My car. 99 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34
2. Biggest meal you ate yesterday?
Umm.. I had pizza. My friend and I split a large.
3. Most you've drank in the last year?
A few beers at New Year's. I'm not a big drinker.
4. Most fun you've had in the last month?
Pass. The last month has been anything but fun for me.
5. Most times you've had sex in one day in the last year?
Umm.. I don't remember the exact number, but it was a lot.
6. Last movie you saw in the theater?
Walk the Line. Good show.
7. Last movie you purchased or rented and watched at home?
Most recent purchased or most recent watched? I just watched Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, but my last one purchased was (sadly) Be Cool. Not nearly as good as Get Shorty.
8. Largest amount of cold, hard cash you've had in your hands in the last year?
Actual bills? About $1500. In the form of a cashier's check, $8000.
9. Most you've spent on a meal in the last year?
I took Katie out to dinner on her birthday, cost me about $80.
10. Last professional sporting event you went to?
A Detroit Tigers game in the summer.
11. Last piece of clothing you bought?
The socks I'm wearign right now.
12. Last game you played?
Of what sort? I played UT2k4 with my friend the other night. I also shoot pool, did that a couple weeks ago.
13. Last person you talked to on the phone?
My mother.
14. Longest you've stayed awake?
Ever? About 72 hours. In the last year, about 40.
15. Most expensive item of attire you have on at this very moment?
This shirt was about $30, I think.
16. Longest solo road trip you've made?
Umm.. 5 hours or so. Probably around 300 miles.
17. Shortest airline flight you've made?
In the last year I haven't made one. In my lifetime, it'd be the one and only, which was from here (Toronto) to Edmonton, Alberta.
18. Furthest you've ever commuted for a job?
Umm.. well, the side business requires me to go all over. I've gone as far as the west end, about 60 or 70 miles.
19. Furthest you've ever been from home this year?
About 300 miles. See above.
20.Biggest fresh water fish you've ever caught?
I don't even remember. It couldnt've been very big.

EDIT - To put the sleep thing in context, I used to take high doeses of corticosteroids, which can cause hardcore insomnia. That's where 72 hours comes from. I'm with BigBen in that I don't think the human body can manage much more than that; I mean, it took some serious drugs to even get me that far.
