Saturday 9





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!


Thanks to Cie for recommending the Monkees


1) This song is about a guy who fell in love when he saw her face. Do you believe in love at first sight?  No.  I think it's more like lust at first sight.


2) "I'm a Believer" is the best-selling Monkees song. Can you name another one? Hey Hey We're The Monkees


3) On their TV show, the boys competed for the same girl. Have you and a friend ever been romantic rivals?  No.


4) In another episode, the Monkees visited the circus. If you were confident there was a good strong net beneath you, would you walk across the high wire?  No, I'm scared of heights.  A net wouldn't make it any better.


5) The Monkees show originally aired on Monday nights. Do you have a favorite day of the week?  Sunday.  Even though it means the weekend is coming to an end, it's usually the one day my husband is home all day and we all get to hang out.


6) Davy Jones guest starred on an episode of The Brady Bunch. The plot revolved around Marcia's efforts to get him to perform at the prom. Share one of your memories from a school dance.  My friends and I went to homecoming in a Greyhound type bus that had been converted into an apartment on wheels. 


7) At the height of their popularity, the Monkees' faces and logo appeared on a lot of merchandise, including lunch boxes. Which would you rather have for lunch -- chicken salad, tuna salad or egg  salad?  Tuna salad.


8) You have an afternoon all to yourself. Would you rather spend it at the mall, checking out what's new in the stores and people watching, or walking through the forest, observing the birds and trees and leaves?  Probably at the mall, buying things the kids need or reading.


9) Do you have a good memory for names?  I used to!  It seems like as soon as I met my husbands huge family, I lost that ability and I can never remember names anymore.
