    @nossmf, your reading speed and comprehension, especially, are beyond impressive!

    If you were stranded on a desert island, what 3 items would you make sure to have with you?

    That question deserves a well thought out answer. Being stranded on a desert island is no laughing matter! 😂
    After roughly three hours contemplating it, I think I would choose the following:
    • a whisk
    • a thimble
    • a P-38 can opener
    You never know when one of the above would come in handy.

    Are there such things as ghosts, or goblins, or snipe?

    A snipe is any of about 26 wading bird species in three genera in the family Scolopacidae. They are characterized by a very long, slender bill. Wikipedia said its true and everything on Wiki is factual. :* As to goblins. They are the ones who fix your shoes when they are broken, so of course they are real. And Ghosts. I've seen them on TV and in movies . That's proof they are real.

    Are there Unicorns?

    Do you think that La Niña is going to be bad this year? Or is it El Niño? 🤔

    In this day and age of gender equality/confusion, asking the question La Nina/El Nino is offensive to some (especially those of us who don't have the little squiggle button on our keyboards). The preferred question is "Do you think that The Wind is going to be bad this year?" And my answer is yes, after my chili night to start the new year, the wind is going to be VERY bad indeed. You may want to start running for your lives now. Go ahead, I'll give you a 2-day head start.

    They claim pork is like poison to our bodies, is that actually true?

    That is an absolute lie. If pork affected us it would first show up in your brain. Oink. And as that hasn't happened, oink , it goes without saying its wrong. Bacon is another good example, oink, millions eat it with no side effects, oink

    Hop in Mr. Peabody's Wayback Machine and visit any time in history that you desire. Just be aware that in doing so, you may end up in an episode of Peabody's Improbable History.

    Use or lose it, as the saying goes! I keep charged up by doing an Iron Man Triathlon each day. If I'm still feeling a bit tired after that, downing a 5 lb bag of sugar and four six packs of energy drinks gets my heart racing again.

    My couch (or recliner). My couch allows me to enjoy prolonged workouts. It provides benefits such as the following: finger dexterity, from working the remote or the keyboard; visual acuity, from watching one screen or another; relaxation, which is an important element of staying healthy.

    Do you have a secret recipe in your family, handed down from generation to generation? Will you share?
  • sandejones

    This recipe comes from a family cookbook handed down from my great grandmother. It is road kill stew.

    Road Kill Stew recipe:
    Works for deer, beef, lamb, goat, possum, rabbits, hares. Not hedgehogs

    First make sure your road kill is actually dead. If it shows signs of life, give it mouth to mouth resuscitation and send it on its way. If it is badly injured, help it on its way to the big hunting ground in the sky. Road kill that has been run over by motor vehicles is the best as it is tenderized. Even better if it has been run over more than once. Take home and skin. If weather is cooler you can leave hanging for a day to gain maximum flavor.

    Ingredients: 1-2 lbs. meat cut into small chunks, 1 can diced tomatoes or tomato sauce, 1 big onion – diced, 4 – 6 potatoes, couple large carrots, 1 parsnip, handfull of pearl barley, salt, pepper, thyme, bay leaf, garlic, red wine if you have any left after celebrations.

    Brown the meat in a skillet on high heat. put into stewpot, add quarter cup red wine, half the onion, and enough water to cover it all. Cover pot and cook for an hour on low heat. Dice up the veggies (Parsnips use in moderation, They have an aggressive flavor that will overwhelm the stew if you use to much. Use 1 small one.)

    After an hour or so, add the veggies and spices. Add enough water to cover. Cook until the veggies start to get soft, then add the handful of barley – keep an eye on moisture/thickness – adjust as needed. Use fresh rain water as chlorinated water will ruin the taste.

    Have you run over a deer, the put it in the boot/trunk to put in freezer later?

    Of course! That's the only way to hunt deer in my opinion, because you don't have to go through the hassle of getting a hunting license and a deer tag, and the biggest advantage is that it's always deer season!
    The down side is damage to your vehicle if you're not properly equipped, so I've invested in a heavy duty two-ton dual rear-wheel pickup with a massive front bumper that can hit anything on the road with no damage. It's also handy when some slow driver won't let me pass, and I can just bump them into the ditch and get to my destination with no further delay.

    How do you deal with slow drivers who are not letting you get where you need to go quickly enough?

    Slow drivers have bothered me for a long time, so I recently purchased a Go Go Gadget Extendo Car. It's exactly what I needed to get to my destination quickly, avoiding slow drivers along the way.

    That Extendo Car is a great idea! Not only do you get where you're going really quickly, but it makes cornering a breeze due to its high center of gravity!

    I have actually been traveling the globe, starting in Tonga, to celebrate the new year in each time zone. I'll finish up on Howland Island, a place I've never visited, so that should be particularly interesting. Apart from that my day has been pretty ordinary.

    When is the best time to go water skiing in Antarctica? Or alternatively, to sail board around South Georgia Island?

    Given the rate of global warming, you should be able to water ski in Antarctica here in just a few months. Should give you enough time to take those lessons you've been putting off. Wouldn't want to accidentally ski over the head of a poor little penguin, bless their hearts.
