\nB – Born on what day of the week?<\/b> Wednesday
\nC – Chore you hate?<\/b> Dishes right *before* I start on ’em.
\nD – Disney character?<\/b> Rafiki from Lion King (“Why’d you hit me?” “Doesn’t matter, it’s in the past!”<\/i>)
\nE – Essential makeup item(s)?<\/b> A woman who wants to put it on. ‘Cept for my Braveheart Hallowe’en makeup, that kicked ASS.
\nF – Favorite actor?<\/b> Jeanine Garafalo: she could read from the phone book and I’d watch. The Cusacks sibs and Walken triple-tie for second.
\nG – Gold or silver?<\/b> Gold. I like the look of silver, but prefer the weight of gold.
\nH – Hometown?<\/b> Chilliwack. Gee-cri…
\nI – Instruments you play?<\/b> Ukulele (no, really), and an assortment of digital audio apps. I call ’em “Burntables.”
\nJ – Jumped off a plane?<\/b> Not one that was moving at the time.
\nK – Kids?<\/b> Yep. One. Kickass!
\nL – Last dental appointment?<\/b> All four “difficult access” wisdom teeth. Knocked me out for it. Nothing interesting since (that was a year ago).
\nM – Make-up brand?<\/b> Uh….
\nN – Number of people you’ve slept with?<\/b> Um, 13, I think.
\nO – Overnight hospital stays?<\/b> About three (hernia as a wee one, mono at 9, birth of Ripley)
\nP – Phobia?<\/b> A new one: those giant fucking spider crab things they’re finding in Iraq. I mean, JESUS!
\nQ – Quote you like?<\/b> The entire spoken word piece “Religion<\/a>” by Lord Buckley<\/a>. That, and “You can’t go… all the plants are gonna die!” by Bill Murray. I was going to say: “Writing about art is like dancing about architecture,” by Steve Martin but then I couldn’t remember how to spell architecture, choked, and deleted it.
\nR – Religious affiliation?<\/b> I’m no affiliate. Maybe a repeater station.
\nS – Siblings?<\/b> One Half-Bro. I’ve got a whole freakin’ *shrub* of steps.
\nT – Type of music?<\/b> A lot of stuff I like, and a lot I don’t. Try me. Gotta be able to move to it, at least in my head.
\nU – Understand college physics?<\/b> Are they different from physics elsewhere?
\nV – Vegetable you refuse to eat?<\/b> Raw onions.
\nW – Worst food?<\/b> Liver. Uni (sea urchin naughty bits in the alleged form of sushi).
\nX – X-rays you’ve had?<\/b> Wrap-around lower jaw (to find that – oh JOY – all four wisdom teeth were 900<\/sup> impacted.)
\nY – Yummy food you make?<\/b> French toast & steak (no, not at the same time)
\nZ – Zodiac Sign?<\/b> Aquarian. Like most of my friends, go fig.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
