Sure, to some without question; to others in emergencies only.
Do you prefer to start your holiday shopping before or after Thanksgiving?
Sharni
11-23-2003, 10:52 PM
Neither....we dont do Thanksgiving
If you had a million dollars to spend...What would you buy?
rockintime
11-23-2003, 11:04 PM
lol...that's right no Pilgrims, no Indians, and I imagine to native turkeys.
First purchase, a new home.
Are you a risk-taker?
BlondeCurlGirl
11-23-2003, 11:28 PM
There are certain areas of my life where I will gladly take a risk, then others where I hesitate to do so.
What was your favorite subject in school, and why? (and you can't say recess, PE, or lunch either!)
PantyFanatic
11-24-2003, 03:57 AM
Would you believe Science? From the 3rd grade on.:o
(I bet you can sure as hell tell it wasn't English or Spelling.) LMAO
How important are trees to you personally?
dicksbro
11-24-2003, 06:11 AM
We have a couple of trees in our yard that were planted by our kids; another that was taken from an offshoot to one my wife's folks had in their yard. Gives those three a lot of personal value. Plus, except for the fall raking, I just love 'em.
How's your Christmas shopping doing?
WildIrish
11-24-2003, 12:30 PM
I'm doing ok...I received two presents already. As for purchasing for others? Well, um...err, soon. Hopefully.
When shopping for others, are you practical or extravagant?
celticangel
11-24-2003, 12:32 PM
just dandy!!!!!!!!~~~just got to wrap it all up now!!!!
Do you have a traditional Christmas or do you cellebrate in a different way?
Sharni
11-24-2003, 01:27 PM
Not traditional as a rule....we tend to have a BBQ with family & friends....but this year its just Bilbo..me...& the ferals...so will be a quiet one..
Will you celebrate with family and friends or alone this year?
Steph
11-24-2003, 02:36 PM
It's all up in the air this year. Tyler might be here or at his parent's. We might be able to go to his parent's together . . . not sure yet.
What's your favourite Christmas tradition?
WildIrish
11-24-2003, 02:42 PM
Getting socks and underwear, though the day we all spend decorating the house and listening to Christmas music is nice too.
Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve?
dicksbro
11-24-2003, 02:57 PM
Used to be we opened some on Christmas eve at my wife's folks house, and my folks house on Christmas day. Now, it's usually Christmas morning.
We will be going to my daughters on Thanksgiving and since the roads are sometimes "iffy" in December, we'll give them their gifts there. That'll be for our daughter's in Indianapolis and Cincinnati, respectively.
Are you looking forward to Christmas this year?
musicman
11-24-2003, 10:25 PM
somewhat - I love the family aspect of it but hate the corresponding commercialism that leads up to it
does anyone celebrate anything other than christmas?
Sharni
11-24-2003, 10:42 PM
Birthdays, Anniversaries, House warmings, Births, Engagements, Weddings, Easter, and many more...any excuse for a party really *LOL*...we Aussies are good at that
Do you have other siblings...if so how many?
musicman
11-24-2003, 10:50 PM
1 - younger sister....

Sugarsprinkles
11-24-2003, 11:19 PM

dm383

Nope.......... not YET anyway! :)
Have you often/ever been late to work because of posting @ Pixies?
dicksbro
11-25-2003, 05:32 AM
No, but I've cut it close a couple of times. (I blame it on taking too long to get ready. :D)
Have you ever wished more people were logged in and you could be interacting with all of them?
musicman
11-25-2003, 08:55 AM
yes.
have you ever masturbated at work looking at pixies pics?
SuccubusKitty
11-25-2003, 11:25 AM
nope....don't have a job to do that at, but I have masturbated to pixies numerous times at home :)
What is the least interesting thing you can think of to do with your time?
IAKaraokeGirl
11-25-2003, 02:13 PM
File. I hate it with a passion--which is bad when it is part of your job description. Two summers ago I went with a group to do mission work in Chicago for the first time. The first day they sent my four-person work group to a homeless shelter for women and children...and we spent the entire day filing. I kept thinking, "I gave up a vacation day for this." :rolleyes:
Do you order things online?
Sharni
11-25-2003, 06:49 PM
I have yes

What is your favorite hobby?
Sharni

Fishing....but i haven't managed to do any for ages and ages
Do you agree will whale fishing bans?
dicksbro
11-25-2003, 08:51 PM
From all I know about the state of whale populations it sounds only lolgical to ban taking them. They've got enough stress in their lives with people making it worse.
Do you like to get up early or stay of late?
Sharni
11-25-2003, 09:11 PM
Both actually....but more so the get up early
Are you a person who has to watch what they eat?
IAKaraokeGirl
11-25-2003, 09:13 PM
Yes, as I was diagnosed about a year ago with Type II diabetes after having the insulin-dependent during my last two pregnancies.
Are you a person who depends on others?
Sharni
11-25-2003, 09:17 PM
Nope
Do you prefer to speak with people(strangers) by phone or in person?
IAKaraokeGirl

Phone. I am shy (yes, really) and anything I can do to avoid face-to-face meetings helps.
Do you like your parents?
Sharni
11-25-2003, 09:22 PM
I love my parents
Do you keep a daily diary every year?
BlondeCurlGirl
11-25-2003, 11:08 PM
I've only done diaries for school when I've HAD to. I like to write but don't have time on a daily basis.
What kind of treats do you make and/or enjoy on Christmas or another big holiday you celebrate?

Are you working over the Holidays?
kleclere
11-26-2003, 04:14 PM
Does look like it yet. I don't normally work holidays.
Are you going someplace other then your home for Thanksgiving?
IAKaraokeGirl
11-26-2003, 04:16 PM
I went to my family's in Kentucky last weekend, and I will be eating dinner tomorrow at the parents of a friend before having company at my house.
Is there something you really, really dread?
kleclere

Which singer is your least favorite? past or present
IAKaraokeGirl
11-26-2003, 05:02 PM
I have a real problem with Stevie Nicks, although I do like some Fleetwood Mac songs and even a song or two of hers. I can't explain it--but something about her sets my teeth on edge. I'm not sure Rod Stewart can sing, either, although there are a couple of *his* songs that I enjoy. Go figure.
Do you sleep on your side, your stomach, or your back?
PantyFanatic
11-26-2003, 05:23 PM
Side mostly. When I'm really tired I'll fall asleep on my back but wake up on my side.:confused: NEVER on my stomach.:mad:
How many times, or do you wake up or stir during the night that you can remember?
IAKaraokeGirl
11-26-2003, 05:27 PM
I have a sleep disorder...I usually remember about 4-5 times, although they've documented that I have 30 "arousals" (no kidding, medical terminology) every hour. It just means that my sleep is disrupted, whether I "wake up" or not.
What do you do in your quiet time?
celticangel
11-26-2003, 06:18 PM
curl up on the couch with a cup of hot sweet tea and watch telly!!!!!!
what makes you smile?
IAKaraokeGirl
11-26-2003, 06:22 PM

What could you do without?
musicman
11-26-2003, 10:53 PM
my bills of course :D

Payton Crantor

What do you like to do in your spare time?

Do you have a large garden?
Steph
11-27-2003, 10:11 AM
It's a fair sized garden for the city.

What's your favorite kind of outfit to wear around the house?
dicksbro
11-27-2003, 10:28 PM
Shorts and a t-shirt.
PantyFanatic
11-27-2003, 11:51 PM
Sorry DB.:( Im trying mental telepathy as hard as I can, but Im not getting the question.
WAIT!:) I think Im getting something:D
. YES. I really do love it when a lady shows me her PANTIES. I DO feel as though she is presenting me with her most intimate self and presenting it to me in an adornment that is reflective of the treasure it holds. Of our five senses, only taste and touch can be given willing with intent. This shearing is the promise and surrender of the greatest prize.
That was your intended question, right?:confused:
What do you consider the most beneficial development to mankind?
Steph
11-28-2003, 12:21 AM
Geez, that's a tough one - birth control?
What do you think the biggest menace to society is? (Besides PF)
PantyFanatic
11-28-2003, 12:45 AM
NON birth control!
What is the smallest, complete tangible object you own?
dicksbro
11-28-2003, 05:10 AM
A cuff link or a dime maybe. (Actually we have a straight pin, but not sure that exactly is something I think of as owning (me personally.)
(PF, I'm really impressed that you had my question pegged and so quickly, too. :))
Have you put up a Christmas tree, yet?
Sharni
11-28-2003, 05:18 AM
Nope...hoping to get to it this weekend
Do you decorate the outside of your house?
dicksbro
11-28-2003, 05:40 AM
Yes. Not major decorations, but lights on the bushes and around our post light. Just adds a bit of cheery color.
Do you open gifts on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
Sharni
11-28-2003, 05:56 AM
When i was a kid it was after luch we opened our pressies.....now we open them when everyone in the house is awake
What would be your ultimate Xmas Present?
dicksbro
11-28-2003, 06:00 AM
Mine would be that people would put away their hatreds and just live in peace.
(Of course a winning lottery ticket would be nice. :D)
What do you enjoy most about the Christmas season?
musicman

my bed actually, I have to make it BEFORE I get in it and it has to be wrinkle free...drives my hubby nuts
How much food do (did- for those who had it earlier in the year) you have leftover from Thanksgiving?

Doesn't Lamborghini have a great logo?
Sharni
11-29-2003, 07:09 AM
Yeppers......i prefer the Countach myself :D
If you could holiday anywhere in the world...where would you go?
dicksbro
11-29-2003, 07:12 AM

dicksbro
11-29-2003, 07:40 AM
No, just Christmas, although we remember friends of other religious persuasions with cards or well wishes.
Do you decorate the outside of your home?
musicman
11-29-2003, 07:41 AM

dicksbro
11-29-2003, 07:48 AM
Yeah. Not real fancy, but lights on the bushes and on our post light.
Do you like the holiday rush or do you prefer a more relaxed preparation?
Sharni
11-29-2003, 07:55 AM
Relaxed
Have you completed your Xmas shopping yet?
dicksbro
11-29-2003, 07:58 AM
Almost. Maybe just a few stocking stuffers left to go.
I love hearing Christmas music.
Sharni
11-29-2003, 08:13 AM
Mostly
What pets do you own?
dicksbro
11-29-2003, 10:27 AM
Our son has a kitten (pretty well grown now). But, we think of it as his rather than ours since he totally takes care of it.
Do you prefer pancakes or waffles?
PantyFanatic
11-29-2003, 10:58 AM
Flap Jacks;)
Do you prefer grapefruit or orange juice?
(and how in the hell did it get that name? What is common between grapes and grapefruit:confused: )? lol
dicksbro
11-29-2003, 03:17 PM
Question 1. Orange juice; 2. Because it's made from oranges. :D :D; 3. Five letters.
And you thought I wouldn't know the answer. :D :D
PantyFanatic
11-29-2003, 03:28 PM
Very good! :D
You just don't know what your next question is. ;) lol
dicksbro
11-29-2003, 06:54 PM
If only I'd used a question mark instead of a period ... rats. :mad:
What is the best part of this weekend?
Steph
11-30-2003, 11:53 AM
Catching up the newspapers and relaxing.
What do you like to do to relax?
rockintime
11-30-2003, 02:15 PM
Play games, read, watch a movie, go to the beach...although I often like to do a couple of these at the same time
Have you gone to a movie theater with stadium-style seating, and if so, would you ever go to a regular type movie theater again?
dicksbro
11-30-2003, 03:00 PM
I have, I would, but I'd rather not. :D Love the stadium style seating.
Would you ever order a hamburger at a nice restaurant?
musicman
11-30-2003, 03:05 PM
if it's the only thing I feel like eating - sure why not?
would you ever buy a car you hated because it was all you could afford?
dicksbro
11-30-2003, 03:12 PM
I might if that were the case and it seemed to run okay.
Would you ever go to a friends wedding in bluejeans and a sweatshirt?
sillyme
11-30-2003, 03:51 PM
Only if were a VERY casual wedding.
Do you give money to panhandlers?
dicksbro
11-30-2003, 05:34 PM
I have, but not usually.
Have you ever bought someone a dinner because they were short on cash?
musicman
11-30-2003, 07:29 PM
yes
have you?
dicksbro
11-30-2003, 10:11 PM
Sure did. A co-worker.
Have you ever been stung by a bee or wasp?
rockintime
11-30-2003, 11:52 PM
stung by both often as a kid...been a long time now since I was stung...does that mean I'm getting faster at running away as I get older?
Do you feel conditions in the world are improving and why do you feel as you do?
dicksbro
12-01-2003, 04:25 AM
Boy, that's a tough one. Some things are improving, in fields such as medicine and astronomy. And food production in, at least the western world, is staying above population growth. Yet, in other areas, things seem worse. Terrorism is probably at it's worst ever, in part because it's not localized anymore, but widespread (global). And while nuclear war is maybe not likely, the risk of a "dirty bomb" or "rogue state" use is probably at it's highest. I guess the way I'd sum up my feelings is that while I'm glad I'm alive ... not sure I'd want to start over again. Hows that for a short answer to a big question?
Would you be inclined to visit any middle eastern country right now if you were given a free ticket?
rockintime
12-01-2003, 04:34 AM
Great answer, DB.
Yes definitely...would love to return to Oman, Jordan, Yemen, UAE, Bahrain...but the free ticket wouldn't entice me back to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar...and I'll also wait awhile on Iraq and Iran.
If you could live in any place (OTHER THAN where you presently live), where would it be?
dicksbro
12-01-2003, 04:54 AM
Probably Colorado. Never lived there but just love that state. Truly beautiful. (Although I can think of dozens of other places I'd love as well.)
What was the most special time you can remember having with your so/spouse?
Steph
12-01-2003, 10:46 AM
So many! When he left for school, we knew we'd be apart until I could get my sh*t together to move down here. We had a really nice weekend together before he left.
Have you and your S/O ever broken up?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-01-2003, 02:20 PM
We came close, once or twice, but after doing some talking realized it was a case of miscommunications and misunderstandings, and that neither one of us really even wanted to consider it.
What is your favorite time of day?
dicksbro
12-01-2003, 03:28 PM
Mornings. I'm definitely a morning person. I tend to get up early and call it a night early also ... with some exceptions, of course. :)
What secret little things do you do to help your spouse unwind and relax?
SuccubusKitty

SuccubusKitty

What is your favorite book genre?
skyler_m
12-01-2003, 05:01 PM

Are you already tired of the holidays?
freesolutions
12-01-2003, 11:16 PM
Tired of them ........ NO WAY ....... I love this time of year!!!
Why are you tired of them already?
denny
12-01-2003, 11:23 PM
Airplane trips to the opposite coast! Very tiring, fun too, but tiring.
Does anyone miss family at the holidays and get blue?
denny
12-01-2003, 11:26 PM
What's up PF?
dicksbro
12-02-2003, 04:39 AM
I do miss family members who don't live close by, but I'm not sure I get blue over that. Only if I had to be away from my wife during the holidays. That'd make me sad.
Ever get the urge to have your car re-painted?
skyler_m
12-02-2003, 09:02 AM
Yes. I bought a 1971 Mini Cooper this summer. It has a fairly new paint job that looks good, but there are a few well hidden spots of rust.... I really want to get it all stripped down and redone...
Ever make an outrageous spontaneous purchase? (See above paragraph for mine)
Steph
12-02-2003, 11:41 AM
Outrageous - no . . . I did blow $80 on French lessons in cassette form and they're at my mother's house. I want them!
What do you consider strange about your family?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-02-2003, 11:44 AM
My mother.
Just kidding.
I thought for years that I was adopted. Seriously. My mom and dad both had brown hair and brown eyes, as did my slightly younger sister. Needless to say, I was *much* relieved when I was almost twelve and my baby brother was born--with my blonde hair and blue eyes.
How far will you travel this holiday season?

What's the oddest Christmas present you've ever received?
(And a big LOL to you, PF). ;)
Steph
12-02-2003, 12:41 PM
Oddest, cheapest? My ex-mother-in-law was rich and gave me a candle in the shape of a poinsettia :rollseyes: Then again, she gave my ex a shaving kit two years in a row.
How long does it take you to get ready for work?
Sharni
12-02-2003, 01:22 PM
10-20 min...depending if i slept in or not *LOL*
How long does it take you to get to work?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-02-2003, 01:30 PM
:D
Four days out of the week, it's approximately 15 steps between bed and desk.
The other day, it's between an hour and a half and an hour and 45 minutes.
Do you like your job?
Sharni
12-02-2003, 01:41 PM

My legs.
Favorite body part of the opposite sex?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-02-2003, 02:49 PM
His eyes, followed by his smile...but I'm really just in total awe of his whole body.
Oops! Sorry--was lost in fantasy for a minute. ;)
Do you procrastinate?
skyler_m
12-02-2003, 02:51 PM
LOL. Well, I'm "working" right now... I'd have to say yes.
Do you work better with the radio on in the background?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-02-2003, 03:05 PM
Yes, usually. At home, though, if I'm alone (i.e., no kids) I usually keep it quiet. It's nice not having Cartoon Network screaming in my ear. :)
Do you like shopping at the mall?
skyler_m
12-02-2003, 03:07 PM
Honestly, sometimes I do. Would rather be shopping at Home Depot, though. LOL
What's your favorite indulgence when you go out shopping?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-02-2003, 03:15 PM
Buying things for people I love. No kidding.
Do you have a cell phone, and do you like it?
skyler_m
12-02-2003, 03:19 PM
I have a cell phone on me 24 hours a day... It can be good at times (when my wife and daughter call when I'm on the road) and bad others (when work calls while I'm home).
Do you ever miss the "simpler times" before technology?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-02-2003, 03:22 PM
Sometimes I can hardly remember that. I often think that my children might be short-changed because of technology when I think about all the fun my sister and I had growing up, interacting with other kids our age, playing outside, etc., but, without technology, I wouldn't be able to do what I do for a living. I also have someone I try to keep in touch with very frequently, and I know I'd be missing a lot without computers, cell phones, etc.
How do you choose where to eat when out and about?
dicksbro
12-02-2003, 03:25 PM
I think we've got about a half doze "favorites" that we usually pick from, but then ever few months we'll pick another place we've never or seldom been to. That's fun. Try to get out at least once a month ... usually twice.
(The short answer is she tells me ... :D :D ... just teasing.)
Got your tree up yet for Christmas? In any case, when do you set it up and when do you take it down?

12-02-2003, 04:05 PM
Boy howdy do we celebrate Christmas!
From tree tagging, cutting and decorating ceremonial pictures to town lighting and caroling gatherings. After all, it's the hap, happiest season of all!
Do you spend too much money on presents?
skyler_m
12-02-2003, 04:12 PM
Not really. I tend to make a number of gifts that I give out (I do wood working and wood carving). We've also been doing more "family gifts" which are better in my mind. For my sister's family, instead of buying gifts for 5 individuals, we got them a night at a hotel/indoor waterpark.
What's the best gift you've gotten?
WildIrish
12-02-2003, 04:14 PM
My young cousin cut a small piece of birch tree and used his woodburning kit to burn a heart with my wife and I's name into it, like a couple of teenagers would carve their names into a tree trunk. I love that gift and will keep it forever.
What was your favorite gift and why?
SuccubusKitty

CunningLinguist

No, but I used to and I am slipping back into drinking too much soda.
Do you call it soda, pop or coke?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-03-2003, 11:13 AM
For the first 30 years of my life it was Coke, no matter what kind it was. Coming to Iowa, though, and having small children, I realize I'm starting to slip into the "pop" mode.
Do you blow dry your hair?
Steph
12-03-2003, 11:37 AM
I will definitely do so today since it's so cold. It does make your hair look nicer, too.
Do you wear make-up every day? (If you're male - do you wear aftershave/cologne every day?)
IAKaraokeGirl
12-03-2003, 12:05 PM
Unless I'm really having a bad work day and don't get my shower until late, yes.

Have you ever done something you knew was dangerous but didn't care?

Sure, it keeps life exciting.
Have you ever done anything stupid, ignoring the possible consequences?
IAKaraokeGirl
12-03-2003, 02:46 PM
Yes, did the other night. Sometimes anger gets in the way of rationalization.
Did you ever play hookey from high school, and what did you do instead?
WildIrish
12-03-2003, 03:37 PM
Not until senior year, and it was to go to the beach.
Please share your memory of a favorite family vacation with us.
IAKaraokeGirl
12-03-2003, 04:28 PM
Well, not so sure it's a "family" vacation, but when I was 7-1/2 months pregnant with my first, my husband and I took a little over four days and headed out from southern California, through Zion National Park to the north rim of the Grand Canyon, around the huge thing to the south rim, then through Prescott, AZ and Needles back home. It was a whirlwind, crazy trip and, by the way, have you ever tried to find potties in the desert for a pregnant woman while praying she doesn't go into labor 100 miles from a hospital? :D
What gesture by your SO touches you the most?
kleclere

My dog :) When I first met him, he was 10 months old and had NO training. His original owner was an idiot. This 70 lb. gangly "teenaged" dog would run away if you called him. He's now nine years old and is the sweetest dog in the universe.

When you think of home, what do you think of?
WildIrish
12-05-2003, 04:56 PM
All the things I took for granted growing up. Fresh baked goodies still warm when I got off the school bus, never running out of milk, running off for a care-free day with friends. It's just different now. I don't wanna be a grown up anymore! This sucks! Though I get to see a lot more boobies now!

dicksbro
12-06-2003, 02:07 PM
LOL ... yes. Up in Michigan one summer several years ago. We went to a State Park where they had a beach by a lake. It was early on a weekday and no one was around and we had a good view of the road leading to the beach. So we stripped down and played in the water before retiring to some secluded bushes. :D
It was fun!!!
Have you ever stood nude at a hotel window?
LMAO....I'm gonna have to try that one some time DB!
Actually, yes I have....In Vegas, MGM Grand...showed my bits and pieces to all of Las Vegas Blvd..not like anyone could see from as high up as my room was...LOL
