... sleep with a light on?????
I love surveys. Over on the HAMB, it gives so many people a chance to post when they would otherwise simply lurk. I've long been an advocate for shy people ... being incredibly shy myself.
So, these surveys are great, and there are a number that I'm anxious to start.
Sleeping with a light on ... If a light sleeper sleeps lighter with a light on, will a hard sleeper sleep harder with a blanket on?
Speaking of sleeping and another great survey. How many sleep late and how many are members of the "Dawn Patrol" like I am? I'm usually up at 3:30-4:00 drinking coffee and checking stuff out on the internet. BUT, I notice very few people are posting on the forums at that time. Unfortunately, that's the time of day when I make the most typos.
One memorable survey over on the HAMB was/is "What kind of car did you come home from the hospital in when you were born?"
It beats all the "What kind of oil do you use" threads. I think I came home on the streetcar ... by myself, if I remember correctly. After crawling out of that bag in the creek.
Another survey that I would like to see, with all the flatheads around, how does everyone set up their distributors? Do folks do them themselves? How? Do they take them to the club expert or some other "old timer" ... ("old timer", get it?) Or, do they send them off to guys with names like Bubba or Skip?
We had this discussion at lunch yesterday about how in our town of a million people nobody is running around desperate to have their distributor set up. There seems to be much more concern for carburetor rebuilds.
Maybe there are a a lot of guys setting points with their feeler gauges and because of all the talk about strobers they are ashamed to admit it. (Ken, CT, is not ashamed though.)
Anyhow, I do enjoy some of the surveys. Lots yet to be done.
"Do you or don't you have seat covers on your car?" Those braided plastic ones?
"Show me your steering wheel spinner/suicide/necking knobs with girly pictures in them."
"Who all has had their mother catch them with their girlfriend's bare footprints on the inside of the windshield?"
Here's a good one. "How many of you are aware that most boxes of plastic wrap or aluminum foil have little punch ins to keep the dang roll from falling out? .... "
