Ask Me Anything: Ask JJPenguin Anything

[eyoreaud]

Hi Aruna (i just love your name, lovely) How are you enjoying the interrogation so far?

Do you like garden gnomes?

Do you collect anything?

Do you like scrapbooking?

What's your favourite perfume?

Thanks,
Audrey

 

[jjpenguin]

I didn't expect the spanish inquisition

I don't like garden gnomes, unless they are used ironically.

What don't I collect, I am a true pack rat and can't throw anything away. I have loads of stuff for my hobbies, glass, beads, material, trimmings etc. But as for "collecting" I would say Penguins (surprised you there!) and Jungle Book pins & collectables.

I'm not really into scrapbooking. It looks great and I love all the bits you can get for it (there's that pack rat again!!) but I don't know where I would find the time. I have photo's from about 15 trips I still need to put in albums. I do put tickets and maps etc in with the albums but couldn't justify the time for all the other stuff.

I have few favourites, for summer I have Michael Kors and Gigli from Romeo Gigli - it smells like a flower shop.
In the winter I love Cashmere Mist by DKNY

Hi Aruna

Who is your favourite Disney princess?

Who is your favourite Disney villain?

Who is your overall favourite Disney character?

Laur's

Hi Aruna

I'm going to ask some boring questions, I'm afraid (I'm being on my bestest behaviour )

Favourite film?
Favourite book?
Favourite song?
Favourite ice-cream flavour?
Favourite fast food?
Favourite sitcom?

 

[jjpenguin]

I can think of the villian easier than the Princess, what does that say about me...

My fave overall Disney character is Baloo, from the Jungle Book!

Belle loves to read and Mulan can really stand up for herself but it would have to be Jasmine, she has definitely got the best costume, and a pet tiger to boot!

Best Villian would have to be Hades! Two thumbs waaaay up!!

Hi Aruna,

How tall are you?
what colour is your hair? and is it your natural colour or do you die it?
what colour are your eyes?
do you have any siblings?
do you know how many penguins you have? and do they all have names?

 

[jjpenguin]

Don't you know the boring questions are the most difficult ones!!!

Favourite film? I love the Jungle Book, but somehow it's not a film I watch over and over again, that would be Lilo and Stitch, that one always makes me cry...

Favourite book? The one I'm reading at the moment difficult this... I love and reread a lot of childrens books. Little Women, the Little House series, Jane Austen, The No 1. Ladies Detective Agency series is great...I'd have to really look through my bookshelves to come up with a favourite

Favourite song? The Bear Necessities! and an obscure John Hiatt song called " A crazy girl is hard to find"

Favourite ice-cream flavour? - this one I know: mint chocolate chip... or lemon if it's sorbet.

Favourite fast food? Indian take-away... we don't get that over here (yet)

Favourite sitcom? The only one we've got on DVD is Men Behaving Badly... I like Frasier and Seinfeld and will admit that we watch the King of Queens most evnings...

Hola Aruna

The most obvious question I have to ask is:

1) Do you like the Tower of Terror?
2) Do you have a favorite species of penguin?
3) I notice you travel solo alot, why is this? (If you dont mind me asking)
4) Favorite ride at Universal / Islands of Adventure

Take Care

 

[jjpenguin]

Hola chico!

1) Yes I love ToT, the details & the ride are amazing. And now they've added the random drops it's even better.

2) I like the Emperors, DH likes the Rockhopers.

3) DH doesn't like ToT as much as me!! That's a pretty good reason if you ask me . I've only been on 2 solo trips actually. It's got various reasons ; DH has his own company and doesn't want to take time off, he isn't as big a Disney nut as me, and he doesn't want to fly all that way for just one week and I do!!

4) We don't go to Universal that much but I loved Spiderman and Dudley do Rights!

Laur's

 

[carolfoy]

what part in a play/musical was written for you?

do you agree with the death penalty?

do you agree with euthanasia?

whats your take on the Iraq war?

If you had to do national service would you want to fight on the frontline?

 

[jjpenguin]

Hiya Madjock,

missed your questions but they will be answered forthwith

I am 1.66m which is 5ft4, and as my father was Indian I have brown eyes and dark brown hair... which is now showing a bit of grey so yes, I dye it. It has also been reddish brown in the past but I haven't gone blond yet

I do not have any siblings, which explains my selfish nature... oops did I say selfish, I meant self sufficient

Quite honestly I have no idea how many penguins we have, about 200 I would guess, so no, they don't have names except Jive, JJ and JJ's sister who is called JJ's sister!

 

[jjpenguin]

Ah Music, the food of love... or just something to bop along to when you're happy!

What is your favourite Disney song? Bear Necessities from the Jungle Book.

Which Disney film do you think has the best music? I love the Hawaiian Elvis stuff on Lilo and Stitch, and I don't know if it counts as a Disney Film the Danny Elfman soundtrack of Nightmare before Christmas

What is your current favourite song? I find myself humming the Pirates theme tune a lot at the moment.

What is your all-time favourite song? The Bear Necessities and (almost) anything by John Hiatt.

 

[jjpenguin]

My Gosh Carol, rather heavy questions for a wednesday morning, but I'll do my best.

what part in a play/musical was written for you? Something nice and vampy with a bit of a strange twist.. a cross between Jessica Rabbit and Morticia So definitely a villian, the Wicked Witch of the West maybe..

do you agree with the death penalty? No I don't. there is still too much chance of human error and it is irreversable. When you look at all the people on death row it's always people from lower social classes that have been condemned. And for people that cause war and genocide the death penalty is too good for them! This is just a gut reaction, there's so much more to this, there is no black and white answer but the death penalty as it is at the moment, I don't agree with it.

do you agree with euthanasia? Yes I do, I think that you should have the right to decide if you don't want to live anymore. I know that if I was terminally ill and in constant pain I would want to end it as soon as possible.

whats your take on the Iraq war? It makes me sick, a total waste of lives! I'm sure if the dictatorship was not in an oil rich country nobody would have batted an eyelid. As far as I can see it was just a bunch of excuses so that Dubya could play with tanks!

If you had to do national service would you want to fight on the frontline? I would refuse national service. I see nothing to be gained in fighting because someone in an office somewhere decides he (it's usually he) has been affronted in his 'honour' . I think there are much more useful things to be done for ones country than killing other people (who usually also haven't asked for it either)

Favourite holiday excluding WDW?
Difficult to answer this one as we haven't had any other holiday's but WDW for the last 10 years or so... But I really enjoyed the Safari we had in Kenya 2 years ago. We are planning to go to Disneyland Tokyo and Japan next year!

 

[jjpenguin]

Hi Laur's

My gosh, what isn't in my handbag.. phone, purse, pens, mints, small bag with "first aid stuff" eg asprin, sewing kit etc., notebook, umbrella, tissues, diary ....

In contrast to that there's nothing much in the fridge at the moment as we need to go shopping!

I just finished lunch, scrambled egg with chives on toast!

The last thing I bought was the eggs and bread for my lunch but the last interesting thing I bought were sunglasses at Orlando airport a couple of weeks ago. I haven't done any shopping yet since coming back home.
