For this week's mission (should you decide to accept it), I want you to:
(1) Use the Facebook "Learn about Each Other" meme being passed around this week and answer the 32 questions as listed below.
(2) Tell us in a blog post of your own, in a comment to this blog post, or in a status line on Facebook or a stream post on Google Plus. Be sure to leave a link to your post in Comments on this post.
So here are my answers. I copied Randy's blue, even though I hate the HTML. I noticed that Randy's list had no 5, 27, or 28, so I looked on Facebook and discovered multiple variations of the meme (no surprise there). I found a question 5 I liked and added that, and my cousin had the question 20 I've used. So mine is actually a list of 31 questions, whereas Randy has only 29!
1. Who are you named after? I was named for my two Jewish great-grandfathers, following the Ashkenazi tradition to name children after deceased relatives. My mother used the initials: Janice is for Joyne (Gorodetsky), and Marie is for Moishe (Meckler).
2. Last time you cried? A few days ago watching a sob story on the news.
3. Do you like your handwriting? Not as much as I used to. I used to write in a beautiful cursive, but I seem to be getting sloppy in my middle age.
4. What is your favorite lunch meat? Genoa salami.
5. Spicy or sweet? Spicy, every time!
6. Longest relationship? Father, uncles, and aunts: almost 55 years.
7. Do you still have your tonsils? Yes.
8. Would you bungee jump? Hell no.
9. What is your favorite kind of cereal? Hot: Cornmeal mush with sugar and whole milk. Cold: Lucky Charms with whole milk.
10. Do you untie your shoes when you take them off? Yes, almost every time.
11. Do you think you're strong? Physically: Not really anymore (work injuries). Emotionally: Yes, most of the time.
12. Favorite ice cream? Ben & Jerry's Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz; almost anyone's Mint Chocolate Chip.
