Just in case anyone is not aware yet what this thread is all about...

This thread is for people to either offer, or be nominated by another member to go into The HOT Seat, so we can possibly find out more about our friends here. Once in that 'hot seat' so to speak, the idea is for other members to ask that person questions about their life and interests in general.
Perhaps where they live, do they have pets, do they like a drink, do they go on holidays much, and if so where?
I don't really know, as that is for you to decide.
The person will be in the 'Hot Seat' for around 2 days (around 48 hours) answering questions as and when they can.
That's the general thinking anyway.
Please feel free to offer either yourself, or nominate another forum member, who may or may not want to do this of course.
I think that you will all agree that our VickyNightowl and Ameriscot did a rather sterling job in answering their particular questions.
I for one feel that I know a lot about them than I did before, which gives me a warm glow.
So now sitting in The Hot Seat is Ina, and I must thank her for that.
Ina will be there until around Monday/Tuesday when I will ask the next person when they would like to start.​

Hi folks.
Because Ralphy does not appear to be around, Ina is now in The Hot Seat.
Thank you Ina.;)

Right Ina.
I know absolutely nothing about you, as I haven't even looked at your profile.
I like a bottle or perhaps two of bitter beer every late evening as I relax in my arm chair.
I want to ask...

Do you like booze, and if so, how much do you drink?
I hope that you are not an alcoholic!

Ina, a question I was asked which I liked:

If you could choose a free second home anywhere in the world, where would it be?
 

Ina, if you were given the gift of time travel, how far back and/or forward would you go in terms of years? What would drive your choices?
 
Boozer = Alcohol is fine, and once in a while I'll have a White Russian.

Ameriscot = If I could find an island that stayed 68* to 70* that would be the place.

Gail S = When my father married me off at 13.

Bobw = I would go back 51 years and I would run to my mother's reservation, so that no marriage would occur.

BW = I learned that planning for myself was better than being planned for, and routine can be both soothing and boring.

Vicky = I gave birth to two sons, I also raised two step daughters, and a boy from the Virgin Islands. All but one girl are dead.
 
Pitch us your life story book blurb style. in other words, in as few sentences as possible, make us really want to add the book, Ina's Tale, to our to be read pile.
 
Ina, as a senior with a great deal of wisdom, if you were given the absolute power to change three things about this country, how would you use that power?
 
Gail S.

I was born to a German father and a Native American, (Umatilla), mother.

According to my father, a self ordained fire and brimstone minister, I was born as the devil's child. I was his punishment for his earlier sins.

I was raised as a pioneer child might have been. I have farmed and raised beef, hogs, rabbits, chickens. I can foods, hunt, skin, tan hides, work leather, sew, embroidery. I am a potter that can mix my own glazes, and I have built three kilns, I am a portrait artist, and I have been selling those for about 15 years.

I have helped build two homes, and I now live in a large log cabin.

I started school at almost eight, and I finished the fifth grade by the time I was ten, which was all the education my father thought a woman needed.

My father arranged my first marriage when I turned 13, and my mother recieved $500. for her permission.

I became a mother at 14 and 16. At 15, I entered my second relationship with a gentle man with two little girls, and we adopted a young black boy from the Virgin Islands.

I worked at any menial job I could find most of my life until I entered college at 35. I went to college for nineteen years studying whatever I chose.

I owned and ran a commercial and industrial janitorial business that employed 329 employees for 20 years, and lost it in 2008.

I've help cared for and lost all of my family except for some grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

I am now 64, and starting all over. I volunteer at our local VA hospital, and I am now weaving blankets for the permanent VA residents.
 
Bobw,

I don't know about the wisdom part, but I'll try.

1. I would not allow TV to rule the 'show'. I think going back to listening to and seeing just what the candidates really have to offer worked well for most of our country's history.

2. I think it is imperative that our leaders serve in the military, so they know the difference in leading and following.

3. I feel that all political positions should have term limits, and not just be appointed until they die.

Good answers!
 
Ina, I have just read your life story and I am blown away. Here in England I normally post with females your age who moan about everything and anything and expect life to be presented free on a plate.

Well done you.
