I am joining in for Saturday 9.....
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 to answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions!
Saturday 9: Love Sneakin' Up on You (1994) 
Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
1) The song begins with Bonnie Raitt waiting anxiously for a call. If your phone were to ring right now, who would you expect to be on the other end?
My friends
2) She likens trying to avoid love to trying to stop the rain. Is rain expected where you are this weekend?
We just finished with 6 days of tropical storm with high winds. Rain storms were expected today but never came and none are on tap for the weekend it seems.
3) Bonnie was accepted by Radcliffe College but once she got there, she decided higher education wasn't for her and she dropped out to become a performer. Tell us about something you're not sorry you walked away from.
Some people I am far better without.
4) Bonnie's father was Broadway star John Raitt. Because of his career, the family was based on the East Coast. Once Bonnie got out to the West Coast, she realized she felt more at home and settled in the San Francisco area. Today, do you live far from where you grew up?
I am about 70 miles from where I grew up.
5) Prince invited Bonnie to his home, Paisley Park, to discuss working together. The project never happened, but she treasures the memory of her time with a musician she greatly admired. What's your favorite Prince song?
I really have no clue about him at all.
6) When she's on the road, Bonnie likes to order Thai food. What's for dinner tonight at your house?
Sirloin hamburger , green beans and salad (Friday nite)
7) In 1994, when this song was popular, ER debuted and became a big hit for NBC. Do you enjoy doctor shows?
No. I actually dislike them a lot.
8) Also in 1994, Olympic figure skating hopeful Nancy Kerrigan was the victim of an attack. Her rival was rumored to be involved. Without looking it up, do you remember the name of that rival?
Yes, the infamous Tonya Harding.
9) Random question -- Which famous Tom would you rather be seated beside at dinner: Tom Cruise, Tom Jones, or Tom Brady? If I am forced to I would probably pick Tom Cruise and ask about his career.
Tuesday 4 is coming up tomorrow... we would love you to join in.
"...Tom Cruise and ask about his career. "
ReplyDeleteI would pick him too. He considered becoming a priest before deciding on acting. I would ask him about that.
Ha! It seems like most of us think Tom Cruise is weird but would choose him of those options. I'd rather go with Tom Selleck as someone else suggested.
ReplyDeleteNice dinner! Sometimes it is hard to figure out who one needs to cull from one's life, but it is worth the time to think about it.
