Interview the next person...

[heartnsoul]

That's a very interesting question. When I get bored or lonely, I go and find things to do that I enjoy. For instance, reading a good book, renting an inspirational movie to watch, listen to Christian music or listen to my favorite music CDs, fellowship on this forum , call up a dear friend to chat with, listen to a radio talk show that I like, watch a t.v. program that is interesting to me, play piano or spend time with my dogs and give them big hugs. I'll probably think of more, but this is what I came up with so far.

When times get tough, do you fight for what's right or are you afraid of confrontation?

 

[FlatpickingJD]

That's an interesting question you posed too. I try to stand up for what's right, but I will pick and choose my battles.

2 part question, answer the one you choose: (1) What was the one thing you set out to accomplish this year that you accomplished or (2) what was something you'd hoped to accomplish but didn't?

 

[MN John]

My goodness. I guess I accomplished starting life over. New home. New friends. New significant other. New lifestyle. New church. Lots of new things.



Where's the best place for a good burger?

 

[heartnsoul]

At home in my own backyard where the burger meat is pre-marinated with special seasonings and grilled to perfection! I'll have mine medium well.

What is the kindest thing you ever did for someone who needed his/her spirits lifted?

 

[FlatpickingJD]

That's really hard to answer, you'd have to ask someone I did something for. Maybe something as simple as talking to the lonely kids in high school.

How old were you on your first plane trip and where did you fly?

 

[MN John]

about 12. Atlanta.




Have you scuba dived?

 

[FlatpickingJD]

no, I haven't but I want to learn.

Have you ever gone deep sea fishing?

 

[heartnsoul]

Yes, but it wasn't too much fun because my husband and I went on one of those big "party" boats where lots of people get on them and we all stand side by side like packed sardines. The captain didn't stop at places where we can catch big fish. Instead, all of us caught little ones and sometimes our lines got tangled together because we stood so close to each other. My husband and I actually caught a fish at the same time. I caught a fish and then that same fish bit on my husband's line...so when we reeled the fish up, the fish had both of our lines in its mouth!! So that was my one-time experience...we're still debating about who REALLY caught the fish. I say "I" REALLY did because it ate my line first!!

We'd like to go to Key West Florida sometime and deep sea fish there. I heard it's expensive to vacation there so we would have to save up money for it. I'm not really into fishing, but I go because I know my husband enjoys fishing. After a couple of reels, I start getting into that competitive spirit to want to catch BIG fish!! I don't put bait on my line. That's a "man's" job. I just cast and reel it in. My idea of a good time is sitting around with a few good friends at dinner (or anywhere) chatting and laughing.

When it comes to vacationing, I like sight seeing and dining.

What is your favorite vacation spot?

 

[MN John]

Des Moines.




Where did you go on your last vacation?

 

[heartnsoul]

Destin, Florida.

What kind of job are you in?

 

[MMXII]

Technology for my full time job...hardware for my part time job.

Would you rather have cake or pie?

 

[MN John]

Cake.





Would you bake me a cake?

 

[heartnsoul]

Cake.

Would you bake me a cake?

Hey John, you forgot to finish your question...so I'll make up the rest of the question for you...Would you bake me a cake or buy me one?

My answer: I'm not a baker, so I'll buy you one.

Do you consider yourself a deep thinker who is a serious person?

 

[MN John]

Yes I do, but I don't take myself too seriously.





Do you have any phobias?

 

[heartnsoul]

Yes, I'm afraid of horror movies. When I was a kid, the old black & white movies of Dracula and Frankenstein scared me to death. I would be afraid to sleep sometimes after seeing those movies. I'm still that scared kid today! You will never see me watch a horror flick.

Do you have any allergies?

 

[MN John]

Yes. Pollen, dust, etc.




Do you know how far you can go on foot in 12 hours?

 

[heartnsoul]

No too far because after 10 miles or more, my feet are tired. Years ago, I walked through the Golden Gate park in California and my feet were sore for a week after that.

What's your dream car?

 

[MN John]

Chitty-chitty-bang-bang.



When did you last ride your bicycle?

 

[MN John]

Chitty-chitty-bang-bang.



When did you last ride your bicycle?

 

[FlatpickingJD]

you must really want Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang. Or an answer to the bike question . . .

It's been over 20 yrs since I rode a bike.

Have you ever climbed a mountain and, if so, which one?
