Ah, Bonnie, I love you. :-)

So how many people know who Theodor Geisel is?

I was always humored by the motto "The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on the list."

Good answers!

Very funny! I was a big fan of MAD magazine growing up. I especially liked "The lighter side of ..." feature they had. I'm not sure I want to be considered one of you "heroines" though ha ha.

Sorry to hear that I am one of your least favorite characters in history. :D

But I agree with your favorite food and drink!

You're my type of woman Bonnie, because I love your sense of humor, in answering some of those questions. 'Spanks, and Thanks'.

A long time ago I used to climb radio masts.
Mostly to fit new aerials or make repairs.
Sometimes I changed the light bulbs!
Emley Moor is the tallest freestanding mast in the UK at 1084 feet, and I have climbed to the top and changed the light bulbs. Amazing view from up there.

My heroes are the paramedics who get called out after an accident.
