What is your most annoying trait?

I can never really suspend my disbelief, and at the same time it's very hard for me to shut up during a movie. This combination can be so annoying, that I find it best for my friends if I just go to movies by myself.

This is definitely due to my bloodlines.

For example: after what seemed like only 2 minutes into The Sixth Sense, my mom leaned over and said, "I bet that guy from Moonlighting is actually a ghost or something."

Yea, so I'd have to say my most annoying trait is the movie thing. Either that or my ever growing, completely filthy bone collection...

Our family was washing our money through the bank there in the Yaren district back in the 70's when this crazy Albanian shot my uncle. Well, my cousin got hold of him, cut three of his fingers off, and left him tied up in the Moqua Caves. They didn't find his body for almost a year. ha.

What Top 10 List are you most qualified to compile for 2006?

Sadly enough, I am very well qualified to rank the top 10 best songs used by The Weather Channel's Local Weather on the 8's. I know some people might be a bit shocked to see nothing by Mark Krunowski or Nestor Torres on the list. Yea, they're not bad, just not my favorites. Also, why didn't they play any Thelonius Monk last year? Let's hope they fix that little problem in '07.

10. Armik song: Pure Paradise
9. Fred Gross song: Sunrise
8. Ryan Farish song: Miles Away
7. Craig Chaquico song: Accoustic Highway
6. Sly and the Family Stone song: You�re the One
5. Yellojackets song: Revelation
4. Ryan Farish song: Shine
3. Bernie Williams song: Enter the Bond (this one cracks me up)
2.Ryan Farish song: We Are Free
