Ask Me Anything

September 6th, 2011 - Uncategorized - 47 Comments »

This is my 600th blog post, and in honor of that, I want to do something a little different today. I’m constantly asking you guys questions around here, but today I want you to do the asking. Ask me anything.

What do you want to know? It can be serious, trivial, complicated, ridiculous…whatever. I’ll answer each and every one of them.*

Here are a few random ideas to get the juices flowing:

+ What is your Myers-Briggs personality type?
+ Who is the last television character you’d ever want to have dinner with?
+ What was your most valuable baseball card growing up?
+ What was your degree in college?
+ Which blogs are in your must-read folder in Google Reader?
+ What is your biggest insecurity as a parent?
+ How did you meet your wife?
+ Why do you have that stupid picture of yourself in your blog header?

Got it? I’ll compile all the questions and answer them in a post (or two).

Your turn. Ask me anything. ANYTHING.

*Unless it will embarrass my wife.

    We need to establish a documented and official distance / separation point for holding the door open for the person behind you. Categories may be necessary (I.e., Children, Women, Men, Delivery Guys, Delivery Guys with Hand Trucks, Delivery Guys Carrying Heavy Things, etc.). Is this something you can devote a large percentage of your remaining life span to? Will you need to involve Tripp?

    Oh, I have another question that is more important than the Mr Spacely one, so this is like when you used to call a "do over" in backyard pitch up smear. Can I be in a video with you and Tripp? It doesnt have to be a speaking role.
