[RainbowsandUnicorns]

1. Other than a basketball player, name someone who is/was one of your favorite Olympic athletes not named Bruce Jenner (or Caitlyn Jenner).

2. Assuming you use deodorant/anti perspirant, what brand do you uses and do you use a stick/solid, roll on/gel/liquid, or spray?

3. Name one of your favorite bands/musicians that you are confident 95% of other people would not say is their favorite band/musician.

4. Yesterday my day at work SUCKED. On a scale of 1-100 (1 being the worst day at work ever and 100 being the best day at work ever) it was a 9. Name one thing that happened to you in the past 10 work days that went wrong or wasn't good.

1. Michael Phelps…well, Michael Phelps’s bong
2. Gel
3. Medeski Martin and Wood

5. Chocolate glazed or chocolate peanut glazed or something like that. But I like bread far more, pretty much anything fresh

[pdub]

1. I don’t watch much Olympics. Phelps maybe. I have some memories of watching Michael Johnson.
2. Old Spice solid
3. Explosions In The Sky
4. One of my clients I was working on a project fee for and had gone silent on their project for over a year now finally wants to finish
5. Apple Cider

[jhawks99]

1) Cassius Clay
2) Unscented spray
3) Susan Tedeschi
4) I missed a continuing ed class and had to scramble to finish it
5) I don't really eat sweets so I'll talk bread. I used to work at the Cornucopia in LFK. they had their own bakery and made several kinds of bread. My favorite was the herb onion. Just great stuff, I try to reproduce it but without much luck.

[Back2Lawrence]

1. Jamaican Bobsled Team
2. Degree Spray of some sort
3. Stick Figure
4. I had to
5. Wheatfields of many varieties

[TDub]

1. Carl Lewis and Usain Bolt
2. old spice solid, gel is sticky and nasty
3. Zapp and Roger
4. my guys didn't prep the wood trim before they painted like I told them to. It peeled off woth painters tape because they're idiots. now I have to prep and repaint all the trim in a house that otherwise would be done. Which means, now instead of getting paid today....I have to waste more money on hours to fix it and payment delayed until complete. Why don't people listen? it's almost like I half know what I'm doing some of the time.
5. simple maple bar

[KUTradition]

1) going back to the first olympian i remember, i’ll go with Mary Lou Retton (shout out to 1984)

2) Old Spice original stick

3) Citizen Cope

4) one of our pups tweaked her hip while camping (pretty nice when that’s the worst that’s happened in the last 10 days)

5) donut - boston cream or glazed chocolate cake, depending on the mood; bread - my own “artisan” roasted hatch green chili bread; color - green

[zsn]

1. Carl Lewis (in my lifetime); Tommie Smith and John Carlos. Otherwise, Jesse Owens.

2. Old Spice stick - lavender or sandalwood

3. Warren Zeevon

4. Nothing

5. Maple glazed cruller

[DeletedUser]

1. Usain Bolt.

2. Old spice.

3. Whitney Houston.

4. Nothing negative comes to mind.

[Shirley]

1. Bob Mathias
2. Old Spice Stick Original Classic
3. Graham Parker
4. I've had to take the last 3 days off my bike after neglecting to pre-apply udder butter before the last ride, and I'm paying for it. (Something I never had to think about when riding in KC and all over the west.)
5. Glazed

If I haven't learned anything else from this thread, at least I now know it would never work between me and Zen, considering my aversion to floral fragrances.

I'm stunned that so many of you use Old Spice. When I see it on the shelves at the store with all the other more exotically characterized names and brands, it makes me feel old to buy something that hasn't changed for 60-70 years or more? There's no doubt in my mind that I've used Old Spice all my life because my father did, but especially because it still reminds me of him.

[KUTradition]

man, how about that Old Spice?

[Back2Lawrence]

Old spice is virtually unrecognizable from when I knew my dad to use it.

Who can forget those unforgettably shaped bottles?

man

memories…

[DrPepper]

1. too many to name
2. Lume, solid
3. Sara Bareilles
4. I saw the end of the rainbow and discovered there is no gold there
5. glazed twist. So light and airy. But really, anything from Paula's Donuts https://paulasdonuts.com/

[twocoach]

1. Olympics junkie here so lots come to mind. Michael Phelps first and foremost.
2. Dove aluminum free or Every Man Jack. Had to go away from those with aluminum as it was burning my skin.
3. Lynyrd Skynyrd, love me some classic southern rock when I need to get some work done.
4. My ADHD/Depression/Anxiety combo has been pretty spun up lately. Trying to talk myself out of leaving my wife. Don't want to follow it up with any details, please, so let's just leave that there.
5. Maple bar then any number of others. I don't say no to many flavors of donuts.

[TDub]

who doesn't love lynyrd skynyrd?

#4 Damn! Sorry about that. Unless you feel leaving her is the best for you.
My mental stuff has been all over the place lately. To the point where I am losing my shit at work and a lot of people have been witnessing it. I am very tempted to take next week off from work as "sick" (mental health) days.

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Just realized I never answered my questions yesterday. I only responded to twocoach's (coincidently he answered on ToniKucoc day) but I did read everyone else's responses and there were some good ones!

1. Usain Bolt is a great answer. Michael Phelps is a great answer. The other answers were great answers.
My sister has a good friend who was in the Summer Olympics (Kayaking) and my buddy's son was in the Winter Olympics (free style skiing) but I am going to go with Herb Brooks.

2, Spray and I switch off between Right Guard Sport "Powder Dry" scent and Dove Men "Cool" scent.

3. My guess is any band/musician I named wouldn't be 95% of other people's favorite band/musican so it was kind of trick question. I don't have "favorites" but for the sake of naming someone right now I will go with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

4. Pretty much everything. To name one thing, a legal and compliance issue that still isn't resolved.

5. As I said in #3, I don't have favorites. Right now, give me a vanilla frosted Dunkin Donuts donut to go with my cup of coffee and I'll be good.
