I don't really watch Sean Hannity. The story on Obama's dijon mustard burger was pointless, but I don't see how it was a smear. I think it was Sean Hannity's failed attempt at light humor.

Also, I like dijon mustard. But not on my burger. GEEZ, THOSE STUPID DEMS!!!!!!11111111!

Did you notice that Obama mis-pronounces "Dijon" with a flat middle-America accent, while Hannity says those tricky French vowels correctly?
I thought Obama said it fine. Although, I took Spanish intead of French in school.

Writing or something artsy.

I am always afraid I'll die unexpectadly in an accident because then people will find my unfinished stories and see how they suck.

...wait so you write stuff? It can't be that bad. What kind of things do you write? Ever consider acting or trying to get something you have written published or performed?

...food?
Pizza.

Awesome, what kind of Pizza?
Stuff that is finished isn't too bad, but unfinished stories are either unfinished because THEY SUCKED, or because I haven't fixed them yet. Not everything I write is good. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and write ideas down that make no sense, like writing a story about Walt Whitman and Mark Twain being friends.

I haven't had any big publications yet. I wrote some screenplays that agents were interested in, but never made it all the way.

I could never be an actor. I would be too nervous, and also would suck at it.

Pizza:

Favorite is probably garlic and tomato (like chopped garlic or roast garlic, or both on top). I also like pineapple and ham/bacon. Or chicken parm pizza is also one of my faves. I like almost any kind of pizza. Sometimes you have to go old-school and eat pepperoni.

I did a lot of research and found a good breeder. Here's their website: http://www.deeprunretrievers.com/

When I was a kid we had a cocker spaniel and a depressed golden mix. They both got pancreatitis and had to be put down when I was little. When I was a teenager, my grandmother gave us a pug which we later found out was from a puppy mill. The dog had lots of problems as a result. Shelters or good breeders are the way to go!
strappado wrote: What do you do for a living? Do you like it? What's your dream job?
I freelance write online materials for educational websites and online encyclopedias. It's okay. It allows me to be home with my puppy! My dream is to make money from writing books/screenplays.

Kublai Khan wrote:Favorite wine? (winery or varietal or region)

I like Chardonnay made in stainless steel... I'm not such a fan of oakey wines. I also like Pinot Grigios. I like Veritas winery near me, and Barborsville. The wine I buy at the supermarket is Kendall Jackson Chardonnay.


What lead you to discover mafia? mafiascum.net?

I was in a film competition run by the guys who made "Cry Wolf" and they play mafia in that movie. Searched the internet and voila!


Most ambitious knitting project?

I've made cable blankets and sweaters, as well as all kinds of baby clothes. I'm not sure what's been the most ambitious. Sometimes I find straight knitting to be harder because it gets boring to me. I like a complicated pattern because it keeps me interested.


Last concert you attended?

Michale Buble


David Bowie: Freak or Genius?

Genius.


Do you have a green thumb?

Yes! I spread 13 tons of dirt last year using only a wheelbarrow and my brute strength. Then I made grass grow. It was exciting. I know a lot about plants and gardening now. I have had some success with things that are difficult to maintain, like roses and hydrangeas. I think the secret is finding a good location for a given type of plant. In the right location they don't need too much care. If a plant needs too much care, most people (including me) will eventually let it die by accident. The other secret is miracle grow stakes. Don't bother with the granules that you have to apply every week or two. That's for fools. Stick a miracle grow stake in the ground once a season.


Morning person or evening person?

Morning person. Although, I can sleep any time.


EXTRA CREDIT: Ask yourself a question and answer it.

Q: Are you sorry you lynched Kublai Khan in that newbie game?
A: YES :cry: :cry: :cry:

The best one is always the one I'm working on because I always think they'll turn out awesome. I'm working on "The Changeling" right now. And Angelina Jolie will not be starring in it.

I'm more genre than literary. I do comedy, romantic comedy, sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, romance. I prefer first person, but I'm trying to do more third person. Common themes include mistaken identity, magical elements.
