I can feel the anticipation!

I was tagged by Dennett to answer these eleven questions of her choosing. Since I typically give Dennet a lot of grief in my responses, I figured I should take a shot at compliance and politeness. And perhaps earn a little goodwill.

But beware. I will be asking my own questions at the end.

Here are Dennet’s questions and my answers:

If you could change your first name, what name would you choose?

Phineas. Is there a finer name? I think not.

If you could live in a country other than where you are now, where would you live, and why?

Scotland. So I could wear kilts on special occasions. And find a decent bagpipe player for my band.

If you could have a kind of pet that you’ve never had before, what pet would you choose and why?

One that doesn’t poop. I think the reason is obvious.

It’s going to rain all day, how will you spend your time?

If I am off work, and my wife is not home, and I don’t have any chores to do, I would probably make music or write. And maybe watch a movie or TV show. Or take a nap. Probably, all of the above.
