Friday Spies Play Along Version

This week, BTQ is taking questions from the readers and making everyone answer.

1. From Janie Q: "How about your favorite tv show when you were a kid, and why hasn't it been remade into a movie, or if it has, how was that movie, or maybe it shouldn't be remade at all?"

See, I can't answer this question because I didn't have a tv when I was growing up. That's right, no tv.

However, when I was all growed up I got pregnant (imagine! who knew?) and was put on bed rest for three (3!) months. Ye gods. There were only so many books my husband could lug home from the library, and regular daytime tv makes me retch, but I discovered one of those cheapie channels that had reruns of ancient shows for a couple of hours in the afternoon. We had this tiny black and white tv that someone had given us, then we splurged on a tv at a garage sale or something for around $25.

Anyway, in about 3 months I felt I had filled a certain gap in my knowledge of pop culture. At least I can now identify Gilligan's Island, I Dream of Jeannie, and Bewitched. I think Bewitched was my favorite, because I so want to wiggle my nose and have those blasted dishes washed.

Was it remade into a movie? No idea.

2. Stag asks: "Tell us about your favorite vacation or your fav place to go on vacation."

Welcome back, Stag! My mom's family had a cottage on a river in the back of beyond. We would go there for a week most summers; no radio, no tv (like that was anything new, see above), no neighbors. Just us, a pile of games, and the river. It was fantastic. I learned to fish and clean fish but never did learn to like eating fish. It was a time to be lazy, watch the river rise when it rained the whole week, get some time with my dad who otherwise was usually pretty occupied.

I love travel, can't wait to get back to Paris, and enjoy adventures; for pure relaxation, however, it's hard to beat a week on the water.


3. Soup inquires: "Are you a fan of Get Fuzzy?"

Get Fuzzy is sometimes the only reason I get up in the morning. Dang kids won't bring the paper to me. Useless.


4. Sebastian Haff (a BTQ fan) has a burning desire to know: "[Which] celebrities [do] you think are most likely to pose in Playboy and why[?]"

Er. Um. Not something to which I've given much thought. Also, a little hard for me to say who has already done it. For instance, the obvious would be Brittany Spears, but surely she's already posed? Or perhaps the new and slimmed down Kirstie Alley? Nothing there I'd want to see, but that's just me.

However, I wouldn't mind seeing... him, him, or him.


5. Energy Spatula gets to the heart of the matter with the final question for the week: "Why don't you write about which one [Fitz-Hume or Milbarge] is a huge liar?"

Hmm. How would I possibly know? Would it be Fitz, with his barrage of salsas? Or Milbarge the Mysterious? Wait, why can't they both be huge liars? Is there not room enough in this blogging world of ours for 2 huge liars?

Okay, there you go. My answers to 5 more random questions.

Ha! You've never asked us to bring you the paper in bed... and besides, could you actually even see it enough to read it without your contacts?
Anywho, I also wish I could wiggle my nose and the dishes would be done... along with the rest of the house... ugh.

Bewitched was my favorite too. I loved that nose! I think I saw it is going to be a summer release movie with Nicole Kidman?

[kristine]

Yep, Bewitched is out sometime this summer with Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell. It looks pretty interesting, actually.

And I LOVED Bewitched also. Loved, loved, loved.

[Fitz-Hume]

Sounds like such an awesome vacation spot!

Go Boy! We couldn't be more proud. Now, how about a recent picture???
