On A Scale Of 1-10, How Strict Were Your Parents?

If 1 is not very strict and 10 is extremely strict I’d say mum was something like a four. Our dad died when we were quite young but I think he would have been the same. We were expected to be polite and well behaved, respectful to adults, tell the truth, keep our rooms tidy, finish what was on our plates at meals and things like that but mum did not make arbitrary rules about what we could and could not do. She taught us what she believed was the right way to behave and as we grew older trusted us to make our own decisions.

What Wastes The Most Time In Your Day To Day Life?

Really, you have to ask that? Hanging out on the computer for sure.

Do They Bury People With Their Braces* On?   (* “braces” in this scenario are those metal bits they put on people to straighten their teeth.   I realize “braces” are also some item of clothing that I believe men wear to keep their socks up or something.  I’m talking about the teeth option).

I don’t know. most old people don’t have braces on their teeth, they are lucky if they have teeth! I have never been to the funeral of a child or teenager so I don’t know what happens there. I guess it would depend on what the family wanted and certainly not a question I would ask. People are often buried or cremated with their rings or glasses on so I guess there is no reason braces could not be left on but on the other hand they are not necessary and if the deceased person hated them I imagine they would not want to be wearing them for their funeral

By the way the other braces are to keep trousers up and I imagine a lot of old guys are buried with them on.

Why Does A Round Pizza Come In A Square Box?

Square boxes fit better in a storage cupboard? Easier to get the pizza out of the box? Square boxes are cheaper to make? I believe they make square pizzas now, do they put them in round boxes?

Gratitude:   Share something you are grateful for right now.  I know that’s a tough question.  It helps to share those bright bits with folks though, because many of us are seeing through an increasingly dark glass.

Sisters Beach is a very quiet place, there are not many permanent residents so you can walk around the neighbourhood without being in close contact with others. It’s safe and it’s pretty. There are worse places to be isolated in.
