Contracted from
1. First Name?
Scott
2. Were you named after anyone?
Sir Walter Scott. Try explaining that one to redneck school mates, who think that Ivanhoe is a dessert. And since it’s not really his last name, it gets even more complicated.
3. Do you wish on stars?
Not any more
4. When did you last cry?
It depends. No full on weeping for a very long time. But there is the occasional tear during especially moving film drama.
5. Do you like your handwriting?
Not particularly. I type for a reason; the nuns could never quite beat penmanship into me
6. What’s your favorite lunch meat?
Pastrami.
7. What is your birth date?
None of your business. Please stop asking, human race.
8. What is your most embarrassing CD?
I feel confident in all of my Compact Disc purchases. But I’m sure the rest of you will find “Micky Un-rapped”, the disney hip-hop album, particularly vile.
9. If you were another person, would YOU be friends with you?
Yes. But I would definitely think hard about loaning me money.

Not at all. But I do take risks.
12. Do looks matter?
For what, and in what context? The answer is yes, but not always to me.

Why give up something this deliciously painful? It’s mine, all mine.

If you can tell me where my first one is, I’ll be able to figure it out.
15. Do you trust others easily?
No.
16. What was your favorite toy as a child?
…
…
I have no idea. I was rather attached to a lot of stuff.
I particularly liked the toys at my Grandparents’ Houses. The West Coast set had a Spirograph; the East Coast had an Eagle playset from Space, 1999.
But the Family’s illustrated set of Oz books was always the first thing I’d grab for, as well as the Reader’s Digest abridged collections for kids. (West coast, for both)
17. Which class in high school do you think was totally stupid?
Differential calculus. But mainly because of my instructor, not the subject matter. I’m sure I’d be in space right now if she’d made it more interesting. Instead, I soured somewhat on mathematics.

Not so you’d notice
19. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Not so you’d notice

Pick one. I’ll let you know if I’ve heard it before
