What video games are you into?

I will at least try anything…not very good at many. I probably play Halo2 the most, can’t wait for 3 to come out. Forza is fun, but I suck at it.

Yes, the ladle has been in extremely ordinary\*, entirely unremarkable places.

Don’t worry about it. It _probably_ doesn’t have anything on it that will leave a permanent mark. Such as, to take something completely at random, squid ink.

[sub]\*“Ordinary” for _this_ place, that is.[/sub]

I love your username for this reason: it’s completely taken from another user’s username, which makes it completely uncreative, but yet it states clearly that it is in fact the “Most Creative Username Ever.” That, in turn, makes it the most ironic username ever.

Welcome aboard!

Footballs ok, I’m more into baseball though…eating pizza is good. I’ve been told I made a kick ass homemade pizza. But sorry guys, I am happily married. 🙂

Girls have boys. Usually wrapped around the pinky of one of their hands.

A little mechanic’s soap and some elbow grease and they wash off though.
