I wouldn't change a thing because any event in history has lead to the events of today, therefore changing the past results in changing the future in unknown ways.

2.What was your first date?

I went out with this kid who was my mom's friend's son. We had lunch at this bar/resturant and went to a few shops.

3. Favorite Sport?

Agility!! Ok so it's not a sport that you participate in so to speak but it's fun to teach the dogs the course.

4. Favorite amusement park ride?

It's been so long since I've been to a park I don't really remember the rides too well.

5. Most respected President?

I think any of the first few presidents this country had since they all took a big part in shaping the US.

6. Favorite alcoholic drink?

They don't make it anymore but I used to be hooked on Two dog orange brew. If they started to make that again I'd probably start drinking again. Other than that I do like white russians.

7. Favorite subject in school?

Er.... Lunch??

8. Worst subject in school?

Math!!

9. Favorite restaurant

I don't really have one. I try not to eat out because I always think about the poor preperation my food has been through and I can't enjoy the meal.
10. Favorite show?

South park, the simpsons, the family guy, emergency vets... I really don't watch that much TV though. I always miss these shows.

1. If you could go back in time and change one event in history, which would it be and why?

I wouldn't change anything for fear of disrupting the space-time continuum, anything I'd change would have endless ramifications on life as we know it.

2.What was your first date?

A movie with a friend, but he was interested in me as more than a friend.

3. Favorite Sport?

Football and anything that has horses.

4. Favorite amusement park ride?

roller coasters--big and fast. Hershey Park's Great Bear is the best, the cars are suspended from a track above, so your legs dangle as you whip through loops and spirals. Love it!

5. Most respected President?

FDR, and I respect Jimmy Carter for what he has done since being President, such as Habitat for Humanity. He had good ideas in office, I think, but couldn't get anywhere with them.

6. Favorite alcoholic drink?

Bombay Sapphire, wine, Lancaster Brewing Company's Strawberry Wheat beer.

7. Favorite subject in school?

English

8. Worst subject in school?

Chemistry

9. Favorite restaurant

Tobias Frogg, a local restaurant with awesome steaks.

10. Favorite show?

The X-Files, Buffy, Angel, Trading Spaces

Of course no one can take that chance, but in an ideal situation, I would not allow the holocaust of the sinking of the Titanic.


2.What was your first date?
I was thirteen. My "boyfriend" and I went to a movie in the afternoon. I guess his mom told him the proper date etiquette, because after we came out of the movie, he asked, "Ya wanna eat?" Oh, how romantic! A good memory, though.

3. Favorite Sport? I love to watch tennis and figure skating. I played softball for fun, and baseball was my favorite until 10 years ago.

4. Favorite amusement park ride? Roller coasters



5. Most respected President? FDR

1. If you could go back in time and change one event in history, which would it be and why?

I agree that one event would change everything that we know today, but the one thing I would change is that I would make sure Hitler was killed when he was fighting in the 1st World War so he couldn't rise to power and begin the 2nd World War.

2.What was your first date?

I always did a lot of stuff with friends that were guys. I think my first real date was either taking a guy that I liked to a school dance, or when my high school boyfriend took me to see some sci-fi movie and we made out in the back of the theater.


3. Favorite Sport?

I participate in shooting sports (competitive target shooting), and I like watching stock car racing, hockey (GO AVS!) and football.

4. Favorite amusement park ride?

Roller Coasters! We are actually planning (someday) to make a vacation around going to Cedar Point in Ohio because they have some of the best roller coasters in the world!

5. Most respected President?

The early Presidents (Washington, Jefferson, Adams, etc.) because they actually had real power to make things happen, and they truly believed in what they were doing not just paying lip service to ideas to get elected.

6. Favorite alcoholic drink?

Lynchberg Lemonade, Colorado Bulldog (White Russian with a splash of Coke)

7. Favorite subject in school?

English

8. Worst subject in school?

I hated math but I could do it. PE/Gym was my worst subject. Never was athletically inclined!

9. Favorite restaurant

Red Lobster, Stuart Anderson's Black Angus. (Hubby doesn't like trying anything that isn't a national restarant, especially those really good family owned places
)

10. Favorite show?

VH1's Behind the Music, The Simpsons, Chris Isaak Show, Law and Order (any of the series, but especially SVU)
