People are getting cabin-fever big time in Oregon and professional list-servs are going a little haywire with nutty people posting things they might not otherwise post. Here's one example: the first page of the Martha Stewart Jury Questionnaire:

Martha Stewart Jury Questionnaire, Page 1

1. Have you ever used a glue gun?

2. What is a caper? (Choose one):
a. a planned illegal activity, typically involving theft.
b. a pickled delicacy made from the buds of a bush grown in the Mediterranean region.

3. What should never be placed on a coffee table when guests arrive? (Choose one):
a. drink glasses without coasters.
b. the K-Mart mail order catalog.
c. bare feet.

4. When using beans in a recipe:
a. do you use fresh or canned?
b. if fresh, do you soak the beans in water or chicken broth?
c. if you use broth, is it canned or homemade?
d. if homemade, was the chicken free range and did you slaughter it yourself?

5. In what month should tulip bulbs be planted?

6. When storing towels, do you fold them or roll them? If rolled, do you tie them with a ribbon before guests arrive?

7. Have you ever received an e-mail message offering extra-virgin olive oil? If so, did you reply?

Looks to us like these list-servers are suffering from DSM-IV diagnosable cabin fever --but still, it's witty enough to spread around.
