You would be a good beacon to other runners when going through a fog bank! I get all red-faced too....

Get a spoiler for your hat to keep you from going airborne.

I am Ozzy in your Pants.

Wheel Bridge Electricity Refrigeration <- Added this, it's REALLY big Flight

Eaten anything off of my forehead.

There was a scientific study done recently, and they tried to quantify sadness in movies (not sure why), but the conclusion they came up with was that the movie The Champ - when Ricky Shroeder is telling the (dead) champ (his dad) to wake up, is the saddest scene ever filmed. I teared up when I first saw it as a teenager.…

Whoosh!

1. Aliens 2. Army of Darkess 3. Blade

I've used mine for 6 hours of hiking. It was a lot of calories.

I have a story about my wife. A few years ago we were walking around in Epcot at Disneyworld. It had just rained, and the ground was wet. As we walked along, she passed a guy whose shoes were squeaking on the wet pavement, so she said "Awfully noisy there, aren't you?" He said "Yes, it's my artificial leg". She looked…

I did it a few years ago on New Years Day in Boston Harbor. I was with a group from where I worked. The funny thing was, my wife was there to videotape it, but I got so caught up in the high adrenaline rush to the water that I got there before her. After I came out, she told me to do it again for the camera. I did, and it…

Wise potato chips.

We just stayed at the Port Orleans French Quarter, which is the smallest resort on the property. We loved it. It was beside a river that had a great path going to the Port Orleans Riverside resort.

A very inspiring group here! I ran 4 miles this morning, then 15 minutes on the rowing machine. I was going to take a karate class tonight, but I just gave blood, and the blood police advised against it.

Roll the egg on the counter, cracking the shell, then peel under running water. Works for our fresh eggs.

This might just be my new sig!

If you do, design it so you can add more to it and make an interesting picture of some sort.

It used to be your first pet and the street you grew up on. Putting your mother's maiden name on the web isn't a great idea, since many financial websites use this as part of the verification of your identity. So mine (with street name) is Spoody Montrose. Really.

I have several going at the same time: -Just finished the 2nd Hunger Games book, about to start the third. -Audiobook for commuting: Here's the Story: Surviving Marcia Brady and Finding My True Voice by Maureen McCormick (she played Marsha Brady) -Chasm City (Revelation Space) Alastair Reynolds -At Home: A Short History of…

Flowers at this point wold be much too creepy. Talk to her first, get to know her. After a while, ask her out for coffee if it feels right. Proceed from there. Don't rush.

What advice would you give your daughter if she was in the same situation?

Today it feels like Forrest Gump.

Metro: 1. I like "You've got Mail". 2. I do most of the cooking in my house. 3. I don't really follow team sports. 4. I like wine more than beer. 5. I'm a good listener. Butch: 1. I teach karate, and worked out with Navy SEALS. 2. I am good at plumbing, electrical work, and construction. 3. I'm a good father. 4. I love the…

My style is very traditional, and we emphasize forms. We try to make our moves reflexive, building muscle memory by practicing forms over and over. My style only has 8 forms, but they encompass every block, kick, and strike that is formally in the style, and they incorporate combinations. What I mean by this is a…

Looks are noticed first, then personality. High intelligence isn't required, as long as she's not as dumb as a stump. Sincerity, compassion, sense of humor, and confidence are very important.

I cannot watch Hayden Christensen without thinking he can't act. He's probably a nice guy and all, but I just can't connect. Regarding Nicolas Cage, we all love him in our house. Sure, he's not brilliant, but he's unique, and his movies are usually fun to watch. I think he just picks bad movies sometimes.

OK, here's some of my favorites: Aliens (quite possibly the BEST scifi action film ever made). Army of Darkness (hilarious, and it stars Bruce Campbell) The Matrix Iron Man The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Gran Torino Home Alone The Fifth Element Live Free or Die Hard Galaxy Quest Pulp Fiction 40 Year Old Virgin Kill Bill,…

I have an Android tablet, an iPad2, and an iPod Touch. I always go to the iPad2. The Touch is too small. The Android's interface isn't as polished as the iPad.

Karate class, pizza, and watching Jaws with my family.

Iron underwear, my good man. Iron underwear...
