Friday's Feast - a buffet for your brain

Friday's Feast - a buffet for your brain

Appetizer
Where do you plan to go on vacation this year, or where would you want to go?
Not sure what whether we are going to fit much more in...though Frances and I will do lots of exploring when she gets over here
My current dream destination is Galapagos Islands...bring on the big turtles

Soup
What color is your bedroom? If you could redecorated it, what would you change?
The new one is a horrible fake flesh color, the sort they use for artificial limbs...think it might be changing this weekend...we're both thinking celedon green...though M might not have actually used the word celedon and thinks I'm making it up!

Salad
Do you have a bumper sticker on your vehicle? What does it say?
Oh yes...it's a little NZ flag with the word New Zealand...just in case people think I'm from OZ...which would be a terrible mistake to make!
It's partly a reaction to the intense (and must be respected for being proud really) patriotism the US shows, and partly to make it easy to find my beige SUV in the car park amongst all the other beige SUV's


Main CourseWhat's the worst pain you've ever been in?
Waiting the the Spanish ER with a broken arm, nose and 11 stitches in my eyebrow for the orthopedic doctor, who was operating on some poor women who had just gotten of the plane, slipped on the marble in the airport and broken both hips...there is ALWAYS someone else worse off than you.
And Carron and Linda...will always be grateful you were there too!

Dessert
Who is your favorite celebrity? What do they do that inspires you?
Hmnnnn...this is surprisingly tough. Like Green Tuna at TunaNews, I can always think of uninspiring celebrities. I've always had a soft spot for the incredibly hairy Peter Jackson for following his dream and making the Hollywood machine work for him rather than the other way around.
And despite your politics...you've got to take your hat off to Helen Clark for 'getting stuck in' and doing for women in politics what Hillary Clinton can only dream of
