1. Do you play any sports? No. I'd love to get into an amateur baseball laegue, but haven't the time.
2. Do you exercise on a regular basis? My job is quite physical. I get a good workout there.
3. Name one person that raises your blood pressure: Ann Coulter.
4. You need to go up two floors in a building: do you use the stairs or the elevator? Stairs.
5. One thing that makes you go "Hmmmmm"? People who drive while chatting on cells, eating, applying make up, whatever. Pay attention to the couple of tons of metal you are manuvering!

Date: 5 Aug 2005 18:02 (UTC)i have a lot of love and respect for my car, but she doesn't have the intelligence to stay in her own lane if i take my hands off of the wheel.
one reason that driving in the bay area give me the willies is that more people driving there are distracted, and they make stupid driving mistakes. here in sacramento the people are all rushing around trying to speed to the next destination and they make stupid driving mistakes. both tendencies are deadly, but the bay area trend scares me more--people who are paying attention to things other than the road are more likely to hit you. "i didn't see her in that lane," is no excuse for ramming me.

Re: #2... Depends if I'm in an office highrise or not. If all the stairwells are open then ya, stairs. But in my office building only every 5th floor is accessible from the stairs so the elevator is the only option.

In her book "Slander" she made the odd claim that the New York Times didn't cover Dale Earnhardt's death at the Daytona 500 until several days after the event. When confronted on air with a copy of the Times from the day after Daytona with the Earnhardt story on the front page, she continued to demand her version of the story was the factual one!
since you asked.....
