Questions About This, That & the Other Thing

Can you believe it is Thursday Thunk time again!

My answers below...you can participate too just click {here}

1. Hypothetical question- you are in a building with famous works of art, old manuscripts of famous novels, and original sheet music from famous composers. The building is on fire and looks to be completely destroyed. Do you grab any of the famous works before fleeing, and if so what?

I would probably be ogling the manuscripts so I would grab whatever is closest to me and as many as I could carry and then run outside. Gotta be careful though older dried things burn faster!

2. In August 1969, the Manson family went on a 2 night killing spree. Do you think 40 years later they have paid for their crimes?

No I believe and eye for an eye.

3. Power Outage! What's the longest you have been without power?

Couple days, not so bad BC (before computers) now it would be difficult! LOL Can be romantic though like dh bringing home propane for the camp stove and cooking dinner together, candlelight...

4. Just bought a new tazer gun. Will you let it be tested it on you to see if it works, and how it feels to be tazered?

Hell NO but I would offer up my BIL for you to try it on :)

5. A neighbor's mail was delivered to you. In it is a magazine not wrapped in plastic. Is it ok for you to flip through it before giving it to the neighbor? Do you tell them you looked through it?

Depends on the magazine I spose if something on the cover grabbed my fancy I might look otherwise I would probably just plop it into his mailbox since it is right next to mine. If I did look I probably wouldn't say anything. If it came to the box mail I just look for our names and if something isn't I hand it right back to the clerk.

6. If I went through your purse/wallet right now, what all would I find in there?

Hand cream, kleenex, chapstick, mirror, tweezers, bandaids, library card, toothpick,Tinkerbell wallet with some change and a dollar in it and a $25 Ruby Tuesday card - anyone want to go to dinner?, my DL and Bank Card, My checkbook and keys. My cell phone is thrown in on top now too and my sunglasses since I am inside. Pretty boring LOL!

7. Have you been living under a rock?

Some days I sure think so!

A Bunch of Stupid Questions by Kimber

Welcome to the July 30th version of Thursday Thunks!

Kimber, the number 14 (we pronounce this Fauxteen LOL!) and the color of life.
(2 questions by Ber, figure out which 2.) I have no clue.

1. You are in an enclosed space with a group of friends. Elevator, auto, small room, etc.. You fart and it really stinks. Do you take credit for it or do you play along with the questioning of who did it?

are they good friends?

2. You are locked in a room sitting at a desk with just a piece of paper and a purple crayon. What do you draw?

Why the purple people eater of course!

3. Do you ever pee in the shower?

No that is what the potty is for! The radio recently had this discussion - it was quite the topic.

4. Have you bought, sold or got rid of something on Craigslist?

No I can't figure that list out.

5. You are in a convenience store. In the line in front of you is a drunk guy trying to purchase more alcohol. The cashier tells him they cannot sell it to him because he is obviously already intoxicated. He gets belligerent. The cashier is scared. What do you do?

call the cops

6. While shopping for produce, do you "sample" before you buy (i.e. grapes)?

no unless at the outdoor market where they are giving you a sample of it trying to entice you to buy. I admit I have got hooked on some fruits this way :)

7. You are walking down the street and there is a toddler sitting on a bench by themselves in front of a store - do you just keep walking?

Nooooooooo help the little one!

8. Have you looked up an old friend and/or lover online?

Yes but I am afraid to "talk" to them cause we parted on not good terms, she knows where I am too and has "talked" with my dd so I know she knows I am there too...

9. You are nearly in a car/auto accident. Do you freak out, follow the person who nearly caused it & talk to them or just keep going?

I just keep going probably muttering or yelling in my car but oh no never follow them, I sat on a jury for a road rage case and it was horrific what the person did to the other driver...oh no never chase and confront!

God's Messenger

A United States Marine was taking some college courses between assignments. He had completed 20 missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. One of the courses had a professor who was an avowed atheist, and a member of the ACLU.

One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, GOD if you are real then I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 min. The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, 'Here I am GOD, I'm still waiting.'

It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him; knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold.. The Marine went back to his se at and sat there, silently.

The other students were shocked and stunned, and sat there looking on in silence. The professor eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, 'What in the world is the matter with you? 'Why did you do that?' The Marine calmly replied, 'GOD was too busy today protecting America 's soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid stuff and act like an idiot. So He sent me.'

The classroom erupted in cheers
