HUGE, VERY BIG, IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

In a moment of weakness I purchased a Minis Mix bag of chocolates. You know, the bags that have miniture versions of 3 Musketeers, Milky Way, Snickers, and Twix? The question I have is, Does anyone actually prefer Milky Way candy bars? In this house, they are the last to be eaten. I don't know of anyone who actually prefers them. Do you?
-----------------------------------
Maybe it's because we're out of the loop but I'm not particularly thrilled about any of the holiday movies. Am I missing something?
----------------------------------
Aggie football? Sure, I'll watch 'em play t.u. but I'm much more thrilled about Aggie basketball in which the men are ranked 12th and the women 13th according to the AP poll. Prediction, A&M men and women will make it to the Final Four. Do you have a favorite?
----------------------------------
Thanksgiving plans: enjoy a big meal with our neighbors. It will be a quiet holiday. We definitely don't mind that but will miss seeing family. What are your plans?

These are the best questions you've asked in a long time:

1. It goes snickers, Milky Way, Twix, Three Musketeers. That's even taking into account the celiac restriction with Twix. Milky Way is just a Snickers without the nuts. Three Musketeers tastes like chocolate styrofoam.

2. I think this looks really promising. Mary is played by Keisha Castle-Hughes who played "Paikea" in Whale Rider.

3. I am going to be in Ohio during the Michigan Vs. Ohio game this Saturday. I am looking forward to see what it feels like to be in a place where College football is taken to the next level, like at A&M.

4. Going to Little Rock!

My ranking is close to j-wild's, but I would eat a Twix before a Milky Way -- but I could go the rest of my life without a Three Musketeers bara.

The Fountain, Apocalypto

UCLA

We are all congregating in the hills of Tennessee so this is family year.

I can't say that I prefer a Milky Way to a Snickers, but there is something to be said for a Milky Way dark. . .mmmmmmm! I just love the idea of caramel drenched in dark chocolate. The only thing that could improve the combo for me is a cup of coffee on the side.

Other than "The Nativity," I haven't seen the prospect of any really impressive holiday movies either. I think some of the ones mentioned will be good movies, just not holiday in their themes.

I love sports, but I'm no good at predictions. I will be cheering for the Lady Tigers (LSU) and Lady Vols as much as possible, though.

My family always congregates near the homestead in Pulaski, TN. So, sister and I will be joining them for lots of food and family and laughter.

As for movies: "Bobby" is getting good press.

I would probably eat the Milky Way first, especially if they were Midnite Milky Ways.

Candy bars - I'm with j-wild completely except for the celiac thing.

Holiday movies - I want to see Dreamgirls. I don't know if its any good, but I want to see it anyway (always had a fantasy of starring in that movie - not playing the Diana Ross inspired part, but one of the others).

Sports - yeah, okay.

Thanksgiving - going to see the folks.

1. I eat the Milky Way because I don't eat peanuts. And I actually even like 3 Muskateers...you have to be a fan of nueget, which I am.

2. The only movie I'm truly excited about right now is "For Your Consideration", the 5th of the Christopher Guest movies. They are one of my reasons for living.

3. Eventhough the Horns (It's UT...don't they teach you how to spell at atm?)lost last week to KState, I will be with them to the end.

4. I will be here for Thanksgiving, cooking entirely too much food for the 3 friends I have coming over. I make a killer cranberry sauce.

Milky Way is one of my favorite candy bars. Of course, I can't think of many candy bars I don't like.

My all-time favorite probably is Butterfinger.

Sara, Laura and I are headed to St. Louis for Thanksgiving. We plan to enjoy family and friends - and I will continue to revel in the Cardinals' World Championship celebration.

I've been dealing with PMS most of this week, and as a result bought a big bag of Reese's Cups.

MY order would be Milky Way, 3 Musketeers, and Snickers, and the Twix would be out of the lineup! Ha!!

I don't know anybody who likes Milky Way anymore. I have a stockpile of candy for rewards at school, and those little suckers are always the last to be picked.
----------------------
I wait 'til movies come to DVD and Blockbuster because it galls me to pay $10+ at a stinkin' matinee! So, all that to say is I'm not in the loop either.
--------------------
I'm an Aggie baseball fan because my nephew, Coby Mavroulis, played for them these past few years. He's now in the Washington National's farm program. They're converting him to pitcher, and he's the only softpaw IN THE WHOLE ORGANIZATION! Can you believe that? Well, that could explain the muddle the Nats are in all the time.
------------------------
My dog Max and I are going on a road trip for Thanksgiving. I live in Southern California and we're going to go to Santa Barbara for a couple of days. It just so happens that the football team of the high school I teach at will be in the second round CIF playoff game in Santa Barbara, so that worked out nicely!
-------------------
I like your HUGE, VERY BIG, IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ~ its nice to have a break from the world. I wear the Ira bracelet most everyday - it helps me to remember to pray for you all.
