You guys are very good. Within 8 hours of posting yesterday’s movie quotes meme, over half of the quotes were completed and Jake and Alli hadn’t even taken a crack at them yet. I added an additional bonus quote for two reasons.
So, while there is now one additional quote, there are only 5 left. Take a look…a couple of them are kind of difficult.
I lifted this from Average Jane, who lifted it from someone else (who I’m sure lifted it from someone else). Still, it’s awesome and given how much I like movies, I thought it would be fun for a Friday. Here are the rules of the meme:
These are the rules, people!
On to the quotes!
Appetizer
What does the color dark green make you think of?
It reminds me of back in the early days of Abercrombie & Fitch when it was an outdoorsy store and not a hipster teen store. This was back when I used to work there. The carpets were dark green plaid. Then it went horribly awry.
Soup
How many cousins do you have?
First cousins? I think 12.
Salad
On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest, how honest are you?
I’m more honest now than I used to be. We had a friend in college who used to lie just for fun. She would convince people that she was the Winter Carnival Princess or something like that. I’d put myself at a 9.
Main Course
Name something that is truly free.
Happiness. It’s a choice and it doesn’t cost anything.
Dessert
Using the letters in the word SPRING, write a sentence.
Shane prays regularly in normal grandeur. Speaking of prayer, I’m preaching on Sunday at my home congregation. Prayers would be appreciated.
Feast on these: Emaw, Logtar, Bea, Chimpotle
My brief blogging exile will be explained in due time. Much blogging to come soon.
Appetizer
Given the choice, would you prefer to live in the country or in the city?
It really would depend on the city. There is a part of me that has always wanted to live in NYC just so I could say I’ve done it, but after visiting some friends who live in the unpopulated area between Gardner and Olathe, it was really peaceful. And I’m all about peace.
Soup
Who is the cutest kid you know?
My niece Ireland. Duh.
Salad
Fill in the blank: I couldn’t believe it when I heard ___________.
that Taylor Hicks won American Idol. Seriously. That guy was terrible.
Main Course
If you could star in a commercial for one of your favorite products, which one would you want to advertise?
iPod or something in the Mac realm.
Dessert
What type(s) of vitamins and/or supplements do you take on a regular basis?
Multivitamin, Fish Oil, Co Q-10, B-Complex.
I found out about the Friday Feast via Chimpotle originally. But I feel like linking Logtar today.
Appetizer
On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 as highest), how much do you like your own handwriting?
I have the uncanny ability to make my writing more masculine or feminine at a whim. I have mad handwriting skillz. Also, back when I expected to be a famous athlete and expected to be signing jerseys and whatnot all the time, I perfected my signature. My signature is awesome. It looks like the signature of someone who is famous. You should probably ask for my autograph sometime.
Soup
Do you prefer baths or showers?
The problem with baths is that the water gets cold and tubs are never large enough to accommodate my large…frame. Huge tubs and one of those immersion temperature controls (like they use for molecular gastronomy) – I could really get into baths (get it?). But I don’t think they make immersion cookers that large so I almost never take them.
Salad
What was the last bad movie you watched?
Sweeney Todd. That movie was well-acted and really really bad.
Main Course
Name something you are addicted to and describe how it affects your life.
Chipotle. Alli and I can’t really stop, which makes it very difficult to lose weight. We are certain that there are addictive chemicals in it that make us crave it fortnightly.
Dessert
Which instrument is your favorite to listen to?
It’s a tossup between acoustic guitar and piano. I think that the sitar is a beautiful instrument, but only in the right setting. Acoustic guitar and piano work nearly everywhere.
Appetizer
If you could be any current celebrity for one whole week, who would you want to be?
I’d like to be someone that could play an instrument or two. John Mayer or John Legend or someone like that.
Soup
On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being highest), how much do you enjoy talking on the phone?
I like talking in person a lot. Over the phone…now that I have a Jawbone, it’s much easier. I would say that on the average, I’d rate my PTE (phone talking enjoyment) at about a 6.
Salad
Name a charitable organization to which you have donated (or would like to).
Most recently, I donated to Heifer International with the help of all of YOU.
Main Course
What is a food you like so much you could eat it every single day for a month?
Cheeseburgers. That’s why this whole “no red meat until Memorial Day” sucks so much. I like pizza. And Chipotle too.
Dessert
Have you or anyone in your family had the flu this year?
Alli had it for about a week and I almost got it but my immune system eats flu viruses the same way that I eat Chipotle.
Appetizer
Who was the last person you hugged?
My wife. Every day.
Soup
Share a beauty or grooming trick or tip with us.
Washing your hair everyday is stupid. I probably wash my hair twice per week and that’s why it looks SO. GOOD.
Salad
What does the color yellow make you think of?
My wife’s painting in our living room.
Main Course
If you were to make your living as a photographer, what subject would your pictures revolve around?
Sports. I was a sports photographer for my high school year book and I even won an award! (It’s a MAJOR AWARD!) I always enjoyed taking pictures of sports. Capturing that perfect moment. It’s way easier now with digital cameras that can shoot continuously.
Dessert
What was the longest book you ever read?
Outside of textbooks (which I never read cover-to-cover anyway), I read The Historian 2 years ago. 656 pages. I think that’s the longest.
Appetizer
Have you ever played a practical joke on anyone? If so, what did you do and who was your victim?
Yes. Many. Next.
Soup
What do your salt and pepper shakers look like?
They are multi-colored and match our crazy multi-colored kitchen. They are a standard salt and pepper shaker shape.
Salad
Where is the next place you plan to visit (on vacation or business)?
I will be off to N’awlins in April for a work conference. Next trip after that will be Jamaica in June for the bro’s wedding.
Main Course
What kind of lotion or cream do you use to keep your hands from getting too dry?
I’m kind of a girl when it comes to this. I have some Pink Grapefruit anti-bacterial Bath & Body Works lotion on my desk. I like the smell.
Dessert
Make up a dessert, tell us its ingredients, and give it a name.
We tried to recreate something we had at Brett and Sarah’s the other night this week. Basically, it’s a cookie crust with Starbucks java chip ice cream, cool whip and toffee bits on top. I like to call it BEST THING EVER.
Appetizer
What is your favorite kind of cereal?
For a long time, I would have told you Lucky Charms. But over the course of my life, I keep coming back to Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Cinnamon Life.
Soup
When was the last time you purchased something for your home, what was it, and in which room did it go?
I bought 2 kits to fix my two 6-year-old toilets that run. I’ve already fixed one other one in the house.
Salad
What is the funniest commercial you’ve ever seen?
I particularly like the new Monster.com one right now where they are holding back the sun. That one is funny, if only for the great execution of the ad.
Main Course
Make up a name for a company by using a spice and an animal (example: Cinnamon Monkey).
Froggarlic. It’s good for your heart, but you have to watch yourself crossing the street.
Dessert
Fill in the blank: I haven’t ______ since ______.
been to the movies, a month ago (to change this weekend!)
