Yes. Well, technically his name was “Mo”. There was no “e” on his nametag. He was a co-worker of mine. It was short for something else at any rate (it was an Arabic name of some sort).
HYE drawn blood (from an injury) while on the clock?
When I had a summer job making aluminum bases for bronzed baby shoes, I was shot in the back by a stream of molten aluminum. There was some blood involved.
HYE had sex with a coworker… while on the clock?
Let me think a second…I work in a store with video cameras and I’m asexual. Not in a million years will that happen.
HYE dropped your cell phone into the toilet?
No. I’d have to own a cell phone first.
HYE been bitten by a strange dog?
Not bitten, but badly scared by a big mean one when I was a little kid, yes.
HYE been scratched by a strange cat?
Yes, it was my partner’s room mate’s cat. I was fast asleep, and the cat was sleeping next to my head. He must have been dreaming, and one of his claws landed about 1/4" below my eye.
HYE dressed like Santa Claus for the kiddies?
Yes! Way back when, I was Santa Claus on the ice rink at Toronto’s Nathan Phillips Square. (With the permission of the City of Toronto, of course.) Even got my picture in the paper, when I was greeting the children.
Have you ever flown on a flight that covered less than 150 miles?
Yes, I flew on a small two seat plane from one small airport to another in my metro area. Distance was about 40 miles.
Have you ever ever eaten whale?
Let’s think…I’m a vegetarian who does not like fish. Big NO on that one.
Ever taken a snow walk for no reason?
Sure. Frequently.
Have you ever allowed a turtle to crawl on you?
We had a turtle when I was wee lad, but I don’t think I ever let it crawl in me.
HYE thought Galapagos turtles live too damn long?
I must admit, the thought has never crossed my mind.
HYE eaten turtle?
I’ve eaten what I was told was turtle. Whatever it was, the meat was finely ground, rubbery and heavily spiced. I couldn’t tell it from low grade ground pork.
HYE hunted for food animals?
If fishing counts, then yes. Back in my teens, we spent summers at my Grandmother’s place on a lake. I would often head out in the evening when the smallmouth bass were biting, catch a couple of bass, clean them, and cook them up for dinner the next day. Delicious!
Have you ever gone fishing and caught anything?
Yes. Many times. Caught a snake once. That was scary. Now I look carefully before I pull something in the boat.
HYE eaten snake? ( not me)
Nooooo, not me!
HYE eaten haggis?
Yes, in a pub just off Princes Street in Edinburgh, with “neeps”, and it was surprisingly good.
I’ve eaten iguana too, was going to reply to “have you eaten snake” with it.
Have you eaten rabbit?
No, I have not.
HYE used a phone (non-voice) while driving on a highway?
No. Too dangerous.
HYE received a text that made you want to fling your phone across the room?
This happens almost daily. A few have actually succeeded in making me destroy my phone outright.
Have you ever used a slide rule?
