1: Name one thing on your bucket list (go ahead and dream big, something you want to see? do?).
I want to see America return to its former glory so I can visit places in the communist states I would never travel to today.
2: What is your favorite sound?
The full experience of a properly suppressed and gassed rifle. The slow mechanical action clanking as you hear that muffled pop and the now oddly loud sound of brass hitting the concrete.
3: If you were to write a novel, name your main character.
Lieutenant Charlie Foxtrot
4: What is the strangest thing you've ever eaten?
Smoked Gator or Menu #6 Beef "fingers of death" frankfurters
5: What is the best one-liner you've ever heard or said?
I used to have some real success at the bars by walking up to ladies and saying "Damn, you look so good I am making love to you tonight if you are there or not".

1.) Swim with sharks. Preferably in Australia so they will be Great Whites.
2.) Does music count? I know that is a lot of sounds. The roar of the engines when a full field NASCAR race gets the green flag and goes into the first turn.
3.) Michael Butler
4.) Squid or Goat
5.) "When I was a boy of 14 my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21 I was astonished by how much he had learned in 7 years." Mark Twain
Great questions LadyLocust!!
1) Go see some beautiful water in the touristy Caribbean! 2) leaves in the wind! 3) Pearl 4) Snapping Turtle!
5) one I can't say on the forum 
, so I'll go with when I met Hubby. I walked up and asked him his name, and he asked "how old are you?" Since we were in a bar, I responded with, "old enough to be in here!!"

1. Name one thing on your bucket list (go ahead and dream big, something you want to see? do?). Go to Europe and visit my ancestors home villages and cottages.
2: What is your favorite sound? My daughter's voice
3: If you were to write a novel, name your main character. I've always known that writing something fictional is just not in me. I can't even understand how people can make up lies.
4: What is the strangest thing you've ever eaten? Octopus, so chewy, and alligator.
5: What is the best one-liner you've ever heard or said? Not a one liner, but this stuck with me when I heard it on Poldark.
“Women. None are created equal. Some are never satisfied, some could never be brought so low, and others…thumb their nose at adversity and roll up their sleeves.”

Thunderstorm with heavy rain
Rob Loblaw (best said aloud) springs to mind. Maybe Max Phil Lyne as the antagonist.
A locust. I was two. Next oddest was rattlesnake chili which was really good.
You haven't been yourself lately, and we've all noticed the improvement.
Good questions Lady. Some tough ones for me

Teach the granddaughters to operate the steam engine
A pinball machine when you win a new game.
Gotta pass on this one. Writing a novel is not my thing.
Peanut butter and bacon sandwich.
I was walking with a customer and passed a panhandler with only one arm and one leg. She quipped " I wish I could stand around and people give me money." I replied...
You could but it would cost you an arm and a leg.

1) Find my soulmate and get married. Yes, I’m serious.
2) The sound of wedding bells. Yes, I’m joking.
Seriously, I’m pretty fond of the sound of my Harley Davidson. Then there was the sound of an old Ford engine a rebuilt and modified. Sounded great running with open headers.
3) I wouldn’t write a novel, but could probably come up with a workable name. Maybe later.
4) A dog treat, Milk Bone…. Actually one bite was enough. I don’t get the fascination with them that dogs have.
5) My memory isn’t serving me well enough at the moment… but Neb’s reply ranks right up there.

1. too many...Sequoia trees; forests in southern Alaska, Tongass NF. Cities in other countries where my ancestors lived. Ruins of ancient civilizations.
2. There is not one I favor over others. Owl hooting (heard another one last night that may be a great horned owl). This sound I wish i was hearing the sounds the metal things on ropes make against the metal poles on boats, plus the wind that causes it, and the water lapping against the sides of the boat. Waves crashing at the beach. Rain. My grandchildren's voices. Cat waking up with an inquisitive huh purr. Cracks me up.
3. Alphonso Paradigm
4. Black tip shark
5. Too many and they happen all the time.
So......
