I was among many to be tagged by ProfessorGQ concerning the following questions.
This probably my first and last tag. :)

Questions from the Professor:

If you were to be the opposite sex for one day, what would you do?
Go to the gym. Just jivin' baby. :)

If you had to name the most difficult thing about being a teenager today, what would you say? Peer pressure is on the next level.

If you had to name the most embarrassing moment of your life, when was it?
That would probably be the time that I ask my 4th grade teacher if I could use the restroom and she said no. The rest was a bit sloppy.


If you had to name the most overrated actor in Hollywood, who would it be?
Tom Cruise

Indecision

If you could go back for one minute to the Garden of Eden and give Adam advice, what would you say?
See if you can get two of them

If you were to name the best “I told you so” you ever got to deliver, what was it?
That would be to myself. That’s the time that I let a friend stay with me for a few days. It turned out to be a few months.

Sing

If you could have a lifetime 50 percent discount in any single store at your local mall, which store would it be in?

No pets!

If you could have God perform one miracle today, what would you want it to be?
Erase Racism!

If you could spend next New Year’s Eve doing anything, what would you do, and with whom?Simple, It would be with my wife, family and friends.

If you were to set your country’s immigration policy, what would it be?
First, I would give Texas, Arizona, and California back to it’s rightful owners and go from there.

Do you!

If you could have one person you have lost touch with call you up tonight and invite you to dinner, who would you want it to be?
One of my old Navy friends from Oakland.

If you could change on thing about your love life, what would it be?
I wouldn’t change a thing. Right or wrong, It has made me the man I am today.

If you could have prevented one book from ever having been written, which book would it be?
I love books!

If you have to name the best music album ever recorded, which would you select?
Marvin Gaye- What’s Going ON (nuff said)

My name in the book of Life

Hello! I think that I've seen you around Poi's blog. I love dogs and other animals, but I just don't want to take care of them. :)

Good answers stephen.
I thought about copying it but it asks some hard questions...some I might not want to reveal.

Stephen A. Bess said...

tu s tin-
Hey, I understand. It's not too bad though. I'm probably still a mystery to people that know me. I know that I am a mystery to myself. :)

poi-
Thanks and have a great weekend!

The thing I was most surprised with was your trait you would like to change about you and you said, indecision. I NEVER would have thought you to be indecisive.

And I wish I had my own blog! But I do not have the time. I work 2 jobs and go to school and that keeps me too busy as it is. But I have a couple I read regularly at one of my jobs. (SSHH, don't tell my boss)

If I do not get back here today, have a great weekend!

I can be indecisive when fear steps in. I find myself hesitating because of fear of failure. I seem to be overcoming that though. Thanks! Have a great weekend!

I'm not a fan of tags but this was actually a good one. I liked your answers. You poor thing with that horrible teacher - that type of experience sticks with you!

Stephen A. Bess said...

nml-
Haa ha! :) Yes, It was humiliating and although I can laugh about it I can never forget it.

Waddie G. said...

Stephen A. Bess said...

profGQ-
Yeah, she's no Patti! :)

Michelle said...

These were great answers -- loved the 'God whispering in your ear' comment. The Adam and Eve commment -- typical man (lol & smh @ u.) Hope all is well in your world. You working on that invention?

Stephen A. Bess said...

Michelle-
Haa ha! I know. That Adam comment got me in trouble with my wife. :)
All is well in my world. No inventions yet. Just chillin'
