True. I got all choked up singing the star spangled banner as my co-workers stared at me in shock.

And yes, they still have barf bags on planes. Last night while perusing the items in the seat pocket in front of me, I stumbled upon one. I was shocked to see that someone had scribbled some calculus on it. It had me giggling for a couple of hours (yep - easily amused).

TPBM has never sung the national anthem (of whatever country they call home).

Don't give me the peanut butter again! I fell for that trick once before and am not doing it again.

TPBM knows how far Ireland is from New York City.

Yes, I took the Laker Skytrain from Kennedy to Gatwick in 1978. We overflew the Emerald Isle on thw way to Britain. The airfare was only $120.00 oneway, $118 for return a week later. I traveled to Edinburg ( pronounced Edinbourgh) to visit my ancestral home ,which is actually a pile of stone now. One of my ancesters bought a barony to become unlanded gentry ( a mercenary soldier, actually, who gave the English King gold.). Our family crest is still visable in the Abbey courtyard at Holyrood Castle. But there ain't no Baron no more, we moved to America when the Bonnie Prince was exiled...

TPBM is also the spawn of scots/irish ancesters.

Don't think so. Was WKRP in cinncinati a tv show? Didn't Loni Andrsonmarry someone in guns and Roses? Or maybe all of them.
:shock:

TPBM prefers listening to music over watching TV.

What?! And make the screen even dirtier then it already is? I think not.

TPBM had spilled their drink on the screen though.

No, I always preferred gerbils.

TPBM immediately thought of a bad image about gerbils in reference to that statement. :shock:

No, too financially unstable to have a pet. Although, apparently some animal DID ride into BRC in the air filter of my car... (I checked the air filter after I left the playa and the air filter was pristine, but something had been chewing on the housing.)

TPBM has snuck in to a drive-in movie.
