• FRIDAY FIVE
  (Sorry I’m so late. I’ve been struggling to set up my first DSL connection all day. Of course, I would pick the day they’re down for maintenance most of it. You cannot believe how frustrating it’s been to call Earthlink about 20 different times. Now that it works though it’s making me hyperventilate. How did I ever live without this?!!)
  1. Appetizer
  Make up a word and give us its definition.
  Peacemogrify – Impeach Bush and vote in Jon Stewart as President while sending invitations to a Peace Conference to be held in New York City at the site of the Twin Towers and invite all foreign heads of state.
  2. Soup
  What is currently your favorite song?
  Nuevos Senoritas – by Indigo Girls
  3. Salad
  What’s at the top of your Christmas wish list this year?
  A warm interaction between the various feisty members of my immediate family whom I adore.
  4. Main Course
  Name a scent that reminds you of someone special in your life.
  Emeraude – reminds me of my long-ago ex-mother-in-law who at the time was the epitome of class and who wore it and so it became my lifelong favorite cologne.
  5. Dessert
  Who is someone on television that you feel probably shouldn’t be, and why?
  Anyone on Fox TV.
