The IF Factor: Questions Answered #331-340

331. If you had to pick the worst movie in history, which one would get the dubious honor?

There are so many. Seriously, sometimes I wonder how some films receive funds to be made, and further, who gives it the green light to be placed on DVD to be documented forever? Off the top of my head right now, I'll go with Click or That's My Boy. Yes, safe to say I'm not a huge Adam Sandler guy.

332. If you could have discovered one medical cure in history, which one would you choose?

Penicillin. Seema pretty practical now, and really cures a lot of illnesses that are now minor, but not so much before this beauty of a discovery.

333. If you could have been a jury member in any court case in history, which trial would you choose?

None. Too much pressure. Although, I've never had to serve (yet), I guess I would choose a trial not so controversial or public. Although it didn't include a jury, I would have loved to sit in on the A-Rod/ML:B suspension arbitration hearings. That would have been gold. 

334. If you could add one sentence to the U.S. Constitution, what would it say?

"The right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness does not include lifetime or extensive government assistance" Controversial? Sure, but that's just how I feel. 

335. If you could be the author of any quotation from history, what words would you like to have uttered?

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”― Mahatma Gandhi

Such a great quote that truly embodies many of the qualities I strongly hold - faith, education, imagination, and the appreciation of life. 

336. If you could choose, from what you own right now, what clothes to be buried in when you die, what would you wear?

Ohhhhh, I don't know. I could careless about what I look like when I'm buried as long as I spend eternity with Jesus. But to answer the question, a simple suit and tie would suffice.

337. If you had to describe the worst job interview in your life, what job would it have been for?

My personal worst job interview would either be for a position to be a farmer (I don't think you apply for that anyway) and to work in the fast food industry. Why? Both jobs are the antithesis of me, and my heart wouldn't be in the interview at all. 

338. If you could have hit any homerun in baseball history, which one would you choose?

Easy - Joe Carter's World Series winning home run. It's the dream every baseball-loving kid has when growing up. Other home runs may have gone further, maybe even more dramatic, but none has meant as much as that one. 

339. If you could give anonymous advice to any one person about their appearance, who would it be, and what would you say?

To young black males: You - we - are behind the stereotypical eight ball in various matters, don't compound the issue with an idiotic appearance. Do better.

Would You Rather: Questions 121-130

This edition of "Would You Rather" is credited to the NBA Would You Rather NBA Account on Instagram ( See Here ). Adding to the fun, this edition (and possibly future ones) are all NBA basketball questions.  121. Who would you rather have on your favorite NBA team - Giannis Antetokounpo or James Harden?  Seeing how I'm a lifelong suffering Knicks fan, the thought of any of these guys in blue and orange is hard to believe. With that said, I'm taking the Greek Freak for this reason - I enjoy watching him play a bit more. Nothing against Harden who is amazing as well, but at times, the ball sticks and that isn't always fun. Plus, I feel like we haven't yet seen a finished Giannis. 122. Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability?  This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 2/15/26

Sunday Sundown Rundown returns! Going forward, I'll be sharing thoughts and ponderings in a format of three simple thoughts, opposed to the former "3 Up, 3 Down" of the past.   Mother of Savannah Guthrie I haven't been closely following the developments. I've checked in here and there, mostly hoping that this horrific story comes to an end. I simply continue to sympathize with concern, as not only are the emotions of having one's mother kidnapped for ransom more than enough to bear, but to have it played out publicly, before the nation, helplessly, is an unfathomable reality to understand. And of course, as all things in this culture, the story has been manipulated, pulled apart, and coerced into political representations that are not true, or at the very worst, worthy of discussion considering that someone's life - a person's mother - is at stake.  Winter Olympics It's not my favorite. Summer Olympics are my jam. Nonetheless, this Winter Olympics...

Quick Ponder: No Matter What

"You can give  everything to something, and no matter what, it is always gonna do what it's gonna do." I feel that these days. I get it.
