Twist and Shout
Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!
1) In the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Ferris climbs up on a parade float and enthusiastically lip synchs this song, encouraging the entire crowd to join in. Do you know the lyrics of "Twist and Shout" well enough to sing along? (Watch the impossibly young Matthew Broderick as Ferris here.)
Yes
2) What other Beatles' song do you know all the words to?

Quite a few of them :)
3) 49 years after their American debut, The Beatles are acknowledged as having a lasting impact on both music and culture. What performers on today's music scene do you think will be remembered 50 years from now?

Lady Gaga, for her bizarre-ness, Eminem, Beyoncé, Brad Paisley.

I don't know. I love fruits and vegetables but I also love a really good steak.
5) As a young boy, Ringo Starr suffered a severe attack of appendicitis and almost died. Do you still have your appendix? What about your tonsils?
Still have it all.
6) John Lennon sketched and doodled when he was bored or nervous. Do you have any nervous habits?

I tap my foot and twist my rings.
7) George Harrison loved Hawaii so much he bought a 63-acre estate in Maui. Have you ever visited our 50th state?

8) Yoko Ono was a polarizing character in the Beatles' saga. Has any of your friends ever dated/married someone you just could not stand?

Yes
9) Paul has had dogs his entire adult life, including a sheepdog, Martha, and a black lab, Jet. John was especially fond of a cat named Elvis and a tomcat he found in the snow and named Tim. Tell us about one of your pets.
I have a dog name Cloz'r. She's 10, she's a mix between a German shepherd and a black lab, and she's my first baby :)
I think it's sweet that you think of your dog as your first baby.
ReplyDeleteThe Gal Herself ~ She will always be my first :) We got her six years before we had children and although sometimes I feel because of our kids, she gets the short end of the stick, we still try to make sure she knows how loved she is :)
