I can’t think of any… Wait , when I was in my twenties I got an ashtray. The funny thing is that at that time I didn’t smoke.

Have you ever lied through your teeth and kept a poker face while doing so? (I’m asking because I tried to, but it didn’t work)

No, i sleep with a duvet over me which keeps my feet warm. I find the concept of wearing socks in bed a strange one.

 

What is the worst Christmas present you have received?

A friend of ours got us a gift certificate for a Chinese food place in town.  He did it a couple of years in a row, I think he was getting them for free from work or something….  the food was quite terrible.  blue-meanie  

"Please don't bring your banjo back, I know where it's been..  I wasn't hardly gone a day, when it became the scene..  Banjos!  Banjos!  All the time, I can't forget that tune..  and if I ever see another banjo, I'm going out and buy a big balloon!"

Agreed. Who wants to stand in Times Square with 15,000,000 other people and freeze your balls off just to watch a crystal ball go down? You’ve made a good choice, MMM. Just be careful of the “excessive partiers” that may be out and about.

By hook or by crook, I'll be last in this book.

I live in the middle of nowhere. Any excessive party-goers would have to navigate a mile of road outside of town or a path through the woods that is treacherous in the daytime and you know the walk never mind in the dark when drunk.

Also keeps trick or treaters out of my way at Halloween.

What if they replaced the crystal ball with a crystal Paul a-hard-days-night-paul-8 ? I’d watch that.

I think there are several Paulette’s who would enjoy watching Paul go down on New Year’s Eve. @Ahhh Girl ?

Has anyone here ever worked for Disney? 

I know a couple of people who worked in Disneyland Paris for summer, they all hated working there but the night life was great!

 i would be much happier and alot older. Ever since i joined this forum my aging process has changed. I use to age 100 Years per year. But this forum made me ageless

I Think that Rolling Stone should do a cover story of The Rolling Stones covering "Like a Rolling Stone" or if a Type of Beetle was named after The Beatles.

To be quite honest recently I’ve been feeling that this forum is addictive. Without it I would probably be writing, composing and painting much more often than I do.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, it’s a good way to get sleepy and fight my insomnia.

Chrome when on a computer. Whatever the default Android browser is when I’m on my phone. I added Chrome to my phone, but I don’t use it there.

Both Mozilla Firefox (my favorite) and Chrome for You Tube and the Forum (it’s faster).
