why do i get the feeling that punky's blog is nothing more than a pre-screening survey used to select the small group of people that will be secreted away in the government's super-top secret survival bunker so that we can re-poplulate the earth after it's hit by a giant comet or asteroid or hemorrhoid or whatever? so punky, how am i doing? am i making the cut?
1. 6'3" remember, you'll need tall people to change light bulbs, grab stuff off of high shelves, etc.
2. lee. as in "Robert Lee Carson, III." named after my father and grandfather, respectively. my grandfather was named after General Robert E. Lee. his grandfather surrended at appomatox courthourse with Lee. it might be nice to have some people around after the destruction who remember bits of history and our connection to it.
3. i prefer non-shedding, hypo-allergenic breeds like poodles, shitz zhu and llhasa apsos, but i am comfortable around larger working dogs. and remember, the standard poodle actually started off as a german hunting dog (it's not really french).
4. i make a mean meat lasagna on special occassions.
5. the exorcist (but the legend of boggy creek (about a bigfoot creature in arkansas) also freaked me out).
6. if instructed to do so i will. what about at 12:34, anything happen then? incidentally, this morning was 01:02:03:04:05:06 if you were paying attention (that's 1:02:03 a.m., april 5, 2006. it won't occur until may 4, 2006 in europe. see, you need me because i pay attention to interesting details.
7. halloween, but i'm really judging on the basis of the slightly warmer fuzzy that the peanuts halloween television special (it's the great pumpkin charlie brown) gives me. christmas is an important religious event, but as a cultural holiday i think it may be getting out of hand.
8. tell the truth.
9. no, but i am willing to learn. decent when it comes to snorkeling.
10. yes. plus, i had to pass a swim test to graduate from college.
1. 6'2" unless I'm in heels that evening.
2. Michael...although it has been "Mud" a few times.
3. Collie or boxer. BTW, Punky, my friends have one of those polar bear looking Great Pyrenees....I swear a person could ride her.
4. The braciole my dad makes.
5. Serpent and the Rainbow.
6. No, I had never heard of it, but I know I will probably start now.
7. Thanksgiving
8. Truth, but I will try to phrase it in a way that isn't hurtful.

10. Absolutely. I was a Water Survival Instructor once apon a time.
1. 5'10.5"
2. Ronald (don't laugh!)
3. I guess schnausers are cool... not really a dog person though.
4. Steak, homemade mashed taters (or loaded baked potato), corn on the cob, salad w/buttermilk ranch, milk and homemade chocolate chip cookies
5. What About Bob

7. Despite the increasing commercial stink, I'm still gonna go with Christmas. Easter is close behind.
8. I don't have enough fashion sense to recognize a bad haircut
9. nope

The most disturbing movie I have ever seen is SEVEN.

7. Thanksgiving; last year it fell on my birthday and it's always close
8. I try and be diplomatic, generally, and say "it's fine" or "it's OK" even if it isn't.
9. SCUBA certified? No, but someday.
10. No. I can swim but haven't in many years. I can swim and stay afloat but I wouldn't call myself a strong swimmer.
And I'm not even "Already Gone".
And I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind from wondrin' what
I left behind and from worrying 'bout this wasted time

7. Halloween. I like playing dress up.
