Not sure. Haven't listened to a CD in months. Probably a diva such as Alicia Keyes or Celine Dion, possibly latin.

There's a new variety that's added cream-flavor to soften the tartness a bit. They're very good.

Truck loads of stuff!

* I believe Jesus is God and/or God's son

* I believe most of the regular Gardeners here are true to their real personalities, and so I can trust many people that I would frankly play hell to prove even exist. I guess that means I have really good imaginary friends. :p

* I believe my life is my own to live & f*** up as I see fit. Maybe there's a hope, but there is no strict plan, only free will.

* I believe the vast majority of mankind is just and good.

* I believe that with the proper diet, exercise, and self discipline, a person can live literally forever, but what's the point?

* I believe that a different family situation would have produced a different person.

* I believe anyone of sound mind and body can create a fulfilling life for themselves independent of any government entity or charity.

* I believe nothing is more effective in making the world a better place than living one's own life with integrity and empathy.

And probably alot more.

How can we live with the "Militant Radical Islamic Fundamentalist" that follows a Jihad order?Exactly the way we live with any group of human beings that hate us. We defend ourselves when attacked. We do not pull a page from their playbook and practice genocide, ethnic cleansing, or any other preemptory action. To do otherwise is to abandon our ideals, and I will not!

Very few people mention 5-year plans because they are afraid someone will ask them about theirs. Therefore, I'm sure you have one. :yh_glasse Would you mind sharing it?

Which season do you look the most forward to?

If your house was featured on the MTV show "Cribs" what part would you show off the most?

Did you get the wife anything cool for Valentine's day?

Anything give you the creeps?

Where in your life would you like to be more committed?

What makes a home a "a home"? Do you live in a house or a home?

Did you have a big wedding?

I mention it cause I thought I was the only one that didn't have one. My good friend always had a 5-year and 10-year plan and she achieved them. My hubby says she's his hero. She plans it and then more than accomplishes the goal. For myself, I sort of roll into things. I'm not good at decisions so life just sort of "happens". So far, it is working out okay.......... I'll never know what could have been had I just stepped out and grabbed life.

Washed.

Spring, without a doubt.

Of my current place? the outside of the front door. :wah:

I was really proud of the house we sold in Las Vegas. The back yard was dust and rock when we bought it. I think I posted a pic here somewhere.

hotsauce wrote: Did you get the wife anything cool for Valentine's day?
9:45am Valentine's Day my wife left for Okinawa, Japan, to care for her sick mother. I'll see her in five weeks.

hotsauce wrote: Anything give you the creeps?
Walking alone in a jungle on a cloudy night.

hotsauce wrote: Where in your life would you like to be more committed?
I haven't researched it, but I'm sure that one psychiatric facility is just about as the same as another.

hotsauce wrote: What makes a home a "a home"? Do you live in a house or a home?
I'm always home. Home is a feeling. It's comfort and safety. People get too wrapped up in 'stuff'. Go to any of these model homes the builders set up to show off their floorplans, all professionally decorated. Do any of them feel 'homey'?

hotsauce wrote: Did you have a big wedding?
Our wedding day consisted of driving around Naha, Japan, with a bilingual legal aide in the back seat saying "Turn here." "Turn Left." "Park here." "Sit here." "I need your thumb print." "Let's go. Turn right." Stuff like that. Around noon or one o'clock she suggested we stop at McDonald's for lunch. I asked how much longer this would take. She said, "We're done. You're married."

Very anticlimatic.

I'm ambivalent about 5-year plans. I've yet to stay on one path for five years - since I decided to live rather than exist, that is. But a great man once said about battle something like "Plans are useless, but planning is essential." I definitely need something like a 1-year plan, though.

School crossing lights. If they're not flashing & I can get where I'm going without slowing to a crawl, it has transitioned from spring to summer. They start again to signal Autumn.

We have an official Day of Pity to commemorate those areas that have to endure winter, but we never remember when that day is.
