    Poll: It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the ri-i-i-i-i-ight!

    Oh yes. In Cambridge they used to frisk patrons before letting us enter the theater since they were trying to be fairly strict about the "no making a mess" rule...but toast and lighters and cards ended up finding their way inside anyhow.

    When did you realize you were old?

    When I turned 26 and realized that it put me into the "26-39" demographic. Ugh. And my first video game was Pitfall. I'm a dinosaur. :)

    Piercings

    Alas, only ears and cartilage for me, since facial piercings would not go over well in my office. I would love to get a nose or eyebrow piercing but that ship has sailed.

    Least Favorite Level

    Oh my god, years ago, that frigging Air Castle bit on Phantasy Star IV. Those Xe-A-Thoul chumps whupped me for a couple of solid weeks before I managed to get through it.

    Sweariest movie you've ever seen?

    Absolutely. I don't know how he's ever going to top Mace Fucking Windu. It makes me a little nervous because it can only go downhill from there in terms of sheer baddassery.

    Sweariest movie you've ever seen?

    So many "swear-heavy" movies are absolutely hysterical when they air on network television and have to be bleeped or dubbed over. Pulp Fiction should definitely get an honorable mention just for the "bad ************" wallet.

    If you could have one classic arcade game what would it be and why?

    Hell yes, this is mine too. I even have that craptacular tie-in pilot cartoon "Pryde of the X-Men" kicking around on VHS somewhere (Wolverine with a bad Aussie accent never fails to amuse me). bluerahjah, you have no idea how much that Gauntlet post tempts me -- in 3 weeks I'll be within...

    Vocabulary in today's youth

    I was raised in New England, so I grew up with it, but my snooty hometown doesn't have the accent that most people associate with Boston. I think I've managed to tone it down quite a bit compared to the teen years, but it still comes out every now and then. A co-worker and I like to work "wicked...

    What is your favorite book?

    For a very long time it has been "On a Pale Horse" by Piers Anthony...I try to re-read the series every couple of years. There are a lot of books I love, but for whatever reason when I first read that book 10+ years ago something stuck with me. Oh, and "The Waste Land: And Other Poems" by...

    Sweariest movie you've ever seen?

    This was the first thing that came to mind for me, but you beat me to it. I didn't realize South Park out-swore Jay and Silent Bob...that's quite an achievement!

    Favorite Guitar Hero Song/Least Favorite?

    Favorite: Free Bird (honorable mention to Carry On My Wayward Son) Least favorite: Psychobilly Freakout...this one just weirds me out for some reason

    Worst game addiction?

    I logged in heavy hours on a MUD for several years -- since I broke free of that I've been terrified of trying any of the WoW / EQ type of gaming, since I can't afford to get that sucked into a new game. I played SecondLife for about a month figuring it might be a happy medium, but it's not for me.

    Poll: Abortion a political issue?

    I have always had incredibly mixed feelings on this subject. Over the years I have had several female friends end up unexpectedly pregnant and the reasons ranged from "oh shit we used protection how did this happen?" to "well I can't take birth control pills because they make me sick and he...

    Favorite canceled TV shows

    Oh, I have another one. Liquid Television on MTV...particularly, the MTV's Oddities series. I absolutely loved The Maxx.

    Favorite Band?

    I love my Queen, Zep, and Floyd...but since I was raised listening to my brother's 80's hair band tapes, my first love will always be Aerosmith.
