My office spouse, Shannon answered these on her blog. And now I will:

I don’t even have next week planned. March?!

4. What color are your toenails usually?
Hmmm, this must be a chick quiz.

5. What was the last thing you highlighted?
My days off on the calendar at home.

6. What color are your bedroom curtains?
Wood blinds. No curtains. They never match the carpet just right.

7. What color are the seats in your car?
I sit in them, so they are usually behind me, and I’m paying attention to the road, so I’m not really sure. I think they’re dark grey.

8. Have you ever had a black and white cat?
I think when my wife gets a few more grey hairs… oh. Nevermind.

The DVD master for “The Bet.”

10. Do you know anyone who lives in Wyoming?
I hope not.

11. Why did you withdraw cash from the ATM the last time?
Just to have some cash.

12. Whose is the last baby that you held?
Mine. People don’t trust me with their spawn.

4.

14. Do you like Cinnamon toothpaste?
Never tried it, but after that whole Emeril campaign I swore off ever trying flavored toothpaste.

15. What kind of car were you driving 2 years ago?
BAT BOY. He’s MINI Cooper.

16. Pick one: Miami Hurricanes or Florida Gators?
I don’t know what this means.

17. Last time you went to Six Flags?
We went when my older son was about 4. My wife and her friend did all the cool rides. My son and I did all the kid rides. I think I had a better time than my wife.

18. Do you have any wallpaper in your house?
I have wallpaper in my garage, I think. Leftovers from the hallway set. Otherwise, fuck no.

Safekey.

22. Closest framed picture to you?
A puppy-time shot of a dog we gave away a long time ago. Behind that is a series of baby pictures of my older son, from about 10 years ago. Lord, I am really in need of some housecleaning and updating.

23. Last time you had someone cook for you?
Does fast food count? Technically it does, yes?

24. Have you ever applied for welfare?
No. And would I admit it on this damn thing if I had?

Including the exciting opportunity to enlarge my “pen!s” and to get my free Wal-Mart gift card? Between my work and personal emails, about 250.

Dan Kauppi. Oh, and my wife, heh.

This morning after cleaning the garage.

36. What color are the blinds in your living room?
Wood.

38. Last thing you read in the newspaper?
