No.

Do you have anything that says “I am a Catholic - please call a priest” (or similar)?
 
Yes…the only phone I have…Barb was driving home from Christmas Eve Mass, 2003, hit a patch of ice, and slid off the road…she got a cell phone ‘for emergencies’…she’s used it twice, both times to have a flat tire changed…I don’t want, much less need, a cell phone…

Do you have a gas-powered hedge trimmer?
 
No. I have an electric one that is collecting dust since I got rid of the hedges.
Do you have a local sports team. I am thinking minor league etc?
 
Yes…here in Northeast Ohio, we have two of the Indians’ minor-league affiliates - the AA Akron Rubber Ducks, and the A Lake County Captains…good baseball, nice facilities, and reasonable prices…

Do you have access to Catholic radio?
 
Yes I do. We have a local station WHOJ (Heart of Jesus) plus I have internet streaming, Alexa, and if push comes to shove a shortwave radio.
Do you have friendly neighbors?

Yes and no 🙃
Do you usually have Canadian geese visiting your town or city?
 
Yes…by the hundreds…I work at a golf course, and they can be a nuisance…

Do you have an exhaust fan?
 
Not sure how to answer this. The building I live in is equipped with an exhaust system and there are vents in both bathrooms plus the kitchen, but the actual fan is installed somewhere else and does not actually belong to me. There’s also the hood over the cooktop. It’s technically an exhaust fan…

Do you have a carnivorous plant?
 
No. As a child I was very frightened of them because I saw an episode of the Flintstones where a very large one tried to eat Barney.

Do you have an electric pencil sharpener?
 
No,but I have a large tank to collect rainwater for the house.
Do you have a wind vane on the roof?
 
Not anymore. I have a little electric sensor that transmits the weather data to a display inside now.
Do you have a barometer?
 
I do,and if it were working it would indicate rain 🙂
Do you have a world map or globe in your home?
 
I think I still have a world map around here somewhere. I had planned on marking all the places I have have traveled to, then mount it on the wall. I never got around to it.
I used to have a globe my mother bought me for Christmas. It had John Glenn’s orbits traced on it. It was lost somehow during a move.

Do you have a left handed potato peeler?
 
I imagine that map would be criss crossed all over if you do get around to it!
No .
Do you have any stuffed animals from long ago ?
 
Not me or of an animal, but my wife has an interesting item along that line. It is a small stuffed doll of her grandfather in his naval uniform from WW II. Her grandmother made the thing using parts of his uniform. It is amazing how much the doll looks like his pictures. He did not survive the war so it has special meaning.

Do you have a collection various items your children made in school. Things like drawings or finger paintings?
