Thurvey 12/15/2011

After a long post Thanksgiving hiatus the Thurvey (Thursday Survey) staff is rested and the weekly questionnaire extraordinaire is back in production. You know the world is in desperate need of your reasoned input, but you you just haven't had a soapbox to stand on. Step right up, your box is ready. Just be careful. The thing that no one tells you about a soapbox is that it may get very slippery. To respond to any of the Thurvey questions simply type your answer in the comment box below, click "anonymous", and click "publish". If the comment box does not appear below, click on the tiny "comments" below and it should appear. If you want to be unanonymous, simply give us your name with your comment.

Christmas questions

#1 Have you ever roasted chestnuts on an open fire? Or rode in a one horse open sleigh? What is your favorite Christmas song that includes things that you have never done?

#2 What Christmas song do you like least (or drives you crazy)?

#3 Have you ever substituted words in Christmas songs to amuse yourself or annoy others? If so, share with a larger audience. I would give my own examples, but, I don't want to steal anyone else's thunder.

#4 What is the best Christmas gift you ever received? Feel free to list Jesus first, but then give us the next best.

#5 Some folks have started donating to charities as part of their exchanging of gifts. What charity would you recommend to give to and why?

Political questions

#5 We are coming to the end of another year. What were the greatest, or worst I suppose, political or government mistakes of the year? (By candidates, legislatures, governors, Congress, President . . .) You may include stupid quotes if you wish. To get going on the quote thing, google Christine O'Donnell or Rick Perry or Herman Cain. Sorry Michele, you've just been a little too sane lately.

#6 So, who are you presently supporting in the Republican Presidential nominee race? I know this question has been asked, but the issue is fluid. It runs downhill . . . This question is not just for Republicans by the way. Tell us the reason for your current position. Feel free to flip flop. It seems to be the trend.

#7 What do you think about the Alabama Immigration law now? How should the State proceed?

#8 A recent study said Alabama is the worst State in the nation regarding the plight of homeless children. What, if anything, should be done?

Other stuff

#9 How bad is Bama going to beat LSU in the rematch?

#10 What question of your own would like answered?

  1. In response to Question 6, I am a firm supporter of Newt, because I'm rich and his tax plan is so regressive.

    Concerning Question 8, the State of Alabama needs to take a page out of my man, Newt's playbook. Put those kids to work as janitors. Save up a little money, and pretty soon they'll be able to afford a place of their own. With a newly acquired work ethic along with some serious job skills, their social mobility will go through the roof! More hard work and before you know it they'll be smack dab in the middle of the American Dream, and at thirteen years old, no less! That way the State Government can get their hands off our children! That sort f intervention by government is just inappropriate!

  2. I like your Thurveys. I like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer because AJ (my oldes) likes to sing it. My favorite Christmas present was my first radio and the Madonna tape I got with it. I have to say the best was getting engaged on Christmas but those 2 gifts are polar opposites. For #7, I am not a fan. I keep the kids in mind and at heart and they deserve so many chances and this has caused so much worry and sadness for them and I will keep the rest of my opinion off-line ;)
