Little Tease

Now, fellow bloggers and readers Naomi, Pangie and Busgirlie will be able to read past the first post on the Survivor Thialand threads at Dave's Garden, in particular in the Media Forum...But the rest of y'all who don't subscribe can only see the first post of each. Ohhhh, the things you're missing! ;)

The Thursday Three, Belated

How'd I miss these for so long?

1. What is the best Halloween costume that you have ever worn?
Had to be the Bad Hair Day Fairy. I had a wand and everything! I'll have to see if I can scare up that picture, LOL.

2. What is the best horror or Halloween related movie in your view?
I don't much go for the gross-out hacker movies, not anymore. I do like a great suspenseful, creepy movie, though. One of my favorites is The Sixth Sense. I loved that movie!

3. What is your favorite tradition and activity for Halloween and why?
Every year we go out to Pigeon Roost Farm with our best friends and take lots of pictures at the cool photo-op spots they've set up for just that purpose. It's fun to look back at our pictures and see how much (or how little) we've changed. They have tame turkeys and goats which roam around, plus other animals penned for you to see, so it's great fun. Then we go buy pumpkins somewhere cheap, LOL.

Bonus for comments: What should BBQ and I dress up as for Halloween?
I don't know ya, so it's hard to say. How about...Samson and Delilah? The classic brute and his belle.

What Cat Are You?




Take the Purrsonality Quiz!

Ok, I don't know how quiet I am, but I do like to make people happy. :) How about you?

Boxes, Boxes Everywhere, and Not a Spot to Tink

So poignant. God love ya! :) That link may not work until this week's posts are archived over at Busgirlie's page. It's the entry called "Boxes...Boxes... everywhere!"

TGIF Again

Life just seems to be an endless series of Fridays lately. Once again, it's Friday Five time, too:

1. How many TVs do you have in your home?
Three: office, living room and bedroom.

2. On average, how much TV do you watch in a week?
I tend to be online far more than I watch TV. Probably....on average I watch 15 hours/week. It just depends.

3. Do you feel that television is bad for young children?
A qualified yes. My husband and I both rue the fact that our childhood memories are comprised largely of what we watched on TV, not of the games we played or the friends we had. We lived in front of the tube. I think there are great kids shows, no doubt - but I also think it dulls a kid's imagination to have everything fed to them visually without any effort on their part. It's just not interactive. I think there needs to be a balance, and that TV shouldn't be used as a babysitter.

4. What TV shows do you absolutely HAVE to watch, and if you miss them, you're heartbroken?
That varies for us. Right now, it's Survivor Thialand, ER and Dog Days (turn your volume down on that last site, LOL).

5. If you had the power to create your own television network, what would your line-up look like?
Man, it'd probably be the best of several networks' shows! Frankly, it'd be a big pay-per-view thing where people could choose the shows they wanted from all the other cable/satellite networks.
