I was way behind on this questionnaire. Normally, I try to send one every year but it had been 20 months since my last one.  Of course my last questionnaire was considered my "ultimate questionnaire" so I had to top it this time.  I tried re-answering every question, but in the end that took too long and I gave up half way though the job. Other than the base questions, not many of my sarcastic answers changed much over the 20 months that passed, so I ended up keeping most of them the same.  And to make matters worse, since my e-mail was so large half of my friends didn't receive it because the server's though it was junk or spam mail.  Damn those filters...  Now I have to figure out what I am going to do for my next questionnaire, just to top this one.

 

Hey everyone, long time no see.

     Well I’m usually not this far behind when it comes to writing letters, but in case you haven’t noticed it’s been nearly two years since I wrote a large letter to everyone. 
Yea, I know, you would rather me send have a personal letter straight from me instead of these “mass e-mails” I try to send each year.  And you know what? I would much rather write a letter for each of you.  But due to time constraints and my overwhelming desire to remain sane for the rest of the year, this is the best I can do for now
J  

  For those of you who look at this and think “God, that’s too much to read”, well, you’re right. It’s way too much to read!  If you want, you can read it like a book and just read different paragraphs each night before you go to bed. Or you can read the first couple paragraphs (the essentials) and then skip to the bottom and read the really stupid questions and laugh.   In the end, how will I ever know whether you read it or not?  Heck, you could delete this puppy now and there’s nothing I could do about it (except haunt your dreams for the rest of your life, gwa-hahaahhah!!!!).  And in the end, this is only sent for your entertainment and my personal records.  I write some mordant answers throughout the questionnaire some of which you are bound to get a kick out of, and when I’m finished I have an e-mail which accurately portrays of how much of a fool I am. Thus I can save it and put it in the files with the other questionnaires I’ve written over the past few years. Now I have documentation which shows my slow devolution into mental retardation (Algernon, here I come!!).

   Of course, I don’t expect anyone to go to the trouble of filling this out and sending back to me. I never seem to, so I shouldn’t expect you to either.  But if you feel like sending me an e-mail just to say “hi”  or “stop e-mailing you freak” I will try my hardest to get back to you ASAP.  If I don’t hear from you, I hope everything is going well and I wish you the best of luck with whatever you are doing! 

   Finally, make sure you go to my comic webpage too. I could ignore this entire e-mail and go to my website just once and I would die a happy man. But I’ll die happier if you read this e-mail AND go to the website…. And don’t forget to sign the guestbook on the left!!  Plus, you might know some of the other people who write for the website too, and it’s always good to keep in touch with old friends/fiends.  And if you actually have some morbid curiosity about what’s going on in my life then you could always read my journal on there too…

Type of car you drive now: -White 1994 Civic hatchback

The word or phrase you hate: “Your sister is hot!”

Funniest thing you have ever heard? – Funniest?  Eh, don’t know off of the top of my head. Maybe when I gave Juan that hot sauce and he drank sour milk to ease the pain…
Word or phrase you say too much? "Sweet” “Sit down please, okay you can go, next!”  (lifeguarding a water slide)  “One to a tube please” *whistle blow*

If you could kill any one person and get away with it, then who would it be?  Why should I say? So you can get more bodyguards? Oh I am on to your little game…

Toothpaste: - Listerine

Piercing or tattoos?I’ve had the same earring since I was 15. Why does everyone say “Oh you just got your ear pierced, that’s cool”? People have short-term memories

Shoe Size: -9 1/2

Do you get along with your parents? – I work two jobs and live in the dorm during the schoolyear, so I never see them to get along with them

Most humiliating moment: Good night, my entire life has been a humiliating moment, I can’t think of just one thing

Best moment you ever had: - Any of the times I spent the night laughing with my friends

Boyfriend\Girlfriend? – I ranted about this on my site, but to recap, I haven’t found the right girl for me yet.

Thing you hate about girlfriend\boyfriend: - We all have our little quirks that we like and dislike right?  No reason to dwell on them.  Of course to go with the current theme I would say if I hate anything it’s the fact my current girlfriend is so transparent… in fact you could say she was non-existent!

Craziest person or silliest you know: - I think all of us are little goofballs in our own ways. But the worst ones were the art gang from my 10th grade year. They corrupted me with their jokes and stories and made me the person I am today (so blame them)

Favorite Holiday: - Christmas, plus we got off for a full month, what’s not to love!

Gotten beat up: - When I was in a kenpo class this seemed to be a nightly event, and yet all those shots to the head never seemed to hurt anying..loong..turm….wher am i?

Any identifying marks? Are you trying to turn me to the cops or something?  Well I’m on to your little game, you’ll never catch me, coppers!       

Done anything crazy lately? Tried to take over the world…  well that, and I’ve done some very interesting things while going racing down some waterslides. I’m still the undefeated “king of the slide” champ.

The one thing no one knows about you? And if I tell you then suddenly everyone knows, no we aren’t going to play that game.

 

 The Future......

School: -Henderson as long as it stays free, then off to grad school in good ole California!

What do you want to be? -Computer Animator (this answer has yet to change over the past 7 questionnaires I’ve done through the years)

Who do you want to marry, if you could pick them out now? er….um… I don’t like picking favorites.  Either that, or I am trying to find an excuse not to tell which girl I think is perfect (for me). You figure it out.

Place to live: -California, sooner or later

Number of Kids: -2, one of each.. boy comes first. This is MANDATORY!  ;)

Names of Kids: -Don't know...probably Jayme and Trey (got to have them rhyme with Jay or have it in their name, you know)

 

Do You Believe In....

Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny? – Just how else do I get stuff during the holidays? Just tell me that!

Love at first sight? –yes, I think it’s possible. Not sure if I’ve even been affected by it, but I would like to think so.

God? –his necessity is becoming more and more apparent

Horoscopes? –Not really, but on those really paranoid/superstitious days (like before tests) I’ll check them for the heck of it

Ghosts? -You bet, why else would we have the Ghostbusters?

Heaven? -Yes

Hell? -Yes,  AKA my 9th grade English class

 

Which Is Better...
Coke or Pepsi? -I'd have to say Coke since you can make deadlier weapons with it than you can with Pepsi

Oranges or apples? -Apples, they make bigger bruises when thrown across the Caddo, but I prefer Orange Juice over Apple Juice :)

Deaf or blind? –I would rather be deaf, because I always have music playing in my head. I would rather see and not hear than vice versa.

Pools or hot tubs? – Pools for crazy fun, hot tubs to relax in.  Throw in a few cute gal friends of mine and it’s all good.

Blondes or brunettes(guys/girls)?I’ve always been attracted to blondes for some reason.

T.V. or radio? -TV!

 

About The Opposite Sex.......

Honestly, what do you notice first? -The hand as it comes slapping across my face... Actually truthfully, I notice how good they look first (including weight and complexion), then the um..."attributes" (hey I'm a guy, whattya expect?) But that's not what I judge them on, I like people for their personalities, the other stuff is just icing on the cake (except for some occasions, but with those girls you have to like them for their bodies, I mean just look at ‘em they’re gorgeous!!!! Except those girls are the ones I would never want to spend my life with. They usually have nothing more to them than their looks) Some answers never change.

Must-have personality trait: -Loves to talk, respectful, trustworthy

Must-not-have personality trait: -Psychotic tendencies (that’s my area) actually, they shouldn't be a heartbreaker or too “bossy” (that’s my sister’s area)

Hair-long or short? –Long hair is beautiful but is can be a choke hazard when it when it’s time to snuggle.  As long as they don’t have hair shorter than me, then I’m happy

Eye Color? -Deep Blue… Or green. Or have cat eyes. Wait, scratch that last one

Thing you hate most about them? – They are easy to fall for, yet so hard to get over.  And sometimes you don’t want to get over them, but it’s for the best…

Thing you like most about them? – They can change your life in a single move.  They can turn the worst day into the best just by being there to hug, or stroke your back. How just the little things can make you so happy that you forget all about your worries and stresses. I could write a book on this question.

Have you ever truly been in love?  - Yes, and the feelings still exist even though we have parted our ways…

Do they know about this Love?  -Maybe, maybe not.  Either way it’s probably too late to fix now.

 

When Was The Last Time You

Took a shower? – I took a bath today, which is the first time in ages. I take showers every day though.

Watched Bambi? – A very long time ago.  On an unrelated note, anyone else have a hankering for some venison? I just saw a deer decapitated by an 18 wheeler on the way to work. That’s an image that won’t leave me for a while.

Cried? –  When my dog came back

Made out with Somebody At the beginning of summer and with a good friend.  But making out under the wrong circumstances is more trouble than its worth so I try not to do it anymore.

HAD SEX? -*gasp* Haven’t I ranted about this yet? Oh well, I will further down in the letter.

Been Drunk?  -  It’s been quite a few months, and I can still count the total times I’ve been drunk in my life on one hand.  Unfortunately, the pictures from one of said events still haunt me today.

 

What Is....

Your favorite number? -21, 76, 84, 512

Your most prized and important possession? – My computer has my entire life on it.  And my self-made piano books are quite dear to me too…

The worst song you've ever heard? – For the love of God, give Macy Gray a throat lozenge, her voice kills small animals.
