Thank you. Number three is my drivers permit. You have two tests to take for a drivers licences the written test and the drivers test. When you pass your written you get a permit to where you can drive with a licensed driver in the front seat with you.

3.  I have never eaten a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

I 100% agree with you on number 2. There is to much evidence that it helps. Big pharma just hasn't found a way to make money on it yet.

Are you allergic to peanut butter?

1: I am an American. Dispute Americans having a reputation for eating fast food, being lazy and fat, I do not eat fast food nor am I overweight nor am I lazy. I do not even drink soda or eat candy, etc.

2: I have never met either of my grandfathers. One died before I was born and wasn't nice at all, the other one isn't nice either. . .was never allowed contact.


3: I have had a job that makes $50 an hour since I was 13 years old.

Nope, not allergic. I like it plain, on a spoon but there's something about the texture combination that is a turnoff for me. Let alone with jelly lol. It's weird, I know!

1. What is your last name? OK, I understand why you might not want that out on public forums, but I'm interested.

2. Yes it should.

3. It does sound kind of weird. It's not top on my list of "Things to try", I have to admit.

1. I was born and raised in Pennsylvania, U.S.A., but have lived in Germany for most of my adult life.
2. I taught English as a second language for over three decades, but quit teaching two years ago and starting working at an animal shelter. The dogs obey English better than German, so I guess I'm still teaching. :)
3. I hate the smell of bananas.

Ha, yes, can't say what it is but I'll give you background.

Evidently, when my dad's family came over from Russia, when they arrived in Philadelphia, they were asked what their last name was.  As with many immigrants, they just wrote it down as they understood it so, the real name got *******ized by way of miscommunication and spelling.  My father's family were fairly small, his siblings didn't have a lot of kids and some, none at all.  There is less than a handful of male family members who will be able to carry the name forward.  The older family members are now well past the having kids stage. I sadly predict that within a generation the name will cease to exist :(

I'm not a fan of banana smell either.  I like them, but the odor sometimes makes me feel ill.

Indeed. Indeed it is.

You know, I think that's rather sad. That a name will just die out. I guess it happens often and we don't really think about it. But it's just kind of sad that the name won't be around, other than (maybe) in books or genealogy records.

Bananas are my kryptonite. I hate everything about them. The smell, the taste, the texture. Everything. The only other food that repulses me as much is hard boiled eggs. I loathe them. The smell, the rubbery, slimy texture. They are so gross. DH used to love egg salad and now and then would ask me to make him some. I hated every second of it. Just looking at a deviled egg makes me gag.
