Saturday Six - Episode 77

Time once again for fun and games at Saturday Six - Episode 77 courtesy of our good friend, Patrick.

. How many AOL J-landers have you actually met in person? No J-landers but a while back I did meet with a fellow that I had been chatting with via IM for quite some time.

2. How many photos that you have taken yourself are hanging on display in your home in a size of 8x10 or larger? (The print, not the frame!) None

3. How far do you live from your job? About 18 miles What is your commute time like? Thirty to thirty-five minutes each way Has the distance prompted you to consider alternative transportation because of gas prices? Not a lot of alternative options around here to consider but I'm very glad the car we bought earlier this year has great gas mileage.

4. Take this quiz: What decade does your personality live in?

My son called this one. I was born in 1953. Should I be embarrassed?

5. READER'S CHOICE QUESTION #70 from Kris: What is the funniest, most original Halloween costume you've ever seen? Many years ago, my husband needed a costume for work. He took an old laundry basket and cut a hole in the bottom big enough to fit around his waist. He tossed in an assortment of clothes, an empty bottle of bleach, small box of laundry detergent and a box of fabric softener sheets. He draped an item or two of intimate apparel over the side. This was a very original costume since he thought it up on the spur of the moment. He looked pretty amusing to me with this basket of clothes around his middle. He came home later that evening with a bottle of wine as a costume prize. And yes, the clothes he stuffed into the basket were clean!

6. READER'S CHOICE QUESTION #71 from Courtenay: What is your favorite paragraph in a literary work? This might be a thought, or a message, or a descriptive passage which has remained in your consciousness throughout the years. Be sure to post the name of the book and author. I can't answer this question.  I have read lots of books and many thoughts and descriptive passages have stood out and carried me away over the years but I can't pick just one.
