I've had Thursday Thunks in my Google Reader FOR.EVER ... well ... maybe not that long, but for a long, long time, but I never participated because there was something else to post on Thursdays that brought far more gawkers visitors my way. Now that I've spent some time reflecting on my participation in that meme, I decided this might just be my new Thursday habit.
This week we will answer some crazy questions brought to you by
Kimber, the number 70, and the color mellow.
Kimber, the number 70, and the color mellow.
1. If you were to start a meme (or a second or third), what would you call it and what day would you pick?
I've become a HUGE fan of photography memes. Since becoming somewhat disenfranchised with where Half-Nekkid Thursday (HNT) has gone, I'm thinking a clothed, self-portrait meme would be nice. A name? How 'bout Picture Me Saturday. Wait ... that would make it PMS ... maybe Picture Me Wednesday would be a better choice!
2. When a celebrity endorses a product, do you really believe they like it/use it?
I believe they've seen it at least once and have been paid a lot of money to make me believe they like it!
3. Why don't zombies ever just eat each other?
Everyone knows Zombie brains lack nutritional value. NOMM ... NOMM ... NOMM ...
4. If you were an elephant, would you rather roam free or be in a zoo?
Let me roam! I'd rather spend a few good years out in the wild, going wherever the herd leads me, than being cooped up with some zoo cell mate named Bubba.
5. The doorbell rings on October 31st, do you answer it?
Not this year I don't! One of our good friends is turning 40 and there is a surprise party for him on the 31st.
6. If you see a piece of paper on the ground while out & about, do you pick it up? If so, do you look to see what it is?
*giggle* I will usually pick it up. If it's pre-printed I won't read it but will just put it in the trash. If it's hand-written? I'm a snoop - I'll read every last word!
7. If Jon Gosselin and Octomom got married and then their own reality show, do you think she would try to get pregnant again for better ratings?
Octomom? No, but I think Jon might!
8. If Thursday Thunks was to be put on hold or quit completely, would you be sad?
Why yes I'd be sad! Just when I find a fun little weekly meme to replace HNT and you're threatening to take it away?!?! How dare you! *stomps feet and pouts*

First off, Good for you on the Change in Thursday...I applaud it. Although I would be upset if you didn't post any type of pictures...I have always said that you are a very creative photographer....
You have given me some food for thought this Thursday...
PMS- Good one :)
Have a good Thursday!

Yes, Zombies do lack nutritional value but the real reason they don't each other is the taste. I've eaten Zombie...It's HORRID!! Cheers Dana!!
Loved your answers! Too funny. Thanks for playing! :)
I've had a Zombie or two in my day. Oh, the drink, not the non-dead thingy. The meme was excellent as is your ability to incorporate photos into the subject.
I support this Thursday change thing too. I have a few thoughts of my own on this HNT thing and even started to blog about it, but changed my mind because I couldn't word it in any way that would avoid having some people be offended or hurt.
Anyway, "PMS" .. that was funny.
Joker_SATX, I think most "extreme" things in life are cyclic, and I started seeing things - both in myself and out there in the HNT blogsphere - that I didn't like. It was time to move on.
I am Harriet, what's funny about the PMS was that I had justification as to why Saturday would be such a great day for this meme but had to stop when I saw the shortened version!
Matt-Man, your sexual practices have no place on this wholesome blog *wink*
Kimber, just don't stop TT, OK?? OK??? Please, please, pulleeaase?? Will whining work?
Shiny Rod, isn't that a chick drink?
Jay, as I mentioned in an earlier comment, things (or maybe it was me) changed with HNT. I think I was really selling myself short and getting what was really "negative" attention that appeared to be ego stroking. Let's just say that people can only keep up appearances for so long, and then their true colors come out. Appearances kind of came crashing down on me recently.
How's that for a "coded" response?
I'd love to read your take on it ... you know ... if you wanted to email me the draft *hint*hint*
I hope your friend doesn't read your blog or there's no surprise now. ;-)
That was fun!
This is the first time I've ever thought about what it would be like to be an elephant. :)
Ok so if I say congratulations for making a mature decision you aren't gonna go run get nekkid again just to spite me now are you?
But "wholesome"?? Isn't that a bit of a stretch when you've only kept your clothes on for a few weeks?? *wink*wink*
Thanks for stopping by my playground. I appreciate it. Your PMS sounds like a great idea. And I can so picture jon doing just that. pffft...what a loser he is LOL. Have a great Thursday :)
Jayne d'Arcy, Pfffttt! No one reads my blog you silly!
Real Live Lesbian, I know I've felt like an elephant on occasion ... you know ... an elephant never forgets kind of thing!
snugs, I'm not so sure it was a mature decision per se. I really did like the photography aspect of HNT, but the realization that why I was participating was NOT why people were stopping by hit be up along side the head recently.
Now pardon me while I go strip down nekkid and take a few pictures!
Thom, I'm actually on the prowl for some new blogs to put on my reader list so chances are I'll be back!
I have seen this around...and you did damn good with it
I became disinterested in HNT when it became clear that people did not care about males participating and some of the HNT posts I was were more porno than HNT
Where'd HNT go? As far as I can tell, the same people (and then some) are playing along and having fun doing so.
Bond, I've seen a change in the way HNT is being played too ... or maybe I just opened my eyes and actually looked at what was always there? I don't know, it was just time to move on.
Hubman, it didn't go anywhere for most HNT-ers, just left this (former) HNT-er's blog!
I love your photography, so I hope you keep up with that in some aspect.
Great answers on the meme. The Evil Twin and I used to write fake grocery list with things like "a douche for my smelly t*at" or 5 Fleet enemas, and just whatever other ridiculous things we could think of and leave them on a store shelf while shopping! We're so immature! LOL.
PMS.... *snicker*
This is a cool meme. :)
Oh and I def agree, you are a fabulous photographer, I hope you find someway to keep it up!
I would shit if Octomom and John G got together.
Of course I wouldn't put it past the media frenzy these days.
