I could not find the answer key. Pretty sure "C" is the correct answer for all answers though right?

I named a couple of satellites after the girlfriend.
She couldn't criticize me too much when I needed time to "check them out"

Ha!
There are no right or wrong answers.
Well, there are. But, we are who we are and I have to admit that 'C' was the foremost answer for me.

This is really funny- nice work.

You should rename this thread - "The Extent of your Fantasy Addiction". Because that is what it really is.

Smart move though. You'll be covered when she hears you talking in your sleep and it's her name you say rather than some goofy baseball pun of a team name.

Great work Dough…very funny stuff. Being a married guy most of my answers were C but for the single guys if they didn't answer A to question 5 they have a problem. No brainer.

Good stuff as usual Dough. C is the answer to far too many questions so I cut back. And then ramped up daily bases so C is still the answer. Lucky I have an understanding gal that is engaged to me for some reason.
