Saturday 9 - Old Me

 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 are today's questions!


Saturday 9: The Old Me (2020)

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

We're bidding adieu to the old year with a song 

about looking back. 

Thanks for participating in Saturday 9 during 2023.

1) In this song, the lead singer thanks his younger self for everything he learned from past experience. What's something you learned in 2023?
I do not have colon cancer. 

2) He admits he did some things he wished he hadn't. Did you do anything in 2023 you wish you could take back?
Not that I can think of.

3) This music video consists of old photographs. Do you have many photos lingering on your phone or camera? Or are you prompt about downloading them?
Both.  I download them, but I also keep them on my camera.

4) This week's featured artist is 5 Seconds of Summer, a band from Australia. Have you ever been to the land down under? If not, would you like to go?
I spent 6 weeks in Western Australia in 2003.

5) In 2020, when this song was popular, "murder hornets," aka the giant Asian hornet, were spotted for the first time in the United States. Are you afraid of bugs?
I'm not sure I'd call it "afraid," but I'm not fond of bugs.

6) Enough about 2020! Let's look back on 2023. Did you travel this past year?
Once.  We drove to Santa Barbara for our son's birthday party in July.

7) What was the biggest purchase that you made in 2023?
I bought a mixer for Jeri for Christmas.  I also had special puzzles made for the kids for Christmas gifts.  (They were not cheap!)

8) What was your favorite book of 2023?
"As You Wish," the story of the making of Princess Bride.

9) What are you looking forward to most in 2024?
Seeing the end of #45, hopefully in jail, but if he can't be jailed, at least convicted...and not elected.
