Also, check it out: I'm famous! And, uh, exotic.

**************
Monday Meme

GRUB-OLOGY
• What is your salad dressing of choice? Anything vinaigrette. Although the OTHER choice at the wedding was red Roquefort, and I should have had that.

• On average, what size tip do you leave at a restaurant? 15 - 20%. But if the service sucks, less.
• What food could you eat every day for two weeks and not get sick of? Mild buffalo bites with blue cheese dressing and celery sticks, accompanied by an ice-cold Yuengling - go on, try me.

DARE-OLOGY
For this last section, if you would do it for less or more money, indicate how much.

• Would you walk naked for a half mile down a public street for $100,000? Yes, but don’t tell them that, I want to negotiate for more.

• Would you, without fear of punishment, take a human life for $1,000,000? It depends upon the person and the circumstances. I am still contemplating H and the bus...

you mailed graham crackers? How do they not have those in Australia? And no thin mints? I must go and comment over at Pea Soup... and then email my sister in Brisbane... maybe she can trade graham crackers for better treats.

Sarah Louise said...

Well, I guess I have sort of already done the naked thing--but I'm still not sure I want to blog about the dare-ology part...

Lynne@Oberon said...

Why would nobody drink the hot sauce for what seems like a really quick piece of easy money?? I'll drink the hot sauce then and everyone else can get naked and kiss and stuff ;)

Do you think if this were BableDude's page we'd be thinking "yuck"

lazy cow said...

OK, now I think I know you better than I really want to :-)

Joke said...

You can only choose H or the bus. You just want $2,000,000 and the chance to read...you can't fool me.

Suse said...

Ooh baby, show us your wrists.

BabelBabe said...

Katy - ask for TimTams. Trust me.

SL - the naked part? Wha? You've done it?

SF - I'd vomit. It's just gross. and a 1000 bucks isn't enough. maybe for five thou i'd think about it.

david - haha

joke - i am pushing H UNDER the bus.

suse - new pic? It's cute.

Joke said...

OK, I guess that sort of consolidation is allowed. Still, you'll only get ONE million, not two.

-J.

Amy said...

I actually loved the "cottage cheese" comment myself. I'd have to agree on that one. Loved this!

Caro said...

No, let ME push H under the bus. Nobody would suspect me.

I have a brother-in-law that you can push under the bus. Nobody would suspect you.

The perfect crimes. (Insert maniacal laughter here.)
