Brought to you by Berleen, the color of black coffee, which I need more of, and the number 8,299,598,330

Are you a Facebooker? Are you addicted to those stupid games that suck a person in at the drop of a hat? Would you care to share your Facebook identification link so that we may all stalk you be your friend?

Yes. Yes, though I'm seriously considering quitting them all, all of them at once. No.

If you had to be magically transformed into an animal that you loathe, which one would it be? And don't give me those "none" answers...

I don't really loathe too many animals, so I'll go with mosquitoes.

What is the strangest thing you have said to:
* get a job?
* get a date?

I have no idea how I managed to get the jobs I've gotten. I interview good and I don't lie. I have no idea. Really. Again, I don't lie in a situation like this.

What cartoon character do you find the most sexiest?

Well, duh: Jessica Rabbit.

When dog food is new with improved tasting, who tests it?

I would assume dogs. In a lab, and in focus-group studies.

What does OK actually mean?

You might want to read up here, and follow the links.

If a person owns a piece of land do they own it all the way down to the core of the earth?

No. I've always leaned more toward Crazy Horse here: "One does not sell the land people walk on." Of course, being a perfect hypocrite, I also have a mortgage on about 1/2 acre of prime suburban former farmland.

When you were in high school and were sitting in math class... when the day came to learn about 3.14, did you get hungry?

Nope. I am my father's daughter, ergo I know from pie.

Have you ever been on the radio?

I had a weekly radio show in college, and ended up managing the radio station my senior year. Woo hoo. Glory Days.

Beans, beans the magical fruit The more you eat, the more you toot The more you toot, the better you feel So let's have beans at every meal!
Why do people say that when beans are vegetables?

And what, pray tell, would you use as an appropriate rhyme for "vegetables"?

What about tv? And I don't mean physically on top of the tv either, you silly people. Same goes for the radio question.

Now, see, if I were writing this meme, I would have put this question RIGHT AFTER the radio question, because otherwise people say, "Well, what about TV?" like I just did.
I have been on TV briefly when I was marching in the Rose Parade.

Do you think Adam & Eve had belly buttons?

My college art teacher argued against it. I'm inclined to wonder, especially since I'm willing to allow that Adam and Eve are metaphors. Do metaphors have belly buttons?

If you were going to own a liquor store or a bar, what would you name it?

I'd call it 'For Sale.' No way. I deal with drunks enough at work now.

How about you own a grocery store - what's it's name?

"It's"?? Really? This makes my head hurt. More than it already did.

If you could only watch one tv show for the rest of your life and no other, what would it be? And yes, it's going to be in series form so you don't actually have to watch the same episode over and over.

60 Minutes. Lots of shows to choose from. There'd literally NEVER be a repeat.

What was the name of your 3rd grade teacher?

Mrs. Weigtmann. Wow, I really had to think about that! She was a great teacher, and beautiful too, at least according to us 9-year-olds.

Do you know how to parallel park?

Yup. But I don't do it very well.

What kinds of cereal do you have in your home right at this very moment?

Ironically, I had cereal for supper tonight, for the first time in many, many months. Or years. So, we have Honey Bunches of Oats, Kix, Granola, and something else I can't remember. I finished the corn flakes.

If you were to have a garage sale tomorrow, what is the first item you own that you would say "I'm selling THAT!"?

The extra Easter baskets, and the clothes that have shrunk in the wash in the last couple of weeks. I don't actually keep crap around the house; we have enough stuff stored for family members and posterity that keeping total junk around is just ridiculous.
