Round 3 - 2nd try - for you Terry........

1. I like a challenge. Otherwise I wouldn't be trying this again!
2. I'm not fond of the color red, but my car is red.
3. I've never been on a roller coaster - and never will.
4. I love ferris wheels - the higher and bigger - the better.
5. I love seafood - especially lobster.
6. I caught a barracuda while on a charter fishing boat trip in FL.
7. I eat Frosted Mini Wheats for breakfast every day, if I don't eat a cooked breakfast.
8. I was water skiing and far from shore when a sudden storm came up. There was lightening crashing all around me, and I thought I'd get hit before the boat ever made it to safety. I was never so scared in my life!!!
9. I was born and raised in New England, but never learned to snow ski.
10. I'm a NASCAR fan but haven't followed it faithfully since my man Rusty retired.
11. I've never been to a NASCAR race, and I only live about 10 miles from the Dover track.
12. I'm not a real baseball fan and only follow it to harrass my brother. I keep up with the Phillies and he's a dyed-in-the-wool Marlins fan. I was visiting him last year when the Phillies won the World Series. Revenge was soooo sweet!
13. I prefer to watch the winter olympics, rather than the summer olympics.
14. I have broken all of these in the past 15 years: 2 toes, foot, both wrists, hip, and neck (that was almost a killer)!
15. I wore glasses from the time I was 9, up until last year. I had to have cataract surgery on both eyes, and corrective lenses were implanted. No more glasses except for reading. Yippee!!!
16. I've been told that I sometimes have a weird sense of humor.
17. I am paranoid of driving (or riding) thru tunnels that run under water.
18. My 2nd son was born almost 3 weeks late and weighed 9 lbs. I looked like I swallow a huge watermelon. He's still a big guy!
19. I like to decorate with photos of family and pets. One whole wall in the family room is nothing but pictures.
20. I love lead crystal, blown glass, and etched glass objects.
21. I love to people watch, but I don't stare. It's the most fun at the beach. The sights you see when you don't have a camera!!!

22. I only ever quit one job - and that was after working one day at it!!! The boss was a total arse and I probably would have gotten myself fired if I didn't quit first!
23. The longest job I had was for 21 years. I'd still be there if I hadn't had to retire 3 years ago.
24. I used to be an avid reader of Stephen King novels.
25. I love the old 60's folk music like Peter, Paul & Mary, Gordon Lightfoot, etc.
26. I have a ton of old albums I can't play because I no longer have a turntable. I need to get one!
27. I like t.v. shows like are on Discovery, History Channel, NatGeo, and the like. I don't watch too much of the network channels with the exception of the news.
28. I really miss my brother who died too young.

It worked this time! Don't expect round 4.
