hi james lipton!
: 1) for those of you who are fans, or used to be fans, of the price is right....
: What is your favorite Price is Right Game? ** in my opinion, there are only 2 right answers here**
i like the one where bob barker beats up adam sandler. and adam sandler head butts bob barker. and then bob barker pounds adam sandler some more.
: 2) when hanging toilet paper on the roll, does it matter which way it hangs? so that the sheets fold over the top toward you, or from behind and down?
over the top toward you, definitely always over the top. i've been known to redo it when i find it the other way. although never at someone else's house, i don't think. except at steve and cari's, possibly, when we lived there all together like people do sometimes.
: 3) favorite sound?
some of the sounds i've heard on Autechre cds would be my favorites, or things i've heard on philip glass cds. generally either symphonic sounds or electronic sounds in repeated patterns. its the pattern underneath it that i think i like the best, the sound isn't necessarily secondary though, its really got to be a marriage. also the sound of some cranes i've heard recently are really really cool. and of course whale song. ok, so i can't decide. but there are a lot of cool sounds in the world. i guess if i had to pick one, i'd go with the sound those cranes were making as they chased each other around the lake the other morning. wow that was so perfectly haunting, even better than whale song.
: 4) least favorite sound?
that whole nails on chalkboard thing, or anything that sounds like that. or really loud feedback.
: 5) favorite word?
cerulean, or possibly darkling. blue is an awfully nice word, and so is sea. o i know, it might have to be deep. that is a real good word. i love things that are dark and blue and deep, like the space inside the cold cold sea. if i could live there i would.
: 6) least favorite word?
i'm really trying to think, but i'm not sure there are any words i don't like. i love words, i might love them all equally. its a tough question. words are containers for meaning. they are kind of agnostic in a way, they are all just what they are. containers, yeah. well some words do evoke immediately in me certain thoughts that are very pleasant. i can immediately feel some immense beauty containing me and containing everything i can ever know or imagine when i think of them. like a few of the words mentioned above. about the only words i can think of that would bring me something i do not like much would be, sadly, the names of some people who have caused me a lot of pain. ouch!
: 7) favorite cuss word?
OH MY GOOSH! this is a newly adopted exclamatory phrase, i like it, i think. then again, i might never ever say it or type it ever again.
: and i'll leave on this one....
: 8) what would you like God to say to you when you get to heaven????
"don't worry, you can leave that at the door."
