You ARE wild! You don’t fit the image of a prim and proper school ‘marm’ – sleeping in the buff. 🙂 AND you have a list of men you could marry? Well, good for you.

January 11, 2005

That is a good survey

January 11, 2005

what’s marmite?

January 11, 2005

Marmite! You HAVE to be British. No other excuse for it!

I get a kick out of the answers “us oldies” have to resort to when asked questions that are obviously aimed at youngsters. LOL! Sure does emphasize the genration gap. The depressing thing is that it was only yesterday that I was on the other side of that chasm.

January 11, 2005

I like your answers … especially the ones that indicate “not yet”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

January 11, 2005
