Li Dea @ https://lidea.blog/2020/10/17/liebster-award-2020/ nominated me for a Liebster Award. I thought it was very sweet of Li Dea to nominate me, but I don’t participate in awards because I am a curmudgeonly El Cheo. However, since Li Dea’s blog is in Russian, I could not resist answering her questions in Russian, Welsh, and English. How much fun is that?

It is a good interview, it makes me know you a bit better
Thanks, Harry.
That was interesting. I’m impressed you could answer in 3 languages!
Thanks, Susan. I had a little help from translate.google.com.
Love this.
You like “No More Mister Nice Guy?”
I think I know most the lyrics.
Why, so I know this?
Thanks, Cindy. It’s the prefect song for most of us. I really like Alice Cooper, also.
Brilliant. Spasebo.
Thanks, Shey.
Now this was something! Bravo!
Thanks, Nancy.
Most enlightening.
Thanks, Maj & Sher.
Congratulations. That’s excellent!
Thanks, Gabriela.
My pleasure 🙂
I picked a couple of awards along the way, just taking the graphic that was sent to me and saving it to the archives. The person who gave me the Liebster award made a graphic with a lobster in the center.
Answer #2 – What the robot in Lost In Space would say, “Warning!”
Answer #7 – Holiday tradition, this year, I don’t know. It’s been much too rough.
Answer #6 – Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green era). They did some very good riffs.
Answer #3 – I don’t think there would be a song. Maybe, Iceman. Andrea would say, Cold As Ice when we were first married and I was still active duty.
Answer #1 – Cats, horses, cookies.
Answer #10 – Andrea knows me the best, Laurie not far behind.
Answer #11 – 1000 ft roll of parachute cord, a folding ceramic blade knife, a case of Avon’s Skin So Soft.
Thanks, David.
Interesting answers, Tim. 🙂
Thanks, Lavinia.
Give Ozzie a run for his money, eh? #9… I plead the fifth!!!
Hi Terry. I was going to plead the fifth on #9, but found a way out of it as you saw.
Well played!
#9 – 🤣 Entertaining post!
Thanks, Ingrid.
You Russian is improving lol! Btw, I nominated you too! Love your blog!
Thanks, Victoria. I think I remember that, but as the bad boy that I am, I didn’t do anything with it.
Since I added a “translation” button to my site, it might be easy for you to read my articles now
I have not been getting blog notices for you, come to think about it. I checked and I’m getting a notice that “the author deleted this blog.” Do you have a new link?
Wow. I don’t know what happened. I believe since the WordPress implemented the new editor, something went wrong:( Ugh. It’s still the same https://americasroads.us/ You might like the new interview I posted yesterday, with the guy from FDA https://americasroads.us/2020/10/16/%d1%8d%d0%ba%d1%81%d0%bf%d0%b5%d1%80%d1%82-%d0%bf%d0%be-%d0%ba%d0%be%d1%80%d0%be%d0%bd%d0%b0%d0%b2%d0%b8%d1%80%d1%83%d1%81%d1%83-%d0%ba%d0%be%d0%b3%d0%b4%d0%b0-%d0%bc%d1%8b-%d0%b2%d0%b5%d1%80%d0%bd/
Weird. I had to approve this comment. Something changed. I also can’t simply follow, I have to add my email, so we seem to have been separated in WP space.
I noticed, since they changed for a new “editor”, it’s getting worse
I just commented on your Liebster post. What a pain to figure out how to follow you again. WP is not letting me like, comment or follow from you blog site. I can only do it through the reader. I have that issue with many blog sites.
May be they will pay attention if people send their complains; I already did.
Like I told Teri at Photos by Dashfield, I’ve had several fights with WP techs about various issues, especially the issue of forcing the block editor on everyone. I’m still using the classic editor, but they are making it more difficult to get to. I have found WP staff are an arrogant bunch and don’t really seem to care much about what users like me think.
I used the classic editor until recently, but can’t find it anymore:(
Go to your Admin section. Select All Posts. In the upper left-hand corner is an Add New box. Click on the triangle on the right of Add New and select Classic Editor.
If you need to edit your post after it’s published, you need to select Classic Editor to the right of Edit under the titile of the blog in the list of posts.
It’s getting more difficult and not obvious how to get to the classic editor.
If you pay $300/year for a Pro account, you can add a Classic Editor plugin.
Thank you!!!!!
I must disagree with number 5, you are actually kind of funny!
I’m glad you chose to participate here elcheo! I don’t think your jokes suck at all.
I think I just answered this comment on you comment about Spunk. Spunk is all wired now thinking about you rubbing his belly.
He’s a feisty one!
Fun stuff!
I suppose. Thanks, Dale.
Cat Man, how perfect!
Yes. I still am. Thanks, Mia.
That was fun!
Your Welsh is really coming along, nicely.
It’s all Welsh to me. Thanks, Resa.
Have you dabbled in Greek?
Other than contemplations on Alpha and Omega. No! But seriously it would be really good for theological studies and reading Greek mythology in Greek.
Agree! Marina could help you!
True. Laurie’s studying Latin as part of her PhD studies.
Ah! I studied Latin for a couple of years. Puella aquam portat
Et togae indutus es puella. And she’s beautiful in it.
Gratias tibi!
Tibi grata sint.
These made me laugh out loud.
I’m happy you got a laugh out of it. Thanks, Susan.
