Quote of the day for yesterday:
D.S. and I were discussing how, when we pause for more than two seconds on the x-ray, passengers will often start trying to tell us what it is we're looking at. Keep in mind that they can't see the image we're looking at, so they're totally guessing. Oftentimes they'll say something like, "Tell me what it looks like and I'll tell you what it is."
D.S. said he always has this impulse to say, "Well... it looks like a really huge dildo, but I'm sure you wouldn't have anything like that in there."
Okay, I guess I'm going to have to do that poll that's been going around, because I just stretched out my left hand and hit something. Everyone else has been posting that if they stretch out their left hand they touch only air.
1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:
Book, book, book... oh, wait, there's one under my chair. Oh dear. Line 4 seems to be in ... Spanish? I don't know. "Immense quae non utilitate carent."
2: Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?

eor and myself.
3: What is the last thing you watched on TV?
A DVD of Futurama. But of actual TV... um. Not sure. I think I watched "Malcom In The Middle" around a month or more ago.
4: WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what time it is.
11:30PM
5: Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?
11:20PM
6: With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
The occasional thump from the upstairs neighbors.
7: When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
Coming home from work at 8:30PM - walked from the car.
8: Before you came to this website, what did you look at?
An LJ comments discussion about Sgt Preston withcamwyn
9: What are you wearing?
I'm in my PJs.:) Um, blue and yellow plaid pants and an extra-large Florida t-shirt with rainbow colored beach chairs and umbrellas.
10: Did you dream last night?
Certainly, but damned if I can recall what.
11: When did you last laugh?
Probably about an hour ago, shortly beforeeor left for work - he always makes me laugh.:)
12: What is on the walls of the room you are in?
wallpaper with billions and billions of tiny flowers on it.
13: Seen anything weird lately?
Um. hm. I actually see lots of odd things at work, but can't think of a one at the moment. Yesterday I searched a girl's bag and she had one of those old fashioned alarm clocks with the bells on top, only it was pink. She also had her take out food in a plastic bag sort of stuffed into her carry on bag. The weird part about that was she was Thai and it was Pad Thai.
14: What is the last film you saw?
"Taking Lives" - Caw wanted to see it because it had Angelina Jolie.
16: If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?
I finally figured that out just the day before I first saw this poll. I want to own a major television network. I think that would be the most effective way to influence people's ideas about the world.
17: Tell me something about you that I don't know:
I was awarded a small scholarship grant for college by my high school, and I never claimed it.
18: If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
Give everyone the gift of perfect empathy so they could be more tolerant of others.
19: Do you like to dance?
Like to? It's more like a compulsion - I can't stop myself.
20: George Bush: is he really doing Dick Cheney?
Oh probably, but I really don't want to imagine such a disgusting thing. It's not the act, it's the actors.
21a: Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?:
I'm not going to have any kids, but, hm. Leonus Theodosia.
21b: Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?:
No clue. Maybe Timothy Lee.
22: Would you ever consider living abroad?:
Consider it all the time, especially with the Shrub in office.
