John, Your most embarrassing moment? getting caught smoking weed in my freshman year of high school..not cool being handcuffed in front of my peers Your proudest moment? probably my mom telling me in college "me and your dad don't worry about you like we do your sister...we know you'll be fine no matter what.." Where do you see yourself in 10 years? hopefully still alive...these are my beer thoughts as i reflect at the end of the day. Ideally, i'd like to have a business open back in the motherland by then and just enjoying being my own boss
Would you consider changing your user name to: "A goldfish named Spike" are you being serious about the pick up line, "Don't you owe me money?" That's pretty hilarious
Sirron, Would you consider changing your user name to: "A goldfish named Spike" should at any point the Lakers hit 10 games above .500 next season, i'll ask Barn to change my name to 'A goldfish named Spike' for the rest of the season. deal? are you being serious about the pick up line, "Don't you owe me money?" yup...its only been used 3 times when i was really drunk but its 3 for 3 as far as getting a name and number.
Pound's Mixed Bag of 10 Q?'s... - you're set for life financially, live in a sprawling country home or a nice place in the 'burbs? - do you know a total poof? [always looks GQ, never curses, into himself yet nice, eats pizza with utensils...] - between an attention whore and a really quiet one...who would you trust? - ever been to an art gallery? - do you go to swap meets or flea markets? - do you clip coupons? - what song in your iPod would surprise your friends? - a hefty payday, future royalties and a really, really hot gal, would you do a one time porn film? - what is your best trait? - what is your worst trait? Bonus Q? - would you have the Lakers win the championship in B****n or at home?
First time I ever heard the "money" line... Clever, very clever. Not cheesy, if delivered with charm and a smile can put the gal at ease.
GC, - you're set for life financially, live in a sprawling country home or a nice place in the 'burbs? i'd love to settle down in a nice country home. Similar to what my folks have back home, nice country property with a lake in the back. - do you know a total poof? [always looks GQ, never curses, into himself yet nice, eats pizza with utensils...] we have a few at work. Salesmen mostly. As for my crew, no, I hang out with cavemen, most of them don't even use utensils when we do our grill n chill at night. we chop up the carne and they use the knife to fill their own plates up with pieces of meat and treat it like fingerfood lol. - between an attention whore and a really quiet one...who would you trust? neither. an attention whore can use your own issues to bring attention to themselves. the quiet one, silent water runs deep. - ever been to an art gallery? no, i haven't but i wouldn't mind checking it out. - do you go to swap meets or flea markets? i love going to the swap meet. i dont really buy much but i like walking around and seeing all the bargains - do you clip coupons? Carl's Jr, Jack In The Box, Baja Fresh, Taco Bell...that's what's stashed in my wallet right now - what song in your iPod would surprise your friends? from death metal to keith sweat to reggae, my playlist is all over the place. what would surprise my friends is seeing Sons Of Anarchy soundtrack songs on that playlist - a hefty payday, future royalties and a really, really hot gal, would you do a one time porn film? you only live once! - what is your best trait? my loyalty - what is your worst trait? i'm too loyal Bonus Q? - would you have the Lakers win the championship in B****n or at home? at their house!!! the site of sad bostonians exiting that wretched arena and depressingly walking to their cars, that's just icing on the cake
what are you talkin about, John? we're clinching home court by Valentines day fine...5 games above .500 and i become A Goldfish Named Spike
with a fake guess of her name which leads to getting her real name me: Rita right? girl: no, its Stephanie me: well, its nice to meet you, Stephanie... ice broken the rest is up to you
Another Round of Ten for Pound: - stairmaster, elliptical, treadmill...which one do you prefer the most? - do you often force yourself to work out even if you don’t feel like it mentally? - the funniest TV commercial that always sticks with you? - are all bottled water pretty much the same? - Bond or Bourne? - most pressure. Rank them in order. Batter on 2-3 pitch, bases loaded, down two runs, 2 out, top of the ninth. Kicker 50 yard attempt, last play of the game down two, windy conditions. At the charity stripe, down two, extend game to overtime, no ticks on the clock. - how much baby talk from your other half could you tolerate? - you have a kid...public or private school? - what is the proudest moment for you that involved your folks? - generally do you believe relatives/friends who borrow money from you that say they’ll pay you back? Additional Q? -do you squeeze every last drop out of anything? Ex: shampoo, toothpaste, Vaseline….
GC, - stairmaster, elliptical, treadmill...which one do you prefer the most? i'm a treadmill guy. i used to run around my block back in the day but that kind of punishment on the knees is too much for me now. - do you often force yourself to work out even if you don’t feel like it mentally? this only applies to the cardio aspect of my workout. lifting and other activities are a piece of cake to get into. its the running, jumping rope etc that need a kickstart here and there - the funniest TV commercial that always sticks with you? - are all bottled water pretty much the same? yea. you'll find a couple of 7-11 brand bottles in my trash can - Bond or Bourne? i'm a Bourne guy although i have yet to play hookie to catch the most recent one. - most pressure. Rank them in order. Batter on 2-3 pitch, bases loaded, down two runs, 2 out, top of the ninth. Kicker 50 yard attempt, last play of the game down two, windy conditions. At the charity stripe, down two, extend game to overtime, no ticks on the clock. oh ****...just reading these scenarios made me sweat lol. 1) 50 yarder with wind 2) FTs while an arena either anxiously watches you (home) or vehemently booing you (away). 3) full count batter - how much baby talk from your other half could you tolerate? after about 2mins, my mind goes on screensaver mode - you have a kid...public or private school? as someone who has attended both, i'd enroll my kid in private first but around 2nd or 3rd grade, the kid goes to public school and sees what the real world really looks like - what is the proudest moment for you that involved your folks? for me? seeing them both become RNs shortly after coming to the US. My pop's came here first but never fulfilled being an RN until me and my mom got here. My mom followed suit and it was a high moment for me to see them finally achieve a goal they both made when they were still in the motherland - generally do you believe relatives/friends who borrow money from you that say they’ll pay you back? honor is HUGE in my circle. loaning money is no big deal because they all have high homey credit. i dont think there's a single outstanding debt between any of the fellas right now. all borrowed money gets paid back. Additional Q? -do you squeeze every last drop out of anything? Ex: shampoo, toothpaste, Vaseline…. you should see my toothpaste right now...ive damn need rubbed the color out of that thing from trying to extract the last bit of paste. my facewash? i add water when its down to a quarter.
