What was your worst cooking experience?
I have many bad cooking experiences, since I'm just terrible at it. But one of the most memorable mistakes I made was during my teen years. I was responsible for feeding my younger brother and sister at the time. I made some Campbell's condensed chicken noodle soup for them. When I poured it into their bowls, it seemed like there was a lot less than usual. It also tasted saltier than normal.
Then I realized I had forgotten to add water.

Did you order Girl Scout cookies this year? What kind?
I bought some from some Brownies selling outside the local grocery store; Thin Mints (two boxes, of course, my favorite); Peanut Butter Patties, and Thanks-A-Lot (shortbread w/ chocolate layer). All gone in a couple of days.
I sold these things myself over 35 years ago, so I had to help out the little Brownie girls. So selfless, am I.

Another one of those Vox questions I can't quite figure out.
25 most played songs ever? this week? today?
I don't use my ipod. I work at home most of the time, with visits to a warehouse style place where I also get to control the music, so I end up listening to whole CDs, not a song here and a song there.
So the top 25 most played songs for me lately are:
Mountain Goats, Get Lonely
- wild sage
- new monster avenue
- half dead
- get lonely
- maybe sprout wings
- moon over goldsboro
- in the hidden places
- song for lonely giants
- woke up new
- if you see light
- cobra tattoo
- in corolla
12 songs...
and
Bonnie "Prince" Billy, The Letting Go
add in a sprinkling of the Scissor Sisters "Ta-Dah" when I'm not working....
Which cartoon character best represents you?
Submitted by Know It All.
Trixie, from Speed Racer.
My hubby races around like a crazy person without thinking things through, and I help him in times of crisis. I also advise and direct him from afar (albeit not via helicopter).
But most of all, I am like Trixie because I want Speed Racer to be my secret boyfriend.
Oops! Secret's out! Good thing the husband never goes online....

What was your very first job?
Submitted by Laurel.
My first job was babysitting.
Is that too obvious?
After that....
In high school (at 16 and 17 years old, 1979-1980) I worked in a warehouse filling orders for a company that sold the ugliest hats, belts and accessories. I packed orders for UPS pick up. Oh my god, it was so awful All the items were made of straw, and were in the most horrid colors (neon yellows, oranges, aqua, etc.). These were supposed to be hip and cool accessories, and the company was extremely successful. I wish I had photos so I could prove how ugly these hats were to you all.
It was boring, but it paid my car expenses.
What are some of your favorite, forgotten albums that have stood the test of time?
Submitted by PeterGibbons.
If I forgot them, how can they be my favorites? And how could I list them here if I forgot them?
Am I the only one that is too literal here? Is it my mathematician brain?
