A 40 Question Quiz from Redneck Nerdboy!

I was reading over at Tense Teacher's place, and I saw a comment from a guy who has named himself "Redneck Nerdboy". So, I HAD to check out his blog, having been married to a redneck, and lived amongst them for a time. Turns out he has four: Poor Man's Telepathy, which seems to be about poetry, "Redneck Nerdboy", "My Childhood Memories", and "What Can We Tell Ya? It's a Red-Prof thang". I haven't had a chance to read them all, and the redneck-prof one doesn't seem to have been updated lately, but the "Redneck Nerdboy" one is great! He put up this 40 question meme, and I thought it looked like fun. So, here goes:

1. Do you still have tonsils? – Yes.

2. Would you bungee jump? – Hell no. I'm too chicken to even go on The Tower of Terror at Disney World.

3. If You Could Do Anything In The World For A Living What Would It Be? – I would be a children's book author, or a journalist.

4. How many tattoos do you have? – One. See "The 8 Things You Didn't Know About Me" post below, for a detailed picture. (grin)


5. Your favorite fictional animal? – Hobbes, from "Calvin and Hobbes".




6. One person that never fails to make you laugh? – 4 of them - my kids!

26. Do you go to church? – Yes, almost every Sunday.

27. What famous person would you like to have dinner with? Barbara Walters. Sorry, I know it's trite, but I think she is amazing.

36. What is your favorite candy? – Junior Mints or Heath Bar.

37. Do you burn or tan? – Tan.

39. Do you own a gun? – No.

40. What do you think of hot dogs? – I like them grilled, or over a campfire.

I'll do it, but what happened to #16?

Honey, I'm thinking of getting rid of Poorman's Telepathy and the Red-Prof Thang blog because I don't have the time to mess with them. I think I will.

However, my main blog is my home away from my real home and I'm there every single day! I hope you really enjoy it!

Your answers kicked butt! Hahaha! Calvin and Hobbs!!! I should have remembered them! I love those guys. I have their Essential Calivin and Hobbs book here at my cubicle.

Always,
Jas...
