I've found a new meme to pass the time away...
1. When was the last time you were sick, and what ailed you?
I honestly can't remember the last time I was sick. I probably just had a cold...
2. Do you wear glasses or contacts to correct your vision? If so, for how long?
I'm a bit far-sighted, have been for most of my life. I'm supposed to wear glasses for reading, but the last time I got a decent pair from the eye doctor was 16 years ago. I don't need glasses, I NEED LONGER ARMS!!!
3. A stray dog was found wandering in our neighborhood, which is rare. He was so thin you can see his ribs, spine, and hipbones. We took him in and are searching for the owner, although I really don't want to give him back due to his condition. What would you do if you found the owner of this dog after taking him in?
I wouldn't bother looking for that son of a bitch. He mistreated the dog. The dog would just be mine. If said owner showed up and tried to take the pooch back, he'd have a fight on his hands. WITH ME!
4. After putting up "found dog" posters all over, how long would you wait to hear from the old owners before giving him to a new home?
A couple of weeks would be more than sufficient if the dog was well cared for. In this case...well...see my previous answer.
5. Would you take the dog to the vet and spend your own money, or would you take him/her to the animal shelter first?
Since it has already been determined that I would be keeping the dog, YES, I'd take him to the vet.
6. At this point in your life, if someone offered you a free young dog/cat of a breed/mix that you wanted, would you take it?
There is always room in my home and my heart for another pet...
7. Switching gears... a 10-yr. old boy in Texas asked his uncle why Saddam had a noose around his neck after seeing a news feed loop on a spanish-speaking news channel. The uncle explained they were going kill him by hanging, and the boy asked if that's how you kill "bad people." The uncle answered 'yes' and the boy was found later with a bedsheet around his neck hanging from his top bunk. People are saying that he 'mimicked' the hanging; I think he killed himself purposefully. Do you think his death was a suicide or an accident?
The boy obviously had issues of which no one was aware. The circumstances seem to indicate that his death was a suicide.
8. A bride in Austria jokingly answered "no" to the question of "do you take this man," causing the official to call off the wedding immediately. Not even the sobbing pleadings of the bride could prompt the official to continue with the wedding. The couple will have to wait 2.5 months before they can marry again. Do you think this was too harsh, that the woman got what she deserved for larking about during such a serious ceremony ... or perhaps she should thank her lucky stars and run for the hills with some hot czech nationals?
If she really wanted to be married to that man, she never would have joked in such a manner. Running for the hills with some hot Czech nationals sounds like a good plan to me!
