Sail is something that goes on a boat, but sometimes people "sail" through life (it's a verb of course). Today I didn't quite "sail" through my test, and it wasn't a "breeze" either. I got a question or two more than I needed correct to pass, though the ones I didn't get right were all […]

Question: What was your favorite "old" Mac OS extension or control panel? My Answer: Easily the Oscar the Grouch extension, man! "I love it, becauuuuse, it's trash!" and "I loooooooooove trash" were my anthems. Well, they were cute, anyway, and I still find myself singing the notes when I empty trash from my current Macs. […]

You can beg for a lot of things. Forgiveness springs to mind. You can't beg for love, though, it just makes you sound pathetic. Unless you're a Charles Dickens character, and they don't every literally beg (ha ha, get it?), but they still beg. They tug at your little strings. But in the real world? […]

Question: If you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be (and why)? My Answer: Jamie prompted this one by reminding me of one of my favorite questions. My answer has always been "myself." I'd like to see how I look, how I act, how I might be perceived by others. […]

Sketches are drawings, and as I was never very good at drawing, I rarely sketched. I always thought that if I walked around with a sketchbook though that people would find me artistic, even if they had no proof. After all, artists are mysterious and very personal, so I would be excused from having to […]

I rarely get sick. I'm apparently from good stock, as my parents rarely get sick either. We muscle through it. I don't have runny noses or coughs or even headaches very often. I stay in shape and don't injure myself terribly often either. When I am sick, though, I concentrate on how sick I am, […]

Question: Have you ever had a "friend with benefits?" If so, how'd it end (if it has)? My Answer: Aside from Naked Weekend Crystal, no. She and I had a great time, but not of the kind "benefits" usually entail. Though I enjoy sex on a physical level, it's not really worth all the effort […]

I've often wondered why "box" can refer to part of a woman. Well, "often" isn't quite right. Sometimes. Women, though, are the unboxiest gender. Women are curvy, not rigid and full of right angles. Silly! Of course, "box" typically doesn't refer to, uhh, that, but instead to packing and shipping and "yay, I got something […]

Question: Do you wish you'd waited longer to lose your virginity? My Answer: Nope. I certainly wasn't terribly young (18) and it was in the midst of a relationship that was to last five years. Unfortunately, I think I'm one of the few people in the world who doesn't wish they'd waited longer. This QotD […]

Question: What's the latest you ever slept in? My Answer: One time I left college on a Friday at about 1pm. As I drove home, I became increasingly tired. I could barely unpack the car when I arrived home at 6pm and promptly went to bed. I got up to use the restroom once or […]

Question: If your phone rang right this instant, who would you most want it to be? My Answer: The person whom I wish it to be already knows, so I'll have to go with my second choice: Steve, errr, no, Shania, hmmm, wait. Uhhh, my mother, to let me know that she got her flowers. […]

Blast is an interesting word. You can have a blast. You can buy a game called "Worms Blast" which is actually nothing like Worms Armageddon, a pretty awesome game. Speaking of games, E3 is going on this week (I guess) and Rob and I watched the Doom III .avi today with VLC. It looks awesome. […]

Dictation happens all the time. My users are dictating features for FTPeel to me. I dictate flight schedules for a friend who's flying in to see me at a wedding (not my own), etc. Dictators exist, too, and some of them are removed from power by force. Some we just hope die soon (Fidel, perhaps?). […]

Question: How many different haircuts (styles) have you had in your lifetime? My Answer: I've had about one. There was an MC Hammer-inspired time that I got "steps" in the side of my head, near my ears, but otherwise my hair has pretty much been the same way since I was born. And when it's […]

Question: What is your favorite alcoholic beverage? My Answer: I like amaretto sours. I like amaretto with chocolate milk. I like amaretto in nearly everything. Sometimes, though, I drink a drink I invented in college (it has a somewhat inappropriate name, I may post it in the comments). Mmmm, amaretto… How often do I drink? […]
