Interesting:
An interesting fact: Snook are protandric hermaphrodites, meaning that many change sex from male to female at some point in their lives. This transition usually occurs between two and seven years of age or when they reach a fork length of 17-30 inches. For this reason, most very large fish are females.
That, and much more, can be learned at Snookangler.com.

Sometimes I utterly and completely fail to understand how anyone opens spam, let alone responds to them. They ask you questions like "do you suffer from a small penis?" or "are you having trouble pleasing your wife?" "Overweight? We can help!" "Need a date?" "In Financial Trouble?" "Want bigger breasts?"
WHO opens this crap? Seriously? Ugh.

Question: What percentage of your acquaintances are gay or bisexual?
My Answer: I think that about 5% may be gay, and I'm positive that about 7% are gay. So, I'll say about 10% of the people I know are gay. Of my "friends," a word I reserve for about ten people in my life, one is bisexual.

I see that Xounds 2.0 is out. I was a big fan of the Interface sounds in Mac OS 9, and I used Xounds for awhile on X, but since removing all "haxies" I've got increased application stability and a tweak faster speed of operation. The only third-party stuff that shows up in my System Preferences is my PowerMate control panel, Synergy's control panel, and TinkerTool.

Question: How many pieces of software do you buy per month, on average?
My Answer: I buy about three pieces of software per month, be they some $5 shareware or some $999 video editing software (at upgrade price, of course!).

I don't care for beer much, but I bet that the jet-powered beer cooler could easily be adapted to suit my Coca-Cola cravings…

Every month (since February) I post my site's referral search terms (not what people search for on my site). It's an interesting peek that illustrates "how people are finding me." Here's August's…

Monday night I got bad news: Jim was scheduled to work on Tuesday. That would have put our plans to go fishin' on hold for another week, and figuring the trip was cancelled, I stayed up way past my bed time to get some work done. I woke up at 7:30 (damn sunrise!) and puttered around the apartment. Jim called at 9 to say "we're goin' fishin' after all!" I got directions to Key Largo and quickly assembled everything I would need.

Question: If you could change one thing about your city, town, or neighborhood, what would you change?
My Answer: I would make the average age of its residents 23. I would make them all female. I would make them all attractive and intelligent. I would make them all single and desperately in need of some geek love. These questions get easier every day!

Question: What is the oddest thing you've ever done in the snow?
My Answer: One time, in early March, I just couldn't get the golf bug out of my system. In two and sometimes three feet of snow (and sometimes just a wee bit of grass), I headed up to my favorite course and played a full eighteen holes. My toes hurt, my hands hurt, my nose hurt. Damn was it great!

Question: What is the worst word you can think of for a body part (male or female)?
My Answer: I've never really liked the four-letter "c" word (as it pertains to a woman's sensitive region). In fact, it's my least favorite word.

In light of recent comments about Madonna and Britney's lame publicity stunt, I present to you two pieces of evidence to support my position that camel toes are indeed funny stuff…
Edit (May 31, 2011): As these links no longer go to their original sites, I've removed them. And Jamie has likely matured since this post in 2003, as have I. Camel toes are still kind of funny.

No further comments necessary.
P.S. Okay, maybe one, and that comment is "man, wicked camel toe!" 😀
