24. I always thought Michael Jordan was a boy...
25. autumn, no spring, no....

Ah-ah-ah. No "both" (re: #15). Il faut choisir entre les deux.
The thoughts of Wilson on 13 August 2005 - 20:03 Central+ + + + +
*sigh*
OK, I choose I-C-E --- C-R-E-A-M!
The thoughts of maman d'Ardith on 13 August 2005 - 21:19 Central+ + + + +
1. Bob Hope... Afraid I haven't seen much of Red Skelton. I'd probably like him if I did.
2. I haven't figured myself out on this one! I love sleeping in, but I also love seeing the world bright and fresh and thinking of what the day ahead has in store.
3. I!
4. Ignorant
5. Well, having been in Paris a few weeks ago... I'll go with Paris. It is a fantastic city!
6. Teddy
7. Abbott and Costello
8. classical or jazz--hard decision.... I think I'll go with jazz because I like to groove a tiny bit.
9. Jerry Seinfeld. Ray makes me feel uncomfortable for some reason. Maybe he is too normal?
10. NO PULP
11. big... I love the idea of a small one.. but in a big one you can go hide on a couch and read until you're ready to go home... and they are open later.
12. research paper...always the chance of a few more days
13. baked.. at least I can pretend it is healthier
14. classical
15. ice cream
16. NPR. Need I say more?
17. popcorn
18. on gals: short says to me "adventuresome! ready to go wherever!"
19. on guys: clean-shaven
20. I refuse to choose between these two. Please send them both away.
21. dirt road -- you never quite know where it will lead you
22. Swift. Got to love the humor.
23. penguins!
24. Jordan: girl
25. autumn .. winter is coming! i much prefer winter over summer, and the beautiful colors of the trees is quite a sight.
+ + + + +
1. Bob Hope... barely. He hired more versatile writers.
2. It's implied here that one must sleep?
3. The Godfather: I
4. Roundheads
5. Rome
6. Theodore
7. Laurel and Hardy--A&C were great radio comedians, but few of their films can begin to compare with L&H
8. tough choice, but the soundtrack of my life is predominantly Jazz
9. Ray
10. As a general rule, no pulp
11. Ummm... small...
12. final exam
13. fried
14. Ancient Near East

20. PASS for pity sake

You must have come up with these twenty-five, or you wouldn't be policing the answers so rigorously.

Hi, I'm Ludwhig, and apparently I need policing.
Or just a smack over the head with Wikipedia.
The thoughts of Ludwhig on 15 August 2005 - 15:46 Central+ + + + +
Oh, sure. Blame your ignorance for your inability to make decisions. I'm pretty sure you know what a bookstore is.

You know Wilson, a few comments about how the quiz sucks (even if it doesn't, as in the case of this one) would clear you of any accusations of having written it. And then, of course, you could police and no could call foul play.
Because clearly, people, Wilson policing his own quiz on his own blog is scandalous!

1. Bob Hope
The thoughts of Paigels on 13 August 2005 - 17:43 Central2. Generally, get up. I like daylight.
3. I would have to say #1, although I've never see either one of them. Originals are generally better than sequels.
4. Cavaliers - but Wilson, were you referring to the English Civil War or male ballet dancers? *grin*
5. Do I have to choose??? *sigh* Paris.
6. Theodore - teddy bears, hello!!
7. Abbott and Costello
8.Jazz
9. Seinfeld, I suppose
10. No pulp - I don't like textured drinks.
11. Small - I hope to own one someday, with nice comfy chairs, and coffee, and a kitty-cat.
12. Practically? final exam. Theoretically, research paper.
13. Fried - I'm from the south. :D
14. Classical
15. Brownie batter ice cream
16. Radio - I prefer music to silly sitcoms.
17. Candied popcorn
18. Long hair - I'm growing mine back out, actually.
19. Clean shaven - I've never been one for body hair. *shudders*
20. *growls* Evil, Wilson, truly evil. *shudders* Michael Moore? At least he makes entertaining movies.
21. Freeway - My car can't handle dirt roads.
22. Swift - though I am sick of Gulliver's Travels.
23. Penguins!!!!! *grin* I've always loved penguins!
24. I know more boy Jordans, so I guess boy.
25. Autumn colors go better with my hair.
