1. When was the last time you had a cold?
A: About 6-8 months ago…I think I got it traveling on an airplane…
2. How long were you sick?
A: About a week, but the last 2-3 days weren’t too bad.
3. Do you ride bikes?
A: Not in the past 5-6 years…
4. What is your favorite infomercial?
A: “Just set it….and forget it!” Of course the Ronco Rotisserie!
5. Do you have Tivo? If so, do you watch tv shows in real time anymore?
A: Yes, I have Tivo and yes, I occasionally I watch live TV…but usually about the 2nd commercial, I get fed up and watch something else on Tivo while I let the show I WAS watching finish Tivoing.
6. What is your opinion on little girls and beauty pageants?
A: Yeccchhhh. Although the movie Little Miss Sunshine looks pretty promising.
7. Who’s on first?
Who’s on first.
A: What?…..no, wait a minute…it’s a trick question, he’s on second.
8. How much would your dream house cost?
A: I dunno, I kinda like my house now, but if you want me to be all dreamy and whatnot, I guess about $5.6M would probably do it.
9. What would you do for a living if all jobs paid the same amount of money and college was free?
A: I’d be in charge of overall quality control product testing when the Sealy Posturepedic mattress company does a leveraged buyout of LA Burdicks chocolate company.
But seriously, I’d might like to write a daily column or run a blog for something I really liked…..like chocolate or Bandol wines.
10. How do you get your news?
A: The morning Boston Globe…sometimes the 6-7PM local and national TV news and occasionally from the Yahoo splashscreen when I start up my browser.
1. When was the last time you had a cold?
I am not sure…nothing bad enough recently to really remember. Maybe some winter sniffles but no big colds this past winter…or summer, weirdos!
2. How long were you sick?
N/A…but if I get a bad cold, it usually lasts about a week.
3. Do you ride bikes?
No. I have one with busted tires that I haven’t ridden since that day you, Kara, and I rode bikes around Westie and Roslindale for hours once. I assume I still could though, since you apparently can’t forget how to do it.
4. What is your favorite infomercial?
While I love the rotisserie as well, my favorite is the Magic Bullet. Hahaha! That sounds like some kind of sex toy or something like the Magic Rabbit or whatever they discover on Sex in the City. It is basically a blender/food processor that can make entire meals in 10 seconds!! Woohoo. I love it. It is in my Amazon shopping cart but I can’t bring myself to actually spend the $70 for it – plus, I don’t cook. I watch it whenever I am awake at 3 A.M.
5. Do you have Tivo? If so, do you watch tv shows in real time anymore?
No I don’t. I think if I did, I would still watch live TV though. I find it extremely odd that you and Devon will be sitting at home while your show is on and purposely find something else to do so that you can watch it on TiVo later – I wait all week for a new episode, I can’t wait any longer than I have to. However, I would totally pause and go make food or go to the bathroom so that I am far enough behind the live broadcast to forward through the commercials.
6. What is your opinion on little girls and beauty pageants?
Pointless and kinda creepy.
7. Who’s on first?
Umm…I’d say “I don’t know”, but he is on third. My answer is : WHO!
8. How much would your dream house cost?
Umm, hello! Dream House! It would be free. ( Yeah, in my dreams!)
9. What would you do for a living if all jobs paid the same amount of money and college was free?
I don’t know. Something where I could sleep late and take a lot of time off if I wanted it.
I always wanted to be in a Broadway show if only it weren’t for the starving artist part of it – waiting tables for years before you even get a callback audition. So yeah, if I could get paid just as much as anyone else for doing so, I would be an “artist”.
10. How do you get your news?
I don’t really. Sometimes Dan tells me things and then yells at me for my ignorance. I also read things that catch my eye on my Netscape or Yahoo homescreens.
1. When was the last time you had a cold?
This past two weeks.
2. How long were you sick?
I’m almost healthy now, so assuming, I’m 100% better tomorrow, that’s two weeks of sick:(
3. Do you ride bikes?
I used to, and I plan to again. I just got a borrowed bike fixed up and ready to ride, but I’ve been too sick…
4. What is your favorite infomercial?
Due to Tivo (see below) I don’t think I’ve seen an infomercial in at least 8 years.
5. Do you have Tivo? If so, do you watch tv shows in real time anymore?
I do have a Tivo. I’ve had a Tivo for a REALLY long time. Same one. I don’t watch real time tv unless I’m upstairs (where there is no Tivo), keeping a sick girl company while she watches Animal Planet or Discovery Channel.
I’ve actually gotten so lazy, that I prefer the ripped tv shows I can download, where all the commercials have been cut out, so I don’t even have to fast-forward through them.
6. What is your opinion on little girls and beauty pageants?
Little girls are cool, and made from sugar and spice, or so I’m told. Beauty pageants are odd, but neat. If you mean “Little Girl Beauty Pageants”, then it’s very creepy.
7. Who’s on first?
Is that a football term?
8. How much would your dream house cost?
Around here it would be about two million. Apparently.
9. What would you do for a living if all jobs paid the same amount of money and college was free?
Probably what I do now. Or maybe bake bread, or repair motorcycles.
10. How do you get your news?
cnn.com, bbc.co.uk, slashdot.org, fark.com, and NPR
1. When was the last time you had a cold?

Right now. I’m still coughing and hacking, but I think I’m near the end of the cold.
2. How long were you sick?
I’ve been sick for about a week and a half so far.
3. Do you ride bikes?
I used to quite a bit, but I havn’t ridden in probably 3 years. I took Devon’s “new” bike out for a spin a few days ago and felt very unsure of my riding abilities.
4. What is your favorite infomercial?
I love the “set it, and forget it” one. I dunno if it’s still on, but I used to LOVE the food dehydrator one. Who knew that dehyrated food could look so good?
5. Do you have Tivo? If so, do you watch tv shows in real time anymore?
Yes, but I think Devon’s gonna get some other tv recorder thing that works for HDTV shows. I do watch shows in real time, sometimes, but I keep trying to rewind shows if i see something cute (like lemurs) that I want to replay for Devon.
6. What is your opinion on little girls and beauty pageants?
Creepy, but intreguing. I totally want to enter Fifi in a pagent.
7. Who’s on first?
Who.
8. How much would your dream house cost?
If it was my dream house, then it would be free. But it would probably cost between 2 and 4 mill to buy my dream house in Seattle. Clearly, the lemur and Fifi need to get high paying jobs.
9. What would you do for a living if all jobs paid the same amount of money and college was free?
Um.. same thing that I do now?
10. How do you get your news?
The Daily Show and Devon.
