Stale Feast
The old Friday Five was my favorite everybody answer the same question thing, but the creator of it ran out of steam and bandwidth. The new Friday Feast looks like a good contender for that status, so I'll have a go at it even tho I didn't discover it till this morning. I found it at Para-bellum, which in turn I found this morning via Joanie.
Appetizer
Who is your favorite news anchor/reporter? Why?
I don't remember having a favorite even back when I watched television as a source of news. Last ones I paid any attention to were David and Chet.
Soup
Name 3 foods that are currently in your freezer.
Sliced Pepperoni - we bought a 5 pound at the Samuel Society and split it up.
Dim Sum Dumplings - I steam them sometimes for a Sunday morning treat
Gumbo Blend Vegetables - to be stewed with green tomatoes and garlic.
Salad
If you were to have the opportunity to name a new town or city, what would you call it?
As an armchair model railroader I have plenty of these on tap. My two favorites are Effigy and Absentia. Guess which one gets the court house.
Main Course
What will most likely be the next book you read?
The one on the top of the current to-be-read stack. Bolt of Fate - Benjamin Franklin and his Electric Kite Hoax by Tom Tucker.
Dessert
What's the first thing you notice about the opposite gender?
Presence, size and direction of motion. Thirty plus years of monogamy has left me less inclined to, um, evaluate.
