Far East Cynic

My contribution to the meme…..

Keeping the chain moving from Savannah: “the latest meme in blogville. the twist is that after i answer her [very good] questions, i get to ask 10 NEW questions and tag another set of bloggers!

1. How many countries have you traveled to? ( Travel to means at least an overnight stay. Does not have to be exact.)

2. What is the best place you ever visited?

3. What was the worst place you have ever been-and would you go back?

4.  If you could change one thing, and only one thing, in the world to make it a better place, what would it be?

5. Who would you rather sleep with? Men: Tonya Harding or Nancy Kerrigan? (When they were in their figure skating battle). Women: Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert? Explain.

6. What is the worst thing to happen to the country you hold a passport for in the last 50 years?

7.  Do you view someone that you know, or know of as a “hero”? If so, what makes this individual so special?

8. If you could be born again would choose to be a different sex to what you are?

9. What is your favorite alcoholic drink? If you say,  “I don’t drink”-STOP NOW. Just hang your head in shame.

10.  What is your favorite magazine?

Now to tag six people:

Curtis-I’ll post it for you.

ja ne!

  1. This was more difficult than one might think, but did prove to be a good workout for the grey matter. The least you could do is provide a cold comestible for those of us who partake……..or even a cup of tea.

  2. Thank you. My fingers are on the blink this week. As I stand up and fall down and hit the furniture really really hard I am thankful again and again that I bought soft stuff, except for the end tables I bought in Pakistan 30 years ago. Those suckers are deadly.

    1. How many countries have you traveled to? ( Travel to means at least an overnight stay. Does not have to be exact.)

    55

    2. What is the best place you ever visited?

    Del Mar

    3. What was the worst place you have ever been-and would you go back?

    Djibouti and no.

    4. If you could change one thing, and only one thing, in the world to make it a better place, what would it be?

    The absolute extermination of those that think they’re Palestinian.

    5. Who would you rather sleep with? Men: Tonya Harding or Nancy Kerrigan? (When they were in their figure skating battle). Women: Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert? Explain.

    Silly question

    6. What is the worst thing to happen to the country you hold a passport for in the last 50 years?

    9/11

    7. Do you view someone that you know, or know of as a “hero”? If so, what makes this individual so special?

    Dad. Battery commander in the 101st in a forgotten war. And my dad.

    8. If you could be born again would choose to be a different sex to what you are?

    I don’t know.

    9. What is your favorite alcoholic drink? If you say, ”I don’t drink”-STOP NOW. Just hang your head in shame.

    Black and Tan but one must leave the house for that.

    10. What is your favorite magazine?

    4 years ago I went to get my guts opened up at Balboa Medical Center and read the Economist in the waiting room. Most certainly the last time I ever read a magazine. Twas an interesting article on Pashtun.

    So, Economist.

  3. Loon,

    I think you get a by on this one and answer on your own website. Since our host doesn’t have a clue that I have my own website he offered me the chance to answer and posted it here.

  4. Thank you for answering, Curtis. Thought for a moment that perhaps I had misread part of the “instructions”. However, World Cup or no World Cup he could still offer us a cup of tea.

  5. If you have your own URL-then tell us! Then I will add a link to it.

    Loon you did as the instructions asked-I did not think Curtis had a place to publish.
