Answering my own questions

Answering my own questions...see entry below

Your lattitude and longitude? 121 W 37.5 N

Where on Earth it is midnight, right now while you are reading this? Easy, it was ten pm here and midnight in, say, Alabama, CST

When the International Space Station was last directly over your head? About midnight in Eastern U.S. Went from Texas northeast over New York.  Right now in South Pacific

Your age in hexadecimals? 51.  I had to make a chart. I am 81

What kangaroos eat mostly? Grass and small plants

How John Scalzi spells the name of his cat "Fluffy"? Ghlaghghee Scalzi exactly.(offical)

Your congressman's name? I am still racking my brain.  I know him, met him, but can't recall his name.  But I know how to look it up.(PS..it is Dennis Cardoza.  I got an email from him, so THEN I remembered.)

How your city or state got its name? Merced... Mercy. California was name of literary Utopia, but I don't know in what literature.

Your diivers license number? I have it memorized but I shouldn't print it here. More recent licenses carry the driver's social security number instead.

Your maternal grandmother's maiden name? Robinson

I give myself a pat on the back.  The questions were the most obscure I could think of, and it was all in fun. Thanks for playing along.

I don't think you got Scalzi's cat right, but you did excelently though I think.  So what do you want for an award.  Woops, I haven't sent you your grits yet.  Sorry.

Scalzi's cat is Ghlaghghee.  His monday photo shoot last week was things that start with the letter "G",  so he could post another cat picture. :)

They stopped including social security numbers on our driver's licenses here because of identity theft.  I have memorized my driver's license number and use this very impressive skill to prove my brain has not yet turned to oatmeal. The rest of me has, but they'll never get my brain.  This week at least.  Mrs. L
