I’m feeling a meme coming on...got this one from a random stranger’s blog:
1. What is the best way to die?
In one’s sleep.
2. What’s the worst way to die?
Beaten to death by horde of angry midgets wielding frozen pork haunches.
3. What do you hope to hear God say when you reach Heaven?
“Oh, thank Me you’re here! I need you to take over for a while!”
4. True or False: What goes up must come down.
False
5. The cheesiest and most-asked question on the net: what are you wearing?
From the ground up: black Sketchers, black socks, blue jeans, pink panties and a black sweatshirt with “Pink Elephant Food & Spirits, Dublin, Ireland” on it.
6. What songs are you into these days?
I’ve been listening to Queens of the Stone Age “Songs for the Deaf” pretty frequently and of course the usual suspects (King Crimson’s “Prozac Blues”, “Sartori in Tangier”, “Matte Kudesai” and Led Zeppelin’s “Carouselambra”, “Kashmir” and “Hot Dog”)
7. What are you doing this weekend?
Meeting with a potential officiant for our wedding; running errands; getting together with Cheryl on wedding business; not getting enough sleep, enough time to read, enough time to relax or enough time to work on the floor, like pretty much every weekend.
8. Can you keep a secret?
Yes.
9. How often did you work out this week and what did you do?
I don’t work out. I’m allergic to things that make me sweat. I climbed 3 flights of stairs in the parking deck and one in the office building, however.
10. Tell me an irrational fear that you have.
Slugs. I’m utterly grossed out and terrified by them.
11. What’s the most important news story this week?
That poncey fuckwit with too much time and money on his hands trying to break another flight record - mind you, Britney Spears driving around without strapping her baby into his carseat is a close second.
12. If you could be another person for a day (not a real person, more like a character), who would you be? What does this person do and why do you want to be him/her?
He’s not fictional, which I think is implied by the question, but for just one day I’d like to be my dog Sprocket. He plays with his toys and his brother, he has treats, he has no worries, and every second of every day, he is the most completely, thoroughly happy being I have ever seen.
As far as a fictional character, I’d like to be Rincewind the Wizzard [not a typo] from Terry Pratchett’s Discworld. I shall sum up the life of Rincewind with two Pratchett quotes:
∙ “‘Luck is my middle name,’ said Rincewind, indistinctly. ‘Mind you, my first name is Bad.’"
∙ “Rincewind could scream for mercy in nineteen languages, and just scream in another forty-four.”
I’d like to be him because I already pretty much live the life of Rincewind and it would be nice to try it with the magic.
13. Tell a blatant lie.
I really, really care a lot about Tom Cruise's private life.

You shouldn't let people say 'ass' on your blog.
It's a negative influence on today's youth (most of whom read your blog).

George, you are SO RIGHT! - and while normally I would adhere to a more stringent standard of decency, I figured the heads of most of today's youth had already exploded after reading the previous post in which my brother says The Dreaded Eff Word seven (7, VII, count 'em SEVEN) times!
