1. What should Devon do for fun during his last 2 weeks of vacation?
A: Bake dragon bread, tinker with cars, photography, play video games, pamper Emma.
2. How do you stay warm on a cold fall day?
A: Build a fire in the wood stove…it’s working well today!
3. How do you think Fifi will place in her costume contest?
A: If she doesn’t win, it’s definitely rigged…although we’re all still looking forward to the first pix.
4. Best movie you’ve seen in the last year?
A: I haven’t seen many (any?) really good ones…none that make my all-time top 10 list anyway… Favorite movie was probably Elizabethtown, which I wasn’t expecting to like. Cameron Crowe always picks some good music for his soundtracks.
5. Do you have an avatar on message boards? What is it of?
A: No. That would be creepy for someone like me…
6. You’re alone and have with a flat tire. What do you do?
A: Change it….with one eye always on the oncoming traffic. If it’s on a busy highway, I move away from the car and call the roadside assistance number that I have on both cars.
7. Why are Victoria’s Secret bras so darned expensive?
A: That’s her secret…..
8. What’s the most expensive thing that you’ve ever broken?
A: Probably a set of 4 wine/water glasses at a very expensive restaurant in Positano, Italy. When I sat down at the pathetically undersized table, my knees bumped into the top of the table and sent everything flying. The glasses were Riedel or some other kind of expensive crystal…the usual $50/glass kind.
9. Do you play the lottery?
A: About once or twice a year, when a jackpot gets above $200M and the odds become somewhat worth it.
10. If so, what’s the most you’ve ever won?
A: I seem to remember winning $100 once, but that was on a random scratch ticket. The most I ever won by playing actual numbers in a lottery was a free ticket.
1. What should Devon do for fun during his last 2 weeks of vacation?
Get all the stuff on his list done that he hasn’t gotten too yet. Sleep in. Code. Bake bread. Eat the bread.
2. How do you stay warm on a cold fall day?
Fire in the woodstove, and snuggling.
3. How do you think Fifi will place in her costume contest?
I’m hopeful, although I’ll admit I have fears about the simplicity of the costume when up against dogs wearing 10 piece outfits.
4. Best movie you’ve seen in the last year?
Brick.
5. Do you have an avatar on message boards? What is it of?
Nope. The only boards I frequent are tech ones, and avatars aren’t too prevalent there.
6. You’re alone and have with a flat tire. What do you do?
Replace it with the spare. I have road flares to warn on-coming traffic. I can change a tire in less time than it takes for AAA to take me off hold.
7. Why are Victoria’s Secret bras so darned expensive?
They have magical powers that aren’t cheap to create.
8. What’s the most expensive thing that you’ve ever broken?
Hm. I guess when I banged up my car forever ago. I paid for the whole repairs out of pocket to avoid jacking up my premium, but the guy who I collided with, who had no damage at all, who I’d asked not to report it, did, and so my premiums went up, but they wouldn’t pay for the repairs of course.
9. Do you play the lottery?
Nope. Too much of a logical math guy for that I think.
10. If so, what’s the most you’ve ever won?
N/A
1. What should Devon do for fun during his last 2 weeks of vacation?
Continue coding so he can quit his job entirely, sell his idea to Disney, become fabulously wealthy, and support all of us so we can all quit our jobs.
2. How do you stay warm on a cold fall day?
I make Daisy lie on my feet
3. How do you think Fifi will place in her costume contest?
First, of course.
4. Best movie you’ve seen in the last year?
Hmm, I can’t remember which ones I’ve seen but I ended up liking Hotel Rwanda more than I thought I would
5. Do you have an avatar on message boards? What is it of?
I don’t think so?
6. You’re alone and have with a flat tire. What do you do?
Call my husband and blame him for it, then call roadside assistance
7. Why are Victoria’s Secret bras so darned expensive?
1. quality of construction 2. quality of execution 3. supply and demand 4. cost of hiring supermodels to promote them
8. What’s the most expensive thing that you’ve ever broken?
our car when i put regular gas in it instead of diesel (or was it the other way around?)
9. Do you play the lottery?
occasionally, when i get fed up with my job
10. If so, what’s the most you’ve ever won?
not much – maybe $25?
1. What should Devon do for fun during his last 2 weeks of vacation?
Take Fifi to her costume contest, carve jack-o-lanterns, sleep alot, finish coding that thing that I’m not quite sure what it does.
2. How do you stay warm on a cold fall day?
Drink hot cider, snuggle down under a blanket and in front of a fire that Devon makes in the wood stove.
3. How do you think Fifi will place in her costume contest?
I hope first. But like devon mentioned, I’m a little weary of the hand sewn dog costumes decorated with fiber optic lighting and swarovski crystals. If she doesnt get the “crowd favorite – honorable mention” prize, we’ll know that the contest was rigged.
4. Best movie you’ve seen in the last year?
Hmm… Domino? Lucky number Slevin was pretty good as well.
5. Do you have an avatar on message boards? What is it of?
I do, Its a strangely angled shot of the top of my head and my nose… from the same time when the photo at the top of this blog was taken. On iguana message boards I use a photo of Fifi sitting on my head.
6. You’re alone and have with a flat tire. What do you do?
I’m not sure. If it was downtown I’d probably try AAA. If I was in, say, East nowhere – Monroe, WA, I’d probably call Devon and have him walk me through the steps.
7. Why are Victoria’s Secret bras so darned expensive?
Because they are communist bastards.
8. What’s the most expensive thing that you’ve ever broken?
Probably all of Devon’s wine glasses, over a period of years? My brother would say that it was my fault that our jointly driven mini-van died, but HE was driving it when it finally broke down. Also maybe various computers, but they probably broke because they were just old.
9. Do you play the lottery?
Once in a Long while I buy scratch tickets… Like once every 2 years maybe…. I used to play the work pool lottery when I worked at the book store, but i stopped when we won like $5 and the lady in charge refused to give everyone back their 50 cents that they had won.
10. If so, what’s the most you’ve ever won?
Maybe $5?
