    Planning a trip to the NC mountains for the 4th of July.

    Do you workout at a gym?

    No. I don't workout at all.

    Two. Early Sept. to Seattle. Late Sept. up to your neck of the woods, Vancouver, BC.

    Where's somewhere tropical you'd like to visit?

    Have you ever been to Russia?

    No and with what it happening right now (really, nuke threats) I have no intention of ever going.

    Are concert prices getting insane to others than just me? We just got an amazing 3 day festival scheduled for Halloween weekend that is $279 for the three days. Day 1 Santana is headlining, day 2 is Tool and Primus as the headliners. Day 3 is Linkin Park, Rob Zombie and Deftones as the main bands.

    Yes, can't stand concert prices. Like at the Gorge, going to see Foos, there is camping, but I think they require you to camp 2 nights, (they did for Petty) which is insane because camping 2 nights costs as much as a hotel room for one night.

    Hobbes needs to swing by to say 'hi' when he's up here.

    Are you a hotel snob or do you just care if it's clean enough to sleep there?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    It depends. If I am not going to be in the room except to sleep I'm not picky with the cleanliness the main thing I want. If I am going somewhere good and forking out more money I can get snobby.

    Have you ever checked out of a hotel early due to their general suckiness?

    Yes. I once left a hotel in Vancouver without even staying the night. When we got up to the room it looked terrible, the bed was uncomfortable, they hadn't provided any cooking utensils even though it was a suite with a kitchen, and it was horribly noisy as it was right beside a hospital - sirens galore! We took a look around, called a few other hotels and found one with availability, walked back down to the desk and told them we were leaving and why, and that they had better not charge us anything, and off we went. )We ended up finding a great hotel, by the way.)

    Can you deal with situations of conflict without losing your cool?

    Most of the time yes. IIf I'm being outright disrespected, watch the fuck out!

    Do you like to play carnival midway games?

    No, I only go for the mini donuts.

    Do you like to go on carnival rides or are you of the vomiting persuasion?

    Love the rides the more flips spins and speed the better.
    Have ever been to Knotts Berry Farm?

    I have been told I was taken as a very little kid but I have no memory so who knows, my parents could be lying to placate me.

    Have you been to both the original Disneyland and the imposter Disney World?

    Disneyland yes since I was a small child. We take the kids every 3 or 4 years for a week. Spacing so far apart is intentional. I want those trips super special to them as they were to me. No to the imposter. And Knotts Berry farm rocked back in the day. Growing up we always did a couple days in Disneyland, 1 at Knotts and 1 at Universal Studio.

    What was your favorite amusement park ride growing up?

    If I don't eat, then I can't vomit right? Donuts after the rides!

    What's your favorite ride?

    Chocolate covered Twinkies which used to be known as chocodiles.

    Do you have a food product from another area you have to get and bring home when visiting? When on the East coast I have to bring back tasty cakes as an example.

    When I travel home to Florida, I have to bring back Naviera coffee. So good!

    How much does a vowel cost on Wheel of Fortune?

    Not a clue. Too much, I'm guessing.

    Is your home town prone to any natural disasters? (tsunami, earth quake, hurricane, etc.?)

    Haboobs and severe monsoons. Otherwise does extreme heat count?

    Do you embrace your own version of madness?
