How many ...?

re: library - cool :)

Arnold, Mister Ed, Lassie, Scout, Trigger, Rin Tin Tin, Kitty Cat, Flicka, Ruff, Ready, Flipper, Dino... many, many more.

How many times have you completely binge-watched your favorite binge-worthy show ?

and scooby-doo!

I have a rin tin tin biography. that's kinda neat.


heck tailor, im just the opposite. unless im riding my bike while watching, I tend to slow-watch everything and make any one little thing last over many hours at least, often over days, and sometimes into many months. I still have some series and seasons from this past winter that I haven't finished. about the only thing I could presently see myself doing that with would be the four matrix movies but id have to have a particular person to join me and the likelihood of that happening is reallllllllllly small. so 0 for me.

how many US presidents can you name from just their images?

27 Presidents I think...

How many times have you had to restart your router in the last month ?

hmm, i could maybe eek out something right around 27 too.

I have dial-up so i'll expand the question to mean "re-dial"----at least once a day because the connection times out, so 30 to start, but I went ~a week without it, so lets make that number 24, and then at random times during the day, seemingly for no reason, I get disconnected. lets say that happens ~15-20 times. so anywhere between 39 and 44.

how many tv girls from your youth did you have a crush on? (and who was #1 on the list?)

Lol... no idea how many. #1 ? Hmmm, prolly the pre-Mrs. Nelson.

How many times have you seen a "shooting star" ?

is that ozzie and harriet tailor?

my #1 might have been Jeannie from I dream of Jeannie but I can think of at least a half dozen others who were close seconds.

oh too many to recollect. although its really been too long since ive taken a good long look at the night sky. I do remember once being at a drive-in movie theater during some scheduled meteor shower event, it was pretty neat.

how many kinds of apples to you know?

lol... yeah right... same as your #1... no close seconds.

Apples: I know of many mac varieties through the years and Apples I, II, IIe, IIg, LISA... mac aquarium mod, iWatch, iPad, iPhone. I started with an Apple II clone in the early 80's called the Franklin ACE 1000 which I got by trading a car for (blue Geo Metro... wife had a car and I had a company car so my old Metro was redundant); it was my very first computer and I purchased like a 6" boxy monitor to go with it. In the 90's I started upgrading to macs purchased from a second hand dealer near Sacramento, prolly 5-different versions... still have some of the earlier macs including one in a closet which I've thought on occasion to turn into the aquarium mod :) I switched to windows OS machines before the colorful mac consoles came out.

How many times have you tipped the swear jar today ?

nooooo tailor, apples as food, like granny smith and all her relatives.

one, but its early, i'll provide an update on the next post.

Oh... granny smith, Washington Delicious, Cotton Candy, Pippen?, Gala, Golden Delicious, Crenshaw? (or is that a melon)... that's all off the top of my head, and Apple Hill being only 20 miles away or so.

How many different types of butterflies frequent your location ?

what's your favorite apple?

I think I made it through the day with two visits to the swear jar.

the monarchs are by far the most visible, and the ones that look like them, the viceroys. other than that, im maybe only seeing another 2-3 different kinds, and that pretty rarely, so 5ish altogether. id have to guess id need to be looking more.

how many kinds of beans in your pantry/cupboards?

apple: Golden Delicious

Jar: Kudos!

Butterflies: we haven't seen all that many either :(

Beans: 3-bean salad has three (but one of them is a red bean), chili beans, lima beams, red beans.... that's about it: 5

How many tires do you use for "landscaping", ie. lying around not on vehicles ?

I don't know if I have ever had a golden delicious one tailor. I guess there are many dozens maybe well over a hundred apple varieties. there are a few wild apple/crab apple trees in my neighborhood. a few years ago I sliced some apples up and dried them. they came out pretty good. I didn't do a lot though because the deer love them.

why thank you---usually a "swear jar" visit would come from banging my head on something, or on the 47th attempt at sending an email and having it not work!

makes ya wonder if there is a sort of natural ebb and flow to butterflies.

just one tire, but its about to be put to good use in an out of sight way.

how many times have you been to a state fair and a county fair?

I received a dozen Granny Smith apples at church 2- Sunday's ago that I'm still snacking on :) (Haven't eaten any of ours for some reason... mostly plums)

... never a State Fair, it's currently maybe 55 miles away on freeways I can't drive and usually around 100° - 110° F (37.8° - 43.3° C) Too hot, too far, too many people...

County fairs maybe 5 total (San Mateo & El Dorado (EDC) only). EDC fair is only a dozen miles away... last time I attended Paul Revere and the Raiders played circa 2002?

Same question ?

ever try apples sprinkled with just a little salt?

100 degrees! your ice cream would melt before you got to eat it.

I went once to the Minnesota state fair, and had a huge dill pickle that took me a long time to eat. and two, maybe three times (that I remember) to my county fair when I was a kid. my grandpa used to take me. i live really close to the bordering county to the east and two to the south. making trips to all the county fairs would be pretty easy.

how many more weeks until lawn mowing season is over?

No salt, thank you very much.

Oh, forgot I went to the 1962 World's Fair in Seattle with family... good and bad experience; very shortly we moved (back) to California :(

Lol... lawn mowing season doesn't exist for me; one quick weed whacking after Spring and the drought kills everything else; almost.

How many different brands of toothpaste have you tried ?
