What song do you wish would never show up on a karaoke list?
Frankly, I wish the karaoke list never showed up itself.
Do you own all the albums of any particular musical artist or group? Who?

This question is a ridiculous one for me. I'm such a completist it's sickening. If there's a rare 7" by one of my favorite bands, I'll hunt it down even though it might be crappy or I'm just not likely to listen to it. I won't even bother listing my complete or near-complete collections. But just know that if I'm into a band with more than a couple of discs, I'm probably trolling the interweb for their rare finds.

Tell us two truths and a lie about yourself.
1. I have shared the stage with the late, great Don Ho.
2. I own a Barry Bonds Rookie card, much to my dismay.
3. My short, white uncle received a gold medal in Olympic basketball.
If you could write like one fiction author, who would it be?
Submitted by Marilyn.
I'm tempted to say Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., but only if he didn't already exist, which is a reality I wouldn't like to experience. So I'll go with John Grisham or something because that would be more profitable.
What is one of your favorite poems?

Who or what do you really love?
The obvious answer, and the one that's the most true, is my wife, Heather. I've been in love with her since 7th grade (commence "awws" now).
Additional obvious answers include my family and friends. I'm also a neo-hippie hipster so I'm inclined to say that I love all of humanity.
As for stuff I love, I'd have to go with music (performing/listening/collecting/writing about/discussing), wine, photography, and Italian food. Plus TiVo. Man, I love TiVo.
Are you a morning person or a night owl?
Sadly I'm a bit of both, which means I don't get much sleep.
