Favorite Book/Author:
Hmm... I like any "Top 10 bestseller" fiction.. if i had to pick only one (or two?) it'd be Stephen Frey's "The Takeover" (which is also good to listen to on tape) and Jean Heller's "Maximum Impact".. I also like most any short story compilations..

Batman or Superman? Batman!

How much can you bench?
It's gone up a lot since Thanksgiving, (mostly because sheri has been joining me for some workouts... ) ...but has gone down a little since I've been moving and busy with work for about the last month.. I'd say right now I might be able to do 250

Ketchup or Mustard?
KETCHUP! (how about WASABI? and that great feeling of it shooting up your nose and down the back of your head?)

In any of your swing competitions, have you ever imagined the entire audience wearing only their underwear?
You can't handle the truth!!!

Favorite TV Show Don't watch much anymore except for "Whose Line Is It Anyway" .. other than that, I loved "Quantum Leap", "MacGyver", the "Batman/Superman Animated Series", and "The TICK"

Favorite Place to Visit:
Haar in Germany was really nice... WLHC 2000 was the first time i ever left the US (not counting Canada).. I also like forests/national parks and beaches..

Favorite Movie: Lots! Chasing Amy, When Harry Met Sally, Shaolin Soccer, The Usual Suspects, any Batman/Superman Animated movies, and finally, they very underrated GREASE 2

Who Let The Dogs Out?:
Obviously someone who needs a responsibility lesson or two from THE TICK!

Dream Car:
Don't laugh, but I love minivans! My favorite has got to be the Toyota Previa... second to that would be the Suburban just for it's bigness..

Favorite Quote: "If your knees aren't green by the end of the day, it's time to seriously rethink your life" (paraphrased).. Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes

Something you say too much:
"It's like renting a movie ..."

Peanut Butter or Jelly:
hm...can't have one without the other... unless it's really sweet peanutbutter like in candy...

What electronic-age "convenience" could you not do without?:
These days it would be my laptop..or my PDA

Favorite Food:
It must be nutritious and in bar form and have a max of 40% carb and a min of 30% protein .. I also have a weakness for McD's and Jack-In-The-Box ... sue me ...

Favorite Drink:
non-alcoholic: Diet Coke with a little Lemonade .. alcoholic: depends on mood.. gin & tonic, mudslide, tequila shot, and / or bloody mary .. and HOOCH!



Paper or Plastic?
I switch every month

What did you want to be when you were growing up?
I know this one! Actually in first grade, we had an assignment to write an "autobiography". In it was a "My future" section.. i actually re-read my "autobiography" recently and found that my aspirations at the time were to own a video game arcade so I could play free games to my heart's content... hmm... over two decades later, look at me.. I'm at a small startup that works with video game kiosks and I can play our games to my heart's content... strange world...

Unix or Windows?
Windows XXX is just an OS, UNIX is an art form!

Any strange quirks most people don't know about?
Whenever I am out walking/running by the beach, over a bridge, or along a mountain trail, I have a strange compulsion to want to throw something of substance over the edge such as my car keys or my wallet.. haven't done it yet (thank goodness!) ..but I bet a psychologist would have a field day with the deeper meaning of all of this...
