Old Lutheran Table Talk • View topic - This or That? redux

This or That? redux

Some of the most interesting pieces of Luther's life come to us from a collection of stories that his students collected that they called Table Talk. In the collection, we find Luther talking about his views on theology, marriage, the pope and just about everything else in his life. Please take this chance to express your views about life, but please, try to keep the Luther-like vulgarity to a minimum.

Sorry. I was just f*rting around and forgot to come back.

Procrastinate. I got my taxes done TODAY. Didn't do laundry as I'd planned. Didn't go to the DMV as I'd planned. Knitting is more fun.

hair-taming product or let it be?

The only hair taming product I use is called Shampoo.

Gotta like the procrastination joke. The only problem was that the page flipped so your post was number one on the page and the previous question wasn't visible, so at first it looked like a bungled thread.

ACT or SAT?

My oldest daughter is taking one of them tomorrow.

ACT. I never had to take the SAT, thanks be to God because it sounds a lot harder. I did great on the ACT. Again, thanks be to God, although it probably didn't matter in the end. Concordia would've accepted me if my score had been half what it was.

sheep or chickens?

Sheep if I'm keeping them, chickens if I'm eating them

Love doing. Hate receiving.

If you have kids, it should be done manually. And I don't mean because they shouldn't be around harmful chemicals. My dad sprayed the holy heck out of everything and look how I turned out. Kids need stuff to do. They need to earn their keep. Pulling dandelions is well within the ability zone of most kids.

wading pool or sprinkler?

Sprinkler. It doesn't leave a yellow circle in the grass after sitting in the same spot for too long.
But either way, kids must be well watered to grow up properly.

flower garden or veggie garden?

Neither. Squash out Squash is what I say.

Strawberries or Bananas sliced on top of your breakfast cereal.
(Today I had fresh strawberries on my caramel Cheerios mixed with Honeycomb. I finished off the leftover milk by adding some Corn Chex.)

Bananas. The quality of strawberries is so inconsistent; I rarely buy them because I'm not a gambler.

[Thanks for the heads up on the caramel Cheerios. I hadn't heard of them until you mentioned it, but there they are in this week's circular, on sale. I sure hope my store carries them.]

oat-based cereal or rice-based cereal?
