Random list of questions....
With a nod to hayes, here's my list of questions for the Fasting of Geneveans.



1. Where are you from?

2. What do you do?

3. Where are you going?

4. Do you wanna rock?

5. Who is your favorite James Bond actor?

6. Coke or Pepsi?

7. And which World Cup qualification game did you follow last night?



My answers:



1. Me, I'm from USA.

2. I'm in IT - looking for a job here.

3. I'm going to do laundry.

4. Yes, I wanna rock.

5. Daniel Craig, Sean Connery second.

6. Coke - can't stand Pepsi.

7. Germany vs. Finland. Wow!!! What a game. Finland was very tough, Klose finally returned to form.

Oh hai Zonker. Sorry about that -- when I said 'blistering new thread' I probably should have added 'for some values of blistering'. But OK, here goes.



1. UK via SE

2. Professionally I go places and look up. Then I go home and spend a lot of time going mad. It's a matter of finding the right balance.

3. I'm following the big guys. Going where I should be going, where they tell me to go, and kidding myself that it's untrodden territory. Of course in a sense it is since nobody has trodden it quite like me before. That's little comfort.

4. I'm more of a roll man

5. I wasn't aware there were Bonds other than Sean Connery.

6. You can't get kicked out of bars for doing Pepsi in the toilets. So Pepsi. (The real answer Coke: the red one; Full Fat.)

7. Red Sox vs. the Rays. Big :tear: to see AL East thrown down the pan.

1. I'm from Geneva. But as Jeffery Eugenides would probably say (and write?), I'm the tip of a genetic iceberg, a probabilistic tree scattered among Europe converging to my apparition.



2. I'm answering the best I could to this thread. Not quite easy, I only learned how to read and write five months ago.



3. Due to the Principle of Incertitude of Heisenberg, being writing at my desk in a well defined spatial position, I cannot tell my real speed, and since I don't have a definite speed, I'm probably going everywhere...



4. I wanna rock. I'm a geologist.



5.Sean Connery for the ancient movies. Craig for the new ones.



6. I can't understand what people find good or funny in the coke. I tried to sniff some, and the delicate mix between the bubbles, the phosphoric acid and the aromas destroyed my sinuses. I did the same with the pepsi (but there is pepsine in it). I stick to beer.



7. I watched a game last night. I didn't quite understand who against who it was (they wore no uniforms), and what were the rules (the round was kind of long, and the camera was too close to the action to have a big picture of the game). There was a man (prob. the referee) and two girls in some kind of sweaty, gentle struggle. At the end, all looked happy and pretty satisfied. I cheered and got interested by sports the first time of my life.

Go, Red Sox!



I was raised just outside of Boston, so I love my BoSox. They will take the penant and get to the World Series. No doubt.

Indeed, but against a team that's a little more exciting than Colorado please.



In fact, exactly one year ago today the Mets were 7 (yes, seven) games up, and managed to finished 2nd in NL East and also miss the wildcard. Heh, stupid Mets. So yeah, there's still a bit of time.

Gosh, I hope you don’t’ mind me answering these questions even though I’m still a lowly American living in the USA who wishes one day  to be live in presence of all you lovely people in GVA…but anyway…here goes

 

1. Born and raised in New Orleans but live near NYC right now. (so, I understand “ya’ll”  or “YO!” language)
2. Office manager for a Finance firm but looking to move to GVA in November to get a job … Ha! That should be fun!
3. I’m wandering aimlessly at the moment.  Can someone tell me where to go, please?
4. ROCK-N-ROLL is more my speed but I like living La Vida WITHOUT the Loca
5. Daniel Craig….<<<HOT>>>…. But Pierce comes a close 2nd
6. Yuck! Wouldn’t touch the stuff.  Bad for the teeth. :D
7. There was a World Cup qualifications game on last night?  Hmmm…  (but glad to hear Zonker is a Red Sox fan!  - just as long as you aren’t for the Yankees– eeeek! )

 

 

P.S. – Minda, I’m with you – Syd, what are you smokin’???;)
