    What is your favorite type of nut?

    I like them all and in almost any form such as peanut butter. I actually have to restrain myself from buying them.

    The Sky Really Is Falling

    One of things that stands out in the memory of my youth, was on a trip to the Museum of Science and Industry with my father. We were looking at a large rock in a glass case. I was too young to read, but I do remember a written explanation, that my father explained to me. It was a meteorite that...

    I had a look at Facebook today

    Oddly, I was listening to NPR on my car radio yesterday, and they were interviewing a guy who had built careers for others, I remember that he was credited for bringing Lady Ga Ga to the public. I didn't recognize the others they named. They spent a lot of time talking about advertising, and...

    Do you play the Lottery?

    My last lottery ticket was about 30 years ago. I forced myself to take it seriously for maybe 5 months, and I bought 5 tickets each week. They were a dollar each, and then I just stopped. It was fun dreaming about winning, but the feeling that it was a waste of money was stronger. I actually...

    There have been 27 James Bond Movies since 1962

    He certainly set the tone. It took me awhile to adjust to those that followed, until who the new one was going to be became more interesting than the films themselves.

    I was expecting a major invasion this year, but I haven't heard a sound or seen one critter yet.

    Caitlin Clark and the WNBA

    She was the reason I got interested in Women's basketball in the first place, but when I started following it, I realized how talent in women's basketball is so widespread. Clark just happened to be sitting at the apex. But it takes more than one person on a team, and even Caitlin Clark who has...

    There have been 27 James Bond Movies since 1962

    When I tended bar that summer after college, if a guy would have ordered some drink and said, "Shaken, not stirred," I would have done it for him, but I would be thinking, "What a pompous ass!"

    "Shaken, not stirred."... Talk about a discriminating alcoholic.

    Have you saved any love letters?

    I bought one of those for my dog. He destroyed it in a couple of hours after squeaking it non stop. Now I just give him nyla-bones. When I went through the checkout at Walmart, I took the squeak toy out of my basket and put it on the conveyor. Of course I had to squeak it a couple times. The...

    Number 1 Adult Contemporary song in the year of my birth

    I can't remember, but it would probably be something by Glenn Miller.

    Have you saved any love letters?

    I would save them for a while, but like Patty, they seemed too personal to keep. When I got married, I had no love letters stored in a box somewhere that I would have to explain to my wife: Wife: "Why are you still keeping old love letters from other women?"... Me:"Well, umm, <cough>, You see...

    There have been 27 James Bond Movies since 1962

    They were a hoot back in the day, but I started to lose interest around number five. I still went, but it was more like a habit. I wouldn't bother today.
