Fine. I'll ask you something original this time. What is your favorite old school video game, and your favorite up-to-date video game?

Old school...Mail Order Monsters for the Commodore 64.
Unless we're talking arcade, then I might say the old stand-up Return of the Jedi game.

Ask me anything

So, i'll do the same thing you did to me: what is your honest opinion of me?

Right now, unoriginal ;p In general, I think you need to find some better concept of yourself. There are times when I think you do things not because you like or are interested in them, but because you think people you admire are interested in them and you want to, for lack of better term, impress them. I think you're a relatively intelligent guy and you seem to have a good heart, I'd just like to see you work towards a more realistic goal for yourself. Sort of evolve into a more defined person.

Ask me anything

If someone were to ask you what fictional character (ex: someone from comics or sci-fi or the like) I remind you of , or makes you think of me, who would you pick?

Wait..you asked me two questions, both are questions that I'd sent to you. So, right now, you remind me of those creatures from the movie Mimic who just copy people.

Ask me anything

Name your guilty pleasure movie. You love it but have a hard time admitting it to people.

Hmmm...I've always been pretty okay with being vocal about any movies I like. I don't really have a hard time doing so. I'll say the one I could aways bring up is Moulin Rouge, and only to tell people that not only do I love that movie, but also that every viewing will inevitably end with me sobbing.

Ask me anything

Name an album (or three) you could listen to start to finish, three times in a row, without getting sick of it. Why, if you care to elaborate.

Hum - Downward is Heavenward; It's just an incredible album. Dinosaur Jr. - Green Mind: It's been one of those albums that's always with me. Gorillaz - Demon Days; gotta get my groove on.

Ask me anything

You get to be a superhero (or at least a mutant) for a week. You get to choose your powers. The catch is that you get a different power each day of the week. What 7 powers do you choose, in what order, and why?

1) Flight to see the world as best I can. 2)Breathe underwater and explore the ocean. 3)Telepathy, just to get a grasp on what people are thinking 4)Super-Intelligence, to make sense of the things I learned with telepathy and also create some awesome shit (hello Tardis). 5) Weather-Control (a'la Storm) to give rain to the places that need it and stop where the floods are doing damage. 6)Invisibility just because I think it would be neat. 7)Invulnerability - Use my last day to kick some ass where it needs kicking.

Ask me anything

What irrational fear do you have? Like you know ridiculous but you can't stop being afraid of it.

Hmm...I answered this one a bit ago. But my irrational fear is Nuclear war. The bombs being dropped. Maybe it's from growing up during that part of the cold war or movies like 'Miracle Mile'.

Ask me anything

You have a round trip ticket to anyplace, anytime in the future. You have a two hour window of opportunity. The only thing you can bring back is whatever you write on a time-proof notepad you are given before the trip. What do you do?

I would stand on the cliffs next to the GWB because I'm pretty sure they're not going anywhere or being built upon. Then I would travel 500 years in the future and see what NYC looks like, then head home to see what my neighborhood looks like, then look up myself to see if I did anything important and take a note of some small, regular future device to patent when I come back.

Ask me anything

You have to change one thing about yourself - anything from physical look to personality quirk to taste in food - what would you change? Remember: you HAVE to change it, and it's only ONE thing.

I'd like to have good teeth. Hahaha

Ask me anything

Okay, you're traveling back in time to talk to your 6 year old self. Oops, you went back too far. You meet your parents shortly before you're born. What do you say?

Stay together for my sake. If you can't do that, just stay in touch and share custody, I'll really need both of you and what's going to happen in my life later would be better avoided. However, please, move north, I don't want to grow up in Florida, I assure you of that. I need mountains and punk rock.

Using only 3 words, describe your best sexual encounter.

slow, sensual, explosive

Ask me anything

Okay, I'll bite on the meme, albeit, with a modicum of fear: (if you're brave you'll send this to all your followers) : whats your honest opinion of me? :)

You're the bees knees! No really, you're pretty awesome, I immediately have an increased respect for anyone who speaks more than one language. You seem to have a pretty positive outlook on life too and that's too much of a rarity nowadays so, again, something that I admire.

Ask me anything

If you could relive any experience of your life, bringing with you the knowledge you have now, what would you choose?

The four years from 18-22 when I was pretty much homeless and just went where the wind took me. If I knew then what I know now, I'd have done a lot more with that time and been less afraid to take bigger chances.

Ask me anything

Ok, right back at ya. You're sick as a dog and running a fever so you're home for the day and holed up on the couch. What 3 movies are you watching and what is your favorite "sick day" comfort food?

Ghidorah - the 3 Headed Monster, the Green Slime and Logan's Run. Honestly, those have been amongst my 10 favorite movies to lay on the couch and watch while sick since I was just a wee lad. As for my sick day comfort food, when ever I was sick at home as a kid, watching those movies, my mom would invariably bring home a Whopper meal from Burger King with both fries and onion rings. It's one of those things I've sort of held on to. Maybe, subconsciously, when I'm sick, I revert to 8 yr old me.

Ask me anything

When did you first know you had to be part of Rocky?

The "origin story" of how I started Rocky is up on my profile on the rockypedia.org page. But to sum it up, I'm a ham, and here was easy access to an audience of my peers to entertain every weekend.

Other than Sarah Jane, who's been your favorite of the doctor's companions?

I absolutely loved Donna. She should have had a much longer run. Martha was awful, they should have let Donna travel with the doctor from Runaway Bride til the end.
