I love to read and color, too! But I think the ugliest thing is gangsta rap songs/videos/attitudes.
ReplyDeleteI would have to agree with #21... I am so over winter! Have a great Sunday!
ReplyDeleteYour answer to #21 made me melancholy--we're slated to get another 7-10 inches of snow overnight.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your answer re: capitalism and yet so many think its the greatest thing in the world!
ReplyDeleteE Michael Jones calls it state sponsored usury. Heidi was one of my favorites as a kid as well.
I forgot rolling my tongue. I can do that too. I loved Heidi as well. When we moved here, 80 miles from San Francisco, I used to go to the bathroom to try to see Mt. Diablo, the highest point in the Bay Area, making me feel like I wasn't so far from home. I always felt like Heidi.
ReplyDelete"Oh, Grandfather!" I've never read Heidi, but I love the Shirley Temple movie.
ReplyDeleteI've heard that tongue rolling is genetic. I can do it, too, so maybe we're distant cousins.
I am ready for the sun to come back out. It has been a really cloudy winter. UGH! Loved your answers! Have a nice day!

I so agree that Capitalism is a global menace. England used it against India and crushed them for more than two centuries. Should be called Vulture Capitalism rather than Venture.
ReplyDeleteAh, wee Heidi, Now I remember reading that book as a kiddie.
Tongue rolling. Another Me,too. It's got to be the Scot's Irish. ;o)

Touching the base! Number one is so sweet. I would love my husband to retire early as well so we can spend more time as a family. It's so sad that he has to work 6 days a week and I get to only see him leave for work in the morning and sleep at night. I have to work until 11 p.m and by the time I am off for bed he is already sleeping and tired. So sad.
ReplyDeleteWe're having a long winter day here in my neck of the woods. (PA, USA)
ReplyDeleteFavorite children’s story is “The Velateen Rabbitt”Because if you believe in something hard enough it can come to fruition.
