Friday Feast

Happy Friday!! Feast One Hundred & Six Appetizer Tell about a toy you remember from your childhood. Willie Waterbug. Basically, it was a 2-foot-tall plastic bug with about 12-15 bendy tubes coming out of his head. You hooked the hose up and the tubes went all wacky shooting water in every direction. I don't know if this was the original intent of the toy designer, but we mostly jumped over him, which got really good and dangerous really fast as the grass got wet. Of course, I come from the generation of Slip-n-slides with no padding or "landing zone" so there ya go. Willie was a big hit in our neighborhood, even though you got the wind knocked out of you at least once each time you played with him. Soup If you could make one thing in the world absolutely free for everyone, what would it be? I'm going to skip the predictable - food, shelter, healthcare, etc.- and go for internet access. I'd like to see Nbutu sitting in his grass hut firing up the lappie and looking up "Treating Lion Bites" on Google. Salad Approximately how many times per day do you think about your significant other? That's tough - depends on the day. Some days I get really immersed in my work and tune out everything. Most days, pretty frequently. Main Course What is something you believe in 100%? There are absolute truths. Dessert Name one thing you have done this week that you would consider a "good deed." Dang, wish this was last week, I was nicer then . . . I gave a stranger directions downtown, when the first several people she asked just shrugged and walked away.
