    So much information! Overload ... Must .... Respond .... To ALL!!! Brace yourself, and I apologize in advance, haha.

    1. Why do you want to change it to Hunter?
    2. Note to self: Never call DIYman "shy". (Even if I think he is a little bit ... )
    3. Then write silly boy!
    4. Ooh, then you need to come help me do Hubby's books!
    5. I already knew this one.
    6. This one too!
    7. *rolls eyes and smacks ya playfully*
    8. I've watched a few episodes, I can see you liking it.
    9. But, but, but .... The Amazing Race & Food Network!!!
    10. Me too! It's the only kind worth having. Google "chokolat" in Calgary. Yummy! :-)
    11. Yes you do, I've told you this.
    12. How is that even possible? Sheesh! The things I need to teach you ...

    21. No comment.
    22. Good album! I'm listening to Imagine Dragons Night Vision album.
    23. Ooh ... I'm impressed!
    24. I've never played. Now there is something you can teach me!

    27. Who hasn't?
    28. Sorry sweetie, *huggles*.
    29. I get a kick out of you!

    31. Again we are in agreement.
    32. Meh, I'm I different towards the NFL.
    33. Depends on the men, and who's giving the credit but mostly I would have to agree with you.
    34. So tell me something interesting, a random fact about WWII
    35. Liar! :-P
    36. GIVE IN TO THE ANGRY BIRDS!!!
    37. It does seem rather improbable doesnt it?
    38. Ooh ... Can I join you? I'll hand out the ice cream.
    39. Me too. We have this in common.
    40. Good, because you're wrong about Angry Birds. Just sayin'
    41. I'm so glad that you're better. I didn't even know you at the time of your accident and it still hurts me to know you were hurt.
    42. How did I not know you were homeschooled?! Did I know and just forget?
    43. Yikes!
    44. And your stubborn about it too! But this big sister isn't going to let you get away with it anymore.
    45. Which is your favorite baseball team?
    46. Why center fielder?
    47. Oh sweetie. *huggles again*
    48. Learning to be more assertive will mean having to speak up more often.
    49. I adore Jason Mraz.
    50. *giggles* ... Still haven't read the books. ;-)
    51. This would probably be a good policy for me to adopt, would save some of my foot-in-mouth disease.
    52. So what steps are you taking to achieve that goal? (Good choice by the way.)
    53. I know many people who would agree with you, Jar Jar can certainly be irritating.
    53. Are you excited about the new Star Trek movie though?
    54. You should come for a visit and make spaghetti for me. :-)
    55. The history of many countries as taught by the governments in question can't be trusted.
    56. Walk The Moon rules!!!
    57. Hmm ... You just answered my question answer for # 45.
    58. I like bananas in oatmeal too, but I prefer apples, cinnamon and nutmeg.
    59. Why did you want to join the Army? This little nugget of I do really surprised me!

    61. Did you pee in the cup?
    62. Challenges can be awesome, it's all in the attitude. You're is great!
    63. You're a freak! Who hates pumpkin pie?! I don't know if I can be your friend anymore ...
    64. When you get them can I ride your horses?
    65. Hmm ... Me thinks there is a story here that you need to share with me ... Tell me about the friend and why would you need to forgive yourself?
    66. How had you not seen Bravheart before?! You are my second friend to recently see it. I LOVE that movie!
    67. Maybe because your expectations of self are too high?
    68. What child hasn't consumed a little play doh?
    69. No comment.
    70. I'm still waiting to read the first chapter little brother.
    71. People can certainly say some I there's ting, profound or just downright stupid stiff just before they die.
    72. You are! That's part of why I adore ya so much. :-)
    73. Agreed, when those we love the most speak words that wound the scars tend to be the deepest.
    74. Makes mental note: Learn a good guitar riff.
    75. All political parties make me laugh.
    76. Obsessions can be dangerous, better just give me all your chocolate so you are not tempted! ;-)
    77. What do you define as a good cup of coffee? Have I ever got a place for you ...
    78. Oh my ...
    79. Then that just means you need to be complimented more, so you aren't so nervous. ;-)
    80. How do you know it sucks?
    81. She probably is, haven't really payed any attention to her. But the girl can sing.
    82. Why less to smile about? Don't make me come tickle you! :-P
    83. Hmm ... I knew there was something wrong with you. ;-)

    88. So red head like Scarlett Johanson or Felicia Day?
    89. Ugh! Mornings are evil!
    90. How on earth do they mistake you for 15?!
    91. Me either. Though, in grade 6 I did knock a girl out cold with one punch who was teasing my younger sister.
    92. Impressive, I wanna see a card trick!
    93. Je peut te parler en Francais pour la reste de la journee si tu veut ... And if you overlook my horrible spelling and grammar.
