My OperaIs There Anybody Out There?
Thursday, July 21, 2011 2:19:16 AM
Despite the Vegas sized number at the top of this page of mine that proudly boasts.... (wait for it, wait for it)....that 102284 people have visited my collection of online ramblings and audio clips........I got the idea while cycling home today that this page must pretty much have zero audience at all these days .
No great shock at all seeing as I barely post anything regular......and lets be honest,... the quality of posts I make are never going to find themselves walking the red carpet with Cameron Diaz pouting just to the left!!
"Is there anybody (still) out there"?.......I thought to myself!
"How will I find out"?....I pondered........... (Be careful with this one at home folks.....asking yourself questions is one thing.......Its when you start to get answers back that you need to worry about it)
So I thinks to myself.....Why dont I post 10 simple questions?.....Then just sit back, scratch my chin thoughtfully, and wait for my invisible army of followers to respond......in their own time....and in their own special way.
P.S. When providing your answers, please try not to use the words FUCK, SHIT, BUGGER, BASTARD, PRICK WANKER, ARSEHOLE etc etc.......or the C word.....such a bad word that I cant even bring myself to type it out.......My daughter will probably read this and I dont want her picking up any bad habits..So watch it with the fucking swearing...The girl is only 8 fuckin years old for goodness sake!!
10 RANDOM QUESTIONS
Q1: What time of day is it as you answer this question??, and where in the world are you???? +++ Example: As I type this, it is 2:43AM, Netherlands time (Central Europe Time).
Q2: What drink (if any) do you have in your glass or cup (mug) as you type this? (I have a small glass with a cold beer)
Q3: Do you like your hair the way it is at the moment?.......or have you been having a little think about a change (cut) ?
(I only ask this one cause Im gonna crop mine before we go camping in France next week
Q4: Which of these two everyday things happened to you most recently.....
Did you.......A Tell somebody in your life that you LOVE THEM?
Or............B Did somebody in your life tell you that THEY love YOU?
Q5: What was the first thing you had to eat today??
Q6: If your partner, love of your life etc etc, made it very clear they didnt like your life long best friend...........Would you tell your best friend?
Q7: Do you own a gun?? .......(that you can LEGALLY use to defend your property) (RAVO........You dont have to answer this one, Sir)
This question came up over a chat with me beer friends.... here in the Netherlands, owning a gun for personal, or any other kind of protection, is against the law.
Now....I am in no way a violent person, or in any way gun crazy..........but I have always wanted to try out a 357 Magnum.......JUST BECAUSE........Can I blame Clint Eastwood?? ... Who knows?....But I shudder at the thought of the dangerous trigger happy lunatic I could turn into with a Dirty Harry sized cannon in my little Scottish hands
So the other day me best friend and I are talking about home security here in The Hague, political capital of The Netherlands....very famous city etc etc, and Im telling him that I keep a claw hammer under my bed for ....yup...."home security"........He laughs at me and asks me "Why the fuck do you keep a claw hammer under the bed"? ..."Well..says me .."because we live in The Netherlands and they wont let me have a 357 Magnum"!!
Q8: When was the last time you cried?
Q9: On a scale of 1-10..1 being the lowest...How much do you care about what other people think about you?
Q10: And finally....... if you are still reading this.........Send me a link to the very last thing you read online before taking part in my silly quiz??
This is what I read.....http://freewestmemphis3.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=259:july-10th-2011&catid=38:letters-from-damien&Itemid=89
If there is ANYBODY OUT THERE.......thank you so much for your time!!
Till the next time friends

Ravo. I expected nothing less.....I am guessing that my claw hammer for home protection would be seen as a girls weapon in your part of the world

As slow as I am in the Opera world theses days, I still have the time to see what UR up to.
No answers to questions because I must get on with drilling.
Good to see you though!
Warmest regards to you and yours...............

I was asked to update this piece of software. I didn't even know I had it installed
