[LSK]

What do you think your wife and daughter are doing right now?

She needs a day to relax...

My daughter is with her day care provider.

[NewJeffCT]

16. Makes me feel like I post too much!

You've been on DU a few months more than me!

[newyawker99]

14. Go Jeff!! I am waiting for you!

:hi:

[NewJeffCT]

17. Unless I hit Powerball & retire

I doubt I'd ever catch up to you in post-count... I'll just fall further & further behind.

[newyawker99]

20. LOL! No, I meant that I was waitng for you

to hit 10,000. :hi:

[NewJeffCT]

24. oh, ok

Big Sister is watching me, eh?

[newyawker99]

37. No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way.

I wont be watching, I will be waiting.

[NewJeffCT]

40. sorry

I should have put the :P or the :evilgrin: or the :silly: in there.

Just teasing, or giving you a hard time.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. Happy Birthday to my dear NewJeffCT!

I don't have any questions.....but I just wanted to say that my post count is waaay up because I have no life!

You are a waaay cool dude, and I hope that your birthday brings you much joy and happiness.....

And here's to many more happy birthdays!

:loveya: :hug: :pals: :yourock:

[NewJeffCT]

25. Thanks

This is my 39th birthday. I do know I'm a lot more tired than I was when i turned 29.

[suzbaby]

21. If you could visit any place in the world

where would it be and why?

Sorry for the lame question, just trying to help you reach your goal!

[NewJeffCT]

26. no problem...too many places I want to go to decide

I've already been to the Great Wall of China, the Forbidden City, etc. In China, I'd have to say I'd love to go to Xi'an to see all the soldiers lined up there. I'd also like to go to Hong Kong.

Overall, I'd love to visit Australia & New Zealand, too.

Even in the US, I've yet to visit many places - the Pacific Northwest, Hawaii, Alaska.

A lot of Europe.

The pyraminds of Egypt.

[suzbaby]

36. I'm from Alaska

and I still live in the Pacific Northwest. They're not as exotic as some of the other places you mentioned, but still worth a look. :)
May you visit all the places you mentioned! Good luck!

[NewJeffCT]

39. Thanks

I'm not always looking for the most exotic - just places that are beautiful in their own way - I'm sure Hong Kong is more crowded than anything...

[Shell Beau]

22. Well Happy Birthday and Congrats on the posts!!

Have a wonderful day!! :bounce: :party: :toast:

[NewJeffCT]

27. Thanks

I hope you have a wonderful day, too

[Broken_Hero]

23. okay...:)

In a fight, superman vs the hulk, who wins?

If you could visit one place, on this little planet of ours, where would you go?

If you had to choose between alaska, or texas...which state would you prefer to live in?

[NewJeffCT]

28. Superman would kick butt

Too many places to decide on just one to visit.

Alaska.

[Broken_Hero]

29. thats good!

good answers...:) well, if you can't decide on just one, how about a top 5 list? give you some options on that one...:)

[NewJeffCT]

31. ok, my top 5

no particular order
Hawaii
Xi'An, China
Hong Kong
Egypt, for the pyramids
Istanbul, for the history (a computer game, Medieval Total War has made me fascinated with the city, which was Constantinople before)

[bigwillq]

33. Happy Birthday!!!

Fave place to eat in CT???

[NewJeffCT]

34. it's been a while

but, I used to love Hot Tomato's in Hartford.

Right now, though, since we have a 2 3/4 year old, it's Friendly's!

[bigwillq]

35. Hot Tomato's is real good.

They have one in New Haven too!

Friendly's is awesome! I love that place! :hi:

[NewJeffCT]

38. well, for a family with a young kid

you can't beat the deal at Friendly's for a kid- cup of juice (or soda, but we don't give her soda), a dinner with your choice of veggie side, and a sundae for desert.

I like Hot Tomato's for their awesome garlic bread.

[Metta]

41. Happy birthday and the top of the day to you.

:toast: :)

[NewJeffCT]

42. thanks

Unfortunately, I fell asleep last night before I could get to 10,000 posts on my birthday.
