Bud's Last Stand of 2016

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. You may have heard the expression, “honor among thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we try to credit the blog that we stole it from. We also provide a link to the victim's questions in our "Previous Victims" widget. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") Sometimes we edit the original meme, to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, to select the best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from recently asked questions from a previously post. 

We will enter our 10th year next week! It's been a crazy year. he LAST thing I thought I'd be doing is hosting this again. I am enjoying it. Thank you to those who have contributed questions. and to Kwizgiver for filling in! Happy New Year!

Cheers to all of us thieves!

We found this gem because it was kindly given to us from our friend Bev from the blog Funny The World. Bev has been a faithful follower of Sunday Stealing for years. We are still on the mend from that pesky broken neck. It’s almost two months since the surgery. We’ve still have a way to go. So, the help from you folks is SO appreciated. We may at some point try to recruit a new author here, but as we have said, we are working on some marketing to increase our audience. But now it’s time to toast!

Cheers to all of us thieves!

We didn't find this gem. The Gal Herself did. She seems to have a sixth sense when I hit a wall with this. Gal found a blogger called “Lana G” who often played Know & Tell Friday. Back in its day it had a decent following. I appreciated this assist. I want to keep this going until I figure out what's next. I'm not being cryptic. Or am I? Foreshadowing? Thanks, Gal.

Bouncing Billy & Bud Weiser November 2016

This space has become a bit like a Chuck Lorre vanity card. I usually tell you about the person that I stole the meme from, if I know it. But nowadays we have to use all sorts of question sites to find decent ones. But most of all of us started our blogs about 10 years ago. I’d say 75% of our blog friends left for Facebook. Which is weird because you can do both. And this gives us a place to vent without worrying about who will read it. OK, a bonus question to put at the end. I grew a beard. I stopped shaving when I got ill. It took four days just to figure out that I broke three discs in my neck. Anyway, my wife hates it. Since almost all of you are women, add this question: How do you feel about beards? No bonus points. I'm curious.

Sometimes we edit the original meme, to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, to select the best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from recently asked questions from a previously post. 

We found this gem... from a blogger named Becky Yanagy from the blog “where life takes you” who said, “After being sick for a week and not blogging, I hate to come back with another [set of questions]...but my pal Nettie tagged me. Anything for Nettie. ;-)” She tagged anyone who read it, so we are in! And we never trace our theft  further, who has the time? Unlike so many blogs we steal from, this blog in till active. Why I shared that info or why it's relevant I haven't a clue. Sorta like the tweets of the Donald. Oh on the name this meme. Today is December 4th and it's my brother's birthday. His nickname if "Boat". But I still call him Mark.


Time to toast, to Mark and to us!! 

Cheers to all of us thieves!
