When you read it in your mind, is it "chiver" like driver, or "chiver" like giver?

aww.....I made it into a question!

for all the places I've ever used the screen name, I've never been asked which way to say it until I got here. I say it like shiver.


to catch up a little :
coffee or tea - yes. herbal tea only, though.
2013 calendar - yup, just need to put it up
On Top of Spaghetti - the first verse, sure
crisper drawers - nothing, I was away a few days and need to hit the grocery store tonight
fave gemstone - my birthstone, sapphire
breakfast - today, just coffee. I overslept b/c my damn phone turned itself (and the alarm) off some time overnight
windows - um, 9 regular, one round at the entry, and a sliding glass door for the patio
can I sew - not well, and I don't have a machine. I repair hems well enough by hand, I guess.
favorite fruit - anything but pineapple or banana
TVs - 2 in my house
do I garden - not anymore, I'd be afraid my idiot neighbor would poison what I grew. I used to grow fresh herbs for cooking
computers - 1 laptop plus my work one when it comes home


Question: what is the expected high temp where you are today?

[constanz22]

This is a really fun thread, but, can I make a suggestion to modify it a bit? I'd love to see more than one person's answer to each question. Could we maybe have everyone answer the same question for a set time (an hour? I don't know...) and then have the person that posts closest to the next hour start a new question?

[NancysSummerSip]

Question: what is the expected high temp where you are today?

78 degrees. Neener, neener on the rest of you.

Question: are you off your New Year's Resolution diet yet?

[Iggy aka IG]

No just started/restarted.

Would you ever try snowboarding and/or skateboarding?

[Green Eyed Lady]

Tried snowboarding. Sucked at it. Fell so hard, I had to dig the ice out of my ear.

Coffee or tea?

[Apple]

For this one, I really like how it flows and eveyone can ask something. However, I was thinking of starting another thread (after the upgrade) that is kind of like Molly's "question of the day" she had going at first. It could be one question asked by someone every day, or a couple questions, or several questions asked at the beginning of the week. Anyway, that was my thought, we can go with majority if more people want it changed here...

I do really like how people from "other boards" have come and visited our cozy little corner!!

[Apple]

Coffee or tea? Coffee, with creamer AND sugar

Do you like honey? (I hated it, but now use it a lot)

[chiver78]

no, and my dad always forced a teaspoon of it on me when I was sick. so now I always associate honey with being sick.

do you like brussels sprouts?

No! Ew.

Planning a vacation this year?

[chiver78]

yes, ma'am - I'll be cruising the last week of Feb. nothing else is on the books yet, but I'm sure there will be more.

what is your guilty pleasure?

[Deleted]

Jelly Beans...shhh don't tell.

When was the last time you sang out loud?

[Green Eyed Lady]

This morning in the shower.

Have you ever committed a small crime?

[Apple]

Small crime? Yes, speeding. If that doesn't count, I did drink alchohol a few times before I was 21 (but didn't drink more than a few sips--it affects me way too much, and dad would have killed me if I got messed up).

Do you like horror movies?

[NomoreDramaQ1015]

Depends on the horror movie. I can't stand movies like Saw, those types of movies are referred to as "slasher porn". But I enjoy psychological thrillers like Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? Last horror movie I saw/liked was My Bloody Valentine, it kept you guessing all the way to the end.

Do you like chick flicks?

[Chocolate Lover]

I'll answer a question from page one that I don't think anyone answered: I'm watching the National Championship game next week and I'm not rooting for ND

Like honey, hate brussel sprouts, never snow boarded/whatever probably won't since I have none nearby , like some horror and same with chick flicks.

[mrsdutt]

Have I sang? Today
Horror movies? Never
Honey? yum
Brussel sprouts? Yes with ranch dressing and croutons. Again, yum
Chick flicks? Naw, too many years watching action movies with DH. He cured me LOL
Vacation? My whole life is a vacation.
Guilty pleasure? Dark chocolate caramels with sea salt on top.
Crime? LOL You have to know me to know how funny this is!

How many boy/girl friends did you have in hs?

[❤ mollymouser ❤]

I don't recall ~ not many. But plenty of friend friends.

What color was the towel you used last?

[motherto2]

towel - dark brown. And I want to answer the first car I ever owned - orange Pinto station wagon with wood grain sides! I was stylin

Agree or disagree with the fiscal cliff deal?

[Sum Dum Gai]

Agree or disagree with the fiscal cliff deal?

It's not a horrible deal. A permanent fix for AMT is pretty sweet.

If you had a $1,000 to blow, what would you buy with it?

[motherto2]

I'd pay off my cc from Christmas and DD's graduation celebration .

Do you own an ipad?

[chiver78]

no iPad
$1000 to just blow would probably come with me to the casino, where I would enjoy myself trying to turn it into more
fiscal cliff - I haven't had a chance to read up on what actually went through, I reserve comment at this time lol...
last towel - white, like all in my house
first car - the "silver bullet" - a 1985 Pontiac Sunbird, silver with red racing stripes!

are you watching the Sugar Bowl tonight?

[Artemis Windsong]

No, I am aggravated with football being on so much.

Do you play bridge?

[Deleted]

No bridge.

Favorite Monty Python movie?

[chiver78]

I've never actually seen a Monty Python movie in full.

favorite author?

[Deleted]

Too many. David sedaris, robin McKinley for starters...

Have you ever been rock climbing?

[Apple]

Rock climbing? I haven't, but helped my son's class on a field trip (I helped teach them how to tie ropes, monitored that they were being safe, etc). It looked like a blast, I'd like to do it myself.

What is your favorite "ethnic" dish?

[motherto2]

closest thing to rock climbing for me was a rock wall on a cruise.

What is your favorite TV show?
