Today’s Questions:
You are sitting in your airline seat waiting to take off when a celebrity is seated right next to you. Who do you hope it will be? Certainly, I'd hope it wasn't some Hollywood jerk, because I'd have to move. I'd hope it was George W. Bush (the son). I had a long, private conversation with him a few years ago, and he's one of the most interesting famous people I've ever met.
What will your reaction be? Will you chat the person up, just smile and nod, or pretend you don’t know who they are? He is a very friendly, forthcoming person, so we'd chat.
At what age do you think a person is too old to still be playing video games? Doesn't matter, to each his own.
Do you know what a Fluffernutter is, and have you ever had one? Yes, I fixed those often in the 50's and on to the 60's and 70's for our kids.
Do you think that a man and a woman can be just friends? Yes. I have many male friends affiliated with my business.....more male than female.
Have you ever been “just friends” with someone of the opposite sex? Yes
I should eat veggies more often.
I need to stop wasting timeso much.
One of my best qualities is I'm a 'people' person.

International Working Women’s Day Just another work day in my home-office
Today’s Questions:
You are sitting in your airline seat waiting to take off when a celebrity is seated right next to you. Who do you hope it will be? Not for the same reasons as wit-nit I would also say Taylor Swift--she is amazing how she appreciates her fans.
What will your reaction be? Will you chat the person up, just smile and nod, or pretend you don’t know who they are? I would hope she would want to chat for a few minutes about her home in Watch Hill, RI--"Can we do lunch there someday Taylor?! Isn't Rhode Island just beautiful Taylor?!"
At what age do you think a person is too old to still be playing video games? I think video games are a waste of time for any age.
Do you know what a Fluffernutter is, and have you ever had one? Yes, they don't appeal to me.
Do you think that a man and a woman can be just friends? Casual friends, yes. Serious close friends, no--unless the man is gay. A gay guy is the perfect friend for a woman!
Have you ever been “just friends” with someone of the opposite sex? Casual friends, yes. I have a lot of work friends that are males. When it gets deeper, someone always seems to get the wrong message.
I should tidy more often.
I need to stop procrastinating so much
One of my best qualities is good work ethic.
One of my worst qualities is procrastination .

Today’s Questions:
You are sitting in your airline seat waiting to take off when a celebrity is seated right next to you. Who do you hope it will be? - Bill Maher. We have a lot in common.
What will your reaction be? Will you chat the person up, just smile and nod, or pretend you don’t know who they are? - Definitely chat. I could use a few laughs...
At what age do you think a person is too old to still be playing video games? - None of my business. Except for playing a few times long ago it was never a thing with me.
Do you know what a Fluffernutter is, and have you ever had one? - Never heard of it.
I just read down to post #5 and no, I haven't.
Do you think that a man and a woman can be just friends? - Yes. I consider at least one and maybe as many as 4 former work colleagues friends. I want them in my life. They are cool.
Have you ever been “just friends” with someone of the opposite sex? - See last answer. This is fairly new for me. The fact they are keeping contact with me is a good feeling.
Maybe a side note to this is all of them are a lot younger than I am. 3 of the 4 are in their late 20s.
I shouldgo out more often. I need to stopbeing so hard on myself so much.
One of my best qualities isdependability. One of my worst qualities is procrastinating. In fairness to that is I lack time.
Today’s Questions:
You are sitting in your airline seat waiting to take off when a celebrity is seated right next to you. Who do you hope it will be?
I can’t think of anyone I’d want to meet. I admire talents, but I don’t care about that sort of thing.
What will your reaction be? Will you chat the person up, just smile and nod, or pretend you don’t know who they are?
Smile and go about my business.
At what age do you think a person is too old to still be playing video games?
My brother-in-law is 47 and he’s been big time into gaming for as long as I’ve known him. He’s tested games out for companies before they were released to the public. That’s just part of who he is, what he likes and what he grew up with. He’s a functional adult with a good job. Why put an age limit on a harmless activity that someone enjoys? It’s no different than a 90-year-old who still likes to play cards or Monopoly. They’re hobbies. No shame.
Do you know what a Fluffernutter is, and have you ever had one?
I think I’ve heard the word before. It that marshmallow fluff stuff involved?
Do you think that a man and a woman can be just friends?
Of course they can.
Have you ever been “just friends” with someone of the opposite sex?
Yes.
I should ___________ more often.
I need to stop _____________ so much.
Lemmie compile some lists.
One of my best qualities is __________.
I’d let people who know me give me an idea because I’m not sure I know. Maybe I only think that certain qualities are good but I’m not self aware enough to know they’re not.
One of my worst qualities is ___________.
Yikes.
