Re: Brokeback Mountain Themed Questionnaire (well sort of)

I was just re-reading this old questionnaire amazed by my old post here.  It's so funny to stumble across old posts (sometimes over 2 years old!).  I thought I'd update a few of my responses to these questions since a few things have changed in all this time..  I originally posted responses to this questionnaire on Feb. 17, 2007.  Those old answers are in green and my new updated answers will be in red.


1. Jack wants to take you out on a date. He asks you how you like to spend your Saturday night. What do you tell him?
I'd tell him that I'm more like him than he might expect and then I'd ask him if he could take me out to a dance hall to teach me how to meet and hook up with cute and smart women like Lureen with such little effort.
 :laugh:This answer pretty much still stands for m.

2. You are going camping up on Brokeback Mountain and you are allowed to bring only one luxury item with you. What would it be?
An air mattress.  I'm not a fan of sleeping on the ground.
This answer still seems about right for me too.  I might also add something about a really fancy, waterproof tent to go along with the air mattress.   And, now that I've actually been to Brokenback Mountain I realize that it truly would be a nice place to spend the night probably (even though I'm NOT a camping type of person almost any other circumstance).

3. Ennis wants to know how many times you've watched Brokeback Mountain?
Dozens and dozens.  Lost count long ago.
Yep.

4. You just bought an old lamp at the Riverton Antique Store. As you polish the lamp a genie pops out and grants you a wish. What would you wish for?
*modified to note* I'm going for the classic three wishes here
Every weekend to be a three day weekend.  A great girlfriend.  World peace (I know it sounds like a cliche, but I really mean this one).
Yep.

5. You are shopping at the Lightning Flat Wal-Mart and you need to buy some toothpaste. What brand do you get?
Vanilla Mint Crest. Yum!
I'm changing my answer to Crest Pro-Health.  It really is a nice toothpaste!

6. You are riding in a car with Alma and Lureen. Alma asks you what kind of music you would like to listen to on the radio. What do you tell her?
It would very much depend on my mood.  David Bowie is always the default option for me.  Maybe some nice Sleater-Kinney.  I've been on an old Sonic Youth kick lately, so maybe that.
Yep. Pretty much the same here.  I'd also be willing to listen to the BBM soundtrack under any circumstance too of course.

7. Jack just bought a new DVD player. Out of curiosity he asks you how many DVDs you own. How many?
I own far fewer DVDs than I do CDs.  I have probably around 50 DVDs and around 500 CDs
Yep.

8. Ennis just shot an Elk. After he cooks it, he asks you if you would like some. Would you try some Elk?
Yes, I would try it.  Usually I don't like hunting at all.  But, I've always heard that venison is good.  So, I would try it.  I'm not a vegetarian.
I have now eaten elk twice!  Once at the BBQ in Estes park in May of 2008 and then again just this past July after Lee and I saw TDK in Denver, we went out to lunch and I had an elk burger.  That burger was great!

9. You are getting ready to take a road trip with the BBM Gang and you are responsible for selecting a hotel. What is your favorite hotel chain?
I like bed and breakfasts and charming little hotels.  Does that count?  I don't have a strong preference for any of the big chain hotels.
Yep. I still like the small hotels.  But at this point I also tend to quite like Marriott and Doubletree hotels... they tend to be a little more luxurious than some of the other big brands, in my experience at least.

10. Jack and Ennis want to know if you have ever been to Wyoming?
Unfortunately, no.
At this point I can say YES!!! Twice.  One trip up to Cheyenne for lunch during the BBQ weekend last May 2007.  And, then of course Lee and I just had our big road trip through Wyoming and visit to the rodeo in Cheyenne this July.

11. Alma just bought a new house and she can't figure out a color scheme for her new kitchen. She wants to know what colors are in your kitchen?
My kitchen is mostly white with accents of really bright colors... mostly red.  So, red and white.
Yep. Still the same apartment... so same colors.

12. Ennis has decided to take guitar lessons. Do you play any musical instruments?
I played violin for years but quit in college.  I also used to play the guitar.  I would be very, very rusty if I tried either intrument at this point.
Yep.


13. Jack just bought a new puppy! What is your favorite animal?
Cats!  I love cats!  I have a one and a half year old black cat named Vivien.  She's just about the most beautiful thing ever.
Yep.

14. You are thirsty and you see a pop machine located outside the general store. The machine is stocked with Coke, Pepsi and RC. Which one do you pick?
Pepsi
Yep.

15. Lureen wants to know how many televisions you have in your house?
One that works and one broken one in the storage closet (I guess I should really just throw that one away, hunh?).
Yep. Still the same and I still haven't thrown away the broken one in the storage closet!
:laugh:

16. Ma Twist just joined a book club and she asks you the title of the last book you read. What is it?
Misfortune by Wesley Stace.  I didn't like it as much as I expected I would.
The History of Love by Nichole Krauss

17. Jack and Ennis plan on buying a new PC (so they can join BetterMost) and they want to know what brand of computer you own?
Gateway
Yep.

18. It will soon be spring in Wyoming. What is your favorite warm weather activity?
Going to the beach.
Yep. And, I'll add car trip/ road trip to this too.

19. Bobby just received a new video game system for Christmas. Which two video games are your favorites?
I don't like video games at all.  I suppose computer solitaire doesn't count.
Yep.

20. Ennis wants to fix you a nice dinner. What is your favorite dish (meal)?
Well, since it's Ennis I would be happy with a really good steak and some great red wine.
Yep. I still like these things, but I'm trying really hard to avoid beef lately.  So, I'll change my response to white wine and salmon!

21. There is a big thunderstom brewing over the peaks of Brokeback Mountain. Do you enjoy thunderstorms?
I love thunderstorms!!!
Yep. Still love storms!

22. Lureen asks you for the time. Do you own a digital or analog watch?
Analog
Yep.

23. As Jack was redlining it across Wyoming, he was pulled over and given a speeding ticket. How many speeding tickets have you received?
Zero!!!
Yep. Still zero!!  Yeehaw!

24. Aguirre got in touch with his feminine side and took up knitting! What is your favorite hobby (or hobbies)?
Reading.
Yep.

Hot tea (Earl Grey)
At the moment I'm not drinking anything.
