Saturday 9: I Fought the Law...

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

(I'm a little behind on memes this week.)

Saturday 9: I Fought the Law

1. Have you ever been on the wrong side of the law? No, not for anything beyond a driving offense.

2. What was the last thing you described as either “surprisingly good” or “surprisingly bad?” Well, hmmm. I don't know. I should have answered this last week, I might have had better answers. At the moment, the movie Rio was surprising. It wasn't bad, really, but it wasn't as good as I'd thought it would be. I love animated movies and have to own most of them, but not this one.

3. When was the last time you unintentionally surprised someone else? I surprised my son and daughter by picking them up last weekend and having them here through the hurricane. We all had a great time. (Wondering how I suddenly have kids all of a sudden? One of my friends asked me if I'd like to be his mom. I said I'd love to. Viola! Instant kids!)

4. When was the last time you deliberately surprised someone else? I don't know. I seem to have no answers tonight.

5. What was the last really funny movie you watched? I watched Ice Age today after not seeing it for a long time. I loved it.

6. What is something that you've never done that you secretly are dying to do? Oooh, wow... let me think. Secretly dying to do? Well, I'm dying to go to the Moon, but that is not a secret.

7. What do you hope is different in your life by August 2012? I'd love to not be disabled, but I highly doubt there will be a cure for adult-onset muscular dystrophy Type II by then.

8. Who is the last person you greeted at your door? Um, what, someone who just showed up? No one. I do greet my mailman, but he doesn't come to the door.

9. If you could live in any ancient city during the height of the quality of its society and culture, which one would you choose? Oh, my! I don't know. So many choices! I'd love to have been in Ur, in Sumeria. Definitely!

Thanks so much for joining us again at Saturday: 9. As always, feel free to come back, see who has participated and comment on their posts. In fact sometimes, if you want to read & comment on everyone's responses, you might want to check back again tomorrow. But it is not a rule. We haven’t any rules here. Join us on next Saturday for another version of Saturday: 9, "Just A Silly Meme on a Saturday!" Enjoy your weekend

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
