Oh dear - I feel so bad - was supposed to do some questions but life got in the waySo - the board is closing as of Wednesday until November 28th! Yikes - glad to see the mods will get some time off.
So tune in to your regular bat channel/bat station for the next survey which will take place on December 4th - maybe we'll all be ready for some Christmassy type questions.
Our cable channel/weather channel has started with the Xmas carols already - wow
Guess I could put that artificial tree up soon
Maybe I will get #2 son and his significant other to help!
hohoho
Well I will try to whip off 10 new questions if that is okay (I see it is now Monday, not Sunday)
So, off the cuff - here goes:
1. What age were you when you first started dating?
2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself?
3. Have you been to Mexico?
4. Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country?
5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay?
6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous?
7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work?
8. Ever been to a live hockey game?
9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc
10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish?

We call these horse chestnuts
(They grow on trees right?) They have a prickly green pod - I remember seeing them on the ground when I was quite young
They sound good, never have heard of them before. Thanks
They are my son's favorite and very rich.
I have a simple recipe if you're interested. And Neesy is correct; they're called buckeyes because they look like buckeyes from the tree. Chestnut and buckeye trees are in the same family, I think.
1. What age were you when you first started dating?
15
2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself?
Well, I am 21 years older than my husband, so I see nothing wrong with it. Just numbers.
3. Have you been to Mexico?
No. Have no desire to go either.
4. Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country?
No. I like winter.
5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay?
Yes.
6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous?
All the time.
7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work?
I don't work, so no problems for me.
8. Ever been to a live hockey game?
No. I don't like sports of any kind.
9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc
None that I recall.
10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish?
Yes.

None that I recall.
10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish?
Yes.
1. What age were you when you first started dating? 17-ish.
2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself? If you can find someone to make this life a little less of a train wreck, age shouldn't be an issue if you're both on the same page.
3. Have you been to Mexico? No.
4. Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country? I like winter a lot, so I'd rather move north to experience a real winter.
5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay? Nay.
6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous? Not a big fan of spontaneous anything.
7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work? No. Anything I've planned that far ahead of time, I'd already made arrangements to be off work.
8. Ever been to a live hockey game? Not a hockey fan.
9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc Lots of injuries over the years, broke a bunch of bones, but a broken leg broken in three different places was probably the most painful and hard to come back from. Broke two ribs which sucked majorly also. It's impossible to get comfortable with broken ribs. My twice broken ankle is the gift that keeps on giving year after year no matter how much I try to strengthen it, sometimes it will just roll completely unexpected and I'm on the ground writhing in agony before I even realize what's happened....lol. Took a rifle barrel to the nose a few years ago that made for a funny picture and some entertaining hazing from my fellow shooters.

Okay, Sandy, I will PM the recipe. I'm at work, so I will send it when I get home.Hi danie They look really good and yes I would like the recipe. PM me or put in the recipes thread. Thanks
Oh, ok, I stand corrected, lol. Your explanation makes more sense.They are my son's favorite and very rich.

1. What age were you when you first started dating? 17
2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself? I think it's nice, but that difference becomes wider the older we get. No offense to any older women, I will speak for myself ONLY. Older women have a shelf life.

10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish? NOT AT ALL. I got to watch an autopsy and I would like to be able to see other cases. If I could have been something, I would have liked to have been a forensic pathologist (and yes, this was years and years before even one TV show even touched the profession.)

Oh I wasn't correcting you. I think the actual buckeye (from the tree) got it's name because it looked like a "buck's eye."
None taken! (I'm 52 and my bf is 37!) Works GREAT for us.
