You know, you're probably right. Too many questions. I borrowed it from another blog, I think maybe I'll edit it to make it fewer. Maybe that will attract more participation.

ReplyDeleteGee drofen, just saw this! Sorry I missed it. I don't have time right now, but I'll try to come back later to play. But this is how I've pictured you: About 6'2, 190, kind of baby face, and sweet smile. One word: commited.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm not reading any of the above comments so they don't influence my answers.
ReplyDelete01. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it. I like your drop back and punt comment so I christen thee Punt.
02. Describe what you think I might look like. I found your blog on the same day that I found a blog of another father (through cake wrecks) and his profile picture is linked in my head to this blog because of the time proximity. I don't have the link to his blog here at my in-laws house so I'll have to show you later. Although I don't think you'll be pleased. His youngest kid is 16 so he's probably quite a bit older than you.
05. What was your first impression? You communicate a lot for a guy.
07. What do you think my biggest weakness is?
Hmmmm, I this is taking too long to think about so I'll pass.
08. What would you cook for me if I came to dinner?
Something vegetarian, but there really isn't much of that in my repertoire.
09. What makes me happy?
The funny things your kids do.
14. Given one freebie question that I had to answer honestly, what would you ask? Do you think your families relationship with food is too regimented?
17. Describe me in one word. Witty
19. Do you feel that you could talk to me about anything and I would listen? Probably, although I'd like to hear how your wife would answer that question.
20. Are you going to put this on your blog and see what I say about you? Ummm, I don't think I want to be this vulnerable on my blog.
I don't know to whom to attribute the quote in your title. First guess would be Winston Churchill.
@Heather--close, but off by about 70 lbs, I'm flattered though! Haha!
ReplyDelete@Curdie--Thanks for the comment. In answer to your question, perhaps. But the food supply in this country is woefully nutrient poor and sinisterly (is that a word?) dangerous. One needs to be careful.
Good guess on the quote, it does sound like something Churchill might say. It's actually from Paradise Lost by John Milton.
I think it's funny that we both gave you a "sports" nickname and I don't recall you ever posting about sports.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to follow up on question 14. I didn't mean to imply that I have a problem with what you eat. I think it's great that your family is vegetarian. I actually love your mom's view of food. I was thinking more of the "rules" like no seconds until you eat more salad, etc.
I probably shouldn't have mentioned it. I guess I just kind of think that when we try to keep a strangle-hold on something in our life it ends up strangling us.
Along those same lines, do you remember when I said that I expected a counter-attack? Well, it showed up about 30 minutes later and it had more to do with my comment about your eating habits on this post rather than the other.
I'm not sure that made sense, but my comments are usually way too long...so I'll stop.
