Talk to the Goat
Probably the best answers I've ever seen in that kind of thing.
Let me know if you do open that inn, I'll book a year-round room.
Actually, strike that probably. The best answers.
Yeah, too right. The inn sounds awesome. Let me know where; I'd travel :D BTW just how sensory would the experience of each room be? I'm intrigued by that...
Loving the ironic colouring out! Damn! Why didn't I think of that?
If I could be a writer, I'd be you!
Aw, Mizzz Mac, you are too kind. One of the most important tenents of being Jamie is to never admit mistakes. At worst, I was just "slumming it" to see how the other half lives.
Anne, thank you kindly. Me thinks you give me too much credit, but I'll take it anyhow.
Lever, I sort of have this belief that what we really know is what our senses can detect, and for the greatest experience, I would have each room upholstered in the richest of fabrics for a jolt of excitement at every touch. High thread count linens, towels you want to get lost in, satiny sheets, plush carpeting...and of course, I'm all about fires and jaccuzis, and a great sound system, but probably no TV. Nothing good ever came from a TV. The best in food and drink of course, fresh flowers, a cozy room to sit and dream and think and rest and enjoy. A room that feels homier than home.
Let me know how that naked llama thing goes. I'd be lying is I said I wasn't intrigued.
At your inn will there be dead goat heads all around? I try to avoid memes!
No. I don't believe in using parts of animals as decoration. Contrary to popular belief, I do not actually kill goats in my spare time. I don't even maim them. If I ever came across a goat in real life, I would probably head in the other direction as calmly as possible.
I also try to avoid memes, but some buggers are persistent *ahem* and without mentioning any names (KIM!), they know who they are (still Kim!).
On running and big things - here's some more biggies in NB: the big ass blueberry in Petitcodiac (my favorite although it was moved in 1999 and it's now in Oxford, NS); the big lobster in Shediac; the big salmon in Campbellton. More big things in Canada
I've also thought it would be fun to see all the big things in Canada and the US.
Many writers (Miller for example) painted on the side. Or did they paint for the joy and write for the depth?
Naked women riding on Llamas? Just tried that on google and it came up with 300 hits.
the way that all these things could be achieved, quite easily, would be to live vicariously through others.
you can be a runner, an inner, a piano play-maker. even a llama rider... read up on it, dude. you CAN do it. although the thumb surgery would be a stretch. [oh! stretch... thumb stretch? {i'm piss poor at mocking things in writing.}]
goot luck with it all. just please, oh please, stop running like a girl.
"men throw their manties " MANTIES 
I love it! Never hear of Manites here in the South, but I aim to make it the next 'word de jour'. I've actually owned a real live llama (named Louie the LLama) who was saddle-broke. Never tried to ride naked, however. Don't think I'll start now, either. Llama hair might get in strange places!!
Those were the best answers. I love that you can write an answer, that I don't even know you, and I can sense the dripping sarcasm. That, my friend, is a talent.
And I almost peed my pants at the Bedazzler.
Excellent answers Jay.
Your Inn sounds like it would be the "in" place to be!
Shit, girl, you know how to do things up!
I fully want to come stay at your inn, listen to you play piano after you jogged your daily 5k in the am, and curl up with some wine (made with grapes crushed with your feet) and a good book (probably written by you) before attending the cocktail party and hearing all of your crazy Saudi Arabia stories.
No DS or SK? BONUS!
That was great! I love your answers, especially the llama one *still laughing*
would your inn have a fat, pregnant chef whose doctor ordered her to bed, and she obsessively badgers the substitue cook who does a good job but is incessantly annoyed by fat cook's prying? i like the idea of twice-strained duck sauce.
Jay, you are too much fun. When you're seeing the "biggest" things, you'll have to make a trip to OK to see the World's Biggest Gun Collection. :D
I’d be a running artist too. Running gives me the freedom to use up all my bent up energy that sometimes gets pushed down in the course of a day & painting does the same thing. I got criticized for coloring outside the lines too. What the hell...isn’t that what creativity is all about? In anything? Finding your own way...doing it well...& being comfortable with it.
There are MANY people who do not get that...but why do they have to tear you down? Is it insecurity on their part...or lack of creative thinking? I don’t really care what it is...just make ‘em stop.
If i could run an inn I would name it Outs Inn, and i would provide everyong with silk cussions to sleep on and only collect red wine as payment

My senses are totally overwhelmed--I don't know whether to run, read, nosh or start needlepointing cushions. All of which I do like a girl, but not for lack of trying for the androgynous take. What I want to know is what would you do if you were a spa owner. Lorna
oh well, you're a good writer.......i really enjoy this one
Junebugg owned a llama! Wow, visions of Napoleon Dynamite. Good luck with the llama idea, and make sure you send photos.
Whew!! Now those are some seriously thought out answers, lol
You missed the fun part tho... you get to spread the joy by tagging three other victims, errr...friends.
DB
I'm a knitter and I use a lot of alpaca hair. Llamas are very soft. I'm sure the nude experience would be pleasurable.
Jennifer, that is a funny thing to say, glad you said it.
DB, I know the point is to "spread the love" but since I'm always the person who stops the chainletter DESPITE TERRIBLE CONSEQUENCES such as death or having a boy not like me, I do always throw it away. So I'm just staying true to me.
I'm all OVER that inn idea. I'll book in advance Missy.
Great post.
I for one would like to thank you for the following reasons:
1. That you will not ever wear those itty bitty running shorts, god bless.
2. For coining the word "manties" (for me anyway)
3. For calling how you (and I) paint impressionistic, beautiful!
4. For having a well stocked bar in every room at the Inn and not allowing Danielle Steel.
5. For not becoming a llama rider. Ever.
This is by far the best set of answers to this meme. I've enjoyed reading a few of them, but not like I enjoyed this one.
I particularly loved the painter one. :o)
Hear, hear! If all answers to memes were this funny then they would be a much better idea than they are.
I bet postcards from you are already pretty damn entertaining, naked llama riding or no.
we like the same kind of grapes. haha.
i have a llama. and a camel. my camel's name is Sandy and the llama doesn't have one yet, b/c we just got her. i do not live in the desert, though. once my llama gets big enough to carry you, i might let you know.
any suggestions for her name?
~The Zygmoid~
Ahh the llama. One of the most important lessons my dad has given me is that llamas can spit. Far. Stay away from the head.
Oh man. Chapped llama-scented thighs? Hott. Running back and forth across Canada? I would like to join up too. And, this post? Fabulous, dahling.
aw shit, i just tagged you on my blog to do this same meme!
U R A NUT! And that is why I keep coming back to read more! That is by far the bestest meme, or youyou, I've ever read! (no that does not mean I want to be picked next but thank you for asking) 
Lois Lane
knowing jay the meme way. sounds great!
I'll be able to say I knew you when...FANTASTIC. YOu have such a gift. Psssst: This artist is also compelled to write, but my writing to the world is not nearly as colourful as my paintings. Wish you lived near me; I'd love to give you art lessons. I have a feeling more creativity is inside of you (despite the French I read here LOL), simmering for someone to let it burst forth free. Heck, you don't need me! Try it on your own (and naked is fine) 
Oh, and I never coloured inside those *&*&^ lines! I nearly tore my younger daughter's 1sst grade teacher's tidy limbs off, when she downgraded my daughter's calendar because of colouring outside the lines. In reality, I spoke firmly to the anal woman, who still didn't "Get it", when I explained the theory of creativity. What *did* work, was when I slipped into the conversation that I had a working brain in my head that she had called 6 yrs prior. You see, she had sought tutoring for her gifted/talented daughter from me, but I turned her down then, which is a whole other story, not funny like this, but you could make it hilarious! Jay, contact magazines. You'd write a terrific column for many places and can do so in your pj's or sans (anything).
Mmm...cheesecake and wine. Damn! Now I'm hungry.
My goal is to sometime comment early enough on an entry so I get the individualized response.
Erich, to get a personalized response, you need to send Jay $25 in CASH in the mail. She REALLY appreciates such things. I can't give you her address because it's private, but I can give you mine.
I'll give her the money, of course....
Hehehe....
He'll never know....
I want to ride LLamas with you
Dear Erich with an h,
I admire the h, it gives you an important, European flair. If you came to my hoytitoyti (how the crap do you spell that?) parties, I would introduce you as Erich, with an h, and wiggle my eyebrows suggestively.
And I would give you all the cheesecake you could eat. I wish there was a good way to send them in the mail, then I would send one to all of you. But Erich in particular since he was today's 40th commenter, which rates a prize and personalized comment (offer valid this one time only, void where prohibited).
J
humble pie all the way... you're crackin me up.
A nude woman on a cozy llama! Always been my fantasy. Really.
Fantastic post. I normally hate reading these type of hypothetical quizzes but you did it with such flair!
The personalized response, yes! That was even better than I had hoped for.
Thanks.
hmmmmm, all that whining about having to do the meme.... and just LOOK at your comment count... I'll just sit here patiently and wait for the thank you...
Jay, I always break the chainletters too. I'm sure that's how I wound up with my exhusband. :D
Great post Jay! I loved the manties (I'm going to remember that one) and coloring outside the lines. Great job!!!!!
PS: May I work as chef at your inn?
epic. the axe? the lobster trap? you make the great white north sound so exciting.
your answers were very good. and written out with mad skill. I just can't get the naked woman on a llama picture out of my head. it's a little disturbing. they're wide creatures- eh? just doesn't seem as distinguished as the naked woman on a horse vision. and the stench of a wild animal. I mean, horses leave a greasy layer of roughened hair on my jeans after a ride in the sun. so what would a wild llama do to fair naked flesh? and some smells weren't meant to linger in the bikini zone.
eek. isn't it terrible my imagination won't allow me to enjoy such a beautiful vision?
Be careful riding a llama nude. They spit!
OK, being a guy the word is not usually part of my vocab but that response was just so "cosy"...
..see, I told you it was a girl's word :
haha Lever, don't worry, we'll look the other way this once...
Johnny, I'm really not sure it was supposed to be a positive image at all.
Kim, do you really think I'm going to thank you? Huh? Do ya, punk?
MITY LONG POST
FOR A GUY WID SUCH A SMALL DEEK
Llamas are so versatile.
I'll never think of llamas the same way again...
