QotD: Water

Question: How far do you live from an appreciable source of water? What's the ideal distance? My Answer: Like most apartment complexes in Florida, mine has a pond. If that doesn't count, a slightly bigger "lake"* is 1/4 mile away, and the Atlantic Frickin' Ocean is about three. I'd love to live right on the […]

QotD: Cheats

Question: Have you ever cheated on a test? Helped someone cheat? Been caught? My Answer: If you define cheating as using resources that a teacher forgot to take, say, off of the chalkboard or off of the wall (a poster or two), then yes, I have. Otherwise, my answers are no, yes, and no. You […]

QotD: Convincing

Question: What's the silliest thing you've ever convinced anyone was true? My Answer: I'm not certain. Many of my friends (not I) smoke pot now and then, so it's pretty easy to convince them of things when they're high. Just today, for example, I convinced a friend of mine that if you searched Google for […]

QotD: RIAA

Question: What would you do to the head honchos of the RIAA if you could get away with anything? My Answer: Death would be too easy. I'm a creative guy, but I think I'd have to spend some time coming up with a real game plan here. Perhaps it'd involve making the executives listen to […]

QotD: Salary Cap

Question: Should Major League Baseball implement a salary cap? My Answer: Hell yeah. I don't think they ever will, though. The player's associate is too powerful. I'm a small-market (Pittsburgh) fan, and these days, I'm wondering how they ever managed to win three pennants in a row as recent as the early 90s. You are […]

QotD: High School

Question: If you could date your high school sweetheart again (pretend you're single), would you? My Answer: I would. We never dated the first time, and she's got a kid now, but she's still the same girl I remember. More digging is required to determine what's changed. Y'know, aside from the offspring. You are encouraged […]

QotD: Router

Question: Do you use a router at home? Wireless? Wired? My Answer: I've got both a LinkSys 10/100/1000 4-port router as well as an AirPort Base Station (Extreme). The LinkSys seems to be dying, so I may replace it soon. It randomly kicks me offline every few hours. The past few days I've had the […]

QotD: Desktop Rotation

Question: How often do you change your desktop picture? My Answer: Today I set it to change every 5 minutes for the first time ever (outside of a demonstration). For the previous, oh, eight years I've changed my desktop picture about every three weeks. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for […]

QotD: Dating

Question: Match.com asks you to choose among the following choices when picking your "ideal date." Which would you choose? My Answer: I'll list the answers in the extended entry. I will say that they were missing the best choice: "Good Company: doing anything so long as it's with someone who's unique and cool." I don't […]

QotD: Payments

Question: What monthly payment do you hate making most? My Answer: My scooter payment. I need to sell my scooter for a small profit, pay this off, and apply the rest of the money to something else. I rarely get out on the scooter anymore. Anyone want a $2500 scooter with less than 500 km […]

QotD: Refund

Question: Did/will you get a refund? My Answer: $1105 to the good, baby! You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Pot

Question: Have ya ever smoked pot? And don't give me any "I didn't inhale" jokes either. My Answer: Ummm, nope. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

Taxes Done

Yay! Congratulations. The taxing authority accepted this tax return on Apr. 13, 2004. Your DCN is (removed). TurboTax will now help you complete any follow-up paperwork that is necessary. I'm done. 🙂

QotD: Rumors

Question: Which rumor do you wish was actually true? My Answer: I've left this open-ended, though I expect most answers will deal with Mac-related things. I haven't got any rumors I wish to be true. I don't need a PDA. I don't need a new portable. I don't need a new display. I don't need […]

QotD: Sick Days

Question: Do you use your sick days liberally or hoard them? My Answer: I'm a hoarder. I've never called in sick. I'm tempted to use one soon. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.
