Both are good, but I haven't had Pineapple Upside-Down Cake in a while and that really does sound good. :)

IowaMan

Mysteries vs comedies?
IowaMan
01-18-2007, 07:37 AM
That's tough, I love 'em both but I'll go with mysteries because I can sort of play along and see just how wrong I was when the mystery is finally solved.

Salacious
01-18-2007, 08:20 AM
red bell peppers!

cotton.....flannel is nice but I like it smooth
heat at 72...naked no blanket...or heat at 68 wrapped in a comforter

heat at 68 wrapped in a comforter, I'd prefer to be wrapped by a man, but a comforter is also comforting.

dicksbro
01-21-2007, 10:11 PM
Shrimp.

Tough decision, but since we had pizza for lunch, I'll pick the hamburger now.
(Answers subject to change without notice. :) )
Aluminum or steel rims wheels for you car?
IowaMan
02-04-2007, 08:43 AM
I guess I'll go for aluminum but I don't really give much thought to it anymore. Now if you'd have asked me that 20 yrs ago when I thought life revolved around what kind of rims to put on my Camaro..........
Try this one again since it's Super Bowl Sunday:

Seldom anymore
Proteins versus Carbs?
IowaMan
02-06-2007, 05:36 PM
I'm a meat & potatoes kind of guy so it's a tough call. I'll go with the protein this time around and take a second helping of the carbs too. :D
Cream soda vs. Root beer
dicksbro
02-06-2007, 06:00 PM
Another tough call with a slight edge going to root beer. Ever since as a kid, root beer from the local A&W was a treat to be savored. :)

Onion rings, easy call there for me. I hardly ever get fries.

Halloween.
Christmas vs. Thanksgiving
IowaMan
02-06-2007, 07:41 PM
I actually prefer Thanksgiving. I think it's because there hasn't been a big holiday for quite some time prior to it. With Christmas you've got all the time leading up to it that can be stressful. I don't get depressed if I'm alone on Thanksgiving.
Turkey vs. Ham
dicksbro
02-08-2007, 04:20 AM
Ham. Turkey is one of those two or three times a year meats whereas ham is an everyday kind of food.

Fast food chicken sandwiches: regular vs. spicy.
dicksbro
02-10-2007, 07:54 AM
Tough choice. Depends on the day, but maybe a small edge to regular.

IowaMan
02-10-2007, 08:08 AM
Definitely spring. When IowaMan's thoughts turn to love and baseball. :loveshowe:
Reading a murder mystery book or watching a murder mystery movie/TV show?
dicksbro
02-11-2007, 05:26 AM
Usually I read non-fiction (especially history) and watch fiction (especially mysteries or comedies) ... so, I guess movie/TV.
Going for a walk or going for a ride?
IowaMan
02-11-2007, 08:12 AM
It used to be that I'd say a walk but since it's so incredibly cold here right now and there aren't really a lot of sights to see here I'll take the ride in the car.

Oatmeal: flavored vs. regular
dicksbro
02-15-2007, 05:46 PM
Flavored although I'm not a big oatmeal fan.
An exciting close game where your team loses or a boring, terribly played game where your team wins?
IowaMan
02-15-2007, 08:00 PM
I've spent way too much time playing sports in my life, there's no way I can settle for losing a good game. Gotta go with the winning ugly if these are my two choices.
Velveeta vs. American cheese for a grilled cheese sandwich
dicksbro
02-16-2007, 05:01 AM
American ... at least that's what we always use.
Cheese fondue or cheese balls?
IowaMan
02-16-2007, 06:40 AM
I'm going to go with the fondue but only because when I hear the words "cheese balls" I think of fermunda cheese........ you know, cheese fermunda my balls. :yikes:
Skippy vs. JIF peanut butter
dicksbro
02-16-2007, 06:58 AM
I always liked Skippy, but my wife usually buys JIF. I'm mellowing, though. Now I'll even go with Kroger's label. :)
Peanut butter on bread or toast?

Cranberry juice
email versus snail mail
IowaMan
02-17-2007, 06:27 PM

Prime Rib vs. Filet Mignon
dicksbro
02-17-2007, 09:48 PM
I love prime rib ... in fact, we're going to a prime rib dinner tomorrow night.
ribeye or sirloin?
IowaMan
02-18-2007, 08:07 AM
I guess I order sirloin more often. Love the one at the Outback Steakhouse. Certainly wouldn't turn down a ribeye though.
Jello vs. Pudding
dicksbro
02-18-2007, 04:33 PM
I like both. Usually jello if I have cold or sore throat and even more so with fruit sliced up in it with whipped cream on top ... pudding is a great after dinner treat and, there again, I like it with whipped cream on top. Anyway, I guess pudding by a narrow margin.
Tylenol or aspirin?
smithy020
02-18-2007, 04:55 PM
since i'm not sure what tylenol is i'll have to say aspirin....

I think I've found more whites that I like than reds.
Beef vs. Pork
dicksbro
02-18-2007, 05:13 PM
Beef usually, but I love butterfly pork chop sandwiches.
Sherbert or ice cream?
IowaMan
02-18-2007, 07:26 PM
Can't go wrong with either. Love pineapple, rainbow or lime sherbert but I guess I probably eat more ice cream.

02-19-2007, 02:28 AM
A1 Steak Sauce.

IowaMan

Mine are without hoods. I just throw on a stocking cap.
Gloves vs. Mittens
dicksbro
02-19-2007, 08:25 PM
Mittens for warmth. Gloves for looks. So, if I've got to be outdoors (shoveling snow or whatever, I use mittens. If we're going somewhere ... gloves.
Ski mask or scarf?
IowaMan
02-20-2007, 07:55 AM
I've got both but I usually go with the scarf. I'll save the ski mask for days when it's -30F windchill or something and even then I'll still use the scarf.
Hercule Poirot vs. Miss Marple
dicksbro
02-21-2007, 04:23 AM
Boy, I love both of them. I'll say Miss Marple. I haven't seen a Miss Marple in many, many months, but I always got a great kick out of her. Of course, David Suchet, I think is a spectacular Hercule Poirot!
Remington Steele or Magnum PI?
jseal
02-21-2007, 03:59 PM
Magnum PI
Cary Grant versus Rock Hudson
dicksbro
02-21-2007, 06:05 PM
Cary Grant. Always enjoyed his acting. I liked Rock Hudson, too, but maybe not quite to the same degree.
China or India
IowaMan
02-22-2007, 07:23 AM
India. I've got a step brother who has spent a lot of time there the past few years and he has nothing but incredible things to say about the people and culture. I'd love to be able to check it out sometime.

Mrs. C for me. Had a little crush on her when I was little.
Mork vs. Alf
dicksbro
02-23-2007, 04:43 AM
Tough call, but I really got a kick out of Mork so I'll say him.

I usually go with the syrup for some reason. Although I love honey/lemon cough drops.

Yogurt - every morning.

Oooooooooooooooops! Wrong thread! :wobbly:
Canned
For salads: iceberg versus Romane lettuce.
IowaMan
02-28-2007, 03:33 PM
You know what, for some reason I prefer iceberg. I guess I like it because it's so crunchy.
Fajitas: Chicken vs. Steak
jseal
03-01-2007, 07:36 AM

IowaMan

White. Many reds are just too dry for me, at least the ones I've found.

jseal
03-02-2007, 11:05 AM
Blended - I am a heathen!
Napkins: paper versus cloth.

Paper
Icecream: vanilla or chocolate?
IowaMan

Fresca vs. Squirt

03-04-2007, 08:49 AM
Fresca
Reason versus Intuition
IowaMan
03-04-2007, 09:04 AM
Seems as if I go more by reason than intuition nowadays. Occasionally I'll go strictly with intuition but it's got to be a pretty strong one. I believe though that the older you get the more your intuitions are based upon reason.

Disco
Vocals versus instrumental
ReaperWoman
03-05-2007, 12:03 PM

Slow, as the ad's say, Good things come to those that wait.

Sophia (mostly because I'm not a Charo fan)
In honor of SI's annual Swimsuit edition. We're going with a couple of "sports" figures......literally. (Not that my options are swimsuit models, but I don't think anyone would MIND seeing them in suits..or out of them)
Anna Kournikova Vs. Maria Sharapova - for those who like blonde tennis-types.
IowaMan
03-08-2007, 04:54 PM
Um, I guess I'll go with Maria. Doesn't really make much difference to me. Now give me Martina Hingis or Gabriella Sabatini and now you're talking. Or Chris Evert.................. :faint:

College Basketball vs. College Football
Yeah, Chrissy is still pretty hot! I'll still take Maria though. Now to answer the actual question, College Football. I like March Madness of basketball season but that's only 5 weeks where I really get interested. With College Football, I'm interested from Mid August all the way thru the end of the Bowl games.

National League versus American League?

National League, even though I live near an AL city.
Gotta let the Pitcher hit, get rid of the "bean-brawl" mentality, if the P has to bat.
On that subject.
Baseball Wild-Card format Vs. no wild card format.
IowaMan
03-09-2007, 05:21 PM
No wildcard. If you can't win your division, you shouldn't get into the playoffs. 162 games is more than enough to prove your worth.
Dancing With the Stars vs. Any other show on TV
ReaperWoman
03-09-2007, 06:55 PM
Well if it's anything like "strictly come dancing" then I'll go for any other TV show. within reason.

Shakespeare!
Romeo vs Juliet :p
IowaMan
03-14-2007, 08:34 AM
Oh now there's a choice for us dear. I've to go with Juliet. I figure if she was that absolutely incredible for Romeo to lose his wits like that then she'd be plenty good enough for IowaMan. :thumb:

Since I don't watch General Hospital, it has to be Luke and Leia from Star Wars.

Zoo vs. Amusement Park
osuche
03-24-2007, 09:09 PM
Amusement park. I'm an adrenaline junkie
Cardio or weight lifting?
IowaMan
03-25-2007, 02:54 AM
Lifting weights for me. Cardio is pretty tough for me anymore but even "back in the day" I really only got that kind of workout in while playing sports.
Laptop vs. Desktop computers
osuche
03-25-2007, 10:26 AM
laptop all the way
High fiber or high sugar cereal?
IowaMan
03-25-2007, 10:32 AM
That's not fair making me choose! I guess I'll go with fiber and take Basic 4, it's not too high in fiber and is just sweet enough.
Orange juice vs. Grapefruit juice
osuche
03-25-2007, 10:37 AM
Grapefruit juice
Shake or ice cream sundae?
IowaMan
03-25-2007, 10:40 AM
I'll usually go with a shake so I can take it on the go. Wouldn't complain about having either one right now though.
Chocolate cake vs. Apple pie
osuche
03-25-2007, 10:52 AM
cake. I dislike pie
Fizzy or flat water?
IowaMan
03-25-2007, 10:55 AM
Fizzy I guess, if only it would come out of my tap that way.
Hot Chocolate vs. Iced Tea
osuche
03-25-2007, 11:01 AM
Iced tea
Water or a cola with lunch?
IowaMan
03-25-2007, 11:04 AM
Water unless there's something caffeine free available.

Smoothie please. Strawberry & banana sounds good. :slurp:
Salmon vs. Tuna
osuche
03-25-2007, 05:53 PM
Depends...tuna in sushi. Salmon cooked.
bed head vs. wet hair in public?
IowaMan
03-25-2007, 06:07 PM
I'd LOVE to be able to do either. I guess I'll say wet hair in public since I keep it buzzed pretty tight I don't really get bed head. :(
Mexican food vs. Chinese food
dicksbro
03-26-2007, 04:16 AM
Chinese (although my choice may vary from day to day)
Car wash vs hose and a bucket?
IowaMan
03-26-2007, 06:35 AM
Car wash, although I do like to get out the hose and bucket a couple of times a summer and give her a bath.
Wearing glasses/contact lenses vs. Lasik surgery
jseal
03-27-2007, 08:18 AM
I'll stick with glasses
Working for a living versus working on an advanced degree.
IowaMan
03-29-2007, 01:57 AM
I'm unfortunately doing neither right now but have done both in the past. I think I enjoyed working for a living a little bit more. My reasoning was that it was easier to leave the job at the office than to leave the studies on campus. The grad. school process was just too political for me to really enjoy once it got down to trying to please my thesis committee.
M*A*S*H characters: Frank Burns vs. Charles Emmerson Winchester III
dicksbro
03-29-2007, 04:41 AM
For a long time I would have said Frank Burns, but I really got to like Chalres Emmerson Winchester III. Actually, all the characters on M*A*S*H had their appeal.
jseal
03-29-2007, 11:37 AM
Frank Burns for me.
Infomercials versus commercials
IowaMan
03-29-2007, 12:42 PM
Sometimes infomercials are a guilty pleasure. For some reason I really love the ones with the cutlery sets. Can't believe I haven't ordered Ron Popeil's set or the Miracle Blade ones. And then there's always the middle of the night "Girls Gone Wild" ones, that I've heard about but never actually seen. ;)

New jersey Musicians: Springsteen or Sinatra?

04-03-2007, 12:09 PM
I know that I'm stepping out of profile here, but I'll go with The Boss
Popular music: Jazz versus Big Band
dicksbro
04-04-2007, 04:42 PM
Both are good ... hmmmm ... I always did like Dave Brubeck and the Modern Jazz Quartet and Miles Davis ... I guess I'll pick them.
Gladiator or Braveheart

04-04-2007, 04:46 PM
Both are good ... hmmmm ... I always did like Dave Brubeck and the Modern Jazz Quartet and Miles Davis ... I guess I'll pick them.
Gladiator or Braveheart
I'd have to go with Braveheart!
(on a side note, Jseal, that is SO out of character, I hardly recognized that it was YOU) :)
Keeping with the Theme:
Alexander Vs. the new movie 300?
dicksbro
04-05-2007, 04:41 AM
Alexander, which I wasn't real thrilled with. I was terribly disappointed with the 300 thinking the substituted gore for a good script and story (but then, maybe my expectations were set too high).
jseal
04-05-2007, 10:18 AM
Alexander
"Love Actually" versus "Music & Lyrics"
Love Actually
Female fat storage: ass or tits?
IowaMan
04-05-2007, 06:18 PM
I store my fat between my ears but I guess if we're talking about where would I prefer it to be stored on a lady............... I honestly don't know. Some sort of combo of both maybe? :shrug:
Grey's Anatomy vs. ER
dicksbro
04-06-2007, 05:31 AM
I don't watch either so can I pick, "The Weather Channel?" :)
Going for a ride or going for a walk?
IowaMan
04-06-2007, 06:14 AM
Yep, the Weather Channel works just fine. :p
As long as the weather is ok, I probably would rather go for a walk.
Fishing from the shoreline or in a boat?
dicksbro
04-07-2007, 03:26 AM
In a boat.
Trolling or drifting?
IowaMan
04-07-2007, 05:04 PM
Drifting. Never seemed to have much luck while trolling.
Salmon vs. Tuna
dicksbro
04-08-2007, 05:43 AM
I love both but probably eat more tuna than salmon.
Flowers or green plants?
IowaMan
04-08-2007, 06:11 AM
Both have a really tough time trying to stay alive around me but I guess I will take flowers for right now just because they make me think of Spring and how maybe that kind of weather will actually come back pretty soon. :wish:
Spider Man vs. Batman
dicksbro
04-08-2007, 07:20 AM
Probably over the long term, Batman, but I enjoy a bit of our friendly, neighborhood Spider Man, too.
Superman or Batman?
IowaMan
04-08-2007, 09:47 PM
Batman. I don't care what all superpowers the Man of Steel has, I've always been a Batman fan! :thumb:
Vinyl vs. Wooden siding for a house.

Double paned
Backyard fence or not?
1nutworld
04-09-2007, 04:45 PM
mine has a fence, but its not doing anything like keeping animals from running away.
Gas grill or charcoal? In your backyard.
IowaMan
04-09-2007, 06:25 PM
I'm a charcoal kinda gy.
Chevy vs. Ford

I like sausages a lot but ooooooooooooooh, bacon! :slurp:
Spicy mustard vs. Mayo on a sub sandwich
dicksbro
04-13-2007, 08:42 AM
I usually go with mayo, but will use spicy mustard if it's not available.
Watch TV or mow the lawn?
IowaMan
04-13-2007, 08:45 AM
Are the Cubs on the tube? :D
Canned pears vs. Canned peaches
rabbit
04-13-2007, 08:04 PM
Canned peaches
Partners: Older or younger?
IowaMan
04-14-2007, 03:28 AM
Oooooh, that's an incredibly tough one Rabbit. I honestly can't say because everybody is so different. There can be a young person who is very mature or an older person who acts as though they are a kid. I guess to be safe I'd have to say a 10 year window to either direction. 10 years younger than me to 10 years older. Not to say I wouldn't gladly expand my horizons beyond those boundaries though.
Looking at erotic pictures vs. Reading erotic stories
dicksbro
04-14-2007, 06:20 AM
Both is the honest answer, but, since I'm in a hurry right now, I'll just look at the pictures. :)
Mowing the lawn vs playing smut games at Pixies-Place?
IowaMan
04-14-2007, 06:30 AM
Well, I don't want to wake the neighbors up by firing up the lawn mower. I think it may be too cold out later for me to be out mowing the lawn. The grass can probably go another week without being mowed. None of the neighbors have mowed theirs yet............... hmmmm, looks like I'm here for the duration. :D
Planting a garden vs. Mowing the lawn

04-14-2007, 09:40 AM
Planting a garden (I live downtown :) )

Physics!
Scott Bakula vs. Bill Pullman
IowaMan

Had to think about this one for a bit but I'll go with Bill Pullman.
Sylvester Stallone vs. Nicolas Cage
Nicolas Cage
Ginger or Mary Ann
IowaMan
04-15-2007, 04:17 AM
Mary Ann. Always a sucker for a cute brunette. Then again, I've always been a sucker for a cute redhead too. :p
Gilligan vs. The Professor
dicksbro
04-17-2007, 04:02 AM
Gilligan. Who can't like that nutty character?
Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck?
IowaMan
04-17-2007, 04:45 AM
Donald Duck, I've never really understood how Mickey gets all the attention.
Donald Duck vs. Daffy Duck
dicksbro
04-17-2007, 01:53 PM
Donald Duck although Daffy is a personal favorite, too!
Daffy Duck vs Bugs Bunny
IowaMan
04-17-2007, 03:47 PM
Bugs Bunny. I just get a huge kick out of him. :D
The Little Mermaid vs. Snow White
ReaperWoman
04-17-2007, 03:54 PM
I don't know so I'm going to leave the choice to the next poster, but personally, I'd love to watch that fight... :D
dicksbro
04-18-2007, 03:05 AM
Tough call, but I'll say Snow White. I'm older, so just chalk it up to tradition. :)
Dastardly or Muttley
IowaMan
04-18-2007, 06:05 AM
Muttley. :D
Dean Martin vs. Frank Sinatra

Public versus privately held companies
dicksbro
04-24-2007, 05:24 AM
There was a time I would have said public, but I'm not so sure anymore. From what I've seen in recent years; concern for employee well-being is falling while the salary's and compensation for executives has sky-rocketed. Privately held companies aren't always good, but at least you really know who to blame. :(
Ice water or straight from the tap?
IowaMan
04-24-2007, 06:30 AM
I usually just go straight from the tap unless it's unbelievably hot outside and I really want to cool off quickly.
Swiss cheese vs. Provolone on a ham sandwich

provolone, the holes in the swiss taste funny!

IowaMan
04-24-2007, 11:52 AM
I'm content with either but I guess I probably get soda more often. :(
Apricots vs. Tangerines
dicksbro
04-25-2007, 03:37 AM
Tangerines. I like both, but a slight edge goes to the tangerines. :boink:
Black or brown shoes?
jseal
04-25-2007, 09:25 AM
Brown mostly
Popcorn versus Fritos
IowaMan
04-26-2007, 05:38 AM
Fritos. I don't each much of either but I crave Fritos more often. Now caramel corn or kettle corn......... well those two put Fritos to the curb. :p
Hard vs Soft tacos

04-26-2007, 11:08 AM
Soft tacos

Hot vs. Mild Taco Sauce
dicksbro
04-27-2007, 04:37 AM
Mild. Used to be hot, but I overdid it one time and got rather sick ... so I've backed off a bit.
Hot tomales ... in a corn tortilla or a bikini?
IowaMan
04-27-2007, 05:21 AM
Both are tasty but I guess I've gotta go for the bikini clad version. Much more fun to eat. :horny:
Sears vs. JC Penney
dicksbro
04-28-2007, 02:42 AM
Probably Sears but not by much. Very similar stores.
Chrome vs brushed aluminum wheel covers?
IowaMan
04-28-2007, 06:18 AM
Chrome looks so great, I guess I'll go with that but it's so hard to maintain.
Soft vs. Firm tooth brush bristles
dicksbro
04-29-2007, 01:51 AM
Used to be firm, but the last half dozen or so have been medium or soft.
