SURVEY! Blog version

Here's an easy, seven-question survey! (A fun experiment.)

All you have to do is copy the questions below, then post a comment, pasting the text into that box where you type your comments. Of course, you have to add your answers. I'm aware that the world is watching us here on the blog, so I've taken special care to ensure that none of the questions are too embarrasing or incriminating. He he. I'll go first to get you started:

1. What's your favorite breakfast restaurant, and why?
Maybe IHOP because the food is good and it has a fun atmosphere.

2. Name a bible story that you think would make a cool movie.
Story of Ruth

3. Name a favorite movie that you haven't named in a survey, yet.
Return to Oz. Great fantasy movie. Tic-Toc was my favorite character.

4. Did you ever get suspended in school? (You don't have to share why if it's really bad.)
Once in high school for being tardy to science class too many times. I wasn't a bad kid; I'd come in literally less than a 30 seconds after the bell rang, and the teacher would count it against me. One day he just had enough and suspended me, but my dad came to school the next morning and I was allowed back. I understand the teacher's frustration though, so I don't have any hard feelings now.

5. Share an interesting or funny story from employment you had as a teen.
When I was working at the Roses in Goldsboro, NC, a thunderstorm came through the town one afternoon, during hurricane season. It was raining very hard, and the power went out! This is back in the glory days of Roses, when they were right up there with K-Mart, so you have to picture a huge building. When things like that happen, some stores (like ours) won't let people leave, because shoplifters go on a spree pocketing things in the dark. Our manager made us run to get flashlights, then comb the aisles to direct people towards the entrance, where there's daylight and we could see everyone. Just as I'm walking around near the entrance, a couple of the ceiling tiles way up started to buckle under the pressure of water that had acumulated, and then, BOOM!--They were blasted away by the pressure, and a waterfall poured down (quite heavily i might add). Not for a few seconds, but for a couple of minutes, right over the men's clothing section. (I'm not making this up.) My poor panicked manager cried for us to get a couple of huge trash cans, like the kind you use outside, and we used those to collect as much water as we could. Ah.. Good times..

6. What's the last thing you ate?
I had two peanut butter sandwiches for lunch. No jelly because I didn't have any.

7. What's the last movie you saw?
I just saw Hitch (with Will Smith). It was HILARIOUS overall, and cleverly written. There is some language that could have been left out, as well as a couple of inappropriate (though short) scenes.
