Spring Break starts tomorrow -- ask me anything

[nickgutierrez]

[bigwillq]

1. Where ya going?

An easy one to start off.

[nickgutierrez]

3. Back home

Naples, FL

[bigwillq]

5. Are you flying or driving? n/t

[nickgutierrez]

8. Flying

Out of O'Hare at 1:00 or something like that.

[bigwillq]

11. Have you ever used the puke bag

on an airplane?

[nickgutierrez]

13. Surprisingly, no

My stomach is horrible, but I've never had a mishap on a plane.

I have, however, had an episode of "explosive diarrhea" on a plane -- the lavatories came in handy for me, if not anybody else on the plane.

[bigwillq]

15. Was it the food? (nt)

[nickgutierrez]

16. Probably not

All I had was a bag of peanuts while on the plane. :shrug:

It was probably what I had before the flight, though, as I thought my stomach would explode as soon as the plane got into the air.

[bigwillq]

18. Where were you heading too on this

'explosive' trip?

[nickgutierrez]

20. Same general location as this trip, actually

From Chicago to Florida -- then, Ft. Myers, now Ft. Lauderdale or thereabouts.

[bigwillq]

22. What's your favorite baseball team? (nt)

[nickgutierrez]

25. Yankees fan since I could think

Picked up a Marlins hat in 1993, and they've been my teams since. I was happy this past October :).

[bigwillq]

26. Yankee fan here too

Hey, you couldn't lose in October. Who do you think will win the Series this year?

[nickgutierrez]

28. Oakland

If anybody in the league has a chance to go 1998 Yanks on the league, it's the A's. Their offense isn't as bad as they were last year, and the pitching staff can only be better now that they no longer have the Black Hole of Losses as their collective #5 starter (not that W-L record for a pitcher means that much).

[bigwillq]

30. Who will win the NCAA men's basketball tourney? (nt)

[nickgutierrez]

31. Not my game :)

I can't really say.

[bigwillq]

32. Who will win the Masters? (nt)

[nickgutierrez]

33. Same answer

Probably Tiger.

[bigwillq]

34. Any other sports besides baseball that you like? (nt)

[nickgutierrez]

35. I used to be a football fan

But I think the NFL is boring now. The salary cap ruined that sport, sadly. Baseball is the only sport I follow seriously now.

[bigwillq]

36. I think high salaries have ruined all of professional sports

That's why I love college basketball and football.


Who wins the presidential election?

[nickgutierrez]

37. Kerry, of course n/t

[bigwillq]

38. Just checking

What did you have for dinner?

[DS1]

2. Mine just ended, I splurged and took today off work

Hope yours is more interesting. :shrug:

[nickgutierrez]

6. I hope so too

:)

[UrbScotty]

4. What's the weather like where you live?

[nickgutierrez]

12. You mean where I am now, or where I'm going?

Right now: 40s, a little cloudy I guess, but not bad
Where I'm going: 70s-80s, probably raining a lot.

[analogman]

7. Anything, eh?

Does the light really go off when you close the refrigerator door?

[nickgutierrez]

10. Sometimes

And sometimes it cooks the turkey for you.

[johnnie]

9. From Cleveland.....

Where the hell is my spring??

[nickgutierrez]

14. Take a left, and it's about a half a month forward.

[Kellanved]

17. how is it like at the university with most people gone?

Just asking because I got invited to an US university and am wondering how it will be like in the dorm. My understanding is that no lectures will take place during the time (in my case: first half of April) and that most students will be absent.

[nickgutierrez]

19. Depends on the school, of course

University of Chicago: silent. Or almost silent. Although I think I just heard a marching band pass by my window...

[Kellanved]

24. well, no big city outside in my case

So I'll have just one interview with the Dean and 9 days of being idle :-( .

Thanks ;-)

[nickgutierrez]

27. No problem

Maybe it'll be different in your case :).

[gyopsy]

21. going to get wasted?

My spring break was last week and I did several times. Here's hoping you get laid too.

[nickgutierrez]

23. That would be nice

Thanks. :evilgrin:
