Q&A For April 2008: The Answers

It’s time once again to answer some of your hard hitting questions.

Let’s get right to it:

What is your favorite healthy snack?

I love sliced green apple with fat free peanut butter spread on them. I’ve also been known to chew on carrots from time to time. Yogurt is a favorite of mine, as well.

What is your favorite non-healthy snack?

I try to stay away from the non-healthy snacks these days, but I do love salty potato chips and sugary donuts.

If you could only choose one topping (besides cheese) on a pizza, what would it be?

One topping aside from cheese? In those circumstances, probably sausage or pineapple.

For the record, my perfect pizza consists of pineapple, feta cheese and garlic.

Fried chicken: Nummy or Nasty?

It depends entirely upon who is making it. I generally stay away from fried chicken, due to how greasy it tends to be. But if made correctly, I enjoy it.

What is your favorite tasty beverage? (alcoholic and non-alcoholic)

Non-alcoholic beverages of choice include a good cup of tea, most soft drinks (though I find myself in the place of only drinking diet soft drinks, as regular soft drinks are far too sweet for me), and some flavored waters.

Alcoholic beverages is a far smaller list. If I’m drinking beer for the sole purpose of becoming intoxicated, I drink something boring and lacking in flavor, mostly American beers (Bud, Miller, Coors, etc.), but if I drink beer for pleasure, I drink something like Guinness.

Outside of beer, I prefer scotch.

What are your goals in life?

A tricky one.

The short answer is: to live.

However, there is, of course, more to it than that.

Professionally, I’d like to have at least one novel published, I’d like to complete a comic book with an artist who has the time to devote to it, I’d like to have a film in production, and I’d like to be recognized for at least one of these things.

Personally, I’d like to finally wed the woman I love, perhaps have another couple of children, and be financially stable enough to have a house we deserve as a family.

But yes, “to live”, is a good answer too.

Jennifer Rose asked:

How is everyone?

Everyone is fine. Money is tight, the weather is Apocalyptic and weird, but overall, we’re alive.

When are you guys coming to Scotland?

When money is not so tight. Which, sadly, I feel won’t be for some time.

Unless we win the lottery.

Watch any good movies lately?

The Orphanage, a Spanish film executive produced by Guillermo Del Toro, was very well done.

Planet Terror, part of Grindhouse and directed by Robert Rodriguez, was silly and gross and fun.

Other than that, haven’t been to the theater in quite some time. But we are planning on seeing Iron Man.

Would you eat haggis, black pudding, white pudding or spotted dick?

I’m usually very open to trying new things, even when I know what’s in them. So I’d say that, yes, I would try them. I can’t guarantee they’d become new favorites, but I would give them a try.

Dustin asked:

Do you find it strange that you have a friend named Jennifer Rose?

Given that Jennifer Rose is one of the single coolest people on the planet, I’d say no. Not strange at all.

Do you have any friends named Mike Jim? Or Frank Larry? How about Amy Paula?

No, no, and no. But this is very much like asking “You have a friend named Dustin Brown? Do you have friends named Jack Yellow? or Bill Red? How about Hannah Blue?”, thus it strikes me as funny.

Also, is she hot?

She is a beautiful person, inside and out.

Also, you’re a pervert.
