The Survey Says…
I’ve been having trouble thinking of stuff to write about recently…so today I thought I’d ‘borrow’ the survey that Alexandra did on her blog and share the results. Not the greatest survey I’ve ever done…but who knows, maybe you’ll learn a thing or two about me?
1. You have $5 and need to buy snacks at a gas station. What do you buy?
Probably a bag of chips, a chocolate bar and a drink.
2. If you were reincarnated as a sea creature, what would you want to be?
I’d like to come back as a narwhal…why not?
3. Song you're listening to right now?
No music.
4. What do you order when you're at IHOP?
Not a lot of IHOP’s where I live…but probably a combination of pancakes, bacon, home fries and toast.
5. Last book you read?
’Big Sur’ by Jack Kerouac (for the 3rd or 4th time)
6. Describe your favorite pair of shoes?
I had a couple of great pairs of converse ‘one stars’ that lasted me forever…their toast now though. I have really poor taste in footwear I’m afraid.
7. Describe the last time you were injured:
I got my finger caught in a rotary press when I worked at a packaging factory back in 2005 and almost had it ripped off. Yup…that’s right…ripped off. Lucky for me the turbine was not very powerful and we were able to stop it in time. Amazingly I still have full use of my middle finger.
8. Of all your friends, who would you want to be stuck in a well with?Probably my old university buddy J. Macgyver's got nothing on us.

It used to bother me that this was just expected and if you didn’t do it, it was disrespectful. 'Why am I hugging you again?'

Last week, right before a phone interview with some big shot at CTV News (Canadian TV station)

Effin right, my man. We could rig us up a collapsable ladder using nothing but shoe laces, fecal matter, and a femur bone. We'd be oot of that well in no time.
Egad. All I can see now is that scene from The Machinist, where the guy loses his arm and it's just flapping away in that piece of machinery. Your accident must have been excruciating--but I'm glad it healed up and you can still use your finger.
You can "borrow" my surveys anytime you like--I rip them off from others constantly!
