Predictions on the overplayed song of summer '05?
"Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani. June 10 and it's already overplayed to hell and back.
What was your worst family summer vacation?
Our trip to Boston. Mom and Dad alternated being physically ill with bickering. Also, they thought they could drive in Boston. They were so very wrong.
your best?
Driving from MI to CA and back again in the summer of '76. I got to see the Grand Canyon, a tornado in Kansas, and redwood trees.
I don't think of summer desserts, but I do love margs in summer. I am always fantasizing about eating mexican outside at sunset while drinking margs.
What are they drinking, Rick? That could be the deal maker or breaker.
Usually vodka or pure alcohol in a mix that makes it hard to tell how strong the drinks are. It's not drinking for taste. It's drinking to get drunk.
Once again, the lying few make it uncomfortable for the honest rest of us.
Yeah. I mean, there are things I'd lie about, but being pregnant isn't one of them. But perhaps I want to have my cake and eat it, too.
But not in the pregnant-and-craving way.
It's not drinking for taste. It's drinking to get drunk.
I've had nights like that.

Predictions on the overplayed song of summer '05?
I have not listened to the radio in so long and I tried to watch TRL the other day, but I got scared. So, I'm gonna have to sit this one out.
What was your worst family summer vacation?
We weren't big on the let's all pack up in the car and go somewhere vacations. And my mom thinks a three star hotel is slumming, so we generally had good vacations. Let's see. . .we went down to Rosarita Beach one time for a long weekend and my dad got laid low by Montezuma's Revenge. That was not too fun.
your best?
Hmm. . . going to Puerto Varas, Chile with my mom and taking an amazing boat ride across the Lago de Todos Los Santos. So beautiful.

The summer we spent touring the U.P.
The only thing coming to mind is the Unidad Popular, and since I don't think that would have been much fun, what with the riots and getting shot and all, I have to say that I am stumped.
