Chuck!!!! Great job on this! I'm so sorry I haven't been by sooner, but your blog wasn't updating on my blog roll! NOt that it matters now, that you can't even get on the internet to get this message just yet.

Oh, these are good! I'm with you on cell phones (but I still have one to keep track of the kids) and Facebook. I like that you love kittens and your sisters. And I need a lot of sleep too. Good post today, Chuck. We all learned a lot about you.
That was great! I think I will try that out over at my blog! Great answers, too!
Clara, Why am I not surprised? When people ask, "How are you?" I frequently reply, "Compared to what?" If they say, "Yesterday." I usually resond, "I'm older and uglier." And yes, I do get some interesting responses.
