Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith

1) Moe, Larry, Curly, Curly-Joe or Shemp?

I like either set of stooges.  I like to watch them (I have a small collection) but I find that after the 3rd or 4th "bit" my funny-bone grows jaded, and they are not so funny as all that.  So, I put my discs away for a time.

2) Laurel or Hardy?
Whichever one was not so dumb-- I always confuse which is which.  The fat one, if that helps. ;D

3) Would you be an apostle if the situation arose?

If it does not require a belief in a supernatural, then, yes. 

You could say I am an 'apostle' of science and the scientific method.  I try where I am able, to help people understand that science is NOT 'anti-god' and it is NOT 'anti-religion'.  It's only about finding out the facts. 

"Just the facts, ma'am."

1. Saturday morning cartoons or Evening News?

2. Read the book first, or see the movie first?

3. Go out to eat or stay at home & cook something special--which is more of a "treat"?

Sometimes, the real journey can only be taken by making a mistake.

my webpage-- alas, Cox deleted it--dead link... oh well ::)

1. Saturday morning cartoons or Evening News?

Cartoons win. I am sick of watching the news, it's the same every day. I prefer reading them in the newspaper the other day.

2. Read the book first, or see the movie first?

Definitelly readi the book first. It can even happen that I don't want to see the movie afterwards (depends mostly on how much I liked the book and on the reviews of the movie, for example I am not going to watch Eragon)

3. Go out to eat or stay at home & cook something special--which is more of a "treat"?

Depends on my current financial situation and if I have to share the food with someone. If I have to go with someone, I'll go out (I'm no good of a cook), if it's for me only, I'll do some spaghetti and stay at home. :) (I wouldn't dare offering my cooking to anyone else, especially if I want to remain friend or in any other realtionship with that person; although it could be the ultimate test - if the person chooses to remain by my side despite of food poisoning, that person is a keeper) ;D

1. Tangerine or orange?

2. What concert/festival/live performance you ever attended do you consider being the best you've ever been to?

1. Tangerine or orange?

Tangerine, to be specific, Clementine.

I don't digest fiber well, so the "finer" fibered fruit is better for me. Tastewise, I love all of the tangerine/orange group, but detest grapefruit and lemon.

2. What concert/festival/live performance you ever attended do you consider being the best you've ever been to?

Toss up: Arlo Guthrie or Peter, Paul and Mary.

If I could have actually HEARD anything, the Beatles on their first US tour would have been included, but mostly what you heard was screaming.

3. If you would have to write one of those seek-a-relationship ads, would you lie about yourself?

Oh, HELL no. Who do people think they're fooling? Nobody, obviously, when 40-ish is code for 58, or "Clark Gable look-alike" means what he looks like now that he's been dead a few decades.

My favorite is "independently wealthy" when used by some guy who inherited a large home from his Mommy and hasn't changed a tiny bit of it since 1972, and is still driving her Lincoln Town Car from the same era.

If I tell you i'm a 25 year old blue eyed blond with a a face and figure like Angelina Jolie and i'm really a 45 year old grey haired grey eyed woman with a figure like Alfred Hitchcock, you'll figure it out pretty quickly.

====================

1) If you had cancer, and a 3 in 10 chance of chemotherapy working, would you take that chance?

2) What is your earliest memory of reading?

3) Favorite kind of chocolate? (Milk, dark, bittersweet, with nuts, with fruit, with weird stuff in, white, as cake, pie, ice cream? None at all?)

1) If you had cancer, and a 3 in 10 chance of chemotherapy working, would you take that chance?

If I had cancer, I'd probably do anything to cure me, even if the chances are one to one million, I'd try it (everyone knows that if there's one to one million chance, it can't not work, right?)

2) What is your earliest memory of reading?

I remember in first grade, we were reading some kind of a story of a bee or something, it was actually speed reading, who will read the most in one minute aloud, or something similiar. I don't remember the story much anymore, but I do remember winning by a whole paragraph. :)

3) Favorite kind of chocolate? (Milk, dark, bittersweet, with nuts, with fruit, with weird stuff in, white, as cake, pie, ice cream? None at all?)

Any chocolate. But mostly without all the things around like nuts, fruit etc. Mostly dark or milk...

1. Do you prefer using a pen or a pencil?
Situation-dependent. Mostly I use a very thin (soft) pen. A fountain-pen is used extremly rarely.

2. 80s or 90s?
Since the world is going steadily downhill, I should guess the 80ies.

3. What would you chose as a last meal?
A sedative? I'd probably ask for proposals and then make a choice

1. What music would you prefer to be played at your funeral?

2. What kind of funeral would you wish to have?

3. Who will pay for it?
Knurrhähne sind eßbar aber empfehlen würde ich das nicht unbedingt.
The aspitriglos is edible though I do not actually recommend it.

goat starer

1. What music would you prefer to be played at your funeral?

the Internationale and the Red Flag

2. What kind of funeral would you wish to have?

I imagine that people will flock from all over the world to pay their respects to the peoples Goat. There will be much weeping and strident speeches and the whole thing will end up with the storming of the winter palace.

3. Who will pay for it?

the capitalist pig dogs will pay in blood!

1) do you find it hard to avoid recting to trolls?

Nope. But it's more fun to react.


2) why is an internet community important to you?

You're all that's left to me since my imaginary friend ran away.


3) name your worst act of piracy.

I copied every Floyd record to cassette C90 in the 70s. Bought them all several times over since though.

Also wrote one of the first machine code programs on the BBC Model B for copying the add-on prom packs and saving them to tape (but don't tell anyone).

Kiyoodle the Gambrinous

1) What is the weirdest thing you have eaten, ie snake, insects etc?

I don't have much opportunities on eating weird things. Does an earthworm count (I think I was four at the time. I'm pretty sure it tasted like chicken)

2) Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin?

Depends on the mood. But I think the Floyds win for me.

3) Scotch or Bourbon?

Double Scotch. (pure, without anything, without ice, without soda and most of all without coke)

2. Your favourite TV-show/sitcom/series...?

Ever, I Claudius/Fawlty Towers
Current Dr Who/Desperate Housewives

Dance music.

Online or real shopping?

Sex, drugs or rock and roll?

An afternoon at the museum or beach?
The angels have the phone box




goat starer

Online or real shopping?

look at the things in real shops and then buy them online

Sex, drugs or rock and roll?

can i have some of these sex drugs of which you speak? But seriously probably drugs. If I cant have one of the other two I need something that will take my mind off it!

An afternoon at the museum or beach?

depends on the state of the waves. Nice breaking 6ft waves and i will be on the beach. dead calm and show me the mummies!

1) baked beans or mushy peas?

Probably baked beans. But only with meat.

2) have you ever eaten a pork pie floater? (they are real not simply a Pratchett invention)

Not aware that I did. But one never knows.

3) What would you do if invisible for a day?

Ladies' showers would be a logic answer.

But seriously, I don't think I would like to be invisible, not even for a day. I'm a social person (not socialistic!!!).

1. Do you like musicals? Which one is your all time favourite?

Sibling Chatty

1. Do you like musicals? Which one is your all time favourite?

Yes, I like musicals. I have several favorites. I can't ever play the parts that I want to sing in them, but Guys and Dolls (I'm not convincing as Nicely-Nicely) and Damn Yankees (I can sing Lola, but I look like Brenderella) are at the top.

Somebody would have to pay me BIG bucks to do Fiddler again. And I HATE, HATE, loathe, despise and HATE Annie.

2. What do you have in your pockets?

Cell phone (waiting to go drive 25 miles in sleet and rain on frozen roads to pick someone up from hospital), keys, tissues and a dog biscuit.

3. If you could enter the world of a book, which one would it be?

Discworld, somewhere around Lancre, or maybe in Ahnk-Morpork, but NOT in The Shades.

======================

1) You've got 6 hours free time. No chores, no work issues, no 'should do' no pressures. Your time. What do you do?

Read a good book.  Take a nap.  Get online and chat it up with my toadies :)

2)For carnivores: Hom do you like your steak?
For vegetarians: What is your favorine source of protien?

Medium-rare to rare.  Depends on the cut of meat.  NO bones-in, please. I'm civilized, and take my meat sans bones. ::)  NY strip likely my favorite cut of cow.  Chicken thighs (okay, you can leave the bone in that, if you simply must).  Orange roughy. Mmmmm. Any sort of shellfish, so long as it's from salt-water.

3) Favorite Muppet? (or favorite Dr. Suess character if you're not a Muppet kinda person.)

Dr Bunsen--no Kermit--no Animal--no Beaker--no.  Aaah. phooie. I loved'em all.

1) Movie, book or play?

3) Live album or studio album? Or DVD of their music videos?
Sometimes, the real journey can only be taken by making a mistake.

my webpage-- alas, Cox deleted it--dead link... oh well ::)

Kiyoodle the Gambrinous

1) Movie, book or play?

Book would come probably first. But it would depend on my mood, sometimes I'm not in the mood for reading and just relax in front of a good movie. And depends on the play as well.

2) Political rally, church/synagogue/mosque/etc or tea with a few friends at a home?


If by tea you mean beer and by home you mean pub, then I'd prefer having tea with a few friends at home. ;D

3) Live album or studio album? Or DVD of their music videos?

Seeing the band/musician/etc. live would be the best option. :)

==================================================
