Re: GtKaP Interview Thread 2: Wolfbane
1977. What happened at that time?
If you drove your Chevy to a levee, what state is that levee in?
Alternatively, if you drove your Chevy to a Levee en Masse, what would you say when you met Napoleon? What if you met Robespierre? Marat? Hell, what if you met Murat?
In that vein, do you agree with me that if, after the battle of Ligny, Napoleon had sent Ney after Blucher instead of Grouchy, he would have likely won Waterloo? Ney was always brash, and Grouchy too cautious, and Grouchy failed to press Blucher, and lost him, and Ney led an un-ordered cavalry charge that ended in complete destruction, losing Napoleon practically all his cavalry.
If the Hindenburg hadn't burned, do you think we would still be having airship cruises over the atlantic? If not, do you WISH we would? Cause, y'know, airship cruises would be pretty sweet.

What's your favorite OOTS strip?
Sexy Shoeless God of War.
What's your favorite Erfworld strip?
Any of them.
How does your ITP persona relate to you in real life?

Gangsta'. Alternately: Playa'

The wind in the fall, lightly touching the dead leaves on trees and making them rustle.
What sound do you hate?
Dog Whistles.
What profession other than yours would you like to attempt?
Being a cop.
What profession would you not like to participate in? [/QUOTE]
Cleaning high-rise windows. I've gotten over my fear of heights, but there's a limit.
Have you ever travelled overseas?
Yes, to Seoul, South Korea.
If so, what event really drove it home that you weren't in your own country anymore?
Stepping outside the airport really. I wasn't too bothered by it. I was fairly young. 9 I think.
What place/s do you most and least want to visit?
Most: Romania. Least: Siberia.
What have you recently discovered or worked out about yourself?
That I apparently love little kids as long as their partly my flesh and blood. *hugs niece again*
In what ways have you changed since you were half your current age?
I've definitely gotten a lot more mature, believe I'm smarter, and feel really good about myself now.

What color(s) do you prefer to wear?
Browns and grays. Earth tones really.

Nope.
Will you go quietly when they come for you?
Nope! It'll be so loud, FOX and CNN will be covering it.
What is your anti-zombie weapon of choice?
Probably a splitting maul.
Are you running to something, or from something?
I'd like to think to something, but I fear it's from something.
What's the magic word?
Key Lime Pie.
1977. What happened at that time?
Elvis, sadly.
If you drove your Chevy to a levee, what state is that levee in?
Dry
Alternatively, if you drove your Chevy to a Levee en Masse, what would you say when you met Napoleon? What if you met Robespierre? Marat? Hell, what if you met Murat?
Probably tell them all "Hi" and leave before all hell broke loose. >.>
In that vein, do you agree with me that if, after the battle of Ligny, Napoleon had sent Ney after Blucher instead of Grouchy, he would have likely won Waterloo? Ney was always brash, and Grouchy too cautious, and Grouchy failed to press Blucher, and lost him, and Ney led an un-ordered cavalry charge that ended in complete destruction, losing Napoleon practically all his cavalry.
While I may study a lot of war and history, sadly, Napoleon is one of my weak points, so I couldn't say.
If the Hindenburg hadn't burned, do you think we would still be having airship cruises over the atlantic? If not, do you WISH we would? Cause, y'know, airship cruises would be pretty sweet.
Yes, and Hell yes!

Not too bad, though my daughter got sick right before bed, which is a bummer - both because I hate when either of my kids is sick and because we decided to cancel our D&D session for tomorrow out of an abundance of caution.

Zherog was the name of one of my old 2nd edition D&D characters. When I got back into playing D&D when 3.0 launched, I decided to recycle the name (since the original Zherog didn't do much and so didn't have much of a history). When I registered for the WotC forums back in '01, I needed a screen name. Something or other glitched when I tried to use my first initial and last name, and so I needed a name and decided to use my character's name. I've been using it onlline ever since.
And to explain the name itself... It's a bastardization of "Jhereg" - a novel by Steven Brust, and the name of a creature within that novel (and the rest of that series). I liked the look of it, but thought it needed to start with a Z sound instead. Then I didn't like the last syllable, and swapped the e for an o.
Why'd you pick what you did for your avatar?
I do like Guinness in real life. But I don't drink it nearly as much as my online persona did back then.
Is there anything about you that you think people should know that they won't get from just reading your posts?
If so, what is it?
hmmm.. As I said before, green is my favorite color. But I don't actually wear it often.
I'm most comfortable in jeans and t-shirt (or shorts and t-shirt in the summer). For work, I typically wear either black or tan pants and a variety of shirts or sweaters that don't really favor one color.
What do you like to collect?
How many avatars do you have?
Will you be attending GenCon?
What type of chocolate do you prefer?
What type and how many pets do you have?
Do you enjoy watching the Weather Channel?
Star Wars came out, I saw it in the drive-in theater with my parents, and it totally rocked my world.
If you could say a single event started the Renaissance, which event would it be?
Have you ever played the Elder Scrolls games? If yes, which one is your favourite?
What genre of books are your favourite?
Do you read often?
I read every day. I read a lot of reports and documents at work, I read the news, I read forums. I suspect, though, you meant whether I read for pleasure often. And the answer to that, sadly, is no. I read something before going to bed - typically a page or two or five of a book or magazine. I'm a very slow reader, and have a large backlog of stuff I want to read.
What was the last book you finished?
What's your favourite book of all time?

Re: GtKaP Interview Thread 2
Do you, in fact, have any cheese here at all?
Will you go quietly when they come for you?
What is your anti-zombie weapon of choice?
Are you running to something, or from something?
What's the magic word?

Sadly, no. And now I'm hungry, too. *sadface*

Re: GtKaP Interview Thread 2: Zherog
Fish or chips?
Up or down?
Do you like radishes? If so, can you conclusively prove that you're a human being, cause I'm doubting it.
What's it like being a parent, having others who depend on you for everything? I'm not one, so I'm curious.
Black and tans, Y/N?
All that I say applies only to myself. You author your own actions and choices. I cannot and will not be responsible for you, nor are you for me, regardless of situation or circumstance.

The two are not mutually exclusive. ;) And, in fact, go awesome together, with a bit of malted vinegar (for both) and salt on the chips.

I find myself sometimes saying things I swore I never would ("because I said so, that's why!") and doing things I never imagined (such as coaching soccer - until 3 years ago, the extent of my soccer knowledge was "don't use your hands.").
I'm often amazed when I see my own life experiences all over again through their eyes. Things we old farts take for granted such as the smell of the flowers in spring and sound of birds singing after a rainstorm are new and exciting to them. And as a parent, if you open your mind a little bit, you can experience the newness of those things all over again. Another fun one is when they hear old songs or watch old movies you love. My daughter is a big Queen and Aerosmith fan; my son is a huge Star Wars fan. If I sit back and close my eyes, I can experience those things all over again.
It's truly heartbreaking when they hurt, physically and emotionally. I'm learning that the physical hurts are probably easier. For example, my daughter recently was a silent victim of bullying in school. She also recently fell while riding her scooter and landed on her face. It was way easier to deal with the physical injuries (cuts and bruises only, thankfully) than the emotional ones -- especially that no matter what we say and do, she still felt she couldn't talk to us about it at first.
It's uplifting when they do good. I mentioned previously we have two cats. One of those was a stray my son found and we took in. She was young when he found her, 6 to 9 months old. And she was likely dumped rather than wild, because she wasn't completely afraid of people. My son insisted we needed to save her, and when he learned that it was a bit expensive (we were going to get her fixed, and release her if she ended up being feral) he brought us his piggy bank.
It's inspiring when their minds soar, unbound by limitations placed there by life's experiences. There's no reason, in their mind, why we can't put a colony on the moon or even Mars; there's no reason we can't use less and reduce waste; there's no reason we can't just teach people to stop abusing others. In their mind, there's no reason they can't become world-class musicians or soccer superstars or a doctor that cures cancer. Life truly has no limitations until you learn to place them there.
It's mundane and droll and boring when day after day is a cycle of Time to get up for school/Do your homework/Get ready for karate or basketball or soccer/Do your music practice/eat your dinner/brush your teeth and get ready for bed/Good night and have sweet dreams. Routines come easily, and most of the time they're a good thing. But it's important to sometimes remember to break the routines.
That's my short answer, anyway. ;)

Do you feel pretty? Oh so pretty? Do you feel pretty and witty and gay? And do you pity any girl who is not you today?I use black for sarcasm.
