cheddar X OK.  ryan inspired me to do cheddar x today: 2. What was your favorite cartoon growing up? What's your favorite cartoon now? One time, two older kids were discussing the finer points of "Rabbit of Seville" and I tried to turn the subject to Thundarr the Barbarian because that was my favorite show.  They just gave me a pained look and got away from me.  Currently, my favorite cartoon is Arthur.  Its great when they throw in a joke for adults now and then. 3. What is your best way to save money? Buying second hand clothes and not paying for parking at work.  I have to walk 1/2 mile from my car some days but it saves $30.00 per month 4. What was your most frivolous purchase in the last couple of months? When I am weak and in the wrong place, I buy legos.  Last week went to Cub foods and bought a lego designer kit for $6.99.  This won't seem frivolous until you consider that we have plastic trash bags in our basement full of legos. 5.   What word should be banished from use forever:   I would be happy if the City Pages would ban the use of the phrase "Vagina Dente"  which they use with every time there is anything shaped like a hole in any movie or play.  (Example:  Boba Fett falls into a 'Vagina Dente')  Sometimes a hole with teeth really is just a hole with teeth  They also use the word "panopticon" way too often.  6. What is the strangest thing about someone that has attracted you? (I.e. the way someone walked, the way they chewed, along those lines).  7.  Most memorable new years eve:   1. Do you have a pet name for your significant other? If so, how did it come about? Her real friends call her  'das bitch' 12:54:13 PM    comment []
