Little Red Corvette
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!Saturday 9: LIttle Red Corvette

No link this week. Prince apparently is very strict about copyright infringement.
1) The subject of this song is frankly sexual. Do you blush easily?

Yes. Very easily.
2) Prince is his real name (Prince Rogers, to be exact). Growing up, his relatives called him "Skipper." Do you have any nicknames within your family?
Cari, Babe, Mama, and one that my mom has called me since I was little that I will not share here...Haha!
3) Prince says he's "obsessed" with Mozart and reads whatever he can find about the composer. What's the last book you read?

I'm reading "Love You More" by Lisa Gardner. It's part of the Detective D.D. Warren series.
4) Between Prince and The Beach Boys, the Corvette is a much sung-about car. Tell us about your vehicle.

I drive a black Trail Blazer. For the most part I love it but some days I wish it was a little bigger.
5) In the 1980s, when Prince was popular, MTV could turn a song into a hit. In 2014, how do you hear new music?

Usually on the radio when I'm driving but sometimes on MTV. When my son doesn't sleep well or gets up super early, we watch videos together.
6) In 1982, when "Little Red Corvette" ruled the airwaves, Braniff Airways shocked the travel industry and threw passengers into chaos by declaring bankruptcy. When did you last fly? Did your trip go smoothly?
It was almost 10 years ago, on my honeymoon. The trip was fantastic!
7) 1982 is also the year Disney opened Epcot. Have you ever been to a Disney park?

No. We want to take the kids there some day, when Lukie is a little bit older.
8) 1982 is the year Cheers premiered. The sitcom was set in a bar where "everybody knows your name." Tell us about your favorite local bar or restaurant.

I don't really have a favorite. There are a lot of places I like.
9) The 1980s were considered a highpoint in professional tennis, with Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe dominating the sport. Do you play tennis?

Nope. Never have.
You're probably wise to wait until the kids are old enough to deal with the lines at Disney. A day in the Magic Kingdom can be great fun, but the waiting can be frustrating if the kids aren't ready.
ReplyDeleteI like flying once I get to the vacation...but the actual flying part is not comfortable for me.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of the Detective DD Warren series. Always looking for something different to read. I haven't flown since I was married probably because kids came soon after. :-)
