Answers to the castle quiz:
1. My middle name is John. It may be after my grandfather, John T. Hobbs, although I have two Uncle Johns. John also happens to be the second most used name for English speakers. Of course, #1 is Michael. Perhaps my parents wanted me to be popular.
2. 1.The instant my daughter was born. I felt like nature had embraced me. 2.Camping on a 20 mile long deserted beach just north of Sydney Australia and realizing that I was 25, had absolutely zero responsibilities, no time frames or itineraries and I really was on an incredible adventure. The kind I had dreamed of all of my life. 3. The first time that I had celebrated Christmas as an adult. I had not done x-mas since I was three and I celebrated w/ my then girlfriend and best friend, we all lived together and we had for that moment some semblance of a happy little family.
3. One year in Europe, with an Eurail pass and no itinerary. Just bump around here and there, me, my backpack and a pad for writing.
4. Mr. McGrath, 11th and 12th grades shop teacher. He is a real genius and a real Renaissance man. This guy taught me that it’s cool to be literate and well read as well as a craftsman and a race car driver. He could build anything out of anything, he would deliver his favourite poetry from rote, he was always quoting the authors that he loved. He was and may still be the race announcer at El Cajon speedway. He also owned his own company building racecar bodies. He was a competitive kayak and canoe pilot and builder. He loved all the things that I love and he was cool. He showed what it’s like to have many interests and be great at all of them.
5. Ben and Jerry’s New York Super Fudge Chunk. Not a better ice cream made.
6. Leo Ellis, Molly, Keith Jackson (the only person I have ever picked on)
7. Fact, I saw Elvis riding one with Sasquatch and Nessie.
8. Way too big, baggy and bulgy. Easily bloodshot. Color is between brown/green or hazel with emphasis on brown. I think some people are very intrigued by them, some scared. Most girls that like me like the eyes though, until they get scared of me.
9. Mike, Mikey, Mickey toes, Kirby, Kirb, Skirb…asshole
10. Fleeting moments that last only so long, sometimes as long as a breath, when I breathe in, sigh and all is well w/ myself.
