I'm sure some "theys" do. I never got anything like that because I talked too much.

Did you ever have to write "I am aware of the classroom rules and I chose not to follow them and therefore must suffer the consequences." 500 times?

No, but I did have to do that for "I will not talk during class" a few times.
I never learned my lesson though and the punishments got interesting in middle school: once some friends and I got put behind room dividers because we talked too much (to seperate us from the rest of the class).
I guess they assumed we would eventually want to rejoin but it didn't work for two of us so they called our parents after a couple of days.

What's the last big house/condo/apartment expenditure you've had?
(Just wrote a $2,900.00 check to the plumber for a grand total of $3,300 :x )

When I was 4, my mom was the cheerleading coach at the local Catholic school. I was the "mascot" and when they did their "welcome cheer," I'd come out at the end, do a somersault and yell "St. Augustine's!"

Sorry it's not a sexy story.


Does it bug you when people use the word "sexy" to describe everyday objects -- e.g., a "sexy font" or a "sexy new marketing campaign?"

Yeah. That and using hot for everything.
I bet your new logo is sexy AND hot!

Edit: I like your new avatar; it's sexy and hot too!

Can you recommend a good summer read?

I recently read The Plot Against America and liked it a lot.

Was Duck Hunt the greatest form of entertainment ever devised?

Are you one of those people who changes cars every couple of years, or do you tend to keep them forever?

Car 1: 1990-1996
Car 2: 1996-2000
Car 3: 2000-2005
Car 4: 2005-forever

Ever had a feature on a car (or home or whatever) that seemed really cool at the time but became TOTALLY outdated? e.g., 8-track?

Now that gas has risen/is on the rise... the whole SUV aspect to my cherokee is kinda starting to seem outdated.

Do you remember the first time you purchased bottle water?

Not really, but it might have been in Mexico -- ??? I know I thought it was ridiculous unless absolutely necessary.

Do you know any line dances?

No. I don't. Unless the cotten-eyed joe counts. I think I could pull that one out.

Kids and wife all gone. I have the house to myself tonight. What should I do?
