I can't think of one, but I'd like to volunteer to be a photographer for the Sports Illustrated swim suit issue, or the Victoria's Secret catalog.. - I'm only kidding.

Extra Credit Question:
With reconnecting through facebook so popular
Has any of our QOTD family found out their old school is having a reunion?
Will you go ?
I don't use Facebook or any of those other websites, when we had our 30th reunion 4 years ago, I found out about it through regular mail.

How many of our QOTD family still have their old yearbooks ?
I still have the yearbook from my senior year in high school.

Just For Fun :

What is your favorite way to see eggs on your plate ?
Cooked... It's a little tough to eat raw eggs with a fork.. - I like them hard-boiled or scrambled.

Who is the one person or persons you would love to see "beat a path to your door" ?
Well, I used to wish for Ed McMahon to show up at my door with that $10 million-dollar check from Publisher's Clearing House... - Right now, and I know I sound like a broken record, but a wife would be nice.

OK lol taking a vote on changing my name to KwaK what do you think Yay or Nay ?
Karla we know what "KwaK" stands for, but others who are new might not. I'd leave your screen name the way it is... and no, I'm not gonna trade names with you..


My grandparents won that Publishers Clearing House thing years ago and we learned you dont have to subscribe to win.
I'll try to send a Victoria Secret gal out to your door today Mike, but its Sunday, so if you miss out.....
Kwak is another way of spelling 'quack'....like in duck.
Cant rep you right now but Ill get you when you least expect it!

I'm not sure if that's still a record, but I know The Who held a record for the loudest volume at a rock concert in the mid 1970s, it was measured at 122 decibels 2 feet away from center stage. Trust me, you'd go deaf real fast if you got exposed to 125 decibels of SPL (Sound Pressure Level), that is a very dangerous level.

I heard the average level at a rock concert is about 110 decibels.

I found out that, if you don't buy anything they quit sending you all the "You may already be a winner" stuff in the mail. That's what that last letter I got said. I never ordered anything so they were dropping me from their mailing lists. Now if I could get 15 or 20 others to take me off their mailing lists! lol
