[flamingyouth]

59. Downtown - definitely

But I find it's best to go first thing in the morning when they open (9 o'clock, which seems late to me...) on a Saturday or Sunday. Then there are parking spaces galore. :hi:

6. Hmm...

1. How many pairs of shoes do you think you have owned in your lifetime? How many do you own now?
Now, about 15. In my lifetime? No idea. I've never had more than 15 or 20 pairs of shoes at once (with maybe 5 in the "active" pile, another 5 in the "goes with one specific outfit" pile, and the rest in the "why do I own these?" pile), and I tend to keep mine forever.

10. If you could appear to be of a different ethnicity for a day, what would you choose?
No idea.

[SOteric]

22. Okay, that's a good amount of snow...

I have to wonder if you're just looking at it, or if, in your ideal world, you're building snow art on your front lawn or something.

[eyesroll]

4-6 inches is nothing here.

Winter.

SOteric's house!

9. How much snow is just the right amount?

How ever much there is already, plus more. And then, on top of that, put more. Okay, now, just one more "more", and then double it.

10. If you could appear to be of a different ethnicity for a day, what would you choose?

Japanese.

[SOteric]

24. My house?

Aww....:pals:

Though, truly, you'll find driving a convertible slightly more tedious in Seattle... I'm just sayin'.

[Rabrrrrrr]

36. I'm thinkin' it would be a week of incredible food!

To say nothing of the incredible conversation.

And, as to the convertible, perhaps if we use umbrellas, we can drive with the top down...

[Magrittes Pipe]

10. If you could appear to be of a different ethnicity for a day, what would you choose?
Italian. So I could cuss out that bastard who never gave me change for my $10 bill when all I bought was A FUCKIN' CANNOLLI without getting my ass kicked (a Mick-Kraut like myself does NOT insult an Italian at Bruno's without repercussion).

[SOteric]

27. Take it from an Italian,

even if you're not at Bruno's one does not insult an Italian without repercussion. :hi:

[Magrittes Pipe]

30. Damn!

He's really old. You think I could just kick him when nobody's looking? :shrug:

Mr. Bruno himself is on my side -- he's been looking for an excuse to kick the cannolli-scam-artists out of his bar.

[SOteric]

37. Sure, sure, go ahead...

but prepare yourself. One day, when you least expect it, the grandson of that canoli carpetbagger will appear on your doorstep to teach you the meaning of the word "vendetta."

[Magrittes Pipe]

38. *sigh*

I'm afraid I'm just not cut out for this blood feud business.

[SOteric]

43. Remind me to tell you sometime

of "The Fine Art of Torment."

[Magrittes Pipe]

46. No thank you.

I have a girlfriend.

[SOteric]

60. Oh, suck it up already...

I think of the phrase 'cynical old procrastinator' and I think, that's not bad, that actually sounds kind of fun. :pals:

[HamstersFromHell]

62. Well, others do seem to think that way...

I'm damn proud I'm as old as I am now, at age 20 I'd have never figured I'd have lived past 30. (I can remember when I was 28, one of the ladies who worked for me actually cried when she turned 30 and I couldn't understand why lol)

[Rabrrrrrr]

40. Hmmm...you say "pompous, arrogant, and detached" like it's a bad thing

:7

And I realize now that it's YOU who's always slowing me down on the country roads. :grr:

[ProfessorGAC]

45. Yeah. That Would Be Me Slowing You Down

Actually, you're probably the one who i slow down even moreso when i see you behind me. Hee-hee! I love doing that.
The Professor

1. How many pairs of shoes do you think you have owned in your lifetime? How many do you own now?
Lifetime- well over a hundred. Now? Probably around 30. I wear the same size as my daughter too and sometimes we share shoes, so add another 15 I suppose. I don't get rid of shoes unless I haven't worn them for 10 years it seems.

8. If you could take an all-expenses-paid vacation for a week to anywhere on Earth, where would you go?
Money isn't even a huge object for me at the moment. I indicated wanted to go to Las Vegas last month, but that was met with silence despite many things indicating I was far more than welcome for several months prior. Odd, but perhaps it's just all too much for the potential visitee at the moment. We'll see. In the meantime, I have a life to live.

Hmmmm.... all expenses though? I'd have to say just to take a year off of life and go all over the world.

9. How much snow is just the right amount?
none


10. If you could appear to be of a different ethnicity for a day, what would you choose?
Latin, Cuban probably. Every Cuban woman I've met was both nice and beautiful.

I may put that down in my own response.
