20 Questions...

Today, at work, we did an Ice Breaker at this general meeting thing... Because I really don't feel like being original, I will share the following B.S. written earlier today under great duress, and not really shared.

Yeah! Here we go! Let's bore!

1. If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you get?

It would be silly of me not to say popcorn, as there was a time I practically lived on the stuff, and will do so again! I love popcorn… LOVE IT!!!! I will need a twelve step program for this food product. I just know it.

2. If you were an animal, what would you be and why?

I am an animal. I am a human being which I believe are animals. We have a biological classification and everything. SO, being that I am pretty used to this human being animal thing, I shall continue being human…. Or maybe a hamster. They get to play on wheels and in those tube like cave thingys. Those are cool.

3. What is one goal you'd like to accomplish during your lifetime?

I don't know. I've rather lost sight of my goals. I guess I would like to meet somebody, settle down, and try that family thing … or not.

4. When you were little, who was your favorite super hero and why?

My favorite childhood hero was Spider-man. I loved the wisecracking and the fact he was just a regular, nerdy teenager… that could beat people up and climb walls. Spider-man! Spider-man! Doing the things a spider can!

5. Who is your hero? (a parent, a celebrity, an influential person in one's life)

My hero? At present I really don't have a hero that I draw inspiration from… That's rather sad really. Maybe I should make this a lifetime goal… find a hero or heroine. You know what… I'd rather inspire. "Hey, folks! This is what you shouldn't do!" Wouldn't that be great? I could have my own show on Fox or something.

6. What's your favorite thing to do in the summer?

Read… I do most of my reading during the summer. I find a nice spot in Mother Nature and just go at it… 25 books this summer alone. I also like driving around during the summer… going here… going there… going anywhere. I don't like being home during the summer.

7. If they made a movie of your life, what would it be about and which actor would you want to play you?

A movie about me? That would be just crazy! What would it be about? That would be crazy, too! I can't think of anything. I don't think my life is worth a Hollywood budget. Maybe a quick video on YouTube…made by a camera phone… showing me eating breakfast, as I am sure most people would like to know all about my breakfast eating habits. The actor playing me in this wonderful YouTube video? It would be a muppet… one of those old guys sitting in the balcony from the old Muppet Show… Stadler… Maybe Waldoff… Either or.

8. If you were an ice cream flavor, which one would you be and why?

I like sherbets… I think it would be rainbow sherbet mainly because… well, first, sherbet is damn cool both literally and figuratively. Second, you could add Sprite or 7Up to it, and it becomes another wonderful dessert type thing… called a FREEZE…. AND, it's just damn tasty because it is made up of a plethora of many tastes, like me.

9. What's your favorite cartoon character, and why?

I have a soft spot in my heart for Yosemite Sam….. "Ohhhhsss, Rabbit, I hates you!"

10. If you could visit any place in the world, where would you choose to go and why?

I would go too Munich's Octoberfest… and have… one fucking beer. I don't think I need to really explain why.

11. What's the ideal dream job for you?

Sitting in my mountain home… high in a loft over looking some crystal clear lake… writing. Did I mention the part that people would just mail me money? That would be part of it too. AND, I would have a dog. He would write, but he'd be there watching me write, and bring me the mail full of money when it came.

12. Are you a morning or night person?

Neither….. I like… ummmm… ummmmmm… I guess I am a night person only because everything in the morning really irritates me. Today, for example, everything irritated me. In fact, everything irritated me the morning before that… and the morning before that too. I hate mornings.

Mornings irritate me.

13. What are your favorite hobbies?

I used to like doing that one thing. I don't do that as much anymore. It got really expensive.

As for other hobbies? I just don't … it… I like to write answers to silly questions. I also like not answering silly questions.

I just do whatever I feel inspired to do at that given moment.

14. What are your pet peeves or interesting things about you that you dislike?

I HATE when people don't flush the toilet! I hate that with a bloody passion. I don't like people leering over me either. I don't like being touched by strangers.... I don't like enclosed places. I don't like crowded places. AND, I don't like mornings.

Interesting things about me that I don't like? I am a stubborn, cynic that, in terms of relationships, is a big, cowardly lion.

15. What's the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?

Dirt? Sure, dirt, but I was young, I needed the money… (I was making mud pies with the sisters way back when, and I was tricked into eating one… Sisters… ergggg).

16. Name one of your favorite things about someone in your family.

I like my sister's deck. I love sitting out there… I love being there. Hell, I take care of that damn deck. This summer? I sealed it.

17. Tell us about a unique or quirky habit of yours.

I flush the toilet before using it…. I also like to… nah, I will leave it at this.

18. If you had to describe yourself using three words, it would be…

Stink, Stank, Stunk…. OR…. "Just Joe" guy.

19. If someone made a movie of your life would it be a drama, a comedy, a romantic-comedy, action film, or science fiction?

All of the above…… you really should see my breakfasts.

20. If I could be anybody besides myself, I would be…

Just somebody else.

Yeah, I know, not my best work, but it'll do... Well, off to run some errands, take a walk, and eat some grub.

Peace.
