The Thursday Threesome (04/21/05)

Posted on April 22, 2005 | Leave a comment

The Thursday Threesome is back after some technical difficulties with their Domain Name Renewal so that is the theme for today’s questions…

Onesome: Domain–Hypothetically, if you could own any domain name you wanted, what would it be and why?
McDonalds.com would be a good one, I’m sure it’s worth some $$$. But I’d like LaPointe.com or Hill.com which are family names (even lapointefamily,com or hilllfamily.com would be nice). I’d just like to get more family “stuff” on-line and that would be a good address.
Twosome: Name— Are you called by something other than your legal name? If not, have you ever had a nickname? Or done something weird with your name, to try and stand out? Like an odd spelling or a slightly different pronunciation? Or just flat out wanted to change your name? To what?

This/That – Thursday Thoughts

Posted on April 21, 2005 | Leave a comment

Pick one word from each of the following pairs.
1. Laptop or desktop computer? Laptop. Powerbook!
2. When listening to music, headphones or no headphones? No Headphones.
3. CD or mp3? CD. But MP3s or AACs are way more convenient when they are all in my iPod.
4. When watching TV, lights on or off? Off!
5. DVD or VHS? DVD.

Imagine This Hypothetical Situation…

Posted on April 20, 2005 | 1 comment

Imagine you and your co-workers are allowed to choose a new person to be in charge of your huge corporation (or even a huge non-profit). The last person in charge, while highly respected and loved, was ill for months before they passed away keeping your organization in all sorts of turmoil and doubt during all that time. Before you even start narrowing the list down, how many of you think you would choose a person who is ten to fifteen years past retirement age?

Wednesday Weird Ones

Posted on April 20, 2005 | Leave a comment
1. How long is the Ruler of the Universe?
I’m not sure, but I think each one of those tick marks are each Infinity Minus One.
2. How was cream chese invented?
Ewww… I’m sure I don’t want to know.
3. If you were sending a letter to Israel, would you write the address and zip code in English or Hebrew? Why?
The address and zip would be in Hebrew but it would say Israel in large letters at the bottom. Just like if I’m in a foriegn country I write the address in english and United States of America/USA at the bottom, they just need enough to get it to the right country. (This is assuming this is not a trick question and Hebrew is actually what they speak in Israel.)

Tori Amos Concert

Posted on April 20, 2005 | 1 comment

So I was just reading another blog (Glimpse of a Girl) and she has her review of the Tori concert and I realized I never said anything about it when I went last week! I think it was Thursday the 14th of April.

It was great!! The seats were really good, row M to the right, you always want to sit on the right at a Tori concert if you have a chance since she usually faces that way. She generally has two keyboards but plays most songs on the (baby?) grand on the right. This time was different she had four keyboards of various types and was constantly bouncing around so it offered a better view for others but the right was still the place to be… Tori Amos

Vacation – Chick Chat

Posted on April 19, 2005 | 1 comment
1. Where Do You Visit The Most On Vacation?:
Probably Florida, the Miami (pardon me, the South Beach area) and Ft. Lauderdale area. Haven’t been there in a while but it’s got sun and good roller blading. I’ve probably been to Florida the most especially counting other locations. I’ve been to Washington D.C. a lot but mostly for work. I’ve been to Chicago and Toronto more than a few times but those are usually quick trips and don’t require much planning. I’ll make Florida be my final answer!
2. What’s Your Idea Of A Dream Vacation?:
