Surf the TFP of course! Or read, or watch tv, or go for a walk around the neighbourhood.

What's your favourite room in a house? (points for an answer other than "the bedroom. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.")

What one change would you like to make about your living space?

Edit...Late as always.

Favorite room is the family room; lots of light and a view of the lake.

Yes I did, and his name was Trey. He was a grade higher (fifth or sixth I think) than me and he used to try and beat me up during recess. In many ways that formed me into the person that I am today. I'll never forget his name, but I would not confront him, given the chance. He wouldn't be worth a second glance.

Thanks for that great question, I've actually given a lot of thought to this situation. The biggest question here, imho, is how close the attacker is to my person. Is the attacker intent on causing harm with a melee weapon, or at close range with a firearm? If yes, then definitely the hand gun. Is the attacker at a distance, trying to kill me with throwing stars and crossbow bolts? Then, definitely the rifle. Totally sweet.

How do you feel about your job/work?

How many electrohic gadgets do you have-- what are they... do you use them on a regular basis? did you get it because all your friends had one or because you though it wouldbe useful... and is it?

My job is the most on my mind these days. I have a to make a report in a week about where this position is going and honestly, I think it's going nowhere. Do I tell the truth and get out of a job or do I stay mum and lose my self respect?

Add to this, the job interview I had last week... It woudl be a great job, if I get it. But it's in Singapore.

Careers are complicated.

Well, my Wife and son are going to France for a week in the Spring with her Parents . Her Parents won a weekend at a Chateau, so they are building a vacation around it and taking them along.

I can't go because of work and funds , but then I'll have the place to myself for a week with no parental responsibilities.


Do you ever take notice of the lighting at concerts or shows?

Always... back in high school and college, i was really involved in the backstage workings of the theater.. .mainly in costume design and makeup, but lighting was always interesting. because how just the lighting could make the costumes and makeup look either outstanding or really crappy.. it was really neat... plus the lighting guys were a fun group to hangout with...

I don't have feelings for Fritos... but their corniness does grace my lips from time to time (just not for the past several years).

EDIT: I tear up at the drop of a hat... seriously. I hate it. I watch TV and it makes me tear up. Music, there are few songs that make me tear up.

Scarlett O'Hara. She has traits that I wish I had...she goes after what she wants, has loads of self confidence, and she can make a set of curtains look fantastic
Sure, she also steals other people's husbands, marries people she doesn't love, and is a poor mother...but hey, we all have our faults.

What is your favorite Disney movie?

Yes. I used to portray a vampire, in a local "Haunted House", for charity. Still have the cape, as it was a "real" one, and not a $3.99 one at K-Mart.

You invite six people over for a dinner party (living people). You can invite anyone. Who are they, and why?

I'm not sure it needs to be said. I'm still not quite sure I comprehend it. When they get old enough, I'll have them read Art Spiegelman's book on the subject(In The Shadow Of No Towers). That's the best explanation I've come across. i highly highly highly recommend it.

Have you read it?
