1) Do you always answer your phone?
90% of the time, I do, contrary to what my brothers Dan and Dave think. I don't pick up during class or when I'm spending dedicated time with my family. Other than, I'm a regular box o' chatter. Call me up. We'll gab.

So many things I want to comment on, I can't pick just one. I think maybe I won't do this, just to mess with you :)
Done. Just for you.
Answer the phone 90% of the time! Yeah and the Star Wars holiday special was fantastic! You are living in a fantasy world man! You forgot to add Jason to that list too.
This survey is long-g-g, so I will enter my favorite Sonic drink ... the Diet Cherry Limeade to which I was introduced in Twin Falls, ID some time ago ... BP, in fact. (Before Parker, that is.)
And now, thanks to my personal efforts and phone calls, we now have Sonic and at yesterday's afternoon special of 1/2 off Happy Hours, I had one !
I will answer the toast question with a quote from a favotie book of mine: "White, wheat, pumpernickle or rye. With butter and cinnamon or just plain dry". Check out "The Brownies" sometime. The illustrations are fabulous!
Just reading, "Navy Pier Ferris Wheel" made me teary.
Please tell me that you've experienced the lamest Fun House on earth! It was the best 10 bucks the University of Utah Libraries ever spent. (Shhh! Don't tell!)
Next time you're there (and if you don't mind walking about 10 blocks) - there's an amazing Thai place on Illinois, right next to a great bookstore and The Reader offices.

My attention span only allowed me to get to number 14 - to which I noticed you answered incorrectly.
Sorry, but Idaho accents are as noticeable as Michigan accents.
