I've had many. More than some people would have in their whole lives. Woody is my main non-SKMB one.

Do you have any personal superstitions or quirks? I despise powerpoints turned on, but with nothing plugged in. One I went around the library, turning off all the unused power switches I could see. I was rather late to class.

Would you rather trade intelligence for looks or looks for intelligence? I'm keeping my intelligence. I'm nothing without it.

I have to say, in seeing how much "Mexican" is mentioned, there's such a Latin influence in these here parts that I don't even consider Mexican to be foreign food. I make burritos, enchiladas, tostadas, tacos, and chili (which is really more Southwestern) all the time, not to mention variations of it: Mexican lasagna, Mexican pizza. Olé!
