    Death of Me in the Winter

    Very chilly here in Pennsylvania (mid 40's F) but I love the weather this time of year. A bite in the air and the smell of people starting burn their fireplaces along with the smell of the turning foliage. But, in what has been predictable form for 2009, it's going to be spoiled by rain.

    Most Hated Household Chore

    I'd have to say laundry - more specifically folding. The actual sorting, loading, unloading etc isn't too bad because you get a 60 minute break for every 5 minutes of work. But f me in the a if I'm going to hurry to fold 2-3 baskets full of clean clothes (including a few bazillion socks)...

    Spooky, eerie and haunted.

    Derek Acorah. He got his first big break as a medium on the UK show "Most Haunted" and eventually did a couple spin off shows including the god-awful one you're referring to. He's a pisser - complete fake but at least entertaining. During season 6 of Most Haunted they were visiting Bodmin...

    Spooky, eerie and haunted.

    My family has a few stories of paranormal encounters - I'm as skeptical as anyone but what tends to sell it a little more is the fact that most of the sightings were by cousins who were to young at the time to have any concept of what they were describing. For example, my wife's cousin's son...

    Agree to disagree

    Politics is the one that gets me - So many people are absolute wack jobs about it. You're not a politician, you're not going to change anyone's mind with your sheepish rhetoric, and when it all boils down all you can do it vote and do what you think is right. So just pour yourself a nice...

    Buying a Car

    Where are you located? A couple options - and this is speaking from my own experiences in the US: Many car companies offer certified used programs where the cars are given a very thorough going-over inspection and repair-wise, the interior reconditioned, and they often come with a worthwhile...

    Instant Experts

    Some things are just intuitive for some people. There's nothing you can do but keep working. I worked with a girl who, after about 5 years out of college had reached a management level in accounting, was rated in the top 3 for her rank, and more or less doubled her entry level salary. She was...

    Lack of Closeness

    What you had was essentialy 3 sub-groups all of whom had interdependencies and links: *********Spoiler Alert********* Ashe/Basch: - Fallen Dalmascan elite looking for a way to restore their kingdom. - Needed to work in relative anonymity amongst the general populace given the belief that...

    Was I the only one who didn't understand the ending?

    I don't think he was hiding his identity - given those who assumed power in Archadia and Dalmasca respectively, after Vayne's defeat, his name would have been cleared immediately.

    Are you a hoarder or a neat freak?

    Not a neat freak but I really do enjoy having the house clean when it's finally time to relax. We'll usually try to clean on Thursday nights so that when Friday and the weekend roll around we don't have to deal with it.

    Forced to do things

    My father tried to instill the understanding that I had to work for a living at a very young age. I was more or less financially independant from age 12-13 on. I would help him or do myself all of the yardwork and other chores around the house and he would pay me by the hour. Typically, my...

    Cost of living

    When I came out of college and was on my own, the monthly ledger looked like this (this was in Austin, TX - a wonderful, wonderful city): Rent - $800 (1 BR, 750 sq ft apt, no utilities) Utilities - $115 (gas, electric, water) Cable/Interwebs - $75 Cell - $50 Car - $300 Car Ins - $120 Student...

    I stay up late and I don't do anything productive.

    I found that job stress fixed that problem for me pretty quickly. I used to stay up until 2 routinely - I had grown accustomed to it in college, usually having an 8AM class, yet always staying up. But, once I got through the noob phase and the job actually started to carry expectations, heavy...

    Drinking & Hangovers

    I typically try not to get to bombed because out of everything - my speech is the first thing to go and it's very embarassing. So, if I want to be interactive and social, I'll tone it down (unless it's obvious that everyone else is hammered). Drink water and take a B vitamin complex and your...

    Nintendo Entire Zelda series

    The original is my favorite It was such an expansive game at an early stage of the NES's life, and even through there wasn't whole lot in the way of significant missables or any way to twist the story (aside from doing low-level equip/life challenges), it still had great replay value. Music...

    Musicians and What Instruments You Play

    Guitarist - started at a very young age and have now been playing for 18 years. Played in several bands throughout HS and early college. I've been so put off by music over the last decade or so that I really have very few current influences. After getting away from playing for a while, I'm...
