How fast can you type?
The fastest I’ve ever been timed was 100 wpm, 3 errors; now it’s probably closer to half that.

What is your favorite online game?
I don’t play online games, but in the past when I discovered you could play with "real people", I enjoyed Backgammon and Spades. What a second…my favorite online "game" is blogging–it’s fun to do and there are definitely "winners" and "losers" ;).

On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 as highest), how intelligent do you think you are?
At the peak of my arrogance (and probably my intelligence), I would’ve said 9; now, I’m doing well to say I register "above average". Each time I gave birth, I’m pretty sure I lost brain cells.
Main Course
Name three of your best teachers from your school years.
Mrs. Booth, 3rd grade, (she was w o n d e r f u l the year my mom died); Mrs. Callahan , 4th grade (she saw so much potential in me, nurtured and encouraged leadership skills, and instilled a strong sense of self confidence); Mrs. Allen, 8th grade (she was tough as nails, but she LOVED her students and pushed us HARD, but oh, how we rose to her high standard and expectations!)
Dessert
What are your plans for this upcoming weekend?
Kids’ soccer games tonight and tomorrow, going out with friends tomorrow night, cleaning and getting ready for a baby shower at my house for Sunday afternoon.
Never done a Friday’s Feast before? This one took ten minutes and it’s an easy post when you need an easy post ;).
oh cool…a bb shower! i love that! and i forgot, blogging is like an online game, u are right! great feast…
I hear ya about losing brain cells every time you have kids! 😡
Selena
I think the losing of brain cells comes with age — I only have four-legged kids and my brain cells are evaporating daily. 😉
Have a good weekend!
what about Conradine Henderson? I thought for sure you’d mention her in the teacher section!
if you get a chance, you should try the sudoku puzzles
Wonderful feast! Loved your salad and dessert! Mine is up…come on over!
Salad: I always think I”m smart, too until I watch Jeopardy.
(actually, sometimes I can answer many questions. Other nights I just stare.)
Hey newbies, welcome (Jenny R, Selena and Kim)!
SGirl…I bet I’m older than you…so I’ve lost MORE! (Is this a contest, lol? Are there PRIZES???).
LCO, you need a prize for that! I’m totally impressed you tracked down ol’ Connie’s name, and she was a good one, just not the top three. Maybe if she had let me KEEP my Sue Bee Honey jar full of liquor in the fifth grade…;)!
Pamela, I think I’ve won a million a few times on Regis’ show…at least I knew the answer to that question (not necessarily the ones leading up to it).
