Doing well, I am grown and have a daughter now..15 years since joining MB as essentially a child lol. I cannot believe how many Music Banter OG's are still posting. Good to see it. Iv always popped in from time to time over the years.

Hope you are doing well on the other side of the world.

1. What's one thing you hate about summer?

I love summer, but like GD I also hate our ticks.


2. What was the last thing you physically mailed?

Some audio equip. I had gotten a faulty microphone preamp and sent it back to the store.


3. On balance, do you prefer traditional petrol/diesel cars, hybrid or electric?

I much prefer electric. They're comfortable to drive, if not as fun as a manual gear, and they don't produce local pollution. Hybrid kinda seems silly as part time, it's a fossil car lugging a big battery around and other times, it's an electric lugging that big fossil engine around. I mean, come on. Forgedaboutit!



4. How would you characterise the health system in your country/state?

As a service, it's phenomenal. If you're working in health, I think you may feel stressed and that you're not compensated enough.


5. Somewhat similar to a question asked a few weeks ago, but with a twist: If YOU were ruling a country, or in charge of one, would you be a benevolent or an oppressive leader?

My own societal utilitarian maxim roughly goes as follows. The goal for society is to increase the quality of life of its inhabitants in the long run. It should be the guiding principle for legislation etc. Traditions, principles, hangups etc. matter less than good consequences for the people and their happiness.

Obviously, I am a very benevolent leader.


6. What was your first ever pet?

A pet rat called Pelle. He was actually my sisters, but I took care of him and took him shopping, we slept together (not in that way), etc.


7. Spearmint, peppermint or no mint?

I can't remember the difference. We have mint in the garden and it's nice.


8. Name one food item which is no longer available that you would love to see back again?

Pepsi crystal because I remember it and if I were to see it again, I would definitely try it, although perhaps just once.


9. If you're old enough to remember, what precautions, if any, did you take for Y2K?

No precautions. I got drunk with my friends and played with fireworks.


10. How do you store your music, generally and if you like, historically too?

I have a file server. Some of it is uploaded to my youtube music account. My vinyl collection is in a cupboard in the living room. A select few vinyls are in frames, hanging on our walls.


11. Someone gives you a gun. You will not be let go alive unless you shoot one person. There will be absolutely no legal or criminal comeback. Once you shoot your target you will be free, legally and in reality. Who do you choose (can be anyone, as long as they're still alive), or do you refuse and take the consequences?

I don't know, but I'd worry about how killing someone might damage myself as a person. If I killed a state leader or something, I would probably question that decision for the rest of my life. Better to shoot a nobody serial killer like Robert Pickton.


12. If you can remember, what was your first post on Music Banter?

Pretty sure it was my intro post. It was probably nice and sweet.

1.What’s your favorite sandwich?

I'm really more of a "throw meat on bread till I get tired" kinda guy so I don't have any specific style of sandwich. Making a grilled cheese with olive oil is pretty based though.

2.What’s the one thing you own that you should really throw out?

I want all my ****.

3.What is the scariest animal?

Theoretically that fish that swims up your dick but in day to day life paper wasps are *******s. They just sort of run up on you and stare you straight in the face.

4.Have you ever asked someone for an autograph? If so, from whom?

No.

5. What is the most used app on your phone?

Podcast Addict.

6. Describe the rest of your life in five words?

Dear God that was boring.

Sasquatch, no cap.

When I was a kid, I asked the costumed actors as Disney World for autographs. So yeah, I got an autograph from Donald Duck and I was basically the coolest.
