Bek, do you think that picture is from when he got roughed up by the NYPD? no, but I think a fish slap calmmed him.
Kenny Rogers. Past his prime? yeah... probably.
You've got 17 and the dealer's showing a 9. Hit or stay? hit it or quit it!
Do you have an opinion on Canada Geese? yes! I have an opinion on these geese that infiltrate my school's campus every spring... they suck! They will chase you hissing at you and they sh!t EVERYWHERE.
just look at the little booger.... he wants to eat your face off.
What was the best SNL cast?
Would you rather go see the Northern Lights or the Great Barrier Reef?
Are you still friends with anybody you went to elementary school with? Yeah I have a friend I have been buddies with since 3rd grade. We don't get to see each other much but we usually get together once or twice a year for a dinner date. Other than that my longest running friendship is my friend Tara and we have been kicking it since middle school. I see that whore like three or four times a week.
Who was your favorite teacher in high school and why? Def my Biology teacher I had when I was a freshman. He was this awesomely tall dude with a fake eye and he was so funny! I called him cyclops, he loved it.
One time he was teaching us about photosynthesis and he was drawing on the board (quite the artist as well) and he drew a plant and some trees and the sun holding something in each "hand". This guy piped up with, "Hey Coach D, what is going on with the sun?" To which he very seriously replied: "Why, that's the sun giving you two scoops of raisins!" lol I loved that guy so much I just kept taking his classes. I ended up taking every class he taught during my HS career. He is a principal at a different school now and I emailed him a couple of years ago just to say thanks for making my HS science experience very special.

What was your favorite movie when you were a kid? god there are so many that I loved but I was (and still am;)) a really big fan of Charlotte's Web, Mary Poppins, and Hook
Who did you have a crush on in the 6th grade? his name was Matt Shaver and by the time I was in 7th grade I hated his guts... ohhhh middle school.
What commercial (or series of commercials) do you really love? hate? love:
hate:
Which is cooler, ninjas or pirates? PIRATES!!!!!!!!
Hilarious! I can't listen to it because I'm at work, and I'd rather my officemate not think I'm some kind of weirdo, but if that's the one that goes "You don't have to be alone tonight . . . Pick up the phone" those used to get stuck in my head all the time.
what is your ideal (non-festival) dream vacation spot? have you ever taken a trip on Amtrak? what foreign language(s) if any have you studied? do you believe in reincarnation? telepathy? what is your favorite cereal?
Post by ☮ superbek ☮ on Mar 26, 2010 12:34:50 GMT -5
What's your favorite scent? I love Burberry and cool water as far as perfumes go. I also love the smell of apples, fresh cut grass, and the goody good that is in the drawer right beside me... I just hope no one else can smell it.
Do you like hardwood? huh huh.... you said "hard wood" yes but carpet is preferred (huh huh.... carpet)
How do you feel about the color gray? I feel that gray is not a color but actually the absence of color. My favorite days are days that are bright outside, the grass and green, the sky is blue but there are gray clouds hovering that make everything look so surreal. just beautiful.
What album always makes you feel better on a bad day? Kid A, not a happy album but I relate to that album and it takes me places.
What album gets you in the mood? Portishead - Self Titled (turns me on just THINKING about it!)
What album reminds you of summer? Eat a Peach
Are there flowers blooming on your street? YES!!!
What do you think the age limits are in the realm of relationships? I believe love shows no gender/age/color, etc... I think different people are in different stages of their life at different times and those times can all intersect.
What's your favorite/least favorite thing about Knoxville? Fav: East TN is where I was born and raised, I love it here and I often cannot imagine living happily anywhere else but here. but what do I know? I have never left...
Least fav: we are in a state of permanent road construction because we keep getting bigger... and bigger... and BIGGER.
Would you rather have a cake or a pie? ohhh.... let me eat cake!
How do you feel about your BMOTM run so far? I like it. It's been fun... honestly I am a little surprised that I haven't been asked anything embarassing, humiliating, or anything like that... and no that is not a recommendation.
Does your answer change if he's kdogg & she's 21? yeah, you're a perv. lol, wonder where you been at lately... now I know.
what is your ideal (non-festival) dream vacation spot? well a cross country road trip was ideal and that was SUPPOSED to be what I did this summer but that got canned so I am going to vegas instead and I'm alright with that. However, I really want to go to Borneo and Easter Island.
have you ever taken a trip on Amtrak? nope.... I don't even know wher ethe nearest Amtrak station is, Nashville maybe?
what foreign language(s) if any have you studied? espanol
do you believe in reincarnation? telepathy? I think reincarnation is possible but not probable. We see that the earth is made up of recycable goods ourselves included but reincarnation is a step far... telepathy is even less likely. I think it is something we wish to be true and therefore will believe it but really it is nothing more than science fiction.
what is your favorite cereal? Banana Nut Crunch
NBF: PICK UP THE PHOOOONNNNEEEE!!!! EAP: feel free to hang around here for the next week or so. I don't think ND cares too much for me which means he has been absent from the thread throughout this month.
Does your answer change if he's kdogg & she's 21? yeah, you're a perv. lol, wonder where you been at lately... now I know.
I haven't been there yet - notice there's still a question mark after "cradle robber" at this point - but (since I should phrase this in the form of a question) would you believe I've got myself a date tonight with a girl eight years my junior?
I've actually picked up a second job delivering pizza a couple weeks ago, which is why I've been around at odd hours lately. I know you've been in this line of work yourself, so here's a related line of questioning:
For whom did you deliver pizza? How long did you do it? Best/worst delivery tales? What's the gender breakdown on the nudity you were exposed to? What kind of car do you drive? Ever get pulled over and/or get into an accident on duty? What's on your favorite pizza? Can we even know anything about pizza, not hailing from New York?
I have signed up to be in a "basket exchange" next week. The email says to put together a basket of "stuff/goodies" and be creative. What should I put in my basket?
I also signed up to bring salad dressing that day for our salad and sandwich bar pot luck. So far, I'm the only person who has signed up for salad dressing. What kind of salad dressing(s) should I bring?
I am planning on going to see a movie this weekend with a girl from work. It is supposed to be a girlie movie that boys would not want to go see. What movie should we see?
Post by ☮ superbek ☮ on Mar 27, 2010 14:01:01 GMT -5
For whom did you deliver pizza? Domino's Pizza
How long did you do it? I started as a driver but after a year I ran shifts three days a week and delivered for two. This went on for 6.5 years.
Best/worst delivery tales? WORST: Someone had to go to a hotel one time to redeliver a pizza the customer said was burnt (liar, liar pants on fire). It was another dude's delivery but he was like, "nah, I'm going home, you take it!" Asshole. So I drive out to the hotel (rm #219)and this dude comes to the door lookin' like kid rock wearing nothing but boxer briefs and his long greasy blonde hair. I swap pizzas with him and as I am walking down the stairs I open the box only to find two pieces of crusts.... that MF'er ate the entire pizza and just ripped us for a free one, me especially since it was my gas and time he wasted. I get down to my car and he comes back out of his room, leans over the balcony and flips his flaxen hair over his shoulder and says to me, "hey you wanna come back when you get off from work?" total. fncking. creep.
BEST: There is not really a "best" story of the top of my head but I did thoroughly enjoy driving around smokin' with the windows down and sun specs on... just jammin' on. This time of year especially makes me miss that. But I do NOT miss the cornmeal in my bra and underwear. Little known fact about me: I can make a large hand tossed pepperoni pizza in 28 seconds... not too bad. I hate to say it but pizza sauce will always run through my veins. What's the gender breakdown on the nudity you were exposed to? well, let's just say that a lot more men than women answer their door shirtless... especially in the south.
What kind of car do you drive? 2001 Honda Civic EX
Ever get pulled over and/or get into an accident on duty? Never pulled over, but I had cops call in on me a couple of times, they usually cut us a break because we gave them deals... further proof of the extent of the corruptness of our law system. I did sort of have a couple of accidents. One time it was raining and I started sliding and slid of the road and knicked this concrete pillar. I got out and examined the damage and did a happy rain dance, got in my car and continued on my way. On the very next deliver I started sliding and went off this embankment but the had just cut down a bunch of brush but not cleaned it up yet... it acted as a safety net. I had to get my car towed out but both myself and the car drove away 100% unharmed.
What's on your favorite pizza? My dream pizza: pesto black olives feta mozzarella mushrooms red onions chicken jalapenos spinach
Can we even know anything about pizza, not hailing from New York? Idk but I do not know Papa Murphy's is where it's at!
I have signed up to be in a "basket exchange" next week. The email says to put together a basket of "stuff/goodies" and be creative. What should I put in my basket? I need more info... what is your designated budget and this is springtime themed I assume?
I also signed up to bring salad dressing that day for our salad and sandwich bar pot luck. So far, I'm the only person who has signed up for salad dressing. What kind of salad dressing(s) should I bring? Raspberry Walnut Vinagarette 1/2 cup raspberry jam 1/3 cup vegetable oil 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 3/4 cup chopped walnuts In a saucepan heat raspberry jam over low heat about 3 to 5 minutes, or until thinned. Blend in oil and white wine vinegar. Stir in chopped walnuts. Makes about 1 1/2 cups. Really easy and delicious!
I am planning on going to see a movie this weekend with a girl from work. It is supposed to be a girlie movie that boys would not want to go see. What movie should we see? well I think I am gonna throw in the towel and go see Alice in Wonderland with one of my girlfriends... maybe you could see that if you haven't already?
I have signed up to be in a "basket exchange" next week. The email says to put together a basket of "stuff/goodies" and be creative. What should I put in my basket? I need more info... what is your designated budget and this is springtime themed I assume?
Around $20. Doesn't have to be springtime themed. Can be anything really.

Honey... whaddya do for money?
Tell me, are you a badfish too?
What is love?
Who sucked out the feeling?
I did too many druqs... did you do too many druqs?
If you think like Thomas Edison, could you invent a world for me?
Why are the ocean levels rising up?
Who do you wanna be: Billy Idol or Kool Mo Dee?
Do you remember lying in bed with your covers pulled up over your head, radio playin' so no once could see?
What if you rock around the clock?
Why can't I be you?
How did the cat get so fat?
Are you truly, deeply cynical?
If you're so special, why aren't you dead?
When they kick out your front door, how you gonna come: with your hands on your head or on the trigger of your gun?
If you can't afford a broken nose, how can you afford to fight?
Where the hell is Bill?
What if God's not there?
Will you take off your dress and send it to me?

Shouldn't you have got a couple piercings and decided maybe that you were gay?

Do you know what it's like to fall on the floor and cry your guts out til you got no more?

Honey... whaddya do for money? I work for a company that is contracted through a major soda company. We own and manage a website that sells all of their products such as menu boards, clocks, tumblers, t-shirts, coolers, in store marketing materials, etc. I provide customer service and technical support for the shoppers and I am also the support system for the suppliers and producers of these items.
I also go to school part time where I am majoring in web design. might finish....eventually.
Tell me, are you a badfish too? I was but I drowned my big blue whale in Dec. whe I kicked the nicotine.
I did too many druqs... did you do too many druqs? not yet
If you think like Thomas Edison, could you invent a world for me? I don't so I won't.
Why are the ocean levels rising up? Helllllloooooo.... the ice caps are melting.
Who do you wanna be: Billy Idol or Kool Mo Dee? tough choice, but I reckon I better go with that thar Idol feller.
Do you remember lying in bed with your covers pulled up over your head, radio playin' so no once could see? No, I do not remember.... but just because I don't remember it doesn't mean it did not happen.
What if you rock around the clock? well I always rock but since time is an invention.... to hell with the clock.
Why can't I be you? Primarily because you are missing the anatomy... you also need that wow factor that I was born with. yep, yep.
How did the cat get so fat? Who the fuck am I to say? What the fuck is really going on?
Are you truly, deeply cynical? Perhaps. I am too trusting but I can be bitter at times... not so much a pessimist and not really an optimist. (for me the glass isn't half full or empty it is simply half a glass)
If you're so special, why aren't you dead? well I know that I am special, you know that I am special, but other people haven't quite figured it out yet. Don't worry I will die soon enough once they catch on.
When they kick out your front door, how you gonna come: with your hands on your head or on the trigger of your gun? There are no guns in my house so I guess I will only have one option... to curl up in a ball in my closet.
If you can't afford a broken nose, how can you afford to fight? n/a since I'm a lover, not a fighter.
Where the hell is Bill? Idk, I already found Waldo... I don't have time to search for Bill too!
What if God's not there? Who is this "God" you speak of? ???
Will you take off your dress and send it to me? If you want it that badly, yes I will. But I am keeping my panties, dammit. and one more stipulation... no playing dress up. ;D
How'm I supposed to know that you're high if you won't let me touch you? ooooh, that's a sexy little line, isn't it? You can touch me if you want to, especially if it proves a point.
Shouldn't you have got a couple piercings and decided maybe that you were gay? maybe I did.
Who you callin' Ann Coulter? you, baby.
Do you know what it's like to fall on the floor and cry your guts out til you got no more? yeah when I was young and emotional... now I got the wall to steady myself on
Every night turns out to be a little more like Bukowski, and yeah I know he's a pretty good read, but... God, who would want to be such an jerkstore? Awww... he's not a jerkstore, he's just German. “Sometimes you just have to pee in the sink.”
What's so funny 'bout peace, love & understanding? This is funny, that is funny, everything is funny... life is funny. I think we have a tendancy to take ourselves too seriously and that's funny, too.
Where do we go from here? onward and upward
With all your power, what would you do? Well we cannot know ourselves or what we'd really do.
What is love? There are varying degrees of love and love can occur between two or more individuals. It bonds them and connects them in a unified link of trust, intimacy, friendship, and interdependence. It enhances the relationship and comforts the soul. Love should be experienced and not just felt... and apparently it is all you need, love that is. ♥

I don't believe you have yet been asked... met anyone famous? I have discussed this on this board in other places and in this thread but to recap: I met Krist Novaselic at an Eyes Adrift show in 2002. I don't have a pic of that but I'm gonna post a link to Krist's blog instead: blogs.seattleweekly.com/reverb/krist_novoselic/
and here is roo '06 gang with Paul Scheer and another comedian whose name escapes me...
roo '07 we danced with Nick Kroll and Aziz Ansari at Hot Chip:
2008 I met Bob Duke, TN Senate hopeful when I went down to the Belmont Debate.
that is about the extent of that...
How was your weekend? short and sweet. I did some homework, got drunk, played some spades with my family, and bought my Neil Young tickets (the highlight of my next eight weeks).
Are you looking forward to anything this week? yeah, my paid day off on Friday
Do you know what you're having for dinner tonight? chicken spaghetti!
Do you want to go to D's Diner and if so, what is your favorite dish at D's? yes I wanna go! I hear D's got the best damn breakfast burrito anywhere, anytime!
