Question: What are your summer plans? My Answer: To golf a lot. Carey wants to go on a camping trip at some point, too, though I'm not sure how that will fit in very easily unless she wants to put up with some holiday crowds. My father-in-law is going to Europe with my mother-in-law's mother […]

Question: How many videos appear in your iTunes "Videos" playlist? What are they? My Answer: Most of mine are music videos (and most free, either with an album purchase or because I encoded them myself), but I have movies, funny video clips, and a few other more serious things in there as well. You are […]

Question: Are you going to watch the World Cup? My Answer: A little. I think International Football would be a whole lot more exciting if, once taken from a game, you could come back in. The way soccer is played at this level, once you're substituted, you're done. This leads to star players playing a […]

Question: What is your favorite number and why? My Answer: I like 6 and 9, and thus, 18. I've always liked 6, and my love of "9" comes from golf. The fact that both 6 and 9 can be multiplied (not by each other) to get 18 is a bonus, but I liked 18 when […]

I have a loaner car - a Volvo S80. I'm not much of a car person, but this one seems pretty slick (as it should for about $40k). Or maybe it's just that it's a car and I haven't driven one in awhile… When I push the gas down hard, acceleration! You don't get that […]

Question: Do you watch 24? My Answer: I've never seen more than a few minutes of an episode. I always missed the first one and I figured I'd be out of the loop. When will the show end? Will it be worth buying the whole series on DVD? Or should I just rent on NetFlix? […]

Question: What is your favorite airport into which to fly (or out of which to fly)? My Answer: I don't have one. They all suck. 🙂 But I'm curious what others think. I don't do much air travel… You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on […]

Question: What is your standard tip for what you deem to be average service? My Answer: 15% works, though when leaving cash I usually round to the nearest (or highest) dollar. Sometimes $3.77 becomes $5 if it's easy to leave a five (or $8.33 to $10, etc.). You are encouraged to answer the Question of […]
