Favorite musician: Ben Folds. His music rocks and he’s such a down-to-earth, nice guy. I’ve met him twice and he is truly respectful of his fame and his fans. Favorite thing to wear: hockey jerseys. I’m somewhat of a collector of them, but since the San Jose Sharks are my favorite team, I own all 5 of their jerseys and wear them the most. People have commented to me on many occaisions “Why are you NOT wearing a hockey jersey?” Favorite thing to do (by myself): play video games. Call me a dork if you must, but I love my PS2. I even got my girlfriend in gaming, she has her own PS2 and even her own copies of GTA3 and Vice City. Favorite fast food joint: Boston Market. There aren’t that many of them, so whenever I’m near one, I try to eat there. Favorite gas station: Sheetz. They have really cheap gas, and kick-ass hoagies and cookies. ---
