Oh. Another one!  :)

If we keep this up we'll all know what's in each other's medicine cabinets.  :D



1. FIRST NAME ON YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE?  David
2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? My parents wanted to name me after my Grandfather, but I already had a cousin named Jan. Then they chose Andrew. But another cousin was named Andrew. So they picked David.
3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? Yesterday when Cory sang "Amazed" by Lonestar to me.
4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR OWN HANDWRITING? No. I print everything.
5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?  You do know what they put in that stuff don't you? I don't eat it. If I had to choose, it would probably be a hotdog. That is a lunch meat, isn't it?
6. KIDS?  No. But I would love to. I would love to have a daughter.
7. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?  Probably.
8. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? My mother found my journal when I was 15. I've never had once since. 
9. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT?  It's how I get through my day.
10. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS?  Nope. They yanked them when I was 6.
11. WOULD YOU EVER BUNGEE JUMP?  Absolutely!
12. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? Pebbles.
13. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SNEAKERS WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? No. I keep them tied.
14. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG?  Physically I am very strong. Emotionally I am not so strong.
15. WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF?I distance myself from people until I get to know them better. I don't like that. I am too emotional sometimes too. 
16. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? My mom and my ex lover Cody who passed away several years ago.

17. WHAT COLORS are you wearing right now?  A bright orange polo shirt and blue denim jeans.
18. LAST THING YOU ATE? Cookies and Ice cream. I'm nibbling on it right now as I type this!

19. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? Hannity and Combes on MSNBC.   :(
20. FAVORITE CRAYOLA CRAYON COLOR? I always loved the copper colored one.
21. FAVORITE SMELL? Magnolias just after a soft summer rain.
22. WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON (NOT A CO-WORKER) YOU TALKED WITH ON THE PHONE? My father.
23. THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE YOU ARE ATTRACTED TO?  Their eyes. And as soon as they walk past me I sneak a peek at their back porch.
24. FAVORITE DRINK? I'm a gay man. Tom Collins!
25. DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS? No. I don't need glasses yet. The day is coming though, I suppose. 
26. WHAT BOOKS ARE YOU READING? I am re reading all my Harry Potter books.
 
27. WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? Two baby tiger cubs with a scene of the moon behind them.
28. WHAT DID YOU WATCH LAST NIGHT? "Everybody Loves Raymond" and then I watched the news.
29. FAVORITE SOUND?  The sound of leaves rustling in the trees as a breeze blows.
30. ROLLING STONES OR BEATLES? Rolling Stones
31. THE FURTHEST YOU'VE BEEN FROM HOME? Egypt 
32. WHAT IS YOUR SPECIAL TALENT? I put my index finger of my right hand inbetween my index and middle finger of my left hand, place them up against my chin and flick my finger. It makes a very loud popping sound, like a bottle of champane when it is opened. It is all based on air pressure, but people cannot figure out how I do it. I love the confused looks on their faces, and then they always ask me "How the hell did you do that?"   :D

No questions about our medicine cabinets? Well, maybe on the next one.  :)

Edited For Typos. God. Here I go again.  >:(

I was just thinking that, especially when I read this one:

32. WHAT IS YOUR SPECIAL TALENT?  Oral sex.  Hey you asked!

I came this || close to saying that.  I swear.  But being the originator of the thread/survey, I didn't want to have a hard act to follow.  So to speak.

 :o

(Is it the Pisces in us that makes us so ridiculously randy, too, I wonder?  Or is it just the luck of the Irish?  ;))
