1.
a. Typically no.
b. Typically once a week.

2. Trading floor CBOE

3. Too hard to answer because I really don't care. If I have to choose without giving it too much thought...
favorite - Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens / least favorite - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce
P.S. I don't dislike Taylor Swift and I don't dislike Travis Kelce, as a couple - I don't care for them. If they are happy (and they seem to be), I say a sincere - good for them.

4. 2. Joyful Life

5. In order of how I like the names for him...
a. Buddy
b. Dude
g. Petey
d. Marcus
h. Ralph
f. Elon
e. Giligan
j. Billy
c. Shithead
i. Issac

1) a) Mrs. 99 usually makes the bed. IDGAF about it.
b) Once every couple of weeks
2) I stopped to get gas on the way to work and was running a little late. I just pulled into the parking lot as Johnny Dare announced a small, private plane had crashed into one of the towers.
3) I'm not all that invested in any of them. Tay and Trav is kinda cool and it pisses off old, white guys. Least? None of them, why would I disapprove?
4) Viva a La
5) That's a Petey

1. BUD does most days. She cleans the sheets weekly. ( as opposed to, when I was a bachelor, maybe every 6 weeks )
2. Was parking at lot 90 ( where the tennis courts across from AFH used to be ) I'm pretty sure listening to 96.5 the BUZZ ( RIP - I heard this just got removed from the airways ) and, right before I turned it off, the DJ was talking briefly about an airplane hitting the WTC. I figured a smaller plane in my mind and an accident. Went to class but class was only half full...teacher proceeded to have our normal 3 hour class.
3. I like Tom Hanks and don't know much about his wife ( actress ) so i'll go with them. Beyonce and JayZ aren't it for me.
4. 8 - Viva
5. Petey

1. No. When the black light indicates it’s time.

2. My apartment on Green Mountain. I had lived in Colorado for a month at time. My roommate and a girlfriend of his girlfriend were also there. Later that today I guess the traumatic nature of the day led to her needing closeness. Maybe me too.

3. Oprah Least. Obama most.

4. Super Eagle

5. Haitian Hank.

Yes, me, every day.
Used to wash the sheets weekly, but now that I'm single and am looking for rationalizations to be lazy, I've become a believer in the hygiene theory so I only wash the sheets every other Friday, and don't shower daily like I did for many, many decades, anymore, either.

I was listening to the radio in my car on my way to the office and heard about the first plane crash from Jason Whitlock.

Most: Barack and Michelle, Least: Will & Jada Pinkett Smith

Speedy Chariot
