Which means it must be time for The Thursday Thumb-Twiddler<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1. If there were to be a televised, public execution broadcast in prime time, would you watch it?<\/b><\/p>\n

Yes, I think I would.<\/p>\n

Part of it would be the morbid curiosity factor. But part of it would be the belief that, if I support a society that does such things (executing criminals), I ought to be willing to participate in it to the extent of witnessing it.<\/p>\n

2. If you could mold to your liking your memories of any past experiences, would you do so?<\/b><\/p>\n

With great caution, yes. There are a few memories that cause me serious wincing as to how I made an ass of myself. None are of any great significance, except in my own head, and I think I could do without the bone-jarring stupidity of them.<\/p>\n

3. The excitement of the Holiday Season is long over. What “big day” are you looking forward to next?<\/b><\/p>\n

Well, my birthday is come and gone. We’ve our vacation to the UK coming up in a few weeks (!). We’ve an anniversary coming up in April, but I’d say that the next Milestone is Katherine’s birthday in May. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
