Friday 5 for June 24: Scattergories, Part 6

What random letter was generated by the online random-letter generator (this doesn’t really count as one of your five questions)? 

W

1. What brand or model of car, whose name begins with the letter, would you like to get?

~ Windstar. My family had a white Windstar when I was in my 20's and we drove iot down to Myrtle Beach, SC on many fabulous vacations. We lived in Dearborn Heights, MI, a city right by Detroit, so they were long driving trips that lasted a week. Great memories, great car.

2. What summer activity, whose name begins with the letter, are you looking forward to?

~ Watching the clouds roll by as I sit on my porch in beautiful weather

3. What’s an item in your desk whose name begins with the letter?

~ White Out, it's always been helpful and always will be

4. What’s something, whose name begins with the letter, that you find frightening?

~ Windstorms, dangerous extreme windstorms. My legs aren't as strong as they once were, I walk with a walker now, and walking in windstorms is soooooo not fun!

5. If you had to get a tattoo on your upper arm, what’s something whose name begins with the letter that you could live with?

~ Wizard, a really cool looking wizard

Friday 5 for March 18: Ticket to the Weekend

How many traffic tickets have you received, and what was the first?

~ The best way for me to answer this is to say "less than 10"! I've had a couple throughout the years, I can't remember the first one

What are some of the ticket stubs you’ve held onto?

~ I believe I still have my concert ticket stub from seeing Springsteen back in '85, great concert! I might still have one for a Bob Seger concert I saw too

What have you seen because someone had extra tickets?

~ I somehow received free tickets for the Detroit Renaissance Festival for free, can't remember from who or why.

I do recall I had an extra one so when I arrived at the festival with a friend, instead of selling it to somebody in the ticket line, I walked up to the last person in the line, and asked him if that was the line for tickets. He said it was and I gave it to him for free. I figured I got them for free, I may as well make somebody else's day by giving it to him for free as well. He was very happy and said he felt like he "just won first place"! I was happy to do that!

What have you won in drawings or raffles?

~ I won a Princess Di beannie baby, a basket full of dog yummies for my dog one year, and there was something I won at a work Christmas party one year but can't remember what it was -i just remember winning something and having to walk up stage before a crowd to get it!

How do you and your friends usually handle a restaurant bill?

~ We pay for our own order, usually ask for separate bills
