Please feel free to do these on your own sites, and leave a link in the comments. If you want to just throw it in the comments that is cool too. ROCK!
1. You are about to take the needle in the arm ending your life for all your crimes. You get to order your last meal. What is included in your last meal?
Lasagna. I would want three different types so that I can have three pieces of it. I want a meat lovers lasagna with beef, and Italian sausage. I want cheese lasagna with as many types of cheese as will fit in between those flat noodles. Finally, I want a veggie lasagna with broccoli. It can have as many other veggies as the cook wants to put in. All I require is broccoli. And maybe some red wine and a Caesar salad. That is about all I need. I would definitely have to loosen my belt for the execution.
2. You can do all the financial planning you want, but some expense will come up that you didn’t plan for and it sucks. What was your most recent unplanned expenditure?
I have two actually and frankly, they both sucked. A couple months ago my vacuum cleaner got so clogged with clippings from my relatively new carpet that I had to throw it away. I will never buy any product by Eureka again.
Yesterday, the plastic casing on my cell phone cracked. I had to buy a new phone and re-up my deal for another two years. On top of that, pretty much all the phones that were any good had built in cameras. I now have a camera phone. I don’t want a camera on my phone. I am sure I am paying for it. Cell phone companies are worse than the mafia.
3. If you could have any famous person “tragically” die in a freak bathroom related incident, who would it be and why?
I would definitely have Corey Feldman die on the toilet with a needle hanging off of his arm. I remember last year when John Ritter became the greatest actor in the history of acting with revisionist activities following his death. I would like to see what they come up with for the honorable Mr. Feldman.
The media would be talking about The Lost Boys, The Goonies and The Burbs as if they were Citizen Kane, Forrest Gump and Shawshank.
4. If you could be a fly on the wall in any room in the world at any time, which room would it be and why?
I know a lot of people will say the oval office or something related to politics, but I am going to have to go with one of my favorite band’s practice spaces. I am going to say, that I want to be in Death Cab’s practice space or maybe the room where Ben Gibbard writes songs. One of the two.
5. Finally, what is your favorite: number, color, and season of the year?
13, Blue and Autumn

So, while the major media continues to plot LeBron’s departure from Cleveland, there is a sane voice out there letting everyone know how unlikely the most outlandish scenarios truly are. - Top Gun 2???!?!?!??!?!? Wednesday, 23 July 2008, 5:50 am

I once bet a guy in college that I could watch a George Carlin special on HBO without laughing. I did it, but it wasn’t at all easy. There is going to be a void left by Carlin dying. - Accepted Behaviors Tend to Increase Thursday, 19 June 2008, 12:15 pm
If you become too accepting of a condition that you really don’t want to encourage, you might just end up with unintended consequences.
1. I would have Burger Sampler. America’s finest burgers. Big Nick’s in NYC, some In ‘n’ Out (those are good burgers, Walter) from LA, some ostrich burger from Fudrucker’s. Mmmm. Burger…
2. Probably my brakes. That wasn’t fun.
3. Roger Clemens. Any time you ask me who I’d like some bad things to happen to, this is going to be the answer.
4. Hmm. I’ll go with Osama bin Laden’s location a week from now. And then I can fuck him up and collect the reward.
5. 206, red, spring
206. Is that your apartment number or the combination to the lock on your luggage? Just curious.
1.I am thinking I would research something that fights the effect of whatever they shoot you up with, if that didn’t work I am thinking an assortment of Taco Bell, Stouffers Mac & Cheese, and some really good Chicken Parmesan.
2. My liver transplan totally drained my check book yesterday!
3. Richard Simmons would be really funny if he dided on the pot after a cocaine fueled orgy with a bunch of hot skanks in Vegas. It would rule if after all the gay stuff, he turned out to be a Wilt Chamberlin-eque Man Whore!!!
4. Cleveland Browns Pressbox, it would rule to know the play before it happened. and find out who is really effing up on Sunday

Don’t ask him about 206! It is a REALLY involved answer.
1) My last meal would be a hamburger. With fries. Probably from my favorite local spot here, Moontime. (www.wedonthaveone.com)
2) The corporation turned on my check engine light. Not a huge expense, but I got the Vac-u-suk and that set me back $150.
3) Hmmm. Freak bathroom incident. I have a former boss who I wouldn’t mind that happening to.
4) Fly on the wall. Ah. Julius Caesar’s assassination. The roman’s didn’t have fly swatters and that was a world changing event. So that’d be cool.
5) 6, Blue, Autumn
206 is just an excellent arbitrarily large number. The story of how I came to revere it as such is very involved (not to mention boring and disappointing).
WOOOOHOOOO! Tis a joyous day in Cavs land. I never thought I’d be so happy to get…Drew Gooden. And Varejao!!!
Ok, sorry, but I just refuse to post on topic. Get on the ball here Craig, post something!
1. Just have the chef at L’Espalier cook whatever he wants. My best meals are always surprises. Lotsa wine, too, so I can get good and lickered up for my last words.
2. I’ve just learned that we’re buying a portable DVD player for the car. Hrmph. If you think that’s a discretionary purchase, YOU drive all around Nova Scotia with my kids and no movies. (She Who Must Be Obeyed and I have not yet resolved whether buy-and-return-after-trip is beneath us.)
3. Celine Dion sucked ass-first out the toilet on a 747 and ejected at 39,000 feet over a landfill in New Jersey.
4. The last planning meeting before the D-Day invasion.
5. 2, blue, summer.
1. Lots and lots of cheese.
2. $100 bucks in book fines.
3. Britney Spears, i’m not very fond of sluts.
4. The room i’m getting the needle in, while getting the needle. cant be in two places at once, so hopefully i’ll just remain the fly.
