Secret Agent Basil’s Meme
I can’t link to Basil’s blog because it isn’t public, but I’d like to thank her for her meme.
1. What famous (or infamous) person would you like to be?
I can’t think of anyone, maybe just a better looking, younger, and wealthier version of myself.
2. How do you get through the day?
One blog at a time.
3. What is your favorite pleasant memory from childhood?
I don’t know, I had a pretty great childhood. There are lots of pleasant memories. Just hanging out with family. Being a part of a team that won a national softball championship in ‘78, and was introduced on the field at Dodger Stadium. I got Dodger dirt on my shoes! Also, everyone was making paper airplanes out pages of the program, so I made one, just playing around. I threw it and it landed well into right field. Rick Monday had to go over and get it off the field. Whoops.
4. Who’s your daddy? (Just kidding. I’ve always wanted to just say that)
That just makes me think of our friend, Ed. But my daddy, he’s reading.
5. What country have you considered emigrating to since the Bush regime came into power? Why?
Canada. Leigh-Ann is Canadian. They have socialized medicine. Gay marriage is legal. The general populace is more liberal and tolerant than ours. Hockey! We could see Leigh-Ann’s niece & nephew grow up. In my mind, I flirt with France too, but I have no real desire to do it.
6. How important is exercise in your life?
I used to be a total jock, but it was the game that was important, not the exercise. Unfortunately, I don’t really enjoy exercise without the goal of winning or having fun.
7. Describe your life in an alternate universe or an alternate life in this universe.
I’m almost sure I’ve been living in an alternate universe recently.
8. What life form would you like to be if you couldn’t be a human being?
Perhaps a dog. Eat, play, get pets, sleep, get snacks, sleep, eat.
9. How do you define the word “smart?”
Someone who just gets things. Jokes, tv shows, politics, etc. I know there are other definitions, but that’s the most important one in my personal universe.
10. Who was our stupidest US president in your lifetime?
Either Bush, or Reagan after the Alzheimer’s set in.
11. What is your favorite sport to play?
Used to be softball. Now, it’s well, nothing, I guess.
To watch?
Not a specific sport, but the Maple Leafs. I like watching baseball and football too, but hockey games are shorter.
To pretend to play?
Fantasy football? Or like pretend for real?
To pretend to watch?
I either watch or I don’t.
12. Who is the best actor and/or actress living or dead?
No idea. But, I rarely like actors’ actors. I’m happier with pop culture good versus deep meaning good.
13. What question would you like to see on QotD?
Biggest lie you’ve ever been told online?
