Great questions! I love Westminster clock chimes too.

Theresa Milstein said...

Although I do it from time to time, I'm not a big fan of chronic complaining either!

Jessica Bell said...

Aw .. you are the sentimental type aren't you! ARe you married? Tell her she's the luckiest gal alive :o)

S.A. Larsenッ said...

I'm with you on number 10. I'd love to play the piano, too. One of the talents I'm saving for the next life around. LOL

Talli Roland said...

FOOOOOOD!

It's a great word! I'm starving!

Tony Benson said...

Great answers, Michael. There's something comforting about the Westminster chimes. The sound is timeless, which is not bad for a clock.

Angela said...

So honest, to admit your least favorite word is no. Me too when I'm hearing it. But when I'm saying it, I think it's the best word in the world.

Cherie Reich said...

Great answers! And, I wish I could play the piano better. My fingers are too short. :(

Tanya Reimer said...

Welcome to the crusade. I love these blogfest questions, very fun.

Margo Benson said...

Great answers - 'Bitch' works even when it's whispered!

Jennifer Hoffine said...

I'm with you on #1 and 4!

And "Bitch" is so versatile. Great choice.

Unknown said...

Great answers! I love 'bitch' too. It's one of those curse words you can get away with and still send an undeniable message. And I learned something new about you: you play piano :))

The link was broken on your Mr. Linky name. Looks like you typed your url without the .blogspot.com. I think I fixed it, but I'm going to add a note on my post today with the link.

Thanks for playing along!

Katie said...

"No" is a very bad word, I must agree.

Ann said...

That was my children's lest favorite word too! Don't use it as much these days. Music, food for the soul.

Summer Ross said...

Michael-
Great answers! I wasn't expecting "B*tch" LOL I wouldn't want to be a politician either.

Jen said...

Great answers! Clock chimes - lovely!

Elizabeth Mueller said...

Hi, Michael! Funny, but my hubby would love to be a police officer. Lol.

I have an award waiting for you on my blog! :)

Donea Lee said...

I would so love to play the piano!! Never too late for lessons, right? :) Love your answer to #10! And I'm often too much a fan of food...

Raquel Byrnes said...

Wow, the clock chimes surprised me. I'll be they sound great.

Abby Minard said...

Ooh, I hate hammering. I always seem to hear it when I lie down for a nap.

Linda Gray said...

Clock chimes, that's a great answer! Love that sound! It is a wise man who does not want to be a policeman. ;)

LTM said...

oh, yes. Hammering, complaining... these are all terrible sounds. I think Bitch, when used at the right time, is SO. FUNNY. But I confess, my favorite curse is sh!t... it just jumps out there~ ;p <3

Unknown said...

NO! Cool answers. I haven't heard those clocks but I bet the sound wonderful.

Roland D. Yeomans said...

No -- definitely not my favorite word : especially when it comes from an agent concerning my query! Love your answers, Michael.

Becky Wallace said...

Great answers! Say "food" to this pregnant lady and she becomes a ravenous beast (or bitch depending on my mood).
