Ok I thought this might be a fun thread..see how it goes.
On Reddit, they have this thing called AMA which means Ask Me Anything
Sometimes famous people have them, or people that have interesting jobs, like I dunno, undertakers etc.
I saw on my profile that I was a 'well-known member' ...really?? How well do you really know me?

So maybe I give this a go. You can ask me anything. I will reply. I might not know the answer or might not give you the answer you expect, but hey I did this as a librarian so I can sure do this on here, right?

It means 'Sheep Grease' lol
It oil from lambs' wool. It's a good moisturiser for dry skin. It's waterproof for when it rains.
My country has lots of sheep. You can guess what it is.
Also, the Lord is my Shepherd...Psalm 23

But otherwise, it's the name of the girl sheep in Jim Davis comic strip Orson's Farm.

I remember that show.

Aaaaaaand... I remember that character. And from what I remember of that character, I'm not sure I would want to name myself after that. That sheep was pretty cynical and bossy. I disiked that sheep more than I disliked Roy the rooster.

What is great about living in NZ and what not so much. I read many ex-pats are moving there, if you've been to the US same q, what did you like and what didn't you like.

Great - the scenery, the greenery, and the people. Beaches and forest. The seafood and fresh food. The meat pies.
Not so great - public transport, cost of living, traffic and parking in Auckland city, leaky homes!

Liked about US - big wide open spaces, everything plus-size. Minute maid OJ --must be from those sunkist Californian oranges
Didn't like - noisy, but then that was NYC...the chocolate...any dairy foods can't compare to NZ

is a question required?
Is this the questions only thread?
What happens if I make a sentence that is not a question? Will I be excommunicated?

isn't your post an answer in itself? Does that contradict the basic assertion of the post, that no answer will be given?

Wait, what? Did you make that reply because that is what Lanolin the sheep would have said? Are you doing roleplay? Are you in character as Lanolin the sheep?

Do you get the comedy bit about asking questions yet? Can I stop now?

Eeeeeeewwwww!

That's not real chocolate. That's decoy chocolate. We put that out at the cash register for people who don't know any better. They purchase that, so it keeps the price of the real chocolate down.

If you lived anywhere close to me I would give you a five-star chocolate bar. Now that is real American chocolate!

Seriously. That's the name of it. The five star chocolate bar.

Oh really. Huh never heard of it.
Will have to Google.

I thought that America might have Willy Wonka's Scrumptidlyumptious or something like that, and I could win the golden ticket.
Well that's nice to know there's that.

In NZ we have Whittakers, we used to have Cadbury and you could tour the chocolate factory. I am not much of a fan of Nestle, because of their dubious international reputation.

13. I also sing in church, when I'm working (out) at home, and in my car, when the supermarket is playing a good song over their in-store radio, but I've never sung in Walmart, because we don't have Walmart in New Zealand. But we have KMart and they play 80's music, so I sing along to that.
