Well after a quick discussion last week and another attempted baton passing, Dunaruna has handed the LadyFish weekly question task to me . . . Here goes:

[colour=blue]1) Where do you consider your childhood home and how far from there do you live now?

2) What is your favorite type of boating, river, lake or offshore and why?

3) Do you consider your spouse a positive, negative or neutral impact on boating?

4) In high school, would you’ve called yourself a soc, a jock, a partier, a nerd, gear head, bad boy (girl) or some other label? Any Homecoming Kings or Queens?

5) Where is the one place you want to travel to in your life that you haven’t yet?

[/colour]

1. Born in Milwaukee, where I live now is a suburb of the city.

2. Lake fishing. It is what I grew up doing. I have fished in many a river, but to me a lake is just what I am familiar with.

3. The girlfriend is nuetral. Doesnt mind me going, just gets mad when I come home late.

4. I fit in with almost every group of people, but if I had to choose I was a partier.

5. I want to go to Slovakia and see where my grandparents grew up before the escaped just before WWII

Re: This week's 5 questions . . .

1) Palmer, Kansas - population 165

2) Off shore, I guess cuz I've only been once and live so close to to ocean. ;)

3) Both. Positive because I can usually go whenever I want. (providing the chores are done) Negative because she doesn't like to fish. Guess I bettter get a bigger boat so I can pull her around on skis, which she digs.

4) Bad boy wannabe that didn't fish nearly enough.

5) Jamaica

Aldo,

Soc is short for Socialite. Gear head is just one term for someone who spent all of his time working on cars. Kinda like, well uh, you . . . :D

Homecoming is a big Football game and dance early in the High School year. The students all vote for a King and Queen, usually the most popular and attractive boy and girl in school.

Re: This week's 5 questions . . .

Is there a causal effect between being a partier in H.S.& the urge to boat?
There seems to be a link there.....
I think I'll get me a grant & research this further! :)

Re: This week's 5 questions . . .

1) Where do you consider your childhood home and how far from there do you live now?

Medford Oregon, about 2200 miles from here .

2)What is your favorite type of boating, river, lake or offshore and why?

Mostly lake fishing, occasional river fishing but when fishing rivers prefer to walk the bank.

3)Do you consider your spouse a positive, negative or neutral impact on boating?

Spouse loves to fish, when fishing it is me that says HON don’t you think it’s about time to go, the answer is in a few minutes.

4)In high school, would you’ve called yourself a soc, a jock, a partier, a nerd, gear head, bad boy (girl) or some other label? Any Homecoming Kings or Queens?

Played baseball some football, guess id be considered a jock. Most of my off time was looking for the next party.


5) Where is the one place you want to travel to in your life that you haven’t yet?

Been to most of the states, would like to go to BELIZE, some time before I kick. Check this link out…… http://www.belize.com/

Re: This week's 5 questions . . .

1) Where do you consider your childhood home and how far from there do you live now?
Huntingdon, PA - about 1 1/2 miles from where I now live - just moved out of the homestead 3 years ago.

2) What is your favorite type of boating, river, lake or offshore and why?

Do most on the lake, love the river where the water gets skinny, offshore ain't bad either!

3) Do you consider your spouse a positive, negative or neutral impact on boating?
Positive because she never boated before, but enjoys it now and encourages us to go. Negative because I have more responsibilities now and not as much time to go.

4) In high school, would you’ve called yourself a soc, a jock, a partier, a nerd, gear head, bad boy (girl) or some other label? Any Homecoming Kings or Queens?
A jock wanna-be (blown knee, constant sprained ankles, and blown shoulder kept me from being all I as meant to be), part soc, but a bit of a loner since I didn't drink, do drugs, etc. Too much hunting and fishing to be done to worry about getting into trouble. Nerdy Jock Outdoorsman with a flair for the social?

5) Where is the one place you want to travel to in your life that you haven’t yet?
NZ, Australia., & Ireland
