answers halfpenny questions. if anyone wants to ask me some more...comment. or if you want me to ask you, comment...
So first big question, what was it like to have that “kind” of romantic encounter, not the details of the act itself, but the after effects, do you feel, act, and/or think differently?
-i know what you are talking about, but if you think im going to talk about this in a public forum you are crazy. im not going to incriminate myself. talk to me in private. -oh and im glad you too could ::finally:: have your own type of experice with your own special ::little friend::.
Why do you think you never succeeded at Rose in an Academic sense?
-mostly because i didn't want to. the mind has tremendous power. i didn't want to stay at rose from my freshman year, i enjoyed everything else but the classes. i was too greedy to pursue an academic career which would be productive towards my life. do i regret it? no. i learned more about life than classes could teach me while at rose. so what if i pushed back working after i get out of college for a few years--i'll be doing that the rest of my life. why not enjoy being young for a while if i can? to be honest, i was down right miserable when i came to classes. hated them. one of the happiest days that i can remember is the day this spring when i actually decided to transfer. i remember i was doing some homework-and i just stopped and asked myself why i was doing something that i did not want to do. i couldn't find an answer. one thing that really helped (which it was a little thing that you wouldn't ordinarly thing matters) was when i was sitting in on a signiture that brent was giving to an associate. he was asking what the frosh wanted to do with his life, saying to follow his passion and to be sure what he was doing with his life was what he wanted to do--that is doesn't make sense to do anything else. i thought about that for a while, and it rang true. i guess it was a combination of things though. to top that off, i was having problems with my brain medication that put me into a deep depression over this past year. no one knew and i guess i did a good job at covering it up, but it was bad. (ps i got new medication and fixed the problem) and it was cyclic. the worse i did in class/on exams the less i wanted to do well.
Two part’er. First if you had to be trapped on a deserted island with one pike who would it be and why. Second, same question but it had to be a girl. Keep in mind food and necessary resources are easily available, but there’s a snow balls chance in hell of being rescued.
-first part: a pike. well since you put stipulations on it that i wouldn't be rescued...i hate you...ok, not really. i was going to pick someone smart to devise a plan to get me off the island, but since i can't leave i think what you are asking is who would i want to (and be able to) live the rest of my life (or a 3 hour tour) with if it were only a pike. probably tappy because if that snow ball's chance in hell happened to be a plane..he could fly out....ok seriously....well i first thought someone that i know i wouldn't get pissed at easily and someone with whom i could have indepth conversations. i thought of covele, you, or homan. but actually i decided that i would want to be on the damn island with my little brother. despite my original desire of being closer to my little than voll and i are, it never happened--now its too late and im leaving (ok so im already gone). i picked kowski as a little for his character (yeah, believe it or not ;) ). I know that there is a lot to that guys life that i feel i could help with, but yeah i suck as a big bro. hopefully, i can get to know him as we get older, but not actually on a desert island.
-second part: a girl. so many directions i could take this one. some hot super model that i had sex with all the time? well honestly, i would get bored with that. im probably the only guy in the world that would say that, but its true. i absolutely cannot stand ditsy women (see a copule of posts ago). again you are asking who i would want to spend my life with, so i would want to spend the time with a girl that i could converse with (to give more of a variety of activities than a super model) and be easy on the eyes (props to brent for saying that were not bastards because a guy wants an attractive girl). a girl that is open and honest and doesn't give PMS as an excuse to be a bitch. she's probably going to have to be a republican, too. hehe. conclusively: barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen....ok just joking.
What is the funniest experience you’ve had as a result of being color blind?
-funny, eh? i could give you some sad and depressing stories...like how it seriously limits job opportunities...or how everytime someone finds out i'm color blind they always look around-find something green or red and ask what color it is....ok but funny story...thinking...thinking...well there are a couple. to be funny i guess i it must be a story where i make fun of myself and laugh at my own expense, which i am comfortable to do easily. :)
one memory that sticks out is when i had this picture of a hot girl in a santa hat on my computer background for christmas. I put the actual picture and then i put the picture through a filter to show what I see. (just look at it) I had to explain it to a lot of people when they saw my computer. I was explaining to someone and they were completely confused. I tried explaining it again, but they didn't understand. I was confused. They kept saying that the two pictures were the same. I busted out this program that tells what color things are when you run the mouse over it. It said they were the same color too. I was confused. Then **EDIT: big** george told me that he had found my computer unlocked earlier and replaced my background with a picture of the girl twice. I never even noticed. It was funny. Apparently people think what I see as skin color looks like a zombie. Evidently I see hot girls as zombies.
Now microsoft is putting this colorblind program that I talked about into the accessibiilty features into the next build of windows because of me. I rock..(and bander b/c of his connections at Microsoft).
Where do you want to be in your life in ten years?
-oh, the original question that everyone asks. albeit a good question. one must keep long-term goals in perspective i suppose. hmm 31 years old..? well for a long time i thought i wanted to go some place warm, but as sad as it sounds i think i would miss the midwest. so eventually i actually want that wife, 2.5 kids, a dog, and the white picket fence. i want a fairly humble life, nothing extravagant, yet nothing mediocre. a fairly secure job that i enjoy an look foward to spend 8 hours or so a day doing and where i have plenty of room for advancement. yes, im assuming that i can finally get out of school in 10 years. actually probably 4 years or so for undergrad & grad, then a couple of years for peace corps (ive wanted to do since h.s.), leaves me only a couple of years back here to build a life. kinda scary, i'll be old--but i'll be mature enough that i will be fairly set in my ways as a person. A lot of ppl get married young and sadly get a divorce. My parents did that, and i dont want that to happen, so i will be very cautious before i marry. so honestly, 10 years: although it may seem like a long time, i can almost bet that i won't be married; i'll have a j-o-b; and hopefully a nice house with a few acres; and a weimaraner and a leopard gecko. i also want to be an active alumni of pike-maybe not our chapter, but involved wherever i go.

Actually it was I, Big George, who changed the picture, thanks for remembering. And it was Ranger who got confused, and I remember you asking him "Wait, are you colorblind too?" and he said "No - I don't think so - Maybe."

Apparently while your dysfunction is color-blindness, George's is a complete lack of short-term memory. One comment will do, bud! Ha ha ha. And before you respond, yes, I'm sure it was just a mistake. Good answers. I'll probably throw five your way tomorrow.

Okay, five more questions to waste your time. Many of these have conditions attached to them because I already know a lot about you, and I want you to avoid answering them in ways that I already know about.
1. I often question the point of allying oneself with a political party. Under what circumstances would you vote for a Democrat for president?
2. What did you do during most of your free time freshman year? I barely remember seeing you unless I went straight into your room.
3. Do you think your life would be different if not for the "cow incident"? I know you take medication, but besides migraines, what else do you think would be different?
4. There are two times in your life when I'm sure you were scared: the cow thing, and the migraine attack during Greek Conference two springs ago. Besides these, at what point in your life were you the most scared, and how do these two events I mentioned rank relative to this one?
5. Are you planning on hanging out with the Purdue Pikes on any kind of regular basis? Why or why not?

Kenny, please give your future leopard gecko a cool name. Thanks.
P.S. Hope you're feeling better...104 is not a good temperature.

Actually Brent, I left the comment then clicked on another link, then clicked the back button and the internet went all postdata on my ass and reposted the comment. So Kenny's blog has the lack of a short term memory. Probably because I assaulted its wife in the bathroom (movie reference, I'm not creepy).
