Tagged in a good way
Whoa, this is a new thing for me, I’ve been tagged by my man Lifton. (Edit: To my embarrassment, I see I missed one last month. Sorry, man.) And I say, why pass up a chance to blab about myself? To pass it on, I hereby tag Raoul, Frantix, Sashe, and Danielle. Maybe this will inspire those slackers to get back to posting.
And now on to the Q and A.
FOODOLOGY
Q. What is your salad dressing of choice?
A. Bleu cheese
Q. What is your favorite fast food restaurant?
A. National? Chipotle. Local? Boca Grande. One might sense a theme.
Q. What is your favorite sit-down restaurant?
A. Of all time, the Galaxy Cafe in Columbus, Ohio. Sadly defunct.
Q. On average, what size tip do you leave at a restaurant?
A. 20% on small checks, 16% minimum on large checks.
Q. What food could you eat every day for two weeks and not get sick off of?
A. I actually eat the same Kashi cereal every morning, but breakfast is a special circumstance. Chocolate for when I'm wide awake.
Q. What is your favorite type of gum?
A. My parents’ deep hatred of gum has taken hold in me as an adult, alas.
TECHNOLOGY
Q. What is your wallpaper on your computer?
A. Right now, a Japanese postcard. Alternates with a still from X2 and Neil Armstrong on the moon.
Q. How many televisions are in your house?
A. One. Don’t despair, Raoul, someday there might be two!
BIOLOGY
Q. What’s your best feature?
A. Aw, I don’t know. It sure ain’t humility.
Q. Have you ever had anything removed from your body?
A. Wisdom teeth, the occasional vial of the red stuff.
Q. Which of your five senses do you think is keenest?
A. Taste, not to be confused with the abstract version thereof.
Q. When was the last time you had a cavity?
A. God, what a tragedy. My first and only one was in 2004. I am mildly convinced that the dentist scammed me. A thing about myself I was so proud of, crushed like a stale cornflake.
Q. What is the heaviest item you lifted last?
A. My suitcase, coming back from San Francisco on Tuesday. Metaphorically, the burden of being one of the two competent people at work.
Q. Have you ever been knocked unconscious?
A. I almost fainted once. And they knocked me out to remove the aforementioned wisdom teeth, thank the gods.

A. Good question. There are some shades of blue that make my eyes look even bluer.
Q. Have you ever swallowed a non-food item by mistake?
A. Oh man, when I was a kid I once collected a single dime for Unicef at Halloween, and I was holding the box above my head, shaking it, when it dropped down my throat. Sorry, Unicef.
