Prediction!

[Shominy]

True.

TPBM has spent a night in a lean-to.

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

Many years ago! My sister and I built one when we were kids. We didn't really think it through. I camped out in it one night. Not good.


TPBM has camped in the winter.

 

[Dtdh]

True, although it was a long time ago when I was a boy scout.

TPBM prefers a pencil to a ballpoint pen for writing (like I do).

 

[harman/kardon]

Absolutely true.

TPBM has written at least one nonvirtual letter in 2023.

 

[noogies]

No. I didn't even send letters before E-mail was invented.

TPBM is hoping for an early spring.

 

[Quadman2]

YES, with everything on my body that I can cross! Saw some green sprouts coming up...just hope this cold snap will not kill the plants!


TPBM would never, ever consider an all paid trip and stayover to the Antarctic.


Q

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

False! I would go in a nanosecond!


TPBM would join me on the aforementioned trip.

 

[Shominy]

Sure!

TPBM would like to have been a member of the Plaisted Polar Expedition in going to the North Pole.

I have the book about it, written by Charles Kuralt, who was along with them.

 

[harman/kardon]

False

TPBM would like to move to the Black Forest in order to get early Springs. (60° today and similar temperatures in the last days and forthcoming days.)
@noogies

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

False! I find that early springs are usually not quite ripe. The metal needs to fully mature before the spring can be installed in a vehicle and be reliable for the long haul.


TPBM now knows that my sense of humor is on full power right now.

 

[harman/kardon]

This is completely true!

TPBM, sitting in their truck or car, never did drive-by shootings.

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

False! I used to take pictures out of car windows a lot, from the passenger seat of course.


TPBM has taken amazing pictures from inside a moving vehicle.

 

[Shtig99]

This is true. I still occasionally attempt it, but nothing amazing ever comes of it.

TPBM becomes a different person when dealing with a car salesman

 

[harman/kardon]

True. But not successfully.

TPBM will never taste a Durian although people say that it tastes fantastic.

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

I don't know what a Durian is or if the opportunity to taste one will present itself. So I don’t know.


TPBM tries new foods when possible.

 

[Quadman2]

Fraid not! Usually stay with the known and appreciated.


TPBM would trip a friend if both were being chased by a grizzly bear.


Q

 

[Te-Te]

False ( but I would definitely run faster.)

TPBM has fainted before.

 

[SuperjazzyJa]

No, but came close once....while paying for groceries.



TPBM knows to run DOWNHILL if being chased by a bear, if possible. If not, bears have low centers of gravity and can't keep their balance running downhill since the center of gravity is now inverted.

Sounds good in theory, Sjj. In real life...let me know how it works out, eh?

Keep in mind that a griz can most often outrun a horse for the first 100 ft. Another, I hope never to prove!

Well, I didn't, but now I do, but now I'm not really sure...

TPBM knows that California's state animal is extinct
