5. Good Tuesday Morning, lioness!
1. My wife and I agreed to get married back in the Fall of 1998. (We already knew we were getting married, so the proposal was a formality.) We planned for about six months, and then got married in April, 1999. (Yesterday was our eighth anniversary.) We spent about $8,000, not including her wedding set, which cost that much all by itself.

2. Four or five. Like everybody else, I have a favorite pair that I wear much more than the others.

3. Three or four years ago. It was kind of cool. I always had thought I'd be totally bald before I ever got gray hair.

4. What part of India do your ancestors hail from?

5. Not too sure. I'm sure we can count on NYC to vote 'yes' on such a progressive piece of legislation, but the hicks from the sticks (New York State is mostly rural, after all) will vote 'no', as they always do.

18. I wish I could hear you speak, then.
I took a customer service call from Macy's once, and the caller was based in India. She had such a lovely accent (and I told her so), that I could have listened to her all day. :loveya:

20. Call it a gut feeling.
I don't really trust Spitzer. I can't put my finger on it or put it into words well, but there's something about the guy that tells me that he's too afraid of losing the righty rod and gun club vote. Equal marriage would be one of the quicker ways to do that. I love trap and skeet so I go shooting every time I'm in the state, but MAN, most of the people who frequent rod and gun clubs are well to the right of Rush Limbaugh.

11. Answers:
1. How long did it take to plan your wedding? How much did you spend?
Still in the middle of planning. I proposed in August, we're getting married this November. We've booked the location, photographer/videographer, band ... all the big stuff. But now we're down to minor details. I imagine we'll still be doing stuff the day before the wedding. As for budget, I don't really want to say. Suffice to say that it's an insane amount of money, and her parents are picking up almost the whole tab. I love them.

2. How many pairs of jeans do you own?
7 or 8. Not sure.

3. When did you start getting gray hair?
Don't have any

4. Ask me something please...i am bored
Genetic engineering. Your thoughts on the ethical dilemmas?

5. Do you think Eliot Spitzer will manage to pass an equal marriage bill in ny state soon-ish?
From what I understand, probably not. However, you can be consoled with the fact that the dude will probably be our president in 2016.

13. Um...kinda answers.
1.) Unmarried. $0...not planning on wedding.

2.)0

3.) I never have gotten one.

4.) What does it mean that Perez Hilton and the guy who publicized the Mentos trick are in the top 15 of the "Time Magazine Top 100 Most-Influential People of the Year" list as voted on by the public?

5.) No unfortunately. I think we (CT) will pass one a lot sooner. Fortunately, we're less than an hour away, even in the worst traffic.

24. Here are mine...
:hi:


1. How long did it take to plan your wedding? How much did you spend? I got engaged in December 1991 and really started planning and arranging in late January 1992. Got married in August 1992. All told, between the money I spent and the money my mother spent, about $9,000. I wanted a small, quiet wedding, but Mom wanted payback on all of her friends who had children who got married. It turned into a much larger wedding that I really wanted.

2. How many pairs of jeans do you own? Eight.

3. When did you start getting gray hair? When I was 22. I'll be 44 in a week.

4. Ask me something please...i am bored :( Are you still going to the gym? :) I found it hard to make myself go at first, but then I got used to it and actually like it now. :)

5. Do you think Eliot Spitzer will manage to pass an equal marriage bill in ny state soon-ish? I think so. I certainly hope so. :D

59. That is a great thought

34. Oi
1)(We celebrate 14 years of actual marriage today, we've been together longer)Hmm, don't remember, say three thousand dollars I guess.

2) Right now-- 4, I'm into yoga pants.

3) I'm honestly not sure-- in my twenties, my hair was different colors at different times but I'm sure it must have been somewhere around then.

4)What would be the single most important thing you could do to change the world?

5) I had to look that up, I think he'll give it a damn good try. He stuck up for it when others were chicken-shitting out about it.

50. very honestly i think chunky brown is not in fashion.
it seems that everyone has one chunk of color in their hair, or just low lights.

41. 1) A couple of hours, and about $2500.00.
2) Exactly none.

3) Not yet, and I'm 53. (There are some advantages to being an American Indian).

4) Why, oh why? And if not, why not?

5) Unfortunately, probably not. Though I wish it were otherwise.

42. Okie dokie.
1. How long did it take to plan your wedding? How much did you spend?
A while because I'm a "foreigner." It was a simple civil ceremony; I think the only costs were the application fee and the international marriage license. :shrug:

2. How many pairs of jeans do you own?
Nine or 10.

3. When did you start getting gray hair?
I don't have any gray hair, and I don't think I'll ever have any. Most likely, my hair will dull down to pale orange.

4. Ask me something please...i am bored
Did you have braces on your teeth when you were younger?

5. Do you think Eliot Spitzer will manage to pass an equal marriage bill in ny state soon-ish?
Dunno, but I do believe any two adults who want to be married should be allowed to marry.

46. Can't orthodontists now put the braces on the "insides" of your teeth
so that they're not very visible? Both of our goddaughters here had their braces on the inside. :shrug:

The reason I asked whether you've had braces is that you have a nice smile. :hi:

65. oops! late answers
1. How long did it take to plan your wedding? How much did you spend?
hard to say. I guess we settled on a date in ... May-ish? and got married at the end of October. We spent in the neighborhood of $3000 ish and had about 125 guests.

2. How many pairs of jeans do you own?
5 - 3 pairs plain black, one pair of charcoal with pinstripes stetch jeans, and one blue.

3. When did you start getting gray hair?
this year? I guess I had it before - when you could see the natural color, but it's been somewhat recent. I like it. It almost makes me look distinguished. Almost. Although my plaid pants give me away.

4. Ask me something please...i am bored
Can I stay home tomorrow and play hookey?

5. Do you think Eliot Spitzer will manage to pass an equal marriage bill in ny state soon-ish?
I hope so and I hope the idea spreads. The very idea of not having equal rights for all Americans in the 21st Century is ri-god-damn-diculous.

67. Since I see no Wednesday questions
I will answer Tuesday's. :)

1. How long did it take to plan your wedding? How much did you spend?

My first wedding took place in a judge's office, there was no real planning to it and all it cost was whatever the judge charged. My second took place in my back yard and was very relaxed and informal. It didn't take a huge amount of planning and cost only about $1500 total.

2. How many pairs of jeans do you own?

Four or five, half of which don't fit me. :blush:

3. When did you start getting gray hair?

In my early 40's. I really need to color but I've been too busy lately.

4. Ask me something please...i am bored :(

It's Wednesday now - are you still bored?

5. Do you think Eliot Spitzer will manage to pass an equal marriage bill in ny state soon-ish?

I don't know but I hope so. I wish the whole country would smarten up and allow people who love each other to marry legally.
