Patrick's Saturday Six - Episode 138

Patrick conveyed his regrets thusly: "Sorry about the delay in getting this week's edition up. I had to make a return trip to the doc-in-a-box because I had something of a relapse: this time, it's an ear infection on the other side."

"But first, Jude of "My Way" was first to play last week! Congratulations, Jude!"

Here are this week's "Saturday Six" questions. Either answer the questions in a comment here, or put the answers in an entry on your journal...but either way, leave a link to your journal so that everyone else can visit! To be counted as "first to play," you must be the first player to either answer the questions in a comment or to provide a complete link to the specific entry in your journal in which you answer the questions. A link to your journal in general cannot count. Enjoy!

1. What is the last fruit or vegetable juice you drank? How long ago did you drink it?
I had a V-8 on Saturday evening. That's about 30 hours ago as I answer this question.
2. Which are more likely to have on hand: fresh fruit and vegetables or fresh juice?
Fruits and vegetables. The juice is canned or frozen...
3. Does a negative movie review make you less likely to see the movie? Does a positive review make you more likely to see it?
Depends on the review and the reviewer. Roger Ebert's opinion carries more weight than, say, Chris Smith of the Bangor Daily News.
4. Take the quiz: What gender is your brain?

Your Brain is 27% Female, 73% Male

You have a total boy brain Logical and detailed, you tend to look at the facts And while your emotions do sway you sometimes... You never like to get feelings too involved

What Gender Is Your Brain?

5. Which line of description in the results best describes you?
The second line.
6. The U.S. Mint has announced a plan to reintroduce one-dollar coins, this time with former presidents. Would you use one-dollar coins, or is paper still the way to go?

Until such time as the U.S. Mint abolishes paper one dollar bills, dollar coins are doomed to failure, except in the vending and other mechanized money handling industries (toll booths, subways, etc.). I have used dollar coins in the past and will continue in future, but they must get away from sizing them almost the same as quarters. There was something comforting and pleasant about having two or three silver dollars in my pocket when I was a youngster. Better to do away with the penny and fifty cent piece and adopt a decent sized dollar coin.
