Unless there is an actual line on the floor and somebody who has authority tells me to stand on it, I stand IN line.

Hmmm, this would be #13 now, right? In. I think this was a Daily Poll just a few days ago, wasn't it? Or am I dreaming?? Just curious.

A couple of weeks? And I feel like it was a few days. LOL. Well, when I live my days in 24-36 hour increments, sometimes I do get all mixed up. Cause my "today" might be your "yesterday" or even two days ago. LOL. So when I've lived a few days, you all have lived a week. Sounds kinda like a sci fi story, doesn't it? No need to be sorry Grooch! If you missed that day then you needed to ask the question again! Hey, that can be #14: How many (in numbers) is "a few." For me, a "few" is three.

My goof. I thought I saw someone labeling a #12 with an answer. I guess that was really someone answering #11. Well, I guess we could just skip #12, if the number police don't come and arrest us. LOL.

OK, I'll slip in another question into #12, and bring the whole list forward for those who don't want to browse back. Then we won't have a black hole for #12, or confuse things by renumbering the others. 1. If today is Wed, December 3, then how do you refer to Saturday, December 6? 2. For reference sake, let's say you are currently visiting me in the Mountain Time Zone. It is 9:15 AM. Is California an hour earlier than us, or an hour later than us? 3. When you refer to the meal you eat after breakfast do you call it lunch or dinner? 4. When referring to the 3rd meal of the day, do you call it dinner or supper? 5. Do you call the long piece of furniture you sit on a couch or a sofa? 6. If you have to change your doctor's appointment from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm do you ask the receptionist to move your appointment ahead two hours or back two hours? 7. If someone asks "do you mind if I sit here?", do you say yes or no? I say no, as in no, I don't mind. But I've heard people say yes, as in yes, please sit down. 8. what do you call the road that runs parallel to the freeway? 9. For the ladies, do you use a: Purse, Handbag, Pocketbook, Wallet, Clutch, Bag, Or? 10. Do you go UPTOWN or DOWNTOWN, when you go into the center of the city? 11. Do you say Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays? 12. How many (in numbers) is “several?” 13. Do you stand "In line" or "On line"? 14. How many (in numbers) is "a few."

12. several = maybe five 13. in a queue or in line 14. few = three or four, although I probably use few and several interchangeably

11. Do you say Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays? Merry Christmas! 12. How many (in numbers) is “several?” depends on the larger number associated with it, but not a lot, say 5 - 10 out of 25 13. Do you stand "In line" or "On line"? In line 14. How many (in numbers) is "a few." more than three, 4 - 7

When you go food shopping, do you push a cart, a buggy, or something else? 15. A buggy, but up north I pushed a cart.
