Friday Fresh Cheddar
Time for some more fresh

But before we get to the questions, what's your cheese rating? By way of Jim's Snooze Button Dreams I happened to learn what my Cheese Rating is. Johnny Huh equals Cheddar. I knew it before and am substantially validated now. And now, on with the show. (By the way, Johnny Huh?, as I usually sign my name online, comes up as parmesan which is cool as I'm huge fan of Reggiano Parmeseano, the best parmesean of all time).

1. What is your ugliest moment?
I had some pretty ugly moments after my last breakup. The screaming argument out in the street, her calling my a dick, me calling her an alcoholic whore (true or not, it wasn't a nice thing to say).

2. Are people more likely to try and take advantage of someone outside their ethnicity?
I think so but I don't think its by that much. People take advantage of others if its their nature to do so but I think that its a little easier to rationalize and justify if the recepient of the screw isn't the same as you are.

3. Do you have links on your blog that are linked back? How does that make you feel (and I'm not really talking about the A-list bloggers)?
It bothers me actually. If its someone I've read for a long time and know reads me then yeah, why wouldn't you link to me if I'm linked to you. Its a broken gift exchange and I become likely to drop the link or remove it from the front page.
The same goes for people who have zero links on their blogs. What's up with that?

4. Is it better to lead with bad news followed by good or the other way around? Why?
I lead with bad so that its iced over by the good news last. Its always easier to move from bad to good and it leaves the person with the good news foremost in their minds.

5. What was your worst injury?
Most painful? Gotta be the motorcycle accident in South Africa. Longest healing time? Broken ankle in Arizona that took three operations over a year and a half, six pins and plate to repair.

6. What's your secret talent or skill?
I can whistle blowing out and sucking air back in which means that I can whistle almost constantly. I lose a little range during the inhale notes but none of the volume. I figured out once that I could whistle at least four different ways. And I've even had a word invented for my whistling, whistl-oke (as in karaoke).
