It's usually around 20 or 25 minutes. Sometimes longer. Sometimes shorter. Depends on the traffic on 121.

ALTERNATE QUESTION (since apparently that one sucked)

what's the hardest thing you've ever done physically?

[ifihadahifi]

Because I have kids, I have found half-eaten chicken nuggets, hambrugers, sandwiches and french fries. French fries are really bad because they work themselves down into little nooks and crannies.

But the worst was my daughter had a bad habit of leaving half bottles of milk in the car. We left for a week during the summer and a bottle sat in there and got nice and stinky from me when I returned.

And the other question, the hardest thing physically.... maybe two-a-days for football back in high school... or hauling hay on a cattle ranch. Both were extremely tough to get through.

Do you remember your very first day of school?

[Irock]

Not my *very* first day, but I do vaguely remember my first day of *public* school after my parents moved us out of my first school.

How many times did your family move while you were growing up?

i "zero" rock

[monet2u]

my mom actually moved a lot. I can recall living in 8 different places as a child. as an adult I've moved 4 times myself. Yikes that's a lot of moving. which is whyl I bought my house so I don't ever have to move again.



Is there someplace you want to move to?

[roach]

retirementville.

could you handle doing nothing for a living?

[zenmomma]

Yes, as long as I had enough money to survive... but I wouldn't do nothing, I'd have to do some kind of volunteer work.

How do you like your coffee? Do you have a crazy Starbucks order?

chelsea or liverpool in the champions league?

[eebs]

spooky just as i read that the pvr decided to start recording csi and summat else and the channel turned itself off.... time to pop next door.

but i reckon extra time and penalties next week, as chelsea match liverpool's 1.0. wish there was some controversy to liven this match up.

stars to win the stanley cup?

[roach]

that would be a good thing, watched them a couple times in this series and they seem to be playing well.

fc dallas to the cup!?!

[aquaphase]

a pipedream, but something to hope for.


Brewsers over the Blaze tonight? (Roach and mine's 6v6 soccer team)

[roach]

if trying were victories! but yes, I do believe that if we're able to score we should be able to win this one. in theory.

is it go time?

[mere1975]

Oh, it's GO time, mister!

Do you think I'll be one of the 9,000 people laid off from my company this quarter?

Subquestion: should I hope for a sweet, sweet severance package to end my blah employment there?
Or should I hope to save my job for a while longer in these trying economic times, where I have interviewed for 4 other jobs, only to have 3 of them dissolve altogether ("not hiring a communications manager after all") and me not make it to second round for the only graphic design job that sounded promising?
