Saturday 9 – Gimme Three Steps, W33K3ND FUNNI3S and a Birthday

written by Thom - March 12th, 2010 at 3:57 pm

It’s Saturday 9 time. I would like to send a big Mahalo to

sam+sigof Saturday 9 for hosting this meme. It’s great fun. To read the other participants entries or to participate yourself, click the link just mentioned or the picture above. The rules are simple:

Welcome to Saturday 9. What they’ve committed to their readers is that they will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks they do “random questions,” so-to-speak. They encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because they don’t have any rules, it is your choice. they hate rules. They love memes, however, and here is today’s meme!

Saturday 9 – Gimme Three Steps

1. Are you the type of person who jumps into new ventures or do you prefer baby steps? Depends upon the venture and I’m most likely having to sign something neither jump or take baby steps.

2. Who do you feel believes in you the most? Myself of course

3. When was the last time you were on a stage? As in play, or like solid rocket booster, of life? Can you be more specific?

4. Tell us about the worst boss you ever had. Manager at Arctic Circle when I was growing up. Whoever it was made me have to clean up and do pots and pans. Thank goodness for Madge. Oh and for those of you that don’t know Arctic Circle was like a Jack-In-The-Box

5. If the NCAA Men’s or Women’s Final Four basketball tournament was played in your hometown arena or within easy driving distance from where you live, would you try to attend one the three games? I’d go to them all. A little word check is appropriate in the question by the way

6. Of all the clothes you own, what do you feel most comfortable wearing, and why? Shorts and T-Shirt and it should be obvious why. But for those that don’t know I live in Hawai’i.

7. On what television show—either past or present—would you like to make to make a guest appearance, and what role would you play? Hollywood Squares and I’d like to be in one of the squares. Would match my personality. LOL

8. St. Patrick’s Day is on Wednesday March 17th. Do you celebrate and wear green? Drink Green Beer? Ignore it? Yes. No. No.

9. If a leprechaun told you that you could have any amount of money from his pot of gold but it had to be a specified amount for a specified item, how much would you ask for and what would it be for? How much does the world cost? I wanna be King of the World!

Thanks so much for joining us again at Saturday: 9. As always, feel free to come back, see who has participated and comment on their posts. In fact sometimes, if you want to read & comment on everyone’s responses, you might want to check back again tomorrow. But it is not a rule. We haven’t any rules here. Join us on next Saturday for another version of Saturday: 9, “Just A Silly Meme on a Saturday!” Enjoy your weekend!


Shakira at YOU ARE NEVER ALONE! has decided to do a meme called W33K3ND FUNNI3S that I thought would be pretty fun to do. From her blog comes the following:

“I love to laugh and I am sure most of you do too. So, I have decided to start a WEEKEND FUNNIES meme.”

To get more instructions for this meme you can CLICK HERE. Since I usually post a joke Monday through Friday I thought this is a good way to include one for the weekend. Thanks Shakira for hosting this. Here is my entry for this week. I hope you enjoy!

NEW WINE FOR SENIORS

British Columbia vintners in the Okanagan Valley area, which primarily produce Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio wines, have developed a new hybrid grape that acts as an anti-diuretic. It is expected to reduce the number of trips older people have to make to the bathroom during the night. The new wine will be marketed as:

PINO MORE

    I would buy a non-alcoholic version of Pino More for the whole family. The first thing I did after leaving the bus on my son’s kindergarten trip was finding a toilet. Too bad that all women toilets were full. So, I took my son by the hand and went to the men’s toilet ;)
