Answers to Your Questions and the Impossible Breakfast Challenge

Thanks for your comments on the last post.  As promised, I will answer the questions you asked.

1.  What is my favorite Star Wars film?  That's a tough one, because there are so many good ones.  I'll have to go with Star Wars Episode V.  Harrison Ford is Han Solo, and Carrie Fisher is Princess Leia.  This is probably the darkest of the series, but I like it because it introduces Yoda.  And Yoda is cool.

2.  What Debussy piece did I play for the pageant?  Deux Arabesque No. 1

3.  How do you pronounce, "Debussy"?  duh-byoo-SEE

4.  Is there anything I'm scared to do?  Well, let's see.  I hadn't really thought about it, but now that I have, here's what I've come up with:

. Swimming with piranhas, crocodiles, or great white sharks

. High diving off a cliff into water

. Skiing on dangerous terrain

. Drag racing (going super fast in a car makes me nervous)

. Walking over hot coals with bare feet

. Tightrope walking across the Grand Canyon

. Cave Diving in unexplored places.  Actually, I really don't like cave diving.  I did a little of it when I was a SCUBA diving instructor, and I hated the closed spaces and not being able to see well.  Getting stuck was a huge worry.


If any of you missed the opportunity to ask me questions, and want to do so, leave them in the comment section, and I'll answer them one more time.



Now for the story:

My son and I were sitting at the table having breakfast when he posed this question:  "Mama,  have you ever taken the impossible breakfast challenge?"

I looked at him.  "Dude.  I have no idea what the impossible breakfast challenge is."

"It's when you try to play Flappy Bird and eat your food at the same time."

"No," I replied.  "I don't play video games while I eat."

"That's good, " he said.  "Because I saw a video of someone who did, and he threw all his food on the floor because he got really mad at the Flappy Birds."

Oh. So I guess the moral of this story is, don't eat and do video games at the same time.  It's hazardous to one's floor.
