Saturday 9: Him or Me -- What's It Gonna Be? (1967)
1)
In this song, a man pleads with his girlfriend to make up her mind. Do you consider yourself decisive? With few exceptions, yes, I am decisive.
Since this song is all about either/or, we're using that as our theme this Saturday ...
2) Choose a condiment: Catsup or mustard? Catsup
3) Choose a sci-fi series: Star Wars or Star Trek? I don't really like sci-fi, but if forced to watch one, it would be Trek.
4) Choose your spy: James Bond or Jason Bourne? The Bourne saga has been a little too dark. I like young Pierce Brosnan in a tux, so I'll go with Bond. James Bond.
5) Choose your winter sport: Football or hockey? Hockey
6) Choose your breakfast: Pancakes or waffles? Waffles
7) Choose your side: French fries or potato chips? Now this one is hard. Usually fries, but sometimes I get such an urge for a nice, thin chip ...
8) Choose your chore: Washing dishes or doing laundry? I hate them both. But I'm actually very good at laundry, so I'll go with that one.
9) Choose your nextdoor neighbors: Munsters or Addams Family? Maybe Gomez would invite me over to play with his trains.
By the way, week's song reminds me of how much I like Mark Lindsay's voice. When I was a kid, he was insanely popular in 16 Magazine and I judged him on the body, bounce and shine of his ponytail. Turns out the Raiders were better than I remembered. So I'm gonna listen to them again right now.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
t the moment I'm reading The Handmaid's Tale, so this group fit right into that melange.
ReplyDeleteI like all the Bond films, and agree that Bourne is a little too dark. And, it certainly would be fun to play trains with Gomez.
Now, I was thinking about living next door to the Munsters would be a little less creepy (and possibly explosive) than the Addams'.
ReplyDeleteAdams or Munsters is a hard choice. Both are good in their own niche, yet, both would make for creepy neighbors.
ReplyDeleteI am tickled that all the Bond lovers said Bond. James Bond. Such a universal code/joke.
ReplyDeleteGuess I didn't know about the trains, but that makes me like Gomez even more!
ReplyDeleteSomehow, I've always thought of fries as "real" food, and potato chips as "junk" food. Which is ridiculous, I know.
Happy Saturday!
