outside and could hear the wild songbirds.
Do you think bats are cool?
No, not really.
Have you ever seen a flying squirrel?
No, but as a kid my brother and I used to shoot at ground squirrels. I never hit one.
Have you ever seen a flying fish?
No, but I have seen a school of dolphins leaping out of the water and following our boat in Hawaii.
If you suddenly developed the ability to fly, where would you fly first?
I don't like heights, so I would probably fly up to the roof so I could check to see if there are any leaves in our gutter.


Hello, Alph and Meggie! And thanks, Pam!

When I used to work, I spent a lot of my working life in uniform of one kind and another. Soldier, computer chip maker, post man, security guard.........I guess it saved wearing out my own clothing. I did office work also, and worrying about what to wear each day was time consuming........

I did wear socks with sandals many, many years ago. I also always wear white socks with my sneakers. I do it because some say I shouldn't. I don't follow fashion, I lead it..........

Do I own a umbrella? I live in England, of course I do!! It's a nice large black one.........

Games I played as a kid? Boy, there were loads........ I was always running about playing street games. My favourite was 'knock a door, runaway.' I believe it is known by a different name in America. Boy, how we laughed after knocking at a house door, then running away and hiding. The real brave thing to do was go back to the same house, and do it again.........

I did have a hiding place when I was a kid. It was my bedroom where I lay for hours reading my Superman comics.

I have had birds eating out of my hand. Do you mean girl birds, or real birds?............

If I developed the ability to fly, the first place I would go would be Las Vegas.........

Have a great day all.
