Q1.I, (or should that be we?) use the microwave the most for reheating as this saves quite a bit of time as we both work.Having said that,we also use the conventional alot on the week-ends.
Q2. Umm, not quite sure about this one? I will use your question but answer it about an Aussie women's basketball team and say "No"! I don't go to live sports games (of any nature).
Q3. I feel most comfortable in boxers and that's it! Why? Because the weather is nice all year round.
Q4. Wow that's a tough one? Mainly because I had to read the question about three times! ha ha ha... Anyways back to your question, I would have loved to have been on "Hogan's Hero's". Again, I hear you ask "why"? Well, I watched the movie (can't remember the name, sorry) on his life. Man, what a life!!
P.S. keep up the great work Mikal
LAURIE (your Aussie mate!)
1. Microwave
2. Nope - not into basketball
3. At home - tshirt w/ no bra and panties. In public during warm wx - shorts & tank w/ no bra & sandals. Sense a theme here?
4. If I had a pet that could do a cool trick I'd love to be on that pet trick show on animal planet and win some cash.
1) I use the Microwave most, but sometimes it is nice to use a conventional oven since microwaves aren't good for all things. Don't have a toaster oven.
2) Probably not. I know it is heresy here in Indiana, but I am not a huge sports fan. The only sport I really like is cycling, so if they had a 'Tour de France' come through town, then I would try to catch that.
3) I depends on the weather and my mood. Right now, I am just in a sweatshirt and pajamas :-)
4) I don't watch TV, but I often thought I could win Ben Stein's money.
Q1: While I use the microwave significantly more than the conventional oven, I must say that I'm a big fan of the toaster over. My Grandparents had a toaster oven in their kitchen, and I have many fond memories of toasting bagels and making killer grilled cheese sandwiches in that thing.
Q2: My knee-jerk reaction is to say yes, I would attempt to see the games in person; but as I say that, we're just a few weeks away from the Women's Final Four (which is being held less than a mile from my home), and I haven't done anything yet about scoring tickets. If I don't make it to see any of this year's Women's games, I'll try my hardest to score tickets to next year's Men's Final Four, which is will be held here in Indianapolis.
Q3: Right now I'm pretty fond of a pair of off-white painter's pants from Old Navy. They just fit right, so I tend to wear them a lot.
Q4: I'd like to make a guest appearance on The Apprentice. I'd sit in for George, and I'd get to follow and evaluate the would-be Donalds (Iíd be brutal).
Q1) Conventional oven. Hands down. I also reheat most things on the stove.
Q2) Nope.
Q3) I have this brown v-neck sweater that seems to make an appearance on weekends even though I have a dozen other similar things to choose from.
Q4) I would have been on the Love Boat as a jewel thief, and I also would have pushed the bitchy captain's daughter overboard. (Had you asked game show, I would have said Match Game circa '74 to '78.)
1. Microwave is most often used. Personally, I hate all of them. I hate cooking. Cooking is an obnoxious means to a more obnoxious end, eating. It would be far more efficient to consume via IV.
2. No way!!! Why bother. I just had the NBA All Star game in my backyard, and didn't participate in any of the hoopla. I'm happy that Denver received the economic shot, but glad the show is over.
3. Jeans, boxer briefs, dress socks, and a Hawaiian shirt (winter). A pair of Patagonia shorts, athletic socks, and a Hawaiian shirt (summer).
4. Ed, and I would be a Carol Vesey fling. Of course, I would get a chance to kiss the young lady.
1. It's a toss-up between the microwave and conventional. We don't own a toaster oven.
2. Wouldn't consider it for a moment.
3. Boxers and a tee, at home. Lots of variables when not at home.
4. What Not to Wear or How Do I Look? I'd be the guest on the show and have a blast!
A1: Convention oven...nothing better, other an a good, wood-fired stove.
A2: Nah...not an organized sport's fan.
A3: Nothing quite like a good pair of Patagonia pants (or Stand-Up Shorts), t-shirt, and Dansko sport clogs with Smartwool TrailRunner socks. Throw on a long-sleeve shirt and fleece vest for cooler weather. For all-out summer...Patagonia Stand-Up Shorts, t-shirt, and sandals. Guess underwear are in there somewhere!
A4: None that I can think of.
1. I use a conventional oven to heat up potatoes. I use the stovetop to cook everything else. I rarely use a microwave...never know how those waves will affect my body down the road. I have a toaster oven, but never use it.
2. Sure, I'd go to a game. I'm sure it would be a lot of fun...the crowed all whipped into a frenzy.
3. A comfortable pair of jeans with a cozy sweater in winter, or a nice fitted T-shirt in summer, or a sundress with sandals . I'm more on the casual side. I can't stand wearing heels or being dressed in a suit.
4. Maybe a contestant on Jeopardy! But, I'd probably be too nervous to answer correctly.
I answered on my site...

I posted my answers on my blog.
Good questions! Thanks.
Q1: Tied between micro and conventional
Q2: None of them, not into basketball at all
Q3: Flannel pj's
Q4: I would like to play one of Tommy's sisters on Rescue Me
Microwave.
No, and I too live in Indy.
Boxers.
Seinfeld - Kramers mysterious younger brother named Stratum.
1. Conventional oven, definitely. I'm still afraid that frequent microwaving causes cancer.
2. No. Enough said.
3. The pair of jeans that I have on today. They make my legs look long, my basket and butt look great.
4. I want to be on the Young and the Restless. I would play a stranger with a secret about one of the main characters, and I would spend most of my airtime heavily shadowed in the corner.
1. I use the microwave the most but I like the conventional oven better.
2. No.
3. These stretchy pants which are soft, but I'm not quite sure what it's made of. Perfect for lounging around in.
4. I'm not sure I want to be in a television show...
Q1: Conventional oven with convection: I sleep better with a fan on.
Q2: No. In fact, I might not come out from under my sofa until they've torn down the nets.
Q3: My blue, padded, push-up bra. Because I'm not as likely to be mistaken for Fidel Castro. Other than that, anything cotton without buttons or darts.
Q4: Sonny and Cher Show. I want to be Cher when she dressed-up in the Native American headdress and sang "Half Breed" onstage from horseback. Or, I want to be on a Brady Bunch episode. Any Brady, any episode.
