    What's your first name? Brian
    Do you play hoops? A lot less than I used to (kind of like golfing :( )
    How good are you? Glue. but I don't mind playing physically, and I pass and play D, and hard foul when required (hate people showing up bad teammates).
    How old are you? 31
    What state do you live in? WA
    Education? BS Aero Engineering. Going back for MIB/JD at some point soon
    Preferred drink? Ward Eight
    Current book? Bible regularly, working my way through "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" and always go back to WEB Griffin's Marine books and LOTR.
    Last movie you liked? Burn After Reading
    Current favorite TV show? I DVR PTI and Blazer games. Watch Mad Men, House and 24 with the wife. Not much other use for TV, though since we both liked "Ed" I'm waiting to see if "Trust Me" is any good. Still really bummed that they canceled Studio 60 and Love Monkey. Can't stand "reality" shows.
    Current overused word? poopy
    Shoe size? 9.5
    Mother's maiden name? No thank you.
    Pooping: enjoy it with a book, or is it all business? I'll hold it until I can relax and read. Small phobia of public RRs. If I absolutely have to, it's a total bird's nest.
    Sing along to songs? If I know it, you better believe it. I just don't listen to enough to know, generally.
    Out loud or whispering? Is there any other way?
    Do you speed? Yes, but more in the OP mode than the J-Rich mode.
    MIXUM? Don't mind him at all. If you can't debate and reason with him without losing your temper, that's more of a reflection on you than on him.:dunno:
    Best soda? Mountain Dew used to have this on lockdown, but since I'm older and sugar sticks to me more than it used to, Diet Pepsi Max or Coke Zero (when mixing)
    Water? Paying for it to come in a bottle seems like a waste. Tap's fine.
    Cig smoker? No, though the twice-a-year cigar on special occasions goes ok with me.
    Other languages: French, with a smattering of Korean and Hausa (trying to get better)
