1. Do you have any idiosyncrasies or unusual quirks when it comes to food and/or eating?
Nah, I’m a meat and potato guy. I try to try new things. I tried frozen mashed sweet potato’s and they suck. Now I’m leary about trying the real thing.
2. Have you ever written love letters? If so, do you still have any of them?
No, I can one up you on that. I used to write poems for the girls I liked. really, really *bad* poems. I think I still have my book of poems on the bookcase.
3. How easy or difficult is it for you to say you’re sorry?
If I am in the right about something, and I don’t need to say it. I won’t but mostly, and Crystal can agree, I’ll say stuff like “Sorry, you were stuck in traffic.” Etc.
Manic Monday
1. Have you ever been asked to speak in front of an audience? If so, what was the occasion and how do you feel you did? I have been, and I used to be pretty good at it. When I was in Army Cadets, i used to teach classes.
2. If you were asked to appear on David Letterman’s show, do you have a “Stupid Human Trick” you could perform? I would just stand up there and tell jokes, and hope people laugh.
3. If you were asked to be in a circus, would you be more comfortable as a clown, a trapeze artist, a tightrope walker, a juggler, an animal trainer, or the ringmaster? Oh josh, I don’t know. How about the guy that takes the peoples tickets? Is that an option?
4. Take the quiz: What Circus Act Should You Perform? It says I should be a trapeze artist. I’m not too sure, I’m comfortable with that.
5. How old were you the first time you visited a circus? How did you like it? The first and only time I went to a circus, I got to ride an elephant, and I got my picture in the paper!
6. How often would you describe your real job as a “circus?” Do you think it seems to be getting more or less like a circus? My job, if its busy, can be just like a circus. But its getting better. I’m not training monkeys…anymore.
