Apparently, Blogger has been having some serious troubles over the past week. When I published last night's "Saturday Six" questions, it turns out that they published, but didn't appear anywhere. They're up now, and now you have this Sunday offering to go with them.
Yesterday, I visited the Coastal Carolina Fair, a carnival held annually in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. It had the typical rides, games, and attractions, plus the ever-popular food vendors. That got me thinking about this week's question.
But first, Wil, of "The Daily Snooze" was first to play last week! Congratulations, Wil!
On to this week's question!
THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:
Name up to seven foods popular at fairs or carnivals that you either once loved or still do.
Either answer the question in a comment or answer it in your journal and include the link in a comment. (To be considered "first to play," a link must be to the specific entry in which you answered the question.)
1. Corn Dogs
2. Funnel Cakes
3. Roasted Corn on the Cob
4. Indian Tacos
5. Cotton Candy
6. Caramel Apples
7. Cinnamon Rolls
Hope you're having a nice weekend. It's time for another round of questions, so get your thinking caps on!
But first, Gabrielle of "A Metamorphoself of Gabrielle" was first to play last week! Congratulations, Gabrielle!
Here are this week's "Saturday Six" questions. Either answer the questions in a comment here, or put the answers in an entry on your journal...but either way, leave a link to your journal so that everyone else can visit! To be counted as "first to play," you must be the first player to either answer the questions in a comment or to provide a complete link to the specific entry in your journal in which you answer the questions. A link to your journal in general cannot count. Enjoy!
1. Have you ever joined one of those "social networking" communities like "Friendster" or "Myspace?" Would you ever consider it? Mmmm. Not really for me. I do have a "Myspace" but I don't really use it.
2. Do you think that lasting friendships can be made solely through sites like those? I don't think so. There are exceptions to the rule. My step-daughter met her current boyfriend through Myspace and they are now living together. We'll see how long it lasts.
3. Has reduced prices in gasoline prompted you to drive more? Not really, just enjoying the lower prices.
4. Take the quiz: What kind of sports car are you? (Thanks, Charley!)
You are a Ferrari 360 Modena!
You've got it all. Power, passion, precision, and style. You're sensuous, exotic, and temperamental. Sure, you're expensive and high-maintenance, but you're worth it. Now we're talking! ;)
5. Which phone do you use the most: your home phone, your work phone, or your cell phone? Of the remaining two, which do you use the least? Cell phone the most. Work the least.
6. In the old days, telephone numbers used to be word and letter combinations. The telephone company would take the first two digits of a phone number, create a word that began with two letters corresponding to the numbers in the digits, and then follow the word with the rest of the number. So, for a number that began with 25, they might use the "A" from the 2 button and the "L" from the 5 button and create a phone number like "Alpine 2-6341. If we went back to this system, come up with a word that would work for the first two digits of your phone number. (It can be work, home or cell...just don't post your whole number! Coastal 2-9222.
Found these little quizzes over at Patrick's Place...
| Your Dosha is Pitta |
 You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor.You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader. Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways. But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical. With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you In love: You are picky but passionate To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight. |
Pitta-type people are generally of medium size and well proportioned. They have a medium amount of physical energy and stamina. They also tend to be intelligent and have a sharp wit and a good ability to concentrate. Fire is a characteristic of Pitta, whether it shows up as fiery red hair or a short temper. Since Pittas' body temperature is generally warm, Pitta types can go out of balance with overexposure to the sun. Their eyes are sensitive to light. They are ambitious by nature but also can be demanding and abrasive.
Pitta types are known for their strong digestion but should be careful not to abuse it. Their heat makes them particularly thirsty, and they should take caution not to douse their agni, or digestive fire, with too much liquid during meals. Pitta dosha leads us to crave moderation and purity. We rely on Pitta to regulate our intake of food, water, and air. Any toxins, such as alcohol or tobacco, show up as a Pitta imbalance. Toxic emotions such as jealousy, intolerance, and hatred also should be avoided to keep Pitta in balance for optimum health.
Looks like I'm reasonably balanced, ya think?
| Your Personality Is Like Cocaine |
 You're dynamic, brilliant, and alluring to those who don't know you. Hyper and full of energy, you're usually the last one to leave a party. Sometimes your sharp mind gets the better of you... you're a bit paranoid! |
I say ... and you think ... ?
Oh yeah...it's Saturday, isn't it? Sorry for keeping you all waiting. I had a busy day of running errands and getting out and exploring the city a bit. And as I was sitting here at the computer having a very late dinner, it occurred to me that it was time -- past time, actually -- to post the questions!
But first, Nichole of "My Two Cents" was first to play last week! Congratulations, Nicole!

1. Who is the last person who you spoke to by telephone? My wonderful DH, David.
2. Who is the last person you spoke to online? My favorite sister, Kathryn.
3. Which of the two have you seen more in person? David.
4. Take the quiz: How is your self-esteem?

5. What is the longest period of time you have gone without internet service since you became a "regular user?" OMG, like a whole week!
6. How much did the lack of internet availability bother you? I was anxious and irritable.
I'm posting this one a few hours early because I likely won't have internet access tomorrow. In any case, please be patient for comments to actually be posted. As soon as I can get back to a computer, I'll post responses.
While packing up the pantry, I came across a fair number of cans of Campbell's Soup. It's amazing how little it can take to inspire a question, isn't it!
Last week's "first to play" required a bit of sorting. To be considered "first to play," you must be the first one to post the link to the specific entry in the blog where you posted your answers. So it would appear that Jude, of "My Way," who was actually the third person to post a comment was technically "first to play" last week because she was the first one to leave the whole URL for the specific post. That makes Jude first for the second week in a row! Congratulations!
On to this week's question!
THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:
Name your top seven favorite flavors of soup.
Either answer the question in a comment or answer it in your journal and include the link in a comment. (To be considered "first to play," a link must be to the specific entry in which you answered the question.)
1. Chicken Tortilla Soup
2. Hot & Sour Soup
3. Gumbo (is that a soup?)
4. Chicken Corn Chowder
5. Potato
6. Broccoli Cheese
7. Chicken Noodle Soup (homemade)
I made it back to South Carolina, but I don't have internet access at home just yet, so I'm posting this (and Sunday's a little early) from my parents' house while I have the chance. I'll get back to regular posting as soon as possible...which will likely mean as soon as Bellsouth sends that modem!)
Please be patient for comments to actually be posted. As soon as I can get back to a computer, I'll post responses.
Before this week's questions, De of "De's" Thoughts" was first to play last week! Congratulations, De! Oh wow! How did that happen again?! ;)

1. You move to a new city: what is the first thing you're most likely to check out in your immediate surroundings: restaurants, grocery stores, shopping malls, movie theaters or historic sites? Grocery stores (24hr Wal-Mart preferrably) and resturants. A person’s gotta eat!
2. Consider the local television stations in your area: do you generally stay more with one station for entertainment and local news, or do you tend to rely on one station for local news and others for entertainment? Depends, but mostly one station for news and then hopping around for entertainment.
3. Is there a set time of day or night that you blog, or do you just post whenever the spirit moves you? Mostly during the wee night hours as I’m a night-shifter.
4. How often do you write a blog entry, then save it as a "draft" rather than publishing it immediately to think it over before actually posting it? If I’m taking the time to write it, I go ahead and publish it right away.
5. Which makes a better dessert after a good meal: ice cream, pie, or cake? Can I have all three?
6. What is your favorite flavor of the item you selected in question #5? I’m female…chocolate, of course! ;)
I'm so sorry........................ :
Everybody say a prayer for Betty, please. I don't know what is going on but I know she needs our love and support.
We love you Betty!
Someone joked that I'd be able to be a "Gamecock" again now that I was moving back to South Carolina. I responded that I never stopped being a Gamecock. But that remark suggests the perfect topic for this week.
But first, Jude, of "My Way" was first to play last week! Congratulations, Jude!
