Like a Head on Fire

"It's useless to hold a person to anything he says while he's in love, drunk, or running for office." Shirley MacLaine.

Are you following politics this year? I am at moments, and a friend sent me to a site online to take a survey of questions that matches one up with the candidate that best matches one's answers. You have to rate issues on importance and choose from several answers. It was really interesting.

I'm sure it's not wise to get into politics here, so I won't ask you who you like as best as a candidate. Instead, if you answer one of the following questions, I'll match you to the cartoon character that suits you best...

1. Of all the super powers I could have I would most like to:
(a) fly even if I had to wear a really boring hairstyle and tights (b) talk to animals who might follow my commands, but might also choose to ignore me, (c) deflect bullets while wearing my underwear, (d) turn into a bucket of water

2. My highest priority in life is:
(a) efficiency, I like to move fast (b) treats, you can send me to possibly get killed so long as there's a peanut butter cup involved, (c) killing my nemesis; I'll try things that defy the laws of physics if there's even a chance I can destroy him/her

All right, obviously I'm overtired considering that I'm making up a question/answer section of my blog that involves cartoons. Have a great Sunday, and I'll see you in the comments. :)

I have to admit I was tempted by the peanut butter cups as well, but having an arch nemesis is the kind of thing that helps you get out of bed in the morning.

Rick - LOL That is SO true.

Beth - An AquaScooby is half Aquaman (from the Superfriends whose big talent was talking to animals and swimming. So if there was no sea adventure, Wonder Woman mostly had to cart him around in her invisible jet. Old joke...how did they even find it?)

And the other is, of course, Scooby Doo. Fun-loving and mostly used as bait by his pals. Paid off using Scooby snacks. When I was little, I decided that Scooby snacks were peanut butter flavored and must have been delicious for Shaggy and Scooby to risk their lives to get them. ;)

There's not much I wouldn't do for peanut butter cups....

Thanks for the clarification! I know Scooby, but not Aquaman. I'll work on becoming that person...

Oh, cool! We can breathe underwater? I've always wanted to be able to do that. . .while talking to animals and eating peanut butter cups.

Is there a superhero that eats Hersey Kisses with Almonds?

That's fine with me Scooby was always my favorite!

Nancy,

If there isn't there should be. My main character eats a lot of Hershey's, but I don't think she'd qualify as a superhero. On the other hand, she does have some extraordinary powers and if the Wonder Twin brother who just turned into a bucket of water most of the time qualified as one, then maybe so... ;)

Southern Witch series - Quote of the Day: "I'd never kill anyone with hair that fabulous." ~ Rollie the vampire * * * Gerry Bartlett writes a terrific humorous paranormal series featuring a beautiful full-figured vampire. Here's what Gerry has to say about becoming one of the undead herself... Since you write about vampires, if you had the choice, would you want to be one? "Lots to consider here. First, my heroine, Glory St. Clair, was turned when she had a few extra pounds to lose and then she was stuck like that. So first, I’d have to diet down to a perfect weight. And that’s obviously not going to happen. I have the self-control of a mosquito in a nudist colony. Then there’s the whole liquid diet thing. Sorry, but I love my food too much to give it up. What fun is it to live forever without steak and a baked potato? Not to mention chocolate truffles. I have to have crunch in my diet too, just like my heroine. She suffers just to taste the occasional Cheeto. O...

Southern Witch series - Quote of the Day: "I don't know why people pay for rental cars when so many friends and family members just leave their keys lying around unattended." ~ Tammy Jo Trask, whose car is often misplaced. * * * NYT bestselling author Nina Bangs writes awesome sexy, funny paranormal romances, but she didn't always know that she would become a writer. When asked in an interview what she wanted to be when she grew up, she said: "I wasn't so practical when I was young. I wanted to ride horses. I wasn't too clear on the concept of how I'd manage that, but I was open to suggestions." Don't you just love that? Amazingly, she went on to raise and show Arabians for a few years. So apparently Nina's good at turning all kinds of dreams into reality. I'm taking notes! (To learn more about Nina's terrific books, visit her site - www.NinaBangs.com ) * * * Another author whose work I love is Alyssa Day. She writes about the l...

Southern Witch series - Quote of the Day "And how come the Glenfiddle workers remembered me splashing them with the passionflower potion? Weren't these potions supposed to cause at least a little bit of amnesia? I mean how was a witch supposed to spell-cast without getting caught?" ~ Tammy Jo, realizing that when she rescues people from monsters, she needs to be sneaky about it. Life as a witch is so complicated! * * * Maria Lima is a terrific cyber-friend that I met at my friend Nancy Pickard's blog awhile ago. Maria writes a wonderful series of paranormal books (the Blood Lines series) that are set in Texas and are packed with mystery. How could I not love them? Here's the first line from Matters of the Blood : "I know the dead, and the dead know me. Not a personal choice, mind you, just the result of being born into a family of necromancers." Maria hooked me with that opening and pulled me through the rest of her story, which is just as great. Recent...
