Thanks to our hostess, Crazy Sam, for today's questions! You can join in HERE!
Drive to You
Welcome to Saturday 9. We've committed to our readers that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so to speak. We encourage you to visit other participants' posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!
Saturday 9: Drive to You (2006)
Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it here.
1) In this song, Jewel sings that she can't sleep and is staring at the ceiling. Did you fall asleep easily last night? Yes, I did. I usually do.
2) She concludes that the only thing to do is drive to her lover's side. Last time you got behind the wheel, where were you headed? Il Forno Italian Restaurant, last night, I had dinner with Wilma and Livia. The Veal Parmesan was delicious. I took this photo of the mural by our table.
3) Jewel grew up in Alaska. Have you ever visited our largest state? No.
4) She once performed at the Sydney Opera House, which is more than 7,300 miles away from Anchorage. There are no direct commercial flights between those two cities. Given your choice, would you rather spend less on travel but have to change flights, or spend more and fly non-stop to your destination? Non-stop for sure.
5) Actor Sean Penn developed a crush on Jewel after seeing her perform on TV and attended many of her concerts during her 1995 tour. What's the best concert you ever saw? I've not gone to too many concerts. Probably Bette Midler, way back in the early 80s.
6) She married Ty Murray, a successful rodeo cowboy. Have you ever attended a rodeo? No.
7) In 2006, the year "Drive to You" was released, Al Lewis died. He was best known as Grandpa on The Munsters. It's time for you to declare where you stand on this issue: do you prefer The Munsters of The Addams Family? I liked them both but will give the #1 vote to The Addams Family.
8) 2006 was a very good one for tennis pro Roger Federer. He reached the finals in all four Grand Slam tournaments and won three. What's the last game you won? (Yes, Wordle counts.) Aggravation at Danon and Mali's house a month ago.
9) Random question: Using one word, how would you describe 2024 so far? Awesome.

Note: I am taking the next week off. I'll check in when I can but won't be blogging while I'm gone. If you have a prayer list, please add me for safe (and healthy) travels. Thanks!!
