Every day, my Twitter feed is filled with dozens of random questions. This is where I provide the answers. It’s the Ultimate X Q&A. Let’s do this.

You’re walking through the forest and see the Clintons sinking in quicksand. What do you do?

I pull out my cell phone and start taking pictures I can post online. After all, it’s 2025. Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do?

The last TV show you watched is now your life story for the next six weeks. What is it?

I watched 4 episodes of Shameless last night, finishing up Season Six. And that’s my life story? I’m either in jail or dead! Oy vey! Or pregnant. That will be a rough ass six weeks.

Who was your favorite James Bond?

To me, Roger Moore will always be the only James Bond that matters. Sean Connery is cool too, but Moore is the man in my eyes.

What’s one of the hard truths that you have had to come to grips with?

I’ll probably never find true love or happiness and be able to make it stick. Too many variables fighting me every step of the way.

Do you have at least 1 cup of milk per day?

I can’t even remember the last time that I drank a glass of milk. So, that probably would be no.

Which animal would you leave out of the ark?

Spider Crickets. They serve no purpose, but to creep me out. They’re evil and disgusting. They’d have to get the boot from the Ark.

What’s an adult problem nobody prepared you for?

Physical ailments and losing a limb. I’m stubborn as hell and I’m a fighter, but this shit has changed me in many ways, and not for the better. I’m just winging it all the way.

What are some of the most common experiences you have missed out on?

Getting married, being a parent, going on a Cruise, long-term love with no interference. Yeah, it’s been a rough ride.

YES or NO to marshmallows on Sweet Potatoes?

I don’t eat sweet potatoes, so I couldn’t care less, but I have prepared them a few times for Thanksgiving. Every recipe I ever used calls for layering the top with marshmallows. So, that would be a yes.

Could you cut an immediate family member off instantly?

I can and I have. If a person is constantly negative to the point that it affects my life and well-being, plus they don’t care and have no desire to change, it’s time to say goodbye. Not by desire, but by necessity. My life is hard enough without others added to the darkness. So, family or not, I’ll do what I have to do.

And there you go. Thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and any questions are welcome and appreciated. Be sure to like, share, and subscribe. And with that, let’s close up the shop today. Take care and be well, my friends. I’ll see you at the library.
