Good morning, bloggeroos!!
… I will soon slap myself for having made that statement. But I digress...
Anyway… today’s topic is, well… um… actually, I’m deceiving you. You’ve called my bluff, I have no topic to
speak of. It’s a few hours after what
was a really cool Thanksgiving, and so I think I’ll take the time to just
write. Not really about anything in
particular, just a few random bubbles of thought floating around the humongous
noggin which rests upon these shoulders…
OOHHH, WAIT A MINUTE!!!
I just came up with something cool!!
Score one for me, I truly can’t believe just how awesome I am!!
In light of a recent idea I just had (see above), I decided
to scour the internet from top to bottom, left to right, A to Z, and any other
way the Wonkavator could take me (awesome Willy
Wonka reference, self high-five) and I stumbled upon a personality profile
type quiz. Soo… you see where this is
going, right?
That’s right, boys & girls… you’re gonna learn about one
of the most unique phenomenons to ever grace the planet Earth… ME!!
… LOL, seriously, how full of myself am I tonight?! Just to be fair, if you take into
consideration how full of turkey I currently am, the answer could be much worse
J
And… here… we… go…
Fun Questions About
Movies to Ask Friends
Everyone watches
movies these days, so here are some fun questions to ask you friends about the
movies.
1. What’s your favorite movie of all time and
why?
Ooh, tough one, being that I’m a movie buff…
but I’ll have to probably take the easy route out and say The Shawshank
Redemption. It’s a constant reminder
that no matter how deep the hole is, faith & karma will always be there to
lend you a hand & help you find your place.
The Big Lebowski would be a close second, because that’s just, like, my
opinion, man.
2. What was the best movie you saw this last year
and why?
I was tempted to say Lincoln, because it’s on
my all-time Top 5 list, but it’s been over a year. So, I’ll go with Saving Mr. Banks. I cried, and I felt the pain of P.L. Travers
as she struggled to open her heart again… and I felt the joy she finally felt
when she did. Movies that can grab my
emotions… that’s where it’s at!
3. Who’s your favorite director and why?
Christopher Nolan. His work on The Dark Knight trilogy was
incredible. A close second would be Ivan
Reitman… Ghostbusters & Kindergarten Cop.
Enough said J
4. Do you like black and white movies? Why or why
not?
Some movies just have to stay in black &
white to keep their full measure of effect on the audience, so… yes.
5. Do you read movie reviews? If so, which
reviewers do you enjoy? If not, why?
I read them every now & then, but I prefer
to form my own opinions rather than be assigned one.
6. What’s the scariest movie you’ve ever
seen? Do you like horror movies? Why or why not?
Super Mario Brothers, the live action
version. I’m terrified that it exists
and that somewhere, someone else could be exposed to it…
… oh, a serious answer? LOL… yes, I like horror movies, and I
honestly can’t think of one that scares me enough to qualify for this answer…
except maybe House of 1,000 Corpses, that was some demented shit.
7. Who’s your favorite actor and why?
Again, another one where a single answer is
extremely difficult. However, just based
upon his job in the movie Lincoln, I can’t get Daniel Day-Lewis out of my
head. What an outstanding film.
8. Do you cry at movies? If so, which movies make
you cry?
Yes.
Titanic, Tommy Boy, Saving Mr. Banks and The Muppet Movie. There may be others, I’m not sure. And yes, I’m serious.
9. What’s the funniest movie you’ve ever seen?
Either Super Troopers, Grandma’s Boy, Waiting,
Office Space or Ted. They all qualify.
10. Would you rather see a movie at the theater or
at home on DVD? Why?
Probably at home. The theater is way too overpriced and I like
my comfy couch. Plus… free parking.
Fun Questions to Ask
Friends About TV
Even more people watch
TV than go to the movies. So here are some fun questions to ask your friends
about TV.
1. What’s your favorite TV show of all
time and why?

has taken me on such an emotional roller coaster before, and the fabulous group
of actors they’ve gotten is second to none.
Anyone who snubs it as just a “zombie” show is clueless.

watching TV?
Honest answer?
Other than the news, no more than five.

watching. Self-explanatory.

you were growing up?
Probably The Simpsons…. and I’m still a fan.
5. Who’s your favorite actor on television and
why?
Patrick Stewart. Capt. Jean-Luc Picard. He beat The Borg. And he made bald cool.
6. Would you rather watch a sitcom, a reality
show, a police drama, a legal drama, or a medical drama? Or something else?
Why?
None… I’d rather watch The History Channel.
7. Has a television show ever moved you to tears?
If yes, which one and when?
The Walking Dead has… on occasion. So has Keeping Up With The Kardashians, but
that was only because the batteries in the remote were dead and I couldn’t
change the channel.
8. Do you watch the news on TV? How often?
Yes, every day.
9. Have you ever been on TV?
Well, there was this one show with a puzzle

Cmdr. Data. He never abandoned the mission and was unintentionally funny.

Healthy.
No question.

I’m already good looking, so I’ll take the
dough.

death penalty is the only option.

you think she made the right choice or the wrong choice?
Nope.

or the power to read minds?
Invisibility… it can be a powerful ally.

without a significant other, or would you rather have a partner who is

If I don’t find a match that suits me, I’m
fine where I am.
9. Would you rather spend life in prison or be
executed?
Prison.
One can always be saved before the end.
10. Should marijuana be legalized? Why or why not?
I personally think so… it’s not as harmful as
people make it out to be, and if someone is responsible enough to partake &
not be a danger to those around them, why not let ‘em have their smoke?
So, friends… there it is.
I can say without question that this was the single most uninspired blog
I’ve ever written… and the single most inspired blog I’ve ever written. Wrap your noodles around that one, y’all.
Enjoy your day… let the turkey digest, and of course, try to
keep in mind those three little words that I will forever live by:
