Early and Short Cheddar

Yep, Wednesday Cheddar X, It's Cheesier, no theme, just a few questions I've been kicking around for a little while

1. What would you want written on your epitaph?
2. What do you collect and why?
3. What's the dumbest legal action you know of?
4. What single decision in your life do you wish you could change? (might be a double, oh well)
5. Some people resemble their dogs, do you know anyone that resembles their name?
And from Robert
6. What's your favourite / most used unit of time?
Which makes me wonder.
7. What's the best internet time device you've seen so far?

And yeah, that's it. This week's Cheddar is all done and ready for the chomping. Dig in and spread it around!

Next up: Sarcastic Word Associations, Themed Word Associations or Double Word Associations because I had a blast with the last round and am eager to try it again.

Welcome to the Cheese!

I should have done this on Friday but things got a little busy and its now Monday so what are you gonna do?

Anyway, a big welcome shout out to Heather from No Particular Order. In her responses to last week's Cheddar X she gave me an interesting idea that I'm curious about how to implement and would love some input. Its sort of a new take on the old game, Telegraph. Or maybe its a double word association? I'm not sure.

Anyway, here's what she did "Linux = Linus = Snoopy".

I've been working on how to do it and maybe it makes the most sense to just call it a double word association. Have a list of words, write in the first that pops into your mind on them, go through the list and then go through it again but working off of the new words. Anybody got any insights to share?

So, welcome, Heather!

Speed Cheese

A festering concept for this week's Cheddar X, It's Cheesier. Word associations! Oh boy! If anyone's not been in therapy then here's how this works, read each line and type in the first thing that pops into your head, it doesn't necessarily have to be a single word but that's the general idea. And once we're all done, I'll be able to compile that nice marketing profile and sell it to DoubleClick. Nah, not really.

When I say:
Olympics, you say? =
Politics =
John Kerry =
George Bush =
Osama =
Same-sex marriage =
Todd Bertuzzi =
Barry Bonds =
The Passion of the Christ =
Beach =
Britney Spears =
Paris Hilton =
Microsoft =
France =
Hans Blix =
Linux =
MTV =
Outsource =
Hummer H2 =
Honor =
Love =
Courteney Love =

I'm sure I could just keep rolling with it but that should be plenty for now. If you feel like expounding on any of the topics then feel free.
Happy Cheddar X'ing!
