Major Tag

  Well, ladies and gentlemen, thanks to Joel I've been tagged with one of the weirdest tags I've ever faced. 

#1. If you were peanut butter in your local grocery store, what aisle would you be on?

  As close to the celery as I can get.

#2. What is your favorite comic strip?

  Calvin & Hobbes definitely comes in first, followed closely by Fox Trot.  (Do Tintin and Asterix count as comic strips??)

#3. How many Eastern European capitals do you know without consulting an atlas?

   Um... three, possibly four.

#4. If you were a household appliance, what would you be?

  A CD player.  I love music!

#5. List your goals in order of their relevance to CheeseWhiz and/or SpongeBob:

   I'm going to have to go with what Joel said.  "N/A. Sorry! I don't know the definitions of CheeseWhiz and SpongeBob."

#6. Chocolate: milk, white, dark?

  Milk chocolate, by all means; especially if it's Greek chocolate.  I don't like chocolate very much, but Greek milk chocolate is SO good. 

#7. If you could have dinner with an important historical figure - what would you eat?

  Spaghetti and meatballs with french bread!

#8. On average, how often do you lose your keys and/or cell phone?

I've only lost my keys once, and that wasn't for very long.  I think I found them the next day.  I don't have a cell phone.

#9. Synchronized swimming - Yes or no?

  Well, it's kind of stupid(and pointless), but I guesss it's alright. 

#10. Give your best definition (without looking it up) of schoenabatist:

  Um... someone who makes shoes for plants?  lol!

#11. If you lived on a desert island, which of the following would you want with you?
A.) An oasis
B.) A 1949 Pinot Noir
C.) An original copy of The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy
D.) Potpourri

  I think I'll take A.

#12. If you didn't live on a desert island, where would you choose to have your adventurous getaway far from sanity and civilization?
A.) The Sahara
B. ) The Arctic
C.) Frog Level, NC

  Away from sanity, you say?  Then I'll go for C.  I had no idea that there even *was* such a place, but okay!  That sounds adventurous enough. 

#13. If you do live on a desert island - WHY?

  Because desert islands are "kool".  Besides, you never know if Captain Jack Sparrow might show up one afternoon! 

#14. If you were a mustard, would you be French's or Dijon?

  I can't stand mustard.  There's no way on earth that I would ever allow myself to be turned into a jar of it. 

#15. Explain why wigs went out of fashion and how this brought about the Cold War.

  Well, eventually the wigs that people wore got so tall that it got too hard for the women to go through doorways while wearing them.  They went out of fashion quickly because of that, but then people got cold!  And when people get cold, they get irritated.  Thus the Cold War came about.

#16. What is your favorite memory from the past year?

  Probably the Ryan Shupe and the Rubber Band concert that I went to back in August.  That was the most fun concert I've ever been too.   

#17. Where, to the best of your knowledge, is the Fountain of Youth?

   Again, I'm going to have to go with what Joel said. " *points to the Bible* "

#18. What toothpaste are you currently brushing with?

   Well, besides the fact that I'm not brushing my teeth right this instant, lol ....

#19. Explain the mystery of parking in driveways while driving on parkways and boxing "rings".

   I agree with what just about everyone else said.  It's all the fault of people distorting the English language. 

#20. What is the best use for celery?

  Chikkin soup!!   

#21. Demonstrate the recently-decided offical way to list "Arkansas" in a possessive tense.

   What's all this "recently-decided" stuff??

#22. Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

  What kind of question is that?   You can't find Carmen Sandiego! (Thanks a lot, Joel. You made me loose the game again.)

#23. List three reasons for or against Pachelbel's Canon in D.

1) It's classical music, therefore it is good.
2) Everyone likes it, therefore it is good.
3) I like it too, therefore it is good.

Now "TAG" three other helpless individuals with better things to do!

Alright!! Mwahaha.....  I tag Ghillies, BeatriceG, and missgardener.

I appreciated your explanation of the Cold War. You brought some interesting insights to light that I didn't understand it before. I thought it was called the Cold War because of the Sinus Epidemic. And this one kid told me it had something to do with the fact that there wasn't any hot action, we were kind of playing chicken, and a lot of the action happened furtively...or secretly, hence, "cold."
I think also if you consider the climate of Russia you might get some interesting answers. I hear its cold.
And what about if it was related to the fact that two of the nations that were once allies turned a "cold" cheek to one another, hunh, hunh? What about that?
I mean, was the microwave even invented then? And fire was probably cumbersome a lot of times, so a lot of food was probably eaten cold. And what about the invention of the freezer?
And I think it was about that time that the White Witch made it always winter, and never Christmas. And, well, thats cold.
I think there's a lot of possibilities you need to consider before you make statements like that.

I agree with Kenny. Your "wig-to-Cold-War" explanation is undeniably useful!

Yet, Kenny warms up with some interesting factoids, too. Weren't those Chronicles written in the middle of the Cold War? Which came first, or is it a chicken/egg thing?

And the game? You made ME lose it again!

Kenny - Aha!  Good observations, Kenny!  (although someone has way too much time on his hands)  Now I'm interested to see what you write when you post your answers.  *waits for Kenny to post*  Oh, and congrats on getting the first three comments, lol. 

Kate - Thanks!  You up to bat now, Kate! 

Joel - Um... I have no idea.  lol   Aaaa!  You made me loose the game again!!  Sheesh!

Kieran - lol  Is that a compliment? 

Brad - Maybe I should have tagged you for this one, Brad!

Friend! I've finally decided to get a blog. Just barely... as in. Yeah. not very long ago, but it has been born, and I will it to live. :) Pretty snazzy eh? Life is perfectly unexceptional over here...just started a new trimester and got done with half of the state tests, joy, and the weather has been going crazy. :) I love it. How is life in Callihan land? Happy days... Benk.
