Curiously Strong Factoids - More About Me

I was visiting Rene's blog the other day (she is one of my fave bloggers), and I really liked her most recent post -- Curiously Strong Factoids -- , so I thought I'd go for the tag that was up for grabs. Here goes....

WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?
Yes, my uncle (my dad's brother), but I got the female version of his name, of course.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED AND WHY?
Yesterday, while driving in to work. I always cry. It's stronger than me.

DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
Yeah, I do. It’s a strange combo of half printing & half writing.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?
I can't choose, so it's a tie between hot Genoa Salami and Mortadella. Mmmmmm, yummy in my tummy.

DO YOU HAVE KIDS?
No, but I would love to.

IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?
Damn straight, I’d be my friend! Why not?!

DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT?
Blackthoughts should tell you a lot. Plus, I work with my family. Sarcasm is a survival tool.

DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS?
No. They were removed when I was 8. They almost killed me.

WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP?
I’m bungee jumping right now through my messed up life.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL?
I don’t eat cereal. Should I be eating it?

DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF?
Yes, otherwise my mom will yell at me.

DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG?
I’m stronger than I thought I was.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM?
Again, I can't choose, so it's a tie between Strawberry Vanilla or Chocolate Mint.

  2. A group of people I hang out with "virtually", have been playing a similar Q&A game for something like a year or a year and a half. It gets kind of funny at times. It's almost always very interesting.

    Let's see what I can come up with.

    PS. Where in Ita were you born (if that's not too much to ask)?

  3. Hi Jerry, Q&A....I'm looking forwad to knowing more. Yes, I was born in Italy. I don't even have a Canadian passport. Who knows, at the rate that I'm going, they may just kick me out....lol.

    Peace
    JB

  5. Well JB, there's this message board where we all "meet", chat, exchange opinions, ask for advice, play games etc...

    Q&A is one of those games. We take turns asking 5 q's each week. Some q's are very simple, trivial if you will. Some are tricky (not what's-the-square-root-of-8765,864 tricky). Some are thought provoking. The idea behind all this is to learn more about the group (since we don't get to meet irl often) and trigger some interesting discussions.

    You didn't answer my question, though: where in Italy are you from? (if that's not too personal).

    Pace e baci :)
