A meme at the end of a long day

I found this on Crazy Dust In My Coffee...she said everyone who read it should do it. I am a lemming, so here goes...keep in mind I'm in the lab at work (after hours to try and avoid the rain I might add) so some of the answers might be a bit...um...odd.

1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn on page 18 and find line 4.“Only 6% of those polled cited scientists as first or second choice of professionals to be trusted, compared to 68% who cited doctors, 45% priests, 25% solicitors and 20% police.” (from Hazardous Waste and Human Health)
2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What can you reach? There’s a preserved specimen in a jar, a photo of J and the cats...and a penguin clock with a dead battery.
3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?The 4400
4. Without looking, guess what time it is? 4:32 PM
5. Now look at the clock, what is the actual time? 4:36 PM. (woot)
6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear? The air conditioner unit.
7. When did you last step outside? 7:52 am when I got off the bus.
8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at? My e-mail
9. What are you wearing?My oh so short brown pants, beige tshirt and superstars.
10. Did you dream last night?Yes.
11. When did you last laugh? On my coffee break.
12. What is on the walls of the room you are in?A picture of me in a sari, the periodic table, a calendar, a picture of a mouse and a print of the painting called "The Alchemist", the eye wash station and my lab permit.
13. Seen anything weird lately? Last night my cat was staring at something and growling at it...only there was nothing there. A bit spooky actually.
14. What do you think of this quiz? You know me, I love quizzes.
15. What is the last film you saw? XMen 3.
16. If you became a multimillionaire overnight, what would you buy? A new eavestrough so my basement would stop filling with water when it rains (which lately is every day...) . Other than that, get my family whatever they need, and a couch for my living room. THe rest I'd probably give away to research and charity after I paid off my house.
17. Tell me something about you that I dunno. I discovered to day that I am turning into my mother...sigh. I dropped something and made a Marge Simpson like growl of irritation just like she does...shudder.
18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do? Everyone would have a home and the food they needed to get by.
19. Do you like to dance? To the right music, oh yes. I didn't used to though.
20. George Bush.#43. I don't understand...
21. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her? Robin
22. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him? Max
23. Would you ever consider living abroad? Yes
24. What do you want GOD to say to you when you reach the pearly gates? welcome home.
25. Five (5) people who must also do this meme in their journal. Well I hate to dictate, so I'll just say that if Magnus, Thoth, Pete and maybe Cindi and Betty were to do this I'd be oh so amused. Trent could too in the comments...inquiring minds want to know.

Max? Child abuser.

What?
My grandpa's name was Max. Well, Maxwell actually.
I love the name...what's so bad about Maxwell?

Magnus said...

Just don't buy him a silver hammer or introduce him to the spy genre.

Why is Max a name for a child abuser, Magnus. Somebody tell me?

I love the obscurity of the book quote. Well, I guess you work and your reading filter into each other, don't they. You probably have even less spare time that I do.

X-Men III. How was it. Tell me. Tell us...

Curious. Haven't seen it yet. Am very tempted to. Although people just accuse it of being a souless brand name knockoff of the previous two installments.

Cunning Plans
