Notes From the WC (GUO-EW/O)
Jan 12 '04
The Bottom Line At least this W/O is tongue-in-cheek!
It seems like Ada Davis has come up with an amusing write-off called The Great Unannounced Open-Ended Write-Off. I've studiously avoided all the "All About Me" write-offs, but this one looks like fun and we haven't heard anything from Ada in a while.
1. If you had to choose, which would you rather have: herpes, a root canal, a computer virus, a colonoscopy, or a polygraph?
Another colonoscopy; at least I could lay there and watch the TV screen they put up for you. Gee, it was just like watching clouds floating by, especially when I was as high as a kite from whatever they gave me to relax. The doctor wouldn't make me a tape and I wanted to send it out for the holidays so I could share.
2. If you could go back in time and do one thing over, what would it be?
Never started this survey, but I'm a committed personage.
3. If you could only have one food item and one drink for every meal for the next month, what would they be?
Lotsa broiled rare beef tenderloins and pure clear spring water.
4. What do you usually leave in - a Huff? a Tizzy? the bed of a beat-up pickup? a High Dudgeon or a stretch limo? What?
High Dudgeon sounds like fun.
5. You open up a bottle and instead of beer, you get a jjin. Standard three wish deal. What do you wish for? (And the first person who says "World peace" will be tracked down like a dog, eviscerated, and strangled with his/her own intestines. You have been warned.)
1. I'd be about 40 years younger, in perfect health
2. Have lotsa $$$$$
3. Whirled Piece.(sorry Ada, I couldn't resist . . . sue me).
6. You just inherited/won $1 Billion. What do you do for the next 24 hours?
I can always use more cash. I'd get a lawyer, several Swiss bank accounts and move anywhere warmer that's near the water, preferably on my own island.
7. Of all of the voices in your head, which is your favorite?
Madame Blavatsky
8. If you could attend your own funeral and give the eulogy, what would you say?
Oops, whatam I doin' here?
9. Name an actor, performer, talking head, or public figure that you just can't stand.
That dreadful, smarmy woman with the sneer who pimps on TV for the US Cellular commercials.
10. You are leaving tomorrow for a 6-week stay in the 12th century. What do you pack?
A first Aid kit and a case of condoms.
11. Name something small that really annoys you.
Anything that gets under my dentures
12. What's the bravest thing you have ever done?
Stopped drinking.
13. What is the dumbest thing you have ever done?
Start drinking
14. What assumptions do people make about you that are wrong?
They think I'm shy and that I never laugh; quick, turn around, that's me you hear.
15. If you had a building named after you, what would be in it?
A libray.
16. It is the year 2024. What kind of computer are you using?
I'm not, I'm sure I'll be dead. You'll have to ask Madame B.
17. When your pet looks at you, what is it thinking?
Gee, am I'm dead, too?
18. If you were forced to move to another country, where would you go?
Paris, with my Swiss Bank accounts; I could always branch out from there.
9. Okay, 'fess up. What did you do that made it necessary to move to another country?
That pile of money I won/inherited.
20. Zen space. Make up a question and provide your own answer.
Why do I enter write-offs like this?
It was either because of Madam Blavatsky or Miss Cleo; gee, the voice is fading!
Thanks Ada, this one was fun!
