Are your parents married or divorced?<BR/>No longer around, they divorced in the ‘80's<BR/><BR/>2. Are you a vegetarian?<BR/>Open the dictionary, look up "carnivore", there should be a picture of Rupe right there .....<BR/><BR/>3. Do you believe in Heaven?<BR/>Undeniably.<BR/><BR/>4. Have you ever come close to dying?<BR/>Not that I can recall.<BR/><BR/>5. What jewelry do you wear 24/7?<BR/>None. Except when working heavy duty and sundry other efforts, Rupe has his wedding ring on.<BR/><BR/>6. Favorite time of day?<BR/>Late afternoon, when the shadows dance and the light is mellow.<BR/><BR/>7. Do you eat the stems of broccoli?<BR/>Yes.<BR/><BR/>8. Do you wear makeup?<BR/>Only on Halloween.<BR/><BR/>9. Ever have plastic surgery?<BR/>No.<BR/><BR/>10. Do you color your hair?<BR/>See #8.<BR/><BR/>11. What do you wear to bed?<BR/>Underwear. The occasional crumb.<BR/><BR/>12. Have you ever done anything illegal?<BR/>Yes.<BR/><BR/>13. Can you roll your tongue?<BR/>Rupe wasn't able to originally. Rupe taught himself how to do it.<BR/><BR/>14. Do you tweeze your eyebrows?<BR/>Yes. Rupe razors'em as well sometimes. (Yes, yes, yes, Rupe knows. Not good. Get off me.)<BR/><BR/>15. What kind of sneakers?<BR/>Inexpensive ones. Rupe has a rissue with paying more than $15.00 for a pair of shoes.<BR/><BR/>16. Do you believe in abortions?<BR/>Is a bit confused by the question. Absolutely, I believe in them ... ‘cause they're out there everywhere. Is Rupe against them? Yes.<BR/><BR/>17. What is your hair color?<BR/>Medium dark brown with strands of grey slowly working into the mix.<BR/><BR/>18. Future child's name?<BR/>Rupe is finished in this arena. However, if the Lord leaves one on the doorstep, Ripley and Eli will be considerations.<BR/><BR/>19. Do you snore?<BR/>On occasion, yes. Rupe knows this ‘cause he's woken his ownself up doing so.<BR/><BR/>20. If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be?<BR/>Space.<BR/><BR/>21. Do you sleep with stuffed animals?<BR/>No. I make certain they are way beyond a stuffed state before coming to bed. Less mess that way if'n there's an accident. (No, Rupe does not.)<BR/><BR/>22. If you won the lottery, what would you do first?<BR/>Discuss the ramifications.<BR/><BR/>23. Gold or silver?<BR/>Rupe truly does not know. Rupe'll come back to this one. (Okay, Rupe's back. Hasn't a clue.)<BR/><BR/>24. Hamburger or hot dog?<BR/>Man. This is a tough one. This is a blog subject, not a one word answer. Rupe's had killer burgers, Rupe's had killer dogs. And the corollary of each. Rupe'd've to say both.<BR/><BR/>25. If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?<BR/>Could not choose easily. Toss up between pumpkin seeds, shrimpys, chicken, raw vegetables, cherries.<BR/><BR/>26. City, beach or country?<BR/>Rupe dislikes his answer: city.<BR/><BR/>27. What was the last thing you touched?<BR/>Is very confused by this question ... and cannot answer. Supposes it would be the keyboard.<BR/><BR/>28. Where did you eat last?<BR/>Home.<BR/><BR/>29. When's the last time you cried?<BR/>Within the last two weeks.<BR/><BR/>30. Do you read blogs?<BR/>Yes.<BR/><BR/>31. Would you ever go out dressed like the opposite sex?<BR/>Rupe has. And Rupe has often.<BR/><BR/>32. Ever been involved with the police?<BR/>Yes.<BR/><BR/>33. What's your favorite shampoo conditioner and soap?<BR/>Does not have either for the first two, Irish Spring for the third.<BR/><BR/>34. Do you talk in your sleep?<BR/>On occasion.<BR/><BR/>35. Ocean or pool?<BR/>Either.<BR/><BR/>36. Who would you take on a ménage à trois for a dirty weekend?<BR/>Would not. Not even for a "clean" weekend.<BR/><BR/>37. Window seat or aisle?<BR/>Window on a plane, aisle at an event.<BR/><BR/>38. Ever met anyone famous?<BR/>All the time.<BR/><BR/>39. Do you feel that you've had a truly successful life?<BR/>What a loaded question. The short answer: Certain aspects of it - absolutely. Pride, however, states "no".<BR/><BR/>40. Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?<BR/>Twirl.<BR/><BR/>41. Ricki Lake or Oprah Winfrey?<BR/>There's a lake named Ricki? (Do. Not. Get. Rupe. Started. On. Oprah. Lest he says something he will regret.)<BR/><BR/>42. Basketball or Football?<BR/>Either, during their respective seasons. (Rupe's frustrated there is no baseball reference ...)<BR/><BR/>43. How long do your showers last?<BR/>About 5 minutes.<BR/><BR/>44. Automatic or do you drive a stick?<BR/>Automatic.<BR/><BR/>45. Cake or ice cream?<BR/>All depends on the mood. Is the cake German Chocolate? Is the ice cream Breyer's Natural Vanilla? And what do you have against pie? And, what ... custard doesn't rate?!? "Mounds" are certain to be slighted, y'now. Not to mention cookies .... *yeesh*<BR/><BR/>46. Are you self-conscious?<BR/>There are times ...<BR/><BR/>47. Have you ever drank so much you threw up?<BR/>In his best Sarah Palin voice, "You betcha ..."<BR/><BR/>48. Have you ever given money to a beggar?<BR/>Ab. So. Lutely.<BR/><BR/>49. Have you been in love?<BR/>Yes and currently.<BR/><BR/>50. Where do you wish you were?<BR/>Nothing comes to mind.<BR/><BR/>51. Are you wearing socks?<BR/>Yes.<BR/><BR/>52. Have you ever ridden in an ambulance?<BR/>Yes.<BR/><BR/>53. Can you tango?<BR/>Nope. But if daylight comes, I'll be "wantin' go home".<BR/><BR/>54. Last gift you received?<BR/>The unexpected hug from eldest daughter, expressing her preference for Dad's clean-shaven face.<BR/><BR/>55. Last sport you played?<BR/>Bowling. (Thinks it's a sport. Will have to research.)<BR/><BR/>56. Things you spend a lot of money on?<BR/>In all practicality, food.<BR/><BR/>57. Where do you live?<BR/>A house in beautiful Southern California.<BR/><BR/>58. Where were you born?<BR/>Arcadia Methodist Hospital, Arcadia, CA.<BR/><BR/>59. Last wedding attended?<BR/>Brother-/sister-in-law's.<BR/><BR/>60. Most hated food(s)?<BR/>Capers. Uncooked green bell pepper.<BR/><BR/>61. Can you sing?<BR/>Yes. Sometimes well, even.<BR/><BR/>62. Last place you went on holiday?<BR/>Carson City.<BR/><BR/>63. Favorite regular drink?<BR/>Milk.<BR/><BR/>64. Current fave song?<BR/>Two of'em: "2 a.m." by Slightly Stoopid; "I Chant" by Midnite and Desmond Williams.Ruprechthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00877547409686157948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25321235.post-40101986895390992522008-10-13T16:09:00.000-04:002008-10-13T16:09:00.000-04:00Did you say Scene It Seinfeld?
