Via Janet comes the ABC meme. To learn a bit about me, click through to below the fold.
- Accent: None that I can detect. Of course, no one thinks they have an accent.
- Booze: It depends on my mood -- I'll drink pretty much anything. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a good IPA, sometimes a thick stout, and sometimes a Miller Light. If it's wine, it's best if it's from Burgundy. As for liquor, gin is my perfect poison.
- Chore I Hate: I agree with Janet; grading sucks.
- Dog or Cat: I currently have neither. I have had both. Either one is good.
- Essential Electronics: TV + cable box. Computer + router.
- Favorite Cologne: I hate that shit.
- Gold or Silver: White gold.
- Hometown: Los Angeles, CA.
- Insomnia: If I'm not tired.
- Job Title:
Indentured servantGraduate student. - Kids: Do I count? If not, none (that I know of).
- Living arrangements: Small apartment.
- Most admirable traits: My ego, intelligence, and mad skillz. Oh, and my modesty.
- Not going to cop to: I have no idea what that means. Can we get a meme to English dictionary in here?
- Overnight hospital stays: Three times: when I was born, when I had major surgery in my second month, and when I ate some bad egg rolls my junior year of college.
- Phobias: I'm afraid of fear. Roosevelt was right.
- Quote: Um, yeah, I can't think of any right now. Sorry.
- Religion: Jew by ethnicity, atheist by belief.
- Siblings: One sister.
- Time I wake up: 6 or 7am.

- Vegetable I love: Killer tomatoes.
- Worst habit: Why you gotta go raggin' on nuns?
- X-rays: Teeth, shoulder, foot, stomach, knee, maybe others I've forgotten.
- Yummy foods I make: Everything I cook tastes good. Pizza, burgers on the grill, and I can bake.
- Zodiac sign: Virgo.
