“The Best of The Straight Dope,” “Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader Plunges into History”

**WHAT’S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD?**  
I have one of those nifty laser-light mouses (mice?) so I don’t need a mouse pad

**FAVOURITE BOARD GAME?**  
Monopoly

**FAVOURITE MAGAZINE?**  
Maxim, FHM - something about seeing famous girls in their underwear…

**FAVOURITE SMELLS?**  
banana bread when it first comes out of the oven

**FAVOURITE SOUNDS?**  
Any music coming out of my computer that I have downloaded

**WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD?**  
Guilt, heart-break, foot-in-mouth syndrome

“Oh great, I’m awake. Now what?!?”

**ROLLER COASTER, SCARY OR EXCITING?**  
Fun as hell

**HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE?**  
At least one so the CallerID can pick it up. Damn bill-collectors not gonna talk to me!

I like the name Dominic for a boy and Chastity for a girl, but I doubt I’ll find a woman agreeable enough to let us name our kids that…

Italian, Mexican, Chinese … anything edible.

I would do better in school so that I could actually be almost finished with my college education, rather than about to start it.

I had a pen pal in New Zealand who I always wanted to meet, but she doesn’t count … I’d go witheither Jimi Hendrix or Janis Joplin

**FAVOURITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK?**

Taurus - stubborn and full of bull

**DO YOU EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI?**  
yes

**IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB YOU WANTED WHAT WOULD IT BE?**

I’ve never looked under my bed, so I couldn’t tell you. Kind of afraid, actually

**WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE NUMBER?**  
420 (teeheehee)

**FAVOURITE SPORT TO WATCH?**  
Since wrestling isn’t a “real” sport, I’ll say either football or baseball

**SAY ONE NICE THING ABOUT THE PERSON WHO POSTED THIS TO BEFORE YOU.**  
Puhna is a really good guy who has helped me through a lot of shit lately. Thanks, bud! (while I was previewing, delphica snuck in there. I don’t really know much about her, so I’ll say, um, nice post!)

**PERSON WHOSE RESPONSES YOU LOOK FORWARD TO READING THE MOST?**  
My buddy Angel of the Lord, or mark me down in the “whoever has the best answers” category\*\*

Rereading my own post (despite the judicious use of “Preview”) I realize I should have made it clear that it’s 1 man and 1 cat _in addition to myself._ I am neither a man nor a cat.
