Monday Mission Time!

1. Suppose God grants you one miracle. Consider the world in which we live. Consider your life and family. What would you request for this miracle? Are you sure that is the best way to use it? You only get one.

Well, if the ol' I'd want a million miracles doesn't work, I guess I'd ask for something like world peace. Either that or to be uncontrollably attractive to women. It's a coin toss.

2. I believe that prayers do get answered, but I realize not everyone agrees. Have you ever had an experience where you truly believe your prayer was answered? If you don't believe in such things, how come? What is your philosophy on prayer?

Yes I have. I'm not telling.

3. Have you ever lost a pet? That is, have you ever had a pet get loose, run away or be stolen? Did you get it back? How did the loss impact your life?

No I haven't.

4. Getting together with family at the holidays is great, I just love it. Most of all I love the food. What is your favorite holiday food?

Pumpkin pie, though I'm quickly being converted to cream horns!

5. One thing I've noticed about the holidays is that no one makes Pumpkin Pie like my Grandmother. She has totally spoiled me on her recipe, I just don't like the taste of anyone else's Pumpkin Pie. Are there are dishes or desserts that someone in your family fixes better than anyone else?

Nope.

6. Since I have no brothers or sisters, I am always wondering what it would have been like. Now that I am older, it kinda stinks that I will never be an Uncle. Do you have any siblings with children? How does it make you feel to be an Aunt or an Uncle? If not, would you like to be have nieces and nephews? Would you make a good relative to them?

My sister has no children, but swears she'll have 12 one day. That is a day I'm not looking forward to.

7. I am putting together a CD of great holiday music. Do you have any suggestions of what songs (title/artist) I should include?

Fairytale of New York, the Pogues - what better song to sum up the bleakness of the season
Peace on Earth, Bing and Bowie -weird combination of voices, but a phenomenal song

BONUS: How would you feel knowin' prejudice was obsolete and all mankind danced to the same beat?

Just cause they dance don't mean they got rhythm.

Today's Comment Question: Did you see Titanic? Did Rose die at the end or was she just sleeping? I say she was just asleep and dreaming.

She's dead. I killed her.
