Reality Remixed: Like Disco Lemonade
What better place than here?
What better time than now?


Friday, January 11, 2002
So this time around, I was paired up with Kacy. I've yet to come up with questions for her since I've had so much on my mind, but I can at least answer her questions to give you guys something more to read than my problems.

1. The "Dates From Hell" entries are interesting, if not scary. What is your idea of a "perfect" date? Have you ever been on a perfect date?
A perfect date doesn't have to be anything in particular, just a date where we both enjoy ourselves, conversation flows freely and we're attracted to each other. My perfect date was when I was in college, the girl I was just starting to date had me convinced she was going to a school dance with someone else, but showed up at my a cappella concert at another college that night to take me to the dance. 2. What is your worst fear?
Probably losing my sight or hearing.

3. Better drivers, women or men?
Doesn't matter, I judge on an individual basis. My mom and I are about the same, though she might be a mildly better driver than I am. My dad is a horrible driver. There are some people who I don't trust behind the wheel, and there are some people that I feel comfortable riding with. Though I usually like to be the one driving, and most people seem to think I'm a pretty good driver.

4. What TV show would you really like to see come back in reruns?
I like "The Critic," which Comedy Central runs late on Friday nights. I've also been getting into "Sports Night," which Comedy Central runs weeknights at 1:30AM. I'd love to see "Sports Night" come back to prime time, it's really a great show.

5. Are people inherently good or evil?
It's all about the superego's control over the id.

6. If you had infinite money and time, what would you most like to learn how to do? Why?
Well, I've wanted to learn Spanish for a while because it's useful and plus it's fun to understand what people are saying when they think they're keeping something from you by speaking in a foreign language. My parents used to do that because they lived in Mexico for 4 years and were both fluent in Spanish, but once I was good enough at French, I was able to figure out what they were saying because the root tongue is the same. I still remember how their jaws dropped when they were speaking in Spanish and I told them, "Yes, let's go for ice cream!"

7. What is the most annoying celebrity in the world?
Where do I begin? At present, I'm going to have to say Carrot Top and Dell Dork Steve. But that may change depending on who's annoying me at the moment.

8. If you were turned into a mythical creature (fairy, unicorn, werewolf, etc.) by an evil sorceress, but were given a choice as to what you became, what would you pick and why?
Probably a giant. That way I could travel large distances in a short amount of time, plus I could help swat errant planes.

9. Boxers or briefs?
Boxer briefs, actually. I'm a hybrid man.

10. What is the most thoughtless birthday present you've ever received? The most thoughtful?
The most thoughtless present was probably a t-shirt. The most thoughtful was the car my parents gave me for my 16th birthday when I got my driver's license, though despite the financial burden, it helped them as well because you need a car to get around where I grew up and they both worked, so I could get myself around and they wouldn't have to worry about me.

11. What is your dream car?
For a long time, I wanted a DeLorean. And I had visions of buying an Acura Integra last year, but then I was laid off. Now, who knows? I love my baby, I just hope she continues to run for a while longer.

12. What was your all-time favorite toy when you were a kid? Did you sleep with a stuffed animal or security blanket? Do you still have this stuffed animal or blanket?
My favorite toy was a put-it-together town for Matchbox cars. It was great! I slept with my Curious George, which I still have, and my "blanteen," which I haven't had for years. Mom had two blankets that she thought was identical, but was amazed that I was always able to tell the difference between them. Years later, I told her that one of them had stitching along the end that I liked to run my fingers along and the other did not, that's how I could tell them apart.

13. With regards to your current or past roommates, what is your biggest "pet peeve"?
Lack of consideration for other people and their stuff. Lack of responsibility. Paying the rent on time and not bouncing the checks, keeping the apartment clean and cleaning up after oneself is kind of important.

14. Have you ever been told you are the "spitting image" of someone else? Who did you allegedly look like?
I do look just like my dad, and when I'm with my mom, people think I look like her too. But when I was a freshman or sophomore in high school, one of my teachers showed me a picture of Sylvester Stallone and his son -- I looked exactly like his son, except I wore glasses. It was eery.

15. What's your sign? Do you get along well with other people who are the same sign?
I'm a Sagittarius. Fiery. It shows, doesn't it? As far as getting along with other Sags, I don't ask people what their signs are but I've found mostly that I get along with people I know who are Sags.
