[Hostile]

1. What piece of advice do you have for your boss? I am my boss. My advice to myself is have a blast doing it no matter what it is.

2. What do you forget to do more often than anything else? Time. I have no concept of it. I wear a watch with a date on it for a reason. If I am filling out a form that asks for the date I do not know it. I rarely remember what day it is without looking at the watch. If the forms I am filling out ask for the date more than once I have to look at the watch each and every time to make sure I have the date right.

3. What is one event that many people consider entertaining that you personally would have a very difficult time sitting through from beginning to end? A soccer match. In fact, I wouldn't do it.

4. If you were a contestant on a trivia-style game show, what category would you most want to see displayed when it came down to the million-dollar question? Football.

5. Plans for the weekend? A friend of mine named Bill died last month. I am going to be packing up the things his family wants shipped to Chicago, donating things to charities they deem worthy, and selling the things they want sold so the money can pay for his wife's care. Church and football on Sunday.

I can't say that I have a vast knowledge of anything in particular, but at this moment, I probably would take a question about my daughter's favorite TV show, Caillou. I certainly see enough of it. :

Why were you shooting that XM25 the other day for? :laugh2:

 

[casmith07]

Also, to caveat my one answer - I can't really watch MMA. Just don't find it entertaining, but the history and storied past of boxing is something that I can appreciate, especially the usually blue-collar work ethic and background of the fighters.

The Arturo Gatti vs. Mickey Ward trilogy was a collection of three of the greatest bouts of all time.
