Just Another Silly "Getting To Know You" Questionnaire

[David In Indy]

13. What is your favorite television show?    Most Haunted Live

I love that show too Souxi. I think Yvette is so cute and pretty. And I miss Derek. But David is also very good, don't you think? I heard he'll be leaving the show too. I also miss Phil Wyman (I'm not sure if I'm spelling his last name correctly). I also like Kath a lot. I think we are a year behind all of you in England. They air Most Haunted every Friday night on the Travel Channel and I always watch it.

I also watch Ghost Hunters, another ghost show very similar to Most Haunted. It airs each Wednesday evening on the Sci-Fi channel. Grant Wilson, one of the lead investigators is absolutely gorgeous!

Isn't his name Maxi, Chrissi? Maxi with the little dots over the "a" - oomlots I think they are called. He's so cute! Maybe you can post a picture of him over in my Shutter Bug thread sometime? He's such a cute dog!

Yup, Mäxi, or Max actually. But Max, pronounced German is a hard sound, so mostly I call him Mäxi. The "ä" is how you pronounce the "a": Max, cat, gas, etc.
The funny little dots above the ä, ö or ü are called Umlaute, but "oomlots" is close to how we pronounce the word 


Will post a pic of Mäxi in the Shutter Bug Club

I,m not 100% sure about Derek. Some of his alleged "possesions" were a bit what I call "iffy". In other words, I aint sure if, he was faking it sometimes. But David Wells is very good, as is Gordon Smith. Most Haunted is on Living TV over here. When we have Most Haunted Live, at halloween, they usualy show it in the states too at the same time. They get lots of American viewers emailing them.  Yes I watch Ghost Hunters too. At the moment we have Ghost Hunters International. This week they went to corvan castle in transylvania, where Most Haunted did a live show once. I also like Ghost Whisperer, thats coming back soon. I do love my spooky stuff lol. btw I can,t STAND Yvette. She has got such a big mouth and she,s so bossy, I couod hit her!!! Poor Carl, I dont know how he puts up with her.

25. Read any good books lately? Yes

Which books, Dottie? 

[Dobie1018]

I love that movie too Dobie! I also loved the books. I've read them a dozen times probably!

Hi David,  Yes, I've read the books at least 4 or 5 times as well.  I've watched the FOTR at least 50 times, and the other 2 almost as much, but the first one of the trilogy is my favorite.  I LOVE Elijah Wood.  He's such a cutie, and I had the opportunity a few years ago to actually meet him; have my picture taken with him and have him sign my LOTR book.  I also met Sean Astin that same weekend and had  him sign my LOTR book as well.
This is a great thread!  I'm fascinated with everybody's answers!

Great quiz, I was fascinated as one of the few watch wearers, how things have changed over the decades.I wonder how different the answer to wearing a watch would have been before small cell phones.
Also the majority seem to be pet owners. I liked the fact that unlike me, so many seem to be happy loving where they are. I have always had wanderlust though.

I lost my wristwatch down the toilet last year while I was cleaning it. I haven't bought another one since then. At least it wasn't an expensive one!

Maybe we should start a "wristwatch poll". Digital vs analog, or something like that. Anyone feel up to it?
