Mookie asks, what can we but answer?

1. Middle Name?
Robert

2. Favorite Animal?
Wolf. Timber wolf to be specific but any flavor will do in a pinch.

3. If you were to go on a deserted island for 10 years, and you could take 1 person and 3 items, what would you take?
I think I've answered this somewhere else. I'd take Sally Struthers. That way I could crack her across the head the first time she whined about being hungry and then feed myself for the rest of my stay. I mean, have you seen her recently? I want my baby back, baby back, baby back ribs!

For items I'd take a damn fine survival rifle complete with shitloads of ammo. Item two would be a damn fine survival knife. Item three would be a really large pot. I can boil water to make it potable, cook things easily, sterilize my knife for amputations when necessary...the possibilities are endless. And Struthers is probably a bit stringy - she'd be better as stew than she would as chops.

4. WhatÂ’s your favorite food?
See question 3a. Haha, just kidding. It's pizza. With peppers, onions, mushrooms, sausage, pepperoni, and canadian bacon. And extra cheese, but that goes without saying.

5. WhoÂ’s your favorite band?
Overall, probably either Led Zeppelin or the Melody Makers (Bob Marley). Tragically Hip are pretty high up there too.

6. WhoÂ’s your favorite person?
Me. You gotta be happy with you before you're any good to anybody else.

7. How old are you?
Thirty four? Thirty five? No, can't be thirty five yet, I'd remember that. I'll go with thirty four. I'll do the math if you make me but it'll cost you a dollar. Each.

8. Where do you live?
Atlanta, Jawjah

9. WhatÂ’s your favorite type of Ice Cream?
Whichever one has the best chance of putting me into a chocolate induced coma.

10. WhatÂ’s your favorite family tradition?
Going to the Atebellum plantation at Stone Mountain Park for picnics, swashbuckling, football and tag.

11. Do you have a job? If so where?
Damn well better at almost thirty-five with 3 kids. I'm an analyst for a company that makes software distribution systems.

12. WhatÂ’s your dream car?
One that's solid state electronics and runs off a fuel cell. Don't forget the lifetime bumper to bumper warranty.

Play along. Answer here in the comments or trackback a post to Mookie.

1 That is soooo cool, Tragically Hip! I didn't think anyone south of the border even new about them. One of my favorites as well.

2 "swashbuckling"?

3 Oh, yeah - we do lot's of swashbuckling. Given that it's easier to whack Daddy with a stick than it it to catch a football, it's probably their preferred activity during those outings.

4 I'm a Hip fan from way back. Up in Buffalo they're fairly popular. Down here in Hotlanta nobody has heard of them except for the 2 or 3 hundred transplants who see them at the Roxy each year.

5 Oooh! Anything you like has to be good. Must. Check out the Tragically Hip. Any suggestions?

6 Start with Trouble at the Henhouse then move to Road Apples. Alternately you could go for the Best Of album but you'll miss a lot of their quirky weirdness if you do.
