Saturday 9

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions!

Saturday 9: Mercy (2013)


Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) In this song, Shawn Mendes pleads with the girl he loves to be careful with his heart. Clearly he feels she's more important to him than he is to her. Do you believe that, in every relationship, someone always loves more?
In many of the relationships I know, this is true.

2) He says that he'd willingly drive through the night just to be near her. Do you enjoy your time behind the wheel? Or do you consider driving necessary but not necessarily pleasurable?
I used to enjoy driving, but now that I'm 80, I didn't renew my license this year, so I no longer drive.

 3) He acknowledges that she has good intentions, but she hurt him anyway. Can you think of a time when you unintentionally hurt someone's feelings?
Yes. 

4) Shawn Mendes was a serious skateboarder during his high school years. Crazy Sam admits she's never even been on a skateboard. How about you? Are you more like Shawn or Sam, or are you somewhere in between
If I were on a skateboard, I'd break many bones.  I have never been on one.

5) While in his teens, he taught himself to play guitar while watching YouTube videos. Do you spend a lot of time on YouTube? If yes, what type of videos do you watch most often?
I don't watch a lot on You Tube.  I always watch new Randy Rainbow videos, I watch videos that my son posts, and I watch videos that I find links to that look interesting.

6) When he's traveling or busy working, Shawn eats cold cereal for every meal -- breakfast, lunch and dinner. He says it's fast, tasty, and better than the fast food he'd grab otherwise. Will you be getting any meals "to go" this weekend?
We just came home from 5 days "away" so we won't be getting any "to go" meals this weekend!

 7) In 2016, the year this song was popular, Game of Thrones was TV's hottest show. Were you a fan?
No, I never could get into it.  Tried a few times, but never liked it.

8) Also in 2016, a German shorthaired pointer won Best in Show at the Westminster Dog Show. Tell us about a dog who holds a special place in your heart.
We've had a lot of dogs and they were all special.  Our current dog, Bubba, is a vehement lap dog and loves to sit in the lap of anybody who will have him.  

9) Random question: What's the subject line of the top email in your spam folder?
Vote Forward.

  4. Vote forward? Interesting subject line. I am guessing that's Walt's sister, Jeri & Walt in the photo?

  5. I could never get into Game of Thrones either. Sorry that you have had to give up driving. I still do drive and can't imagine not being able to anymore. And I adore little lap dogs! They are fun. Take care of yourself.
