Stolen Questions

Hello!   

It is very cold here along the mid-Atlantic seacoast but sunny and bright as well after a few days of rain and silvery winter skies.

With weather, cold, solar storms and direct Schumann resonance hits, it's been a tough week for me.

I wrote this and forgot to set the automatic publish on it.. so here it comes now. Watch out!

 

Welcome to Sunday Stealing. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. Cheers to all of us thieves!

Stolen from Tom

1) What was the scariest thing in the world to you when you were a kid? Does it still scare you now?

 I didn't like the noise of fireworks.  It isn't pleasant even now though it doesn't scare me to the same degree.  Close up the noise bothers me and upsets my heart but then again, so does the noise from rock concerts and is why I avoid them.   

2) Imagine your 12-year-old daughter (or granddaughter) is hosting a sleepover at your home. A sudden

 storm knocks out cellphone service, wifi and cable. How would you keep these suddenly unplugged pre-teens entertained?

 I have a gas stove so cooking is no problem during a power outage.. so we can bake cookies, make homemade pizza or hamburgers and then play all sorts of fun fames.   We usually do that with friends and family anyway it's its a lot of fun.    Or we could start up the fire pit and sit around and sing or tell stories.    We could sit on the beach and do the same. 

3) What piece of movie or TV memorabilia would you love to own?   The Ponderosa from Bonanza. or the Plaza Hotel apartment suite from Eloise.   From the novel One Fifth Avenue by Candace Bushnell, "the" mansion apartment at 1 Fifth Ave in NYC.

4) You are gifted with the services of a personal assistant for four hours. What would you ask your assistant to do?    Organize and straighten up the back bedroom.

 

5) If literary characters were real, which one would you like to interview, and what would you ask?

There are a few I'd like to slap around in an interview namely the self righteous Rhett Butler.   I would explain but I'd get in trouble.

Pa Ingalls was a real person but, he was also in a book and I'd ask him why he was so insenstive to the needs of Caroline! The constant moves were very hard on her. She longed for a permanent home.

The heroic Uncle Tom from Uncle Tom's Cabin to ask him how it felt to be a hero who died to save others. He was a devout Christian filled iwth faith and strength of character. What fueled his great faith in dark times?

I'd interview Dean Moriarity from Jack Kerouac's  On the Road  and ask about his "It". How did he come by it... where was it taking him?

Tuesday 4 is available and I do hope you will decide to join in.
