1. How many paperclips would it take to get to the moon?

More than I have in the junk drawer -- about three more, I would say.

2. Who is a better role model for children: Barbie or G. I. Joe? Why?

Barbie -- the bitch has everything and has never worked a day in her life. GI Joe, poor devil, has never seen civilian life and is always getting shot at or blown up. His hitch has lasted forty years and so far as we know he doesn't even have a pension. He may never even get to go to school on the GI bill at this rate. Obviously, Barbie knows how to work it.

4. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I say BORIS YELTSEN?

Unfortunately, spelling.

Disneyland. If I wasn't too thrilled by the commercial atmosphere when I was ten, the odds aren't really too good now.

These days it's aquatic frogs.

7. If you were a piece of music, what would you be?


Stevie Wonder's "Sir Duke" or a Celtic air played on the penny whistle.

Oh, for... Is this thing on? No. We're not going there.

Sage-to-olive green. It's the color of life and peace.

A lot more to someone from Newfoundland, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Brooklyn or Liverpool than it does to me.

1. How many paperclips would it take to get to the moon?
Depends on whether they're laid end to end or lying on their side. Are they clipped together? So many questions before I can answer this one...

Evil looking alcoholic with liver disease.

Too many colors could describe me, I change like the seasons.

[Brynn]

1. How many paperclips would it take to get to the moon?I can't wrap my brain around the number.

2. Who is a better role model for children: Barbie or G. I. Joe? Why?I really would prefer to ask who is the better actor: Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck? Bugs, a classically trained actor, has more style and range, but Daffy, as a Method actor, has more passion and in-the-moment spontaneity. Compared to either one of them, G.I Joe is a has-been, and Barbie is a whore.

4. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I say BORIS YELTSiN?
I would love some Russian friends. I'd like some borscht and sour cream right now. I'd like to go to St. Petersburg. I'd like to read War and Peaceand Anna Karenina again.

5. Name one famous attraction that you have been to and will NEVER go
back. Why?
Disney World. A disappointing walk over acres of crappy themed gift shops. "Russia" sucked, btw.

6. What do you collect?
Scalps. Notches on my belt. Deposits in the Long-Term Resentment Bank - all bad habits.
I do like little works of art that I can hold in my hands. Might be a better way to go.

7. If you were a piece of music, what would you be?
David Bowie's "Last Dance"

8. What is your Most embarrassing moment?
Any time I have to apologize. Each one surpasses the last.

9. Which color describes you most accurately? Why?
Someone once asked me what my favorite color combo was and I thought for a long time and finally decided on "Rust, blue, and gold." They laughed and said "By looking at your house I should have guessed." I said "what do you mean?" And they said "Look around." My tablecloth - rust, blue and gold. The quilt I was working on - rust, blue and gold. I looked at my bedspread - same. Kitchen - deep blue walls, with red and gold Van Gogh print in a frame. I was starting to get weirded out. My cat was dark orange and yellow, with a blue collar. I looked in the fish tank and saw three yellow fish and two rust-colored ones swimming in front of a blue backdrop. My husband walked in with his red hair, blue eyes, and he was wearing a yellow shirt I 'd bought him. The theme to "The Twilight Zone" started playing softly in the background.
I've since branched out and am now very fond of mandarin, periwinkle, and lemon ...

10. What does How Now Brown Cow mean?
I remember playing "Indian maidens" with the neighborhood kids and we would say that to each other to sound like Native Americans.

[Clytie]

well its friday and i finally got around to answering my own tuesday questions...lol

1. How many paperclips would it take to get to the moon?
12,500,040 (i measured end to end)
2. Who is a better role model for children: Barbie or G. I. Joe? Why?
I believe the GI Joe is. He supports his country and he is a patriot.
Barbie is unbelieveable...if a real woman was shaped like her; she'd
be 5'9" but only weigh 110 pounds. have a bust measurement of 39
inches, a waist of 18 inches, and hips of 33 inches. The chances of
meeting someone with Barbie's measurements is 1 in 100,000. Besides that
the only jobs she ever had were cheesy. teacher. flight attendant.
olympic athlete. veterinarian.

4. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I say BORIS YELTSiN?
I cant spell! (but actually what comes to mind is Gorbechev isnt that odd?)
