I got caught doing that, too. Some guys can't take a hint!

1. They say elephants never forget. Would you compare your memory to that of an elephant or gnat? Generally an elephant, although my gnat moments are becoming more and more frequent. 2. What kinds of things do you find it easy to remember? Things I'd rather forget - hurtful comments, for instance. 3. What kinds of things do you find it difficult to remember? Directions! Thank God for GPS. 4. How does your short-term memory compare to your long-term memory? My long term memory is more reliable. 5. How do you commit things to memory? Do you use tricks, songs, images, word associations, or other little mnemonics? I use songs and word associations when studying for tests. 6. Take this quiz - What Kind of Thinker Are You? Your Thinking is Abstract and Random You are flexible, adaptable, and creative. There's many ways that you can learn - and you're up for any of them. You relate well to other people, and you do well working in groups. You can help people communicate together and work with each other's strengths. You don't work well with people who are competitive or adversarial. You prefer to work toward a common goal... not toward conflicting goals.

Where's my rake?

Napkins, because I seem to have no problem remembering to restock the other items, but napkins are just suddenly gone without notice.

That's awful... 34 is so young!

I've certainly had crushes on people I never met, but serious romantic feelings? How is that even possible?

Well, I was just on a long flight and started reading Ted Kennedy's autobiography - which is actually very interesting. I'd like to read The Time Traveler's Wife, too, Sharon.

1. Have you made any Halloween plans? Nothing special, I'll be home handing out candy. 2. At what age should you stop trick-or-treating? I think early teens, but my kids disagreed, haha. I think they all quit around 15-16. 3. What's your favorite kind of Halloween candy? You can't go wrong with chocolate. 4. Are you more likely to buy a costume or to make it? Make it, although I have done both. 5. Will you be handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters? yep!

No - I hate that sound!

The Phillies are incredible again this year Love them! I'm sitting in the Philly airport right now, and am surrounded by people in Phillies shirts - everyone is a fan today.

That was a fun Buried Treasure! I won't be able to make the chat as I'll be on an airplane - enjoy yourselves!

No, and I keep saying I'm going to do it - one of these days.

I voted yes - because it will be thoroughly inconvenient for me if they decide to tour this summer. It seems like every band I love will be on the road this year!

Love "Wheels!"

I am a real birthday slacker - hope it was happy, Toni!

LOVE THOSE PHILLIES!

^Hopes the Phillies clinch it in the next game. < ditto V doesn't care about the Phillies OR the Dodgers

Ditto - and I wish the news would stop giving those people the fame they are seeking!

I went with maybe for the same reasons mentioned above - depends on the situation.

As Toni said to me in an email last night - Cliff Lee is a GOD! WTG Phillies!

I can't name one Garth Brooks song, so no - unless my daughter suddenly becomes a fan and asks to see him.

Happy Birthday, Marcia!!! Hope all your dreams come true.
