Week of Sunday July 26, 2015 to August 1, 2015
1. What are the chances of you and your friend/family members ever attending a King Kong?
Small unless it comes close to Arkansas. Not as much vacation time built up since I switched jobs so that is a definite factor.
2. Do you use coupons at the grocery store/fast food restaurant etc.?
Do guys do this?
3. Did you ever get mad/upset with a noisy child to the point where you spoke to the parents about it (i.e. in a public place like a movie theatre/restaurant)?
Nah, I feel bad for folks with a crying kid having been in that situation myself a couple of times.
4. Tell us about your worst/best travel experience.
In 2003 my wife and I took a two week vacation and drove up to Devil's Tower in Wyoming. We then drove southwest thru Wyoming into Colorado and came back thru Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park, CO. We toured the Stanley House and stayed in Estes Park for a couple of days. Overall, it was quite possibly the most enjoyable two week vacation I've ever had. We still talk about it.
Worst travel experience would probably be the conference I drove to a few years ago and didn't realize I had somehow managed to not pack any pants. I still don't know how I managed to do this. I also didn't realize it until the next morning when i was getting ready for the conference.....did I mention I was making a Powerpoint presentation at said conference? I wore a pair of sweats and t-shirt while we were driving to the conference so I ended up wearing the same sweats, a very nice pressed Polo shirt and my dress shoes. either no one noticed or no on cared but I caught PLENTY of hell from the guys I went with...
5. If you work, are you happy at your place of employment and if so, how long do you think you will continue to work there?
This is a weird question just having changed jobs after almost 18 years in law enforcement. I don't mind the job I'm doing now, the hours are a lot better for sure. To be honest though, I miss my former co-workers a lot worse than I thought I would. I still have about 6-7 of the guys who text and call me quite a bit so I know its a two way street. They still send me derogatory texts about my mother, invite me to get togethers, etc. I usually don't attend because one thing we all use to say was you either work for the PD or you don't. I'm on the other side of that now and it's weird.
6. Pick one (if you had a choice) - win the lottery and share it with family/friends or give most of it to charity once all your most important needs are met?
Give most of it to charity after I'm done. My family is pretty much a train wreck...lol
7. Would you find it hard to delete your Facebook account? If you don't have an account, skip this question or write n/a.
No Facebook account, not now, not ever.
8. What kind of undies do you wear? Knickers for those who are in NZ, Australia, Ireland, England, Scotland etc.
Just plain old boxer shorts.
9. If you are married, how long has it been and did you have a small or large wedding?
20 years next month. Small wedding with just a few friends, I had one length hair more than half way down my back in my wedding pics...hard to imagine now that I keep a buzz cut for the most part...lol
10. Do you think Stephen King is an optimist or a pessimist and what do you suppose his take on the state of humanity is?
I would have to say he's neither, just more of a realist. The good guy doesn't always win is a re-occurring theme in a lot of his books and that is about as real as life gets. I couldn't make a statement on Mr. King's state of humanity, don't know him well enough. He sure is good to his fans, I can definitely say that.
