Friday 5 for October 25: I’ve got a bad feeling about this

 The following questions come from Scrivener's Friday 5 blog:

1. In your city, where might a visitor find a wretched hive of scum and villainy?

Hawaii State Capitol. 😀 Some of them should be at OCCC.

2. When did you most recently do something you didn’t think you could do?

Survive a heart attack in 2015. 

3. If a robot could do all but two of your regular menial chores, which two would you continue to do?

• Turn the lights on and off
• Cook most of my meals

4. Who best qualifies as a mentor in your life today?

The two people who mentored me have both died now.

5. How are you at chess?

I'm better at checkers and Stratego. Chess, I can play but my King would probably be checkmated in under five minutes.

I have a cautious good feeling that Trump will win.

Building management stopped by the yell at us about our windows being opened during window washing day last month. They were loud and rude. I had forgotten about that day as I was out running an errand that morning. I usually never forget about those days.
