SATURDAY SIX

So, I've never done this particular little thing before, but I always read other people's answers to these Saturday questions.   Exhausted by my constant coughing, and without much inspiration for anything else to do - I'm giving it a try on this Saturday.

1. What is your favorite restaurant to visit for breakfast and what do you order?  

   My favorite restaurant to visit for breakfast is in Austin, TX, Las Manitas Avenue Café, with any one of the Kerby Lane Cafés as a close second choice.  Austin is an eating city, and these are two great places to get a Mexican breakfast or an American one, both fantastic.  In my current real life, however, I live in Delaware, so my favorite breakfast place is called White Caps Café, and is down the road a ways in Oak Orchard.  Great sticky buns, which they heat up on the griddle -oozing butter, covered with pecans. Needless to say, we don't do this very often.  Mostly in the summer with visiting family or friends.  Great crabbing pier there too.

2. Do you have any unique ability like those who appear on David Letterman's "Stupid Human Tricks?"  If so, how did you learn you had this talent?

None whatsoever, I can't even cross my eyes.  Like Cherie, I am able to pick stuff up with my toes, but this just comes from having long toes I think.  And I certainly wouldn't do it on David Letterman.
 
3. There are plenty of sites on the internet for pen pals; some of them are specifically designed for communicating with people in prison.  Have you ever or would you begin corresponding with a stranger who was in prison?

I have thought about this, and yes I would do it.  I have a friend who is a shrink at a women's prison, and I may some day see if she knows a woman or two there for a long time who might like a correspondence with the outside world.  Right now I don't really even correspond with my friends, so this would have to be in the retired future.
 
4. Name two questions you have always wanted to ask a pair of identical twins.

My question would be about a psychic or internal bond with each other - not sure how I would phrase it.  It would begin with asking if they spoke their own private language as small children, before they learned the language spoken by family members, or at the same time.
 
5. If you looked back at your high school yearbook photos, what is more embarrassing?  Your hair, your clothes, your glasses, or your complexion?

Actually, my high school yearbook pictures now look pretty damn good to me.  If I had left my glasses on when the pictures were taken it would definitely have been the glasses.  Big dark nerd frames, as I recall.  But I did take them off, and I really look just fine. 

6. If you had to change the color of one of the following, which would you change and why:  the walls in your living room, your car, or your eyes.

I'd love to have a bright yellow pickup truck.  Right now I have a beat-up old white Mazda pickup, incredibly dirty with birdshit and the recent nasty weather.  But I've got my eye on a little yellow Chevy truck in a used car place down the street.
