Answer #2
As much as it would be fun to say that I am evil, I'd have to say that my alter ego would have to be. If I'm good, the alter ego is usually the opposite, right? I myself have a knack for saying exactly what I want to say to people (bad things), but to make it sound like a joke so they don't take it seriously. Its pretty funny because some people like my close friends get to see it in action and realize that I am secretly serious. My alter ego would definitely wear underwear outside of his pants and just come out and say the shit to people faces without pretention. Burning bridges!

My very first show was one of the best (top 5) and it was in 1994; Nine inch nails downward spiral tour with Marilyn Manson and the Jim Rose freakshow as openers. It was pretty damn cool, MM freaked me out since I'd never heard of him and he was half naked with a black strap-on flailing around. The freakshow was pretty sweet too, with people throwing darts in their backs, etc. I got to see the puzzle man (was in an X-files episode) eat lightbulbs and a few other crazy things. NIN was great too, they dropped a big screen down and projected what was to become the Closer video (a bunch of decaying animals and other depressing imagery).

The Best show was probably Radiohead in Boston for the OK Computer tour. The music and stage show was unparalleled. They were just awesome, and especially since we stumbled into 4th row seats. They played weird B-sides like Banana Co. and also a nice long set.

Outside of chemistry I always wanted to be a UPS driver, especially for the sexy brown uniforms and the ability to drive a doorless truck. I've always dreamed of doing a record store or being in a band, but those are pipe-dreams.

I wear boxers, though I think I didn't switch til the beginning of high school.

Favorite book....Generation X by Doug Coupland hold a soft spot in my heart because it help me transition from a depressed and angry college student to an emotionally balanced person. The book itself is pretty good, maybe not the best written thing I've ever read but since it was so important to me I'd say it was my favorite. I was pretty fucked up emotionally for a good long time thanks to failed relationships. Now I'm easy going and had adopted a nice west coast attitude even before I came out here.

Lets see, I proposed on Rachaels Birthday (its always good to condense these things so you don't have too many days to celebrate/remember). She thought she was just getting a present, but I blindfolded her and lit a bunch of candles in the living room. Brought her out, got down on the knee and let her look. It was pretty good. I had been setting it up (sitcom like) by occasionally spouting off about how I wasn't into the whole marriage idea. Trickery always gets you a good payoff.

Damn this is one beast of a post.
