#0007 Random Qs
What languages do you speak and how hard would it be to learn them?
I speak bits of more languages than I am listing here. My parents spoke mostly English, but I've heard Spanish since birth and can communicate in it. I've learned enough Russian to get my basic needs met, and sometimes I can tell what people are saying in German or Hebrew. Technically, I do not speak Ancient Greek nor Aramaic, but I do read them. Languages are not hard unless one starts with grammar instead of just having fun.
What shows have you seen almost every episode of?
I've seen every episode of MASH, because I watched it once a week for as long as it ran. Several other shows follow the same pattern. Stargate SG1 I have on DVD, and my daughter and I wore out this set. We're going to buy another one. We have Atlantis and SGU as well. Star Trek TOS I memorized before VHS existed. Believe me; there are more and more shows I have completed...
Do your friends do surveys too?
Some.
Are you friends with the same people you knew from middle school?
That's how I came to Facebook. I was looking for my high school friends, most of whom I've known since jr. high.
What're the last five songs you downloaded?
I don't download songs. I buy hard copies.
Do you support sports teams from your state and/or town?
How is it that the 7th largest city in the US has only one professional team? I don't like basketball. Therefore, I cheer for the teams in Dallas and Houston.
Are you going to go to grad school?
Nope. Maybe I should have, but it seems rather pointless, now.
Have you ever kissed anyone who has a tattoo?
What does it matter? I don't like tattoos, but some of the people I like have them.
What’s your blood type?
The universal one.
Do people ever say your name wrong and if so, how do they say it?
If they see it, they can't say it. If I say it, they can't spell it. I've even had people misspell it while I was spelling it for them! This goes for both first and last names. If someone gets my full name right on the first try, I offer to buy him or her dinner!
Which do you like better, biographies or autobiographies?
Usually, I like biographies better.
What do you and your family do for fun?
We usually go out for ice cream or a movie or both. Sometimes, we take road trips.
Have you ever had complications at the airport?
I used to love to fly. Now, I hate it and won't do it.
Do you think that your parents give you a lot of freedom?
Before I turned 18, they were very strict.
What was your last essay topic?
The Word. I write on Biblical subjects at least weekly. Sometimes, it's daily, because people try to tell me what the Bible says, so I bring up the Greek and Aramaic to show them how they are twisting God's Words. Either they don't read what's written, or they think that English was the original language!
How many kids are in your graduating class?
I am graduating one child this year.
Which do think is classier, black clothes or white clothes?
I'm quite partial to colors.
Have you ever seen a ghost?
Yes, and it was not a “dead human”. It was a spirit being pretending to be something it was not. Devil spirits love to lie.
What did you last yell about?
Rude children, tall ones who were almost adult and should have known better.
What's your main ringtone?
The alert beep.
Do you like oatmeal?
No, I'm allergic to it.
How much sugar do you put in your coffee and/or tea?
None.
Would you rather have a normal phone or one with a QWERTY keyboard?
I'd like to dump the phone. Maybe I will.
Do you have secrets that no one knows?
Who doesn't?
Does the polish on your fingernails match the polish on your toes?
Natural, polish-free nails are easy to match.
Are any of your friends in a band?
My daughter's friends are band members. She sometimes acts as their roadie, so I know them too. I even know their parents.
Is your family open to your views?
Not on your life!
What's the worst food experience you’ve had?
Ah, there are so many to choose from! Eating out is always a challenge. I hate going to a friends house to find that they are serving breaded pork chops with gravy, eggplant, and mashed potatoes. I cannot eat any of that without horrible physical reactions that last for three days.
Would you ever go to a taping of SNL?
No. Never liked that show. I'm more of a Monty Python fan.
How many people have you kissed?
Romans 16:16
16 Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.
That's a few people...
Hypothetically, how would you feel if your current significant other left you for someone else?
I don't have one. I don't need one.
