Hi everyone and welcome to the Questions of the Day for Wednesday March 25, 2020. I am just filling in today so the Wednesday slot is still open if anyone is interested. Here we go!

I was asked to name the artists of the songs on the old Top 40 countdown with Kasey Kasem recently and I did very well. I’m kind of a trivia freak with music and entertainment so I named off all the artists except for 2 out of the 40. Trivia is a family obsession -- my dad used to say we are the world's greatest collectors of useless information.

Is there some kind of weird or unusual thing or things that you can do that have no real value but it’s fun to do? I can write in cursive backwards as fast as I can write forwards. Problem is, I can't read what I've written unless I hold it up to a mirror.

My hair has been falling out for many years but now it’s gotten to where I have to use special mediciny smelling products to stop it from falling out any further. I don’t color it anymore just for that reason. I figure white/gray hair is better than no hair.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight? Thick and slightly wavy.

Do you color your hair? I used to, for many years, but I stopped when I retired 11 years ago.

Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair? I love it. It's not gray, it's silver.

I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures? I used to get regular mani-pedis until I got a fungus infection, and I quit. That was about a year ago. I'm OK with naked nails.

Why or why not? See previous answer.

I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all? I go for a cleaning every four months, so three times a year. I had gum surgery about 25 years ago, and I never want a repeat of that experience.

How many times a day do you brush your teeth? (no judgement here, just dumb questions) Twice a day, and floss every night before bed, because of the previously-mentioned gum surgery.

When someone offers you a mint do you wonder if it is because you have bad breath? Asking for a friend. No one ever offers me a mint. I'm always the one offering other people mints.

Ladies, do you wear make-up even when you’re not going out? No, only when I'm going out.

Men, do you wear make-up at all? I don’t expect any yes answers but it was fun to ask.

That’s it for today. Sorry I had to post this so early but I’m not a morning person and chances are it would be late morning before I got around to it. So have a great Wednesday.

Thanks for the questions. Stay healthy, everyone!

Is there some kind of weird or unusual thing or things that you can do that have no real value but it’s fun to do? Since we have to be home, we are watching more TV, I’ve found I’m good at word games. Like Wheel of Fortune.


My hair has been falling out for many years but now it’s gotten to where I have to use special mediciny smelling products to stop it from falling out any further. I don’t color it anymore just for that reason. I figure white/gray hair is better than no hair.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight? Thin and straight

Do you color your hair? I lighten it.

Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair? I always wished I had thicker hair.


I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures? No

Why or why not? I can’t stand anyone touching my feet. I can do my own manicure.


I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all? I go once a year maybe longer.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight? Thinner than it used to be. Some curl to it, especially so when it rains.

Do you color your hair? I do. I bought a box of hair coloring yesterday.

Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair? I always wanted straighter hair and would jokingly blame my mother for the curls. When I was a baby she would use something called Nestles to make my hair curl. I just looked and it's still being made. Poor kids.


I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures? Don't

Why or why not? I prefer to spend my money on other things.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all? Every six months.

How many times a day do you brush your teeth? Twice
(no judgement here, just dumb questions)

When someone offers you a mint do you wonder if it is because you have bad breath? Asking for a friend. Sometimes I do wonder, because I've offered mints to people with bad breath.

Ladies, do you wear make-up even when you’re not going out? Don't & minimal even when going out.

Men, do you wear make-up at all? I don’t expect any yes answers but it was fun to ask Still laughing over wit-nit's answer.....

That’s it for today. Sorry I had to post this so early but I’m not a morning person and chances are it would be late morning before I got around to it. So have a great Wednesday Thanks, N/S!

Is there some kind of weird or unusual thing or things that you can do that have no real value but it’s fun to do? Hmmm, useless talents? I can do that thing where you form circles over your head with one hand while doing them in the opposite rotation in front of your chest.

I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Hi to all... Thanks for the QOTD, NorthSouth!

I was asked to name the artists of the songs on the old Top 40 countdown with Kasey Kasem recently and I did very well. I’m kind of a trivia freak with music and entertainment so I named off all the artists except for 2 out of the 40.
Is there some kind of weird or unusual thing or things that you can do that have no real value but it’s fun to do?
I usually excel in music trivia as well. I tend to know a lot of useless stuff. Did you know the square root of 10 is 3.16227766?


My hair has been falling out for many years but now it’s gotten to where I have to use special mediciny smelling products to stop it from falling out any further. I don’t color it anymore just for that reason. I figure white/gray hair is better than no hair.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight?
My hair is still thick.

Do you color your hair?
Nope, the gray is doing that for me.

Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair?
I would be perfectly fine with my hair if I could get rid of the two unfortunately placed cowlicks.


I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures?
Never been to a mani-pedi type place. The wife doesn't do that stuff either.



I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all?
I go every 4 - 5 months. I've had a lot of work done in my mouth over the past few years, so they want to see me more frequently than most. Yay...

How many times a day do you brush your teeth?
(no judgement here, just dumb questions)
Once and sometimes twice per day.

When someone offers you a mint do you wonder if it is because you have bad breath? Asking for a friend.
I haven't had anyone offer...

Men, do you wear make-up at all? I don’t expect any yes answers but it was fun to ask
Nope. No makeup, no jewelry, no anything!


Well, that's it for me. Have a great day, everyone!

Hi everyone and welcome to the Questions of the Day for Wednesday March 25, 2020. I am just filling in today so the Wednesday slot is still open if anyone is interested. Thanks, northsouth! Here we go!

I was asked to name the artists of the songs on the old Top 40 countdown with Kasey Kasem recently and I did very well. I’m kind of a trivia freak with music and entertainment so I named off all the artists except for 2 out of the 40.
Is there some kind of weird or unusual thing or things that you can do that have no real value but it’s fun to do? Haha! Much of what I know has no real value. Hmmm, what can I come up with for this post? I know: I can determine the species of a tree by looking at a piece of its bark. (Not all, of course, but I'm pretty good at using this means to identify trees native to the Midwest.)

My hair has been falling out for many years but now it’s gotten to where I have to use special mediciny smelling products to stop it from falling out any further. I don’t color it anymore just for that reason. I figure white/gray hair is better than no hair.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight? Fairly thin and fine, though the more grey that comes in the more thickness and body my hair has. My hair is naturally curly but not kinky unless it's really warm and humid outdoors.

Do you color your hair? Nope. Never have. I've been a natural blonde all my life, and though I have some grey now it doesn't show much. I embrace the grey, so I don't mind that it's showing more with each passing year.

Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair? Though it can get scraggly looking sometimes, I love the color of my hair and I like the curls. I used to fight the curls and try to straighten them out, until my new (many years ago) stylist told me to stop it and enjoy the free curls. He said something like, "People pay me a fortune to put curls in your hair, but you get them for free. Don's mess that up!"

I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures? I've never had either.

Why or why not? I don't like the idea of someone holding onto my hand for any length of time. I'm a bit claustrophobic and to me that would feel like confinement. I'd like to try a pedicure sometime, but just haven't been able to justify the expense.

I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all? Yes, except I suspect my April appointment will be postponed due to all that's going on these days.

How many times a day do you brush your teeth?
(no judgement here, just dumb questions) At least two; sometimes three.

When someone offers you a mint do you wonder if it is because you have bad breath? Asking for a friend. Nope.

Ladies, do you wear make-up even when you’re not going out? No. If no one is going to see me, I'll skip wearing makeup that day.

Men, do you wear make-up at all? I don’t expect any yes answers but it was fun to ask

That’s it for today. Sorry I had to post this so early but I’m not a morning person and chances are it would be late morning before I got around to it. So have a great Wednesday You did a great job! Thank you! Be safe and have a wonderful Wednesday, everyone.

Is there some kind of weird or unusual thing or things that you can do that have no real value but it’s fun to do?..............I can usually relate an older song that I hear to the year because of which type of car I was driving as my dealer demo. I can’t do this nowadays because I drive my own vehicle.


My hair has been falling out for many years but now it’s gotten to where I have to use special mediciny smelling products to stop it from falling out any further. I don’t color it anymore just for that reason. I figure white/gray hair is better than no hair.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight?...............It’s fine and is hard to style.

Do you color your hair?........Yes

Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair?...........I’d love to have really thick hair.


I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures?............Pedicures! I had one before I went to Florida. I need another but my state is in shelter in place mode. Looks like I’ll have to do my own toes.

Why or why not?........^^^^^ I always do my own nails. I have very nice natural nails. The tools that the salons use are too aggressive and damage my nails.


I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all?............I usually go once a year.

How many times a day do you brush your teeth?...........Twice a day and more if needed.
(no judgement here, just dumb questions)

When someone offers you a mint do you wonder if it is because you have bad breath? Asking for a friend. ..............I’ll admit it always make me wonder.

Ladies, do you wear make-up even when you’re not going out?........Most of the time.

Men, do you wear make-up at all? I don’t expect any yes answers but it was fun to ask

That’s it for today. Sorry I had to post this so early but I’m not a morning person and chances are it would be late morning before I got around to it. So have a great Wednesday

Probably everything that I do, but I can think of no specific example.

My hair has been falling out for many years but now it’s gotten to where I have to use special mediciny smelling products to stop it from falling out any further. I don’t color it anymore just for that reason. I figure white/gray hair is better than no hair.

Is your hair thick, thin, curly or straight?
Thin, difficult to style and use to be naturally curly when I was a kid.
Do you color your hair?
No
Are you pleased with it or do you wish you had different hair?
I want hair like the ladies in those shampoo commercials have.

I’ve only had my nails done professionally one time. I didn’t like it because they were too long and just got in the way. Pedicures on the other hand….well that’s just heavenly. This question is for men too.

Do you get regular manicures or pedicures?
No
Why or why not?
Not really interested...I do it myself, don't like the idea of someone else doing it.

I go to the dentist every 6 months like I’m supposed to but I do not enjoy it. It’s like…..pulling teeth. But I have to if I want to keep what’s left of my teeth.

Do you go to the Dentist every 6 months, once a year, even less or not at all?
Use to go regularly as a kid and young adult, haven't been in a long time now...but still have all my teeth, no toothaches,etc.
How many times a day do you brush your teeth?
(no judgement here, just dumb questions)
3 or 4 times a day...plus I usually floss daily and use fluoride rinse.
When someone offers you a mint do you wonder if it is because you have bad breath? Asking for a friend.
No one has offered me one!!! I probably would wonder.
Ladies, do you wear make-up even when you’re not going out?
