1. In a mate I like a woman to be shorter than 5'9, I'm 6'1.

2. I won a 27" TV, carpet cleaner, $400 & a trip to New Orleans as well as a few other things. A good prize is any prize IMO.

3. Yes, but I'm not sure if they've ever been here.

4. Harden My Heart by Quarterflash is one I remember because it was so cheaply made.

5. NBA2K12, yard work, Cowboys and not much else.

Won a big NCAA basketball tourney pool once that netted me $2,000...back when I was 16 years old. I've won other pools, but smaller ones. One a contest picking the # of jelly beans (I was off by like 7).

Good Prize? Probably in the $500+ area.

Run DMC's Tricky, Frankie Goes to Hollywood 'Relax', Cindy Lauper's Girls Just Wanna Have Fun with Cpt. Lou Albano.

Funny thing is, despite living in NY, I didn't actually get MTV on my cable system until I was 20 years old. The cable system wouldn't allow it, it only happened to about 3,000 people.

Going up to my parents and playing golf. Then heading back home on Sunday and playing golf again. Watching the Cowboys play the Pats, that's about it.

1. Unimportant.

2. I won an X-Box a long time ago at a Columbus Riverdragons d-league basketball game. When they said "X-Box" they literally meant X-Box. That's all it was - no controllers, no cables, just an X-Box.

3. Yes, absolutely.

4. Waterfalls by TLC

5. Emissions inspection, renewing vehicle registration, and a collision estimate. Dang DC drivers

It's not. Just about everyone is taller than I am and I'm used to it.

2. Have you ever won a contest, sweepstakes, or raffle? In your opinion, what constitutes a good prize?

Nothing significant. Any money over $50 would be nice.

3. Do you believe in extraterrestrials or life on other planets?

Yep.

4. Remember when MTV only played music videos? What were the first videos you remember seeing on MTV?


I remember watching Friday Night Videos, which might have been prior to having MTV at our house. I think I remember watching Walk This Way (Aerosmith w/Run DMC) on MTV though.

5. What's on deck for this weekend?

Taking one kitten to the adoption stand. Probably a bunch of other things to completely fill my days. Some weekends it's almost a relief to be back at work.

1. In a mate? Very. I'm 5'8 and my boyfriends have to pass the heel test.

2. Like Duane, any prize is a good prize. Haven't won many, so I'll appreciate whatever I get.

3. Hadn't thought much about it. But there probably some.

4. Yo MTV Raps!

5. Chores and my Dad's coming to town. Yippee!!
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

1. height isn't important to me. I'm about average at 5'11".

2. Never won a contest. I think all expenses paid vacations would be nice.

3. Given how big our universe is I'd say yes. But I don't think they spend the time and energy to come find us.

4. I'm too young to remember anything about MTV lol.

5. Got an interview with Baylor med in an hour then just getting back to Austin for the horns game and watching Dallas new England!


Thanks YoMick!

1. Not at all.

2. I won a gas grill in a school raffle once. I already owned a nice Weber grill, so I sold it real cheap to a neighbor.

3. Absolutely! Not necessarily little green men, but life.

4. Van Halen-Jump, Big Country-In a big country, Men At Work-Who can it be now, and Duran Duran-Hungry like a wolf are some of the earliest I remember.

5. Youth soccer, youth football, yard work, and Cowboys throwing down on the Patsies!

1) In a dark alley I prefer them about 2'-6". In a girl....not really.

2) Won rain gear about 15 years ago. Two weekends ago the family went to the grand opening of Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the game. Coors was there and sponsoring some things. I won a set of those bean bag toss thingy's with the NFL logo and they have football field painted bases. Very nice kit. Anyways......the sponsor for Coors, a hottie dressed in a black mini, came over and was 'Blah, blah, blahing me, I was trying to watch the game, and she handed me a ticket. Next thing ya know, I'm luggin' out this kick-*** bean bag toss thingy. Before she gave me the prize I told her I wasn't even listening to her. She just laughed. Cool.

3) Yes. Got to be something in infinite, right?

4) Cult of Personality, Winger, Aldo Nova, The Cars...etc.

5) Son's last football game. I'm gonna be jonesing next week. I LOVE to watch my boy play. He's got a motor, that kid. Never comes off the field except when coach calls him out for a play for info. He's got at least 1 sack per game....He's a DT this year. Offense, hes a RT.

Hop on the 'ol TW200 and hit up some garage sales with my daughter. Trip up to Estes for one last round of go-carts and mini golf. Fish the Big T on the way up. No yard work.......fiinished, 'til the leaves fall off.


Apologies for the long-windedness.............
AS: Cowboys ice their own kicker in 19-13 OT loss

“That is one of the luxuries of my position as owner as well as the ultimate decision maker, general manager and president – I can do that and take the losses and come back for more,” Jones said.


God help us...............

1. How important is a persons height to you? Not very.

2. Have you ever won a contest, sweepstakes, or raffle? In your opinion, what constitutes a good prize? Just little things like radio giveaways.

3. Do you believe in extraterrestrials or life on other planets? No

4. Remember when MTV only played music videos? What were the first videos you remember seeing on MTV? I watched MTV all the time when it was new. Any video you can think of I've probably seen it at least 100 times.

5. What's on deck for this weekend? Work/chores/football

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.
