Question: Have you ever driven a motorcycle? My Answer: No - the things scare me. They're called "donorcycles" by ER workers for a reason, I imagine. I don't even take my scooter out when it's raining. This question was prompted when, on the way back from golfing today, I saw a guy on a crotch […]

Question: How did you purchase your car? Did you finance through the dealer, buy new or used, etc.? My Answer: I bought new, and traded in the two-year-old model that I'd had for one year. I financed through the dealer - a mistake as I now realize it given the interest rate I've got - […]

Question: What do you think of the katie.com debate? My Answer: I hope that Katie Jones sticks it to the Tarbox. Not to diminish what happened to Ms. Tarbox, but what she (via her lawyer) seem to doing to Katie Jones are quite deplorable in and of themselves. Rename the book. Let Ms. Jones alone. […]

Question: Which do you use more: your cell phone or your land phone? Do you even have both? My Answer: I use both equally, though when I move to PA I may simply drop the land line idea or go with just a local land line. Those only run about $25/month, right? Of course, I'll […]

Question: If you were to be invited to join one current musical group, which group would you join and what instrument would you play? My Answer: I'd join R.E.M., and I'd play the trumpet because that's all I really know how to play (the piano and the kazoo probably don't count). You are encouraged to […]

Question: If you were given a racehorse, what would you name it? My Answer: I've always thought the name "Greased Lightning" was appropriate for anything in a race, regardless of the fact that John Travolta sang it. ::shudder:: You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on […]

Question: What's the most unusual meat you've ever eaten? My Answer: I've had octopus, alligator, and shark. The rest are fairly normal. I've eaten rabbit, too, which may seem weird to some people (it's quite good cooked on a bed of rice). I'm always reminded of a bumper sticker when I think about eating animals… […]

Question: Are you excited about MovableType 3.1? My Answer: Yep. I am guessing that the PHP generation will require some exploration, and I think I'm only interested in two of the plugins (MT-B, which I'm currently running, and the graphing one KoalaRainbow). I dunno. I'll know more when it's closer to release. You are encouraged […]

Please answer this question from your memory (i.e. don't go Googling). You are encouraged to answer […]

Question: What one thing do you most wish to do for the rest of your life? My Answer: Tell Carey "I love you" (and mean it). Of course, my silly answers would be something like "breathe" and "live" and so on, but if I can tell Carey that I love her every day for the […]
