Question: What is your favorite dessert? My Answer: I'm not much of a dessert guy. More of a late night snack guy (ice cream). If I do eat dessert, a nice moist chocolate cake, cheesecake, gobs (you don't know what these are, don't worry), and cherry pie top my list. You are encouraged to answer […]

Question: What is your fondest memory of 2004? My Answer: Seeing Carey again for the first time ranks right up there (the actual memory is quite private, so I'll leave it at that). It's hard to believe I've known her (again) since April. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself […]

Question: What are your new year's resolutions? My Answer: I don't believe that a new year is the time to try to improve yourself - it's an ongoing thing. However, January 1 I will be kicking off my winter fitness "thing." Got all the equipment and, after today, will actually have the 30 minutes/day it […]

Question: If you could add one feature to the iPod, what would you add? My Answer: I'd add the iTunes visualizer to it. Why not? I don't need anything else from my iPods (including the photo stuff), so I'd jazz it up a little so it looks nice in my car. You are encouraged to […]

Question: What do you expect to see at MWSF 2005? My Answer: I don't even care. A new iLife? Yeah, whatever… iTunes is fine, and I use it constantly. iPhoto I use sometimes. iDVD and iMovie I almost never use. I just want a damn AppleWorks update! I doubt we'll see that. A headless iMac […]

Question: Have you ever used whitening strips or the brush-on pasty whitening cream? My Answer: Before a few days ago, no, I'd not. Some of my teeth are permanently (and slightly) stained due to an illness I had while they were growing in. Not much I can do about that, so I'm curious what will […]

My Answer: My mom makes these chocolate cookies with peanut butter chips (much like the ice cream) that, when they're soft and a little warm, are wonderful. With or without milk.

Question: What's the worst present you got this year? My Answer: I got absolutely no bad presents this year. None, zip, zilch. However, in the interest of answering the question, let me think… I'm going to have to go with, uhhh… No, I really don't have anything. I had some standouts that were great, but […]

Question: What's the best holiday present (Christmas, Hanukkah, birthday if those don't apply) you got this year? My Answer: I got $1000 in office furniture for $200, so that was nice. The best present was the coat Carey got me - it fits well, looks good, and is comfortable. Has lots of pockets and should […]

Question: Do you celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day? My Answer: Or perhaps you don't celebrate it. My family has traditionally done it "on the day," but we also usually travelled and had Christmas two days before, and then two days afterwards as well (paternal grandparents -2, maternal grandmother, then our house +2). […]

Question: What's your IQ score as determined by this silly test? My Answer: I scored 152. I promise, no screaming silly thing will pop up or anything like that. If you do take the little test (I don't place much value on IQ scores, but, whatever), try to do so fairly: no pen or paper, […]

Question: What the hell does being gay have to do with getting a job? My Answer: Hell if I know. I couldn't care less whether an employee of mine was gay or not, but just as I'd never hire a guy like Todd on the TV show Scrubs (think: overt sexual behavior, usually straight), I'd […]

Question: If you could automate one thing in your life for free, what would you automate? Answers like "my job" or "making money" or whatever are not in the spirit of the question, so don't be a goober. My Answer: I'd automate, uhhh, okay, TiVo already does that for me. Uhhh, no, my computer does […]

Question: Time magazine just announced that George W. Bush is their "Man of the Year" for 2004. Who would you choose as second place, and why? My Answer: I am choosing Ben Roethlisberger. 🙂 He's done quite nicely, and has had a far more immediate impact on my life than anyone else I can think […]
