Reversed Baton

Or to phrase it differently: A questionnaire baton that gives the answers and you have to think about the questions, found in the Stöckchen-Blog (German, translated by me):

“Please question the following answers.”

Well, then, let’s start:

  • When was the first time you were driving a car yourself?
    1.) When I was one and a half years old. My parents were thrilled.
  • What things would you only do when naked?
    2.) Blog, drive bumper cars, hand out flyers in a pedestrian zone, grow beans on the balcony, tinker chestnut men, play polo, paint christmas pictures on chicken eggs, meet friends.
  • Where will you be awarded your next medal?
    3.) In Beijing.
  • You’re a lousy marksman, aren’t you?
    4.) Yes. When I last had a rifle in my hands, I had almost killed the man from the fairground.
  • How often do you stand up from your armchair/sofa?
    5.) About three or four times a year. Can’t do it more often, it’s too wearisome.
  • When did you last take a shower?
    6.) That’s been an eterníty ago. Ten or eleven years, I think.
  • What would you like to give to your local innkeeper?
    7.) The Nobel Prize in Economics.
  • Whose haircut do you like least?
    8.) Erm, I have to think a little longer here. Boris Becker maybe? Mahatma Gandhi? Ah, no, now I got it: Ursula von der Leyen.
  • When did you last have to read your electricity meter?
    9.) In October 2006.
  • To whom do you pass this baton on now?
    10.) Come on, I wouldn’t answer this question even to my best friend. Much less a complete stranger.

I repeat: The answers were given, the questions are mine. So if you want to take the baton, find your own questions.

I admit, only one of my questions truthfully matches the answer. :bigsmile:

Electricity tariff increase

“Appropriately” on the Blog Action Day about the environment, now also E.ON, who provide me with electricity, too (and, after all, have not raised their tariffs this year), announced increases by an average of about 10% (in Bavaria).

:thumbsdown:

Well, I (and many others, I’m sure) will stress comparison sites such as Verivox now…

Maybe an eco tariff won’t be bad, there seem to be some which are relatively low. (Yes, environmental protection that costs nothing or little is still the most successful kind…)
