Thursday Thunks (08.13.09)

Welcome to the August 13th version of Thursday Thunks!

(which we always seem to post on Wednesday)
Where we make you think a little bit before you blog!

This week we will answer some crazy questions brought to you by

Kimber, the number 4812 and the color of storm clouds.

1. Hypothetical question- you are in a building with famous works of art, old manuscripts of famous novels, and original sheet music from famous composers. The building is on fire and looks to be completely destroyed. Do you grab any of the famous works before fleeing, and if so what?
Well, I guess this would be assuming that any of the works were not locked down into place? It seems like they are in most museums. Anyway, that's a tough question... I'd probably grab some works of art--that seems like the most "unreproduceable" item there--it's originality somehow seems more important than the other items. Books and music are reproduced all the time on a level that other works of art aren't. If that makes sense...

2. In August 1969, the Manson family went on a 2 night killing spree. Do you think 40 years later they have paid for their crimes?
To tell you the truth, I don't even really know how they've paid.

3. Power Outage! What's the longest you have been without power?
Probably only 8-12 hours. Unlike my poor parents who were once without power for over 8 days.

4. Just bought a new tazer gun. Will you let it be tested it on you to see if it works, and how it feels to be tazered?
Probably not. "Don't taze me, bro!"

5. A neighbor's mail was delivered to you. In it is a magazine not wrapped in plastic. Is it ok for you to flip through it before giving it to the neighbor? Do you tell them you looked through it?
I don't see why not--it's not like First Class mail. I mean, if you forget to change your forwarding address, magazines are only forwarded for a limited amount of time, anyway, I think. Anyway, why bother telling them? Unless you do something dumb like drop it in water or something that obviously messed up the magazine...

6. If I went through your purse/wallet right now, what all would I find in there?
In my purse... a lot of junk... coupons, my wallet, lipstick, more coupons, keys, business cards, a Tide To Go pen, more coupons, miscellaneous jewelry, a book, a Kohl's ad, receipts, did I mention coupons?

7. Have you been living under a rock?
Pretty much. Except for work.

8. Tell us something crazy you did this week.

Ummmm, no idea. I'm not a crazy person. Well, I don't think so, at any rate.
