(no subject)

The sanssouci Survey:

What is your mental age? I bounce between 25, 33, and 198
Tuck or no tuck? Tuck at the beginning of the night. Usually pretty untucked by the end.
What is your favorite disco anthem? Blondie - Call Me, Heart of Glass, any of her disco stuff right before she tried to go legit.
In your opinion, who is the most overrated celebrity today? Music: Moby (I can't stand the pretentious fluffy bastard) Cinema: Leonardo diCaprio
What dance step have you perfected? The "Two Left Foot Spasm"
If you were a film director, who would you be? Tim Burton. Or maybe a mellower Paul Verhoeven.
What was your least favorite college subject? Statistics - it was either that or advanced calculus, so I picked Statistics, not knowing there was actually more calculus involved.
Elizabeth I or Elizabeth II? The original, no contest.
If you weren't Canadian, which nationality would you pick? If I weren't American, I'd probably go down under and do the Aussie thing. I like beaches and sub-tropical climates along with a lot of room.
What song are you listening to right now? Animotion - Obsession (Napster randomized)
Beatles, Rolling Stones, or The Who? Stones. Maybe some psychadelic Beatles (no 'Hold your Hand' stuff). Keep The Who to yourself.
What is the last poem you read, and when? Heinrich Heine, Lyrisches Intermezzo. A couple of days ago -- I'm kinda doing a half-assed amateur translation.
Any shows you'd like to see re-run on TV, but which probably don't have a hope in hell? Max Headroom - the show wasn't the best around, but the style was amazing - future computers with 1910 Underhills as keyboards, Hi-tech Studebakers for cars...ah, the blend of Deco and Modernity.
What colour is your hair now, and which colours has it been in the past? It's a dark brown, which is my normal color. It has been jet-black for close to ten years, but I'm out of that phase.
Guilty pleasure pop song? George Michael - Father Figure (don't laugh).
Do you have a favorite word? ubiquitous
Are you good with houseplants? Nope.
What's the best thing about your job? Recently, I'd say the travel. Though Newark, New Jersey suddenly popped up on my possible business trip list.
Favorite hockey player? Hell, what was his name...goalie for the US Hockey Olympic team, 1976...Craig? He went to my college.
Who is the first person you ever had a crush on? IRL? The first serious adult-type crush was probably a girl named Ellen in 8th grade.
Which was the best year of your life? 1992 - probably the last year I felt immortal.
If you could own one piece of art, what would it be? An original Leonardo Nierman. In his cosmic, organic stage.
What proverb or aphorism do you use most? When in Rome...
Broom or vacuum cleaner? What are they?
Do your ex's hate your guts? I'm batting about .500 with ex's
A song that you loathe to such a degree that if you never heard it again, it would be 20,000,000 years too soon: Moby - Southside
What's the next film you'll be seeing? I'm thinking the Planet of the Apes remake looks like it could be interesting - or really bad.
Who's your favorite revolutionary? Thomas Jefferson
What's the dumbest female name you can think of? Bambi (the name of the dumbest female?)
Are you sick of hearing about/from Tori Amos? I was for awhile, but I just tune it out now. I'm not exactly her target audience.

What is your most common facial expression? Bemused half-grin
Which book(s) are you embarrassed to admit you've never read? Goethe's Faust, Cervantes' Don Quixote
