Just click on the button.....

 

1. My real life friends came through with another question this week so thank you real life friends. When you've eaten in a restaurant do you complete their comment card? Do you take online surveys highlighted at the bottom of store receipts?

Sometimes I do fill out their comment card and I do take the online surveys for a few stores. With Hallmark you get $2.00 off your next purchase. Hey that's a free card!!!

2. The (US) ban on women in combat was lifted at the end of January. It will probably be next year before specifics are worked out, but its been reported over 200,000 front line positions will eventually open up to women. Your thoughts?
I believe if a woman wants to be a soldier on the front line she has a right to do so. Honestly I don't want anyone on the front line fighting a war.

3. In looking back at all the blog posts you've written, what's your favorite post title?
Okay....I looked at all 889 posts I have written and how do you pick a favorite. Just recently I did this one: MARCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING but then these were kind of interesting too.... 

Holy Crap Batman! 
11 ( missing 6) + 21 = 32 total (s/b 38)
TUEWENSDAY 
LIKE BUYING CONDOMS maybe the answer is WEDNESDAY HODGEPODGE!

4. What's worse-overly permissive parents or overly protective parents? Did your own parents lean more to the permissive or the protective category? If you're a parent where do you fall?

I believe an overly protective parent is worse because kids will rebel against you most of the time. My parents were permissive. I wanted to have guidelines for my children yet my husband had a father that was very strict and he wanted our children to have more freedom. We never agreed on this! Nothing wrong with continually giving them instructions for their protection.

5. Candlelight-moonlight-firelight-bright lights in the big city...which one's your favorite?

Definitely moonlight!

6. Dr. Seuss's birthday was celebrated on Saturday. What's a favorite book you remember (Seuss or otherwise) from your own childhood? Did books play an important role in your growing up years? Explain.
I don't remember a favorite from my childhood. Books were not a big part of my growing up years. Neither of my parents were readers. I actually didn't start reading myself until I was 32 and going through a divorce. Danielle Steel was what I read, I couldn't read enough romance novels. My therapist who was helping me said "Debby, real life is not that way." I was broken and wanted to wish for that knight and shinning armor!

7. To quote Dr. Seuss...

"From there to here, and here to there, funny things are everywhere."

from One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish

 

Share something funny you've recently read, seen or heard.
Who is the Guilty One? Got this in an email. You have to go and watch this. It is soooooo funny! 

8. Insert your own random thought here.

While you are reading this I am either on my way or getting ready to leave for Las Vegas depending on your time zone. Mark has some business in Vegas so we are just going up for one night which is a fun getaway for me! I won't be around reading your Wednesday Hodgepodge posts today. Hopefully I can catch up later.  Hope you have a wonderful day......
