FOUR FOR FRIDAY
Q: If you were offered the opportunity to have cost-free and risk-free plastic surgery, would you? If so, and you're comfortable sharing, what do you think you'd have done?
Yes, I think I would. Iíd probably have a touch of liposuction performed around my waist, but Iíd wait at least one year from now to make a final decision about that. You see, Iím on a medically supervised weight loss program that appears to have dramatic results, and Iíd like to see it thru to the end.
Q: Should the U.S. Constitution be amended to allow a naturalized citizen to run for president?
Yes, but with the condition that any naturalized citizen seeking the Presidency must have been a citizen in good standing for at least 10 years.
Q: Do think you'll spend more, less, or about the same amount money on holiday gifts this year as you did last year?
Probably more, which isn't saying much, but it's a start :-)
Q: Would you rather vomit marbles or sweat cheese?
Oh, vomit marbles, for sure. I hardly ever vomit (canít say the same about sweating), and I betcha that marbles smell a whole lot better than your standard fare of vomit.

Q1 - No, I'd stay ugly old me. With plastic surgery as easy as changing clothes, the more vapid will start swapping bodies du jour like crazy. And they'll look all the same, like those people in Brave New World.
Q2 - Yes.
Q3 - Probably about the same.
Q4 - I'd rather not vomit at all.
1. I confess, I would have something done. I would have my chins sucked out. I would really like to get rid of the waddle.
2. That's a tough one. I think probably yes, we have really become a global society. English must be the primary language. What? Is that asking too much?
3. Less money, more time. Many quilting gifts. Well, actually when it's all said and done, probably more.
4. I hate to vomit... yuck! How long did it take you to think of this question?
Q1. Definitely. If it makes me feel better about myself, why not?!
Q2. No.
Q3. The sameóA lot! I love Christmas shopping!!!
Q4. Neither. Yuck! I donít like to vomit or sweat.
1. No
2. No
3. Just a tad bit more.
4. As long as my vomiting was limited to the few times I currently vomit, then I'd go with the marbles...hopefully small ones.
1. I would consider lipo on my thighs.
2. Argh. Yes, probably, but I hate to say that because if it happens Arnold will probably become President someday.
3. Less
4. Definitely vomit marbles
1. Of course I would!!! Tummy tuck and face-lift. I'd also have my appendectomy scar removed (is that the right word?). Definitely.
2. No - my liberal friends probably won't approve, but . . .
3. Definitely more money and more time - it's been a good year, baby!
4. Vomit marbles, with the caveats noted by others above.
1. Yes, Face lift(just a little bit... to erase what Internet viewing has done to my eyes :-)
2. Yes
3. Prices always go up. So I will spend more.
4. Vomit Marbles.... YUCKY word image: "sweat cheese"!
Q1: Most likely I wouldn't. Unless lasik was considered plastic surgery.
Q2: Hm... If you think of patriotism as a religion, it would make sense. The converts always believer harder/more than anyone else.
Q3: Probably (hopefully) a little bit more.
Q4: Vomit marbles, definitely. I like cheese and I fear that sweating the stuff would turn me off of my major food group.
1 - You know, you would have had me except you left out "pain-free." If you had said "pain-free," then I would have said, "lipo on my ass! Again and again and again!" But you didn't say "pain-free."
2 - Yes. If you are worried about Ahnahld loonies, we grow them just as nutty here. See Oval Office for Exhibit A. Otherwise, we all trace our ancestors back to immigrants...even Native Americans if you go far enough back, according to the most widely accepted theories. Also, immigrants have held many very powerful office. Some might even argue that those offices were more powerful than the president's, at least in those specific areas. Madeleine Albright being the one leaping to mind at the moment.
3 - The Same. Our family no longer gives gifts. We agreed that, given the growing size of the family through marriages, the cost of travel to get to see each other, the fact that we all work hard to pay bills and improve our futures, that none of us have any real need for presents, and the main pleasure that we have in the holidays is actually seeing one another, the best present that we could give would be the lack of stress in shopping and spending extra money and the fun of just hanging out. We did, however, agree to amend this should any children join the family - which will be happening when my brother's wife gives birth in January. We can spoil the child until he's ten. So, next year, I'll be spending tons on Junior, probably with a mini-drum set, or finger paints, or something equally obnoxious and fun.
4 - Cheese! I just love cheese! Rally I do. Seriously, vomitting marbles is within the realm of possibility; but sweating cheese? What size pores must you have? What kind of mushrooms did you have in your omelette when you thought this one up, dude? I choose C: None of the above.
By the way, what ever happened to those secrets from all of those weeks ago.......?
Q2: This may surprise some, but my answer to number 2 is NO. I don't believe a naturalized citizen should be allowed to become President. There is no guarantee anyone who is President really has the best interest of our country in mind; however, there is a higher probability a naturalized citizen won't be 100% loyal to the United States.
Like Lee, I will opt for the less liberal side on this matter.
Nice Blog Mikal.
I would not... as it would only raise expectations beyond delivery capability;
Sure, why not, otherwise lets restrict it to native americans -- but some minimum period should be required, perhaps 20 years;
I don't spend anything, so the same. I let my wife handle it and she does it well;
Cheese obviously as it can be reduced to liquid form, and it would make me smell better than I probably do.
Have a great day.
1. I would probably go in for a follicular transplant. I always wanted thick hair, never had though.
2. Should a naturalized citizem become prez? Well, yes, all citizens should have the same rights, especially after they have stayed for a specified time in the US. And hopefully not all of them will be like the amoral Kissinger.
3. Less. Budgets are rather tight this year.
4. Vomit marbles because then I can wash up and play with 'em. Losng my marbles might not be that bad after all! :)
Starting to lose my hair...I only wanna be bald by choice.
I'm against amending the constitution because it's only an issue due to Ahnold. Philosophically if a person has put in their time to become citizen & been here for a long ass while then they should have the same rights as home grown citizens else but this should be at the bottom of the to do list of our country right now directly below outlawing gum chewing.
More money...goes up every year.
What?...there are too many qualifier questions I'd have to ask before being able to answer this...the first one being what kind of cheese?
