1. If you could change the ending to one movie you have seen, which one would it be, and how would you reshoot it?
A. It has always bothered me that Thelma and Louise chose to drive their car off a cliff. Instead, I would end the shot with them driving down a long, lonely road, with a sign that said "Canada" or "Mexico" on it in the distance.
2. If you were to select a food that best describes your character, what food would it be?
A. Jello. Or Timid Little Mouse Stew, which I don't think is really a thing.
3. If you could cure any disease, which would it be?
A. Cancer in all its forms.
4. If you had to describe the single worst thing a friend could do to you, what would it be?
A. Lie to me, if we're not counting something like shooting me or hitting me in the head with a rock.
5. If you could be a contestant on any game show, which would you like to be on?
A. Jeopardy! But I would never go on a game show.
6. If you could choose the music at your own funeral, what would it be, and who would play it?
A. Oh, I already have that picked out. It would be this:
7. If you had to spend all of your vacations for the rest of your life in the same place, where would you go?
A. I may as well just stay home. That's where I am all the time, anyway, and I like the mountains.
8. If you could ask God a single question, what would it be?
A. Why do good people suffer?
9. If you could eat one food in any quantity for the rest of your life with no ill effects whatsoever, what food would you choose?
A. A salad. Lots of good stuff in salads.
10. If you could have a year any place in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go?
A. Ireland, Scotland, and England.
11. If you could forever eliminate one specific type of prejudice from the earth, which would it be?
A. I don't know why we have to have any prejudices. But if I must only choose one, then I would go with sexism.
12. If you could own one painting from any collection in the world but were not allowed to sell it, which work of art would you select?
A. The Persistence of Memory, by Salvador Dali
13. If you could ask a single question of a dead relative, what would it be and of whom would you ask it?
A. I would ask my mother why she didn't want me.
14. If you had to choose the best television show ever made, which one would you pick?
A. M*A*S*H.
15. If you could write letters to only one person for the rest of your life, who would receive them?
A. I think I'd just send them out into the world without an address, and they'd end up in the dead letter office.

What a sad question to have to ask, but one that certainly deserves an answer. I have never seen that painting before. Very interesting.
ReplyDeleteHi Anita, I am assuming you would not have a return address either. Yes, they would go to the Deal Letter Office. I used to work for the postal service. I worked in the Nixie department for a couple of years. That is where damaged and undeliverable as addressed mail went. I saw a whole lot of letters come through. Wrong address, missing part of an address, wrong zips and more. Lots of letters torn up when people try to mail sand back home to the midwest. Pictures, of all kinds including nude. A plane crashed in our district in the 80's. We got the wet, burned mail and had to dry it and see what we could do with it. It could be a tedious process. I had a little set of stamps I had to use like Return to Sender....... Sorry about your mom. ♥
ReplyDeleteI watched M*A*S*H religiously for the first eight seasons, pretty much until Radar left.
ReplyDeleteI love the song. Pity I didn't know it, I would have suggested it after one of my best friends died.
ReplyDeleteI never asked my mother why she didn't want me and abused me so often. I don't want to ask it anymore... Sometimes silence is best. (She died quit some time ago.)
Huggsss
#1. I agree - I don't see why they did that.
ReplyDelete#7. Switzerland has amazing scenery if you love mountains.

My mother adored MASH. I think there are so many prejudices that you have to find the core reason and change people. Outlawing it doesn't work, we see that.
