Comments

Raehan

1. Probably.
2. No.
3. The most convenient, or the one that delivers.
4. Only when I'm lecturing.
5. No I learned to drive late in life.

Erin

1. Yes. On Halloween.
2. I don't think so? What's Mensa?
3. Haha, I don't know...
4. No. Haha!
5. Um, no. But I want to learn.

annie

1. Have you ever worn white shoes with dark socks?
NO!
2. Without peeking, are you a member of Mensa?
No, I'm a Woman-sa.
3. What store do you purchase your secret ingredient from?
The Rare Earth.
4. Do you try to maintain eye contact during a telephone conversation?
No, I tend to pace, though, because I don't like talking on the phone.
5. Are you able to drive a stick shift?
Heck yeah! I can use a foot shifter, too.

Mamacita

1. Have you ever worn white shoes with dark socks? (No.)

2. Without peeking, are you a member of Mensa? (They would not want me, although my application would be a source of much merriment for them. IF they indeed exist. . . .)

3. What store do you purchase your secret ingredient from? (Dollar General. Their spices are 89 cents and just as good as the expensive stuff from trendy cooking stores or sites.)

4. Do you try to maintain eye contact during a telephone conversation? (No, but I gesture, and I feel I must stand right beside the phone even though it's cordless.)

5. Are you able to drive a stick shift? (Yes. There were many stops and starts (insert laugh here) but I finally figured it out. With babies in the back seat and an expired license plate.

Michael

1) As far as I can remember I've never even owned a white pair of shoes (if my mother had me in any when I was a helpless child, that's on her :-)

2) Nope

3) Albertson's

4) No, I don't really focus on anything other the conversation when I'm talking on the phone.

5) No (but then I don't care much about driving so I don't feel deprived)

Tammy

1. Have you ever worn white shoes with dark socks?

Who, me?!

2. Without peeking, are you a member of Mensa?

Somehow I don't think so. :)

3. What store do you purchase your secret ingredient from?

Now if I tell you where I get my secret ingredient, it won't be secret anymore!

4. Do you try to maintain eye contact during a telephone conversation?

Always!

5. Are you able to drive a stick shift?

Last time I tried, I almost hit my mother's garage!

Deb

1. Yes, back in high school when I thought I was being fashionable.

2. Yes

3. I have no secret ingredient - my cooking is an open book & open to sarcastic remarks!

4. Well I try to keep my eyes open unless the conversation puts me to sleep.

5. No, though I wish I could. I blame my Dad and his yelling in the car for my lack of stick shifting ability.

Shaar

1) Nope, but I regularly wear dark shoes with white socks.
2) Well, I know what Mensa is and I know what your number must be over in order to be a member, if that's all it took... I still wouldn't be a member. I don't like cliques, organized or not.
3)Xandria ;oÞ
4)I prefer to maintain eye contact by hanging up the phone.
5)Oh yeah, Baby.

christine

1. Good heavens, no.
2. Why, of course!
3. If I told you, it wouldn't be a secret, silly.

2. No.
3. Penzey's spices.
4. Hmmm...no.
5. Yup.

Phil

1. Not to the best of my recollection. I don't like white shoes and avoid wearing them whenever possible.
2. No. They said I scored to high on their entrance exam.
3. Store? Purchase? Why would I do that when there's plenty of it growing under my back deck?
4. Of course not. If I did, they might notice me incessantly rolling my eyes at them.
5. Someone OBVIOUSLY hasn't read my "100 things about me" list properly :)
