The IF Factor: Questions Answered #151-160

151. If you could choose any three songs to compile on a disc to wake up (slowly) to every morning, what would they be, and in what order? 

Since I'm a terrible morning person, I'd go with:

1. "Break Stuff" by Limp Bizkit

2. "The Hey Song Part 2 (Instrumental)" - Gary Glitter

3. "I Get the Job Done" by Big Daddy Kane

152. If you could have witnessed the childhood of someone famous, whose would it be?

I would probably choose Simon Cowell. I can just imagine how much of a jerk he was to little kids as he insulted them with that snarky British accent of his. Would make for some entertaining times.

153. If you could keep only keep one book you currently own, which would you choose?

The Bible.

154. If you could have known someone as a child that you now know, who would it be?

There are a couple of friends and former co-workers who would be interesting to know, but I'd have to go with my wife. 

155. If one aspect of your life functioned perfectly forevermore, what would you pick?

My dedication and/or obedience to my faith. If that was perfect, wouldn't everything else in my life simply fall in line? 

156. If you could eliminate one thing other people’s children do, what would it be?

Public display of rudeness, showing no manners, or complete lack of respect for others. We've all dealt with it, nothing worse than a child who is not disciplined at home, who takes his/her antics on the road as well. 

157. If you could give hair back to any balding person you know, who would you pick?

Ha! Myself! 

158. If you had to name the one thing that really makes your day, what would it be? 

My wife's smile, if I'm lucky, her laugh. 

159. If you could change one thing about your country’s history, what would you alter?

Slavery/Racism. Imagine if that never happened, how different things would be in this nation. We've spent the last 100 years trying to mend fences, and there is still plenty of work to be done. 

160. If you had to eliminate one emotion from your life, which would it be?

Frustration. What's that phrase? Keep calm, and carry on. I like that a lot.

WWE Survivor Series 2023 Review: "Whaddya Wanna Talk About?"

Well, following that premium live event, in the words of Cody Rhodes... "whaddya wanna talk about?"  The obvious is there, right? CM Punk, somehow, makes a bid for another moment-of-the-year candidate for wrestling fans with another "return" - his second over the last four years. This one, back to the WWE, in what felt like the most improbable of opportunities. But as we've learned, WWE truly is where you "never say never".  You can go in so many directions on this one. But without going too far down a road that hasn't developed or we have some headlights on, it's quite clear that WWE is absolutely crushing the wrestling business right now, and adding anything - or anyone - to that continued record success is the mission. They. Are. Not. Settled.  Second, the unveil I thought was great. Just absolute pro wrestling at its peak. As soon as the guitar riff to "Cult of Personality" hit and the familiar graphics hit the screens, my immedia

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 11/26/23

3 Up 1. Hostages Released - It might not be an overwhelming consensus - as this topic is so polarizing that I doubt we come to such agreements. Regardless, having innocent individuals released is a plus in the situation. I wish we still didn't have innocent people dying, but that's a whole other topic.  1a. Cease Fire - Who knows how long this will last. But the fact there is an agreement in place while hostages are being released is a plus. Take it.  2. Thanksgiving - The older I get, the more this day has a deeper focus and a sense of gratitude. Please take a moment today to focus on that among all of the chaos of food, family, friends, and everything else.  3. CM Punk Return - How cool was that? CM Punk returns to the WWE at the Survivor Series. Never say never in that company.  3 Down 1. NBA Ethics Optics - From Miles Bridges to Josh Giddey, its been really difficult lately to trust the NBA's moral compass. I'm not throwing them under the bus as they've done the
