Nope. Not mad - but not gay either. (pretty funny actually)

Two reasons:
1) I haven't decided what I want up there to represent me.
2) I haven't figured out how either, but #1 before #2.

Yup. It took about 26 years to master it, but I think I have it now.

Would you date an older woman? :wink: :D Oh wait, am I older? I don't know how old you are. Man, am I confused!

Seriously:

What did you do when you worked for the Mouse?

Do you bite your nails or some other bad habit?

You have traveled extensively, how do you find the time?

Are you a leftie or a rightie?

What do you do when you are bored?

Can you type or do you hunt and peck?

Do you screen your calls or just answer the phone?

Do you decorate your place for the holidays?

Dishwasher or hand wash and dry?

I'll think of more later :D

Yes. Age is no issue, compatibility is.

Seriously:

What did you do when you worked for the Mouse?
I was a dockside stocker in Disney's MGM Studios. I worked in the second busiest quick-service food location on property - Sunset Market Ranch, which is on Sunset Boulevard down just before the Tower of Terror and Rockin' Roller Coaster. They also ran a few other locations by Echo lake - Gerties the Dinosaur, the Boat, and a few others. I was responsible for stocking all of the remote locations. It was the greatest job, because I was my own boss and could interact with the guests whenever. It's also how I met my, now, ex-girlfriend, who also worked there.

Do you bite your nails or some other bad habit?
Probably, but I'm not aware of it. I don't bite my nails. I used to eat when I was tired or nervous, but I've since stopped that.

You have traveled extensively, how do you find the time?
Most of the vacations I've been on haven't been leisure "kick your feet back" vacations. I try to do a lot, and see everything that I can that interests me in a reasonable amount of time. I also look for deals on flights. The best part? I don't just do the tourist stuff. I walk through neighborhoods and experience the life that I can't get from Frommers.

Are you a leftie or a rightie?
Rightie

What do you do when you are bored?
Watch TV (movie, TV, sports - there's always a game on somewhere), Read, Go to the boathouse (there's always something to fix there), call friends, be bored...

Can you type or do you hunt and peck?
type - thanks Mr. Karpceck (HS computer teacher)

Do you screen your calls or just answer the phone?
It depends on the situation that I'm in at the time the call comes through.

Do you decorate your place for the holidays?
To an extent, but I don't go crazy. And by holidays - I mean Christmas. Not for Flag Day, Halloween, or any other holiday.

Dishwasher or hand wash and dry?
dishwasher if available. hand wash otherwise

1. Do you hit on girls, or do you get hit on?
Now that I'm newly single, I'm doing some of the hitting on. Although, not having done so for over 6 years - I'm out of practice.

2. Would you ever date someone you met in a bar?
That depends. I met someone in the subway last week, and I'm interested in dating her. It's not where you meet them, it's what they're like that matters.

3. Do you date often?
Not as much as I would like, but I think this will remedy itself when I move to New York. You can't really date well when you have to catch a train to Philly every night.

4. Do you hold grudges?
Not often, but there is this kid from college who I still have a hard time forgiving for what he did to my friend. I'm human.

5. Do you lie?
Actually, Yes. My friend and I used to see who could tell the most convincing lie in college. We always told the person the truth eventually, but everyone knew that we did this. We tied. Otherwise, not really.

6. Do you dance, or do you sway side to side uncomfortably like most men? :lol:
I am a white male - I don't dance well at all, however, my ex never seemed to mind it. So I guess I can hold my own.

7. Are you a free spirit?
I think so.

8. Spontaneous or scheduled?
Definitely spontaneous. I hate schedules. They're too rigid.

9. Are you truly happy, if not what do you think you are missing?
Right now. No. Truthfully, I am still dealing with being single. I feel lonely sometimes, but after 6 years that's bound to happen. I'm also looking for a new job, within the same industry. ONce I get my apartment, a new job, and finally come to gripps with this new life, Yes - I'll be happy. (Heavy question but a good one. I also don't back down from that which I perceive to be important.)

10. Are you close with your family?[/quote]
Incredibly.

1. When did you first realize that you were addicted to scrapple?
Everytime I go to a Philadelphia area diner.

2. Have you ever seen any dead bodies floating on the Schuylkill?
Yes. Once. In High School, we were rowing and coach said that it was a log. What log spins in circles with the current leaving the hair to swirl around. The police later took the body out on our boathouse dock.

3. Do you hang out on BN to get JB information or just to pick up chicks?
All of the above? :wink:

4. How many dictionaries do you own?
Work gave me one last year as a measure to improve our "core value" of Intellectual Curiosity

5. What is the meaning of life?
Have fun, live your dreams, and be the best person you can be. Everything else is not up to you.

Think of some more questions, friends. Whether they be serious or comical, comical or serious, or serious or comical and I will return after I carry out my nightly sentence of riding Amtrak until I go crazy.

Now a message from our sponsors.

Whatever's available.

I am 27 1/2 (5/2/78 )

Pick my nose? I'm not a NYC Cab driver. Fart? Well a gentleman never tells, but I'll say that if I have to, never in the company of women, or anyone for that matter.
