Yep. One time, a reporter came up to me in downtown Chicago and did a quick man-on-the-street interview with me asking my opinion on a big criminal trial that was all over local news at the time. Another time, my wife and were at an ice cream stand and a news crew came and filmed us a and a few other people eating ice cream for one one of those "wow, it sure is hot today" type of news stories.

Made me laugh.

Yeah, damn were there a lot of typos there.

1.) Have you ever been on TV?
Funny you ask this now, I'm going to be interviewed again in two days. I'm usually quoted in the newspaper or interviewed thanks to the volunteer work that I do in the community.


2.) What foreign food do you enjoy most (general or specific)?

Italian. I can eat pasta all day every day.

3.) Have you ever made a fool of yourself in public? What happened?

I'm sure I have but I guess any time it happens I push it deep down into my memory. I can't recall a good story right now.

4.) Do people in your area play obnoxiously loud music on their cellphones while on the bus?

Yep but not just on the bus walking down the street as well.

5.) Do you think you could do better in life?

Yep. I am constantly working on it.

6.) Do you think a certain amount of daily conflict is necessary in life?


Nope. Not needed at all.

Have you ever been on TV?

Nope.

What foreign food do you enjoy most (general or specific)?

Chinese, especially Dim Sum. I used to make experimental Bao Tzu with my sister (for example, one with pumpkin, sweet potato, and a bunch of spices inside, instead of barbecued pork).

Have you ever made a fool of yourself in public? What happened?

Oh yeah, all the time. Too many times to recount. I'm an idiot, you see.

Do people in your area play obnoxiously loud music on their cellphones while on the bus?

Yes. On the bus, and everywhere else.

Do you think you could do better in life?

Yeah, I could.

Do you think a certain amount of daily conflict is necessary in life?

Sure. Resistance toughens up the muscles, as surely as it forces you to think critically.

1.) Have you ever been on TV?

Yeah. Interviewed after a Star Trek convention (shut up) and also at the same convention when I took part in a Star Trek quiz (I said, shut UP!) where I was just seen sitting at a desk poring over questions like the nerd I am.
2.) What foreign food do you enjoy most (general or specific)?

Bangers and mash. Well, it's English so that's foreign to me.

3.) Have you ever made a fool of yourself in public? What happened?

Oh yeah. Once I was at a bus stop waiting to catch the bus (oddly enough) to work. Car went by, someone I knew. They stopped, as I assumed, to give me a lift. I went up. They drove off. Like an idiot, I pursued them on foot for about a hundred yards before turning to go back to the bus stop, where obviously everyone was pissing themselves laughing at me. Good times.

4.) Do people in your area play obnoxiously loud music on their cellphones while on the bus?

No not really. Sometimes cars going by, but that's about it.

5.) Do you think you could do better in life?

Given my current circumstances, I'd say no. But there's always the potential to do better.

6.) Do you think a certain amount of daily conflict is necessary in life?
Yes, unless you're a member of the Eloi.

Mash makes me gag every time. I can't understand why somebody would want to ruin a good sausage like that.

You don't like mashed potato?

No. I never have it on my Sunday Dinner. I replace it with extra extra pork.

Fair enough. As long as you like Yorkshire puddings though.
