Have you ever been searched by the cops?<br \/>\nYes.<\/p>\n<p>2. Do you close your eyes on roller coasters?<br \/>\nNot normally, no.<\/p>\n<p>3. When&apos;s the last time you&apos;ve been sledding?<br \/>\nAbout ten years ago.<\/p>\n<p>4. Would you rather sleep with someone else, or alone?<br \/>\nBeing single I&apos;m quite used to sleeping alone, though I have a cat that I don&apos;t mind sleeping with.<\/p>\n<p>5. Do you believe in ghosts?<br \/>\nYes.<\/p>\n<p>6. Do you consider yourself creative?<br \/>\nOnly on days ending in the letter &#8220;y.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>7. Do you think O.J. killed his wife?<br \/>\nNo doubt.<\/p>\n<p>8. Jennifer Aniston or Angelina Jolie?<br \/>\nJennifer Aniston.  Jolie has a certain skanky quality to her that&apos;s attractive, and yet completely repulsive.<\/p>\n<p>9. Do you stay friends with your ex&apos;s?<br \/>\nAll except for one.<\/p>\n<p>10. Do you know how to play poker?<br \/>\nYes.<\/p>\n<p>11. Have you ever been awake for 48 hours straight?<br \/>\nYes.  Yes I have.  The longest period I&apos;ve been awake is about fifty-five hours.<\/p>\n<p>12. What&apos;s your favorite commercial?<br \/>\nPeople have favorite commercials?<\/p>\n<p>13. What are you allergic to?<br \/>\nCashews.<\/p>\n<p>14. If you&apos;re driving in the middle of the night, and no one is around do you run red lights?<br \/>\nNot normally, no, but I have.<\/p>\n<p>15. Do you have a secret that no one knows but you?<br \/>\nYes.  I&apos;m like an El-Aurian at times.<\/p>\n<p>16. Boston Red Sox or New York Yankees?<br \/>\nI&apos;m really quite indifferent.  Cubs and White Sox?  No question, though&#8211;Cubs all the way.  As Mayor Daley of Chicago said last year, &#8220;Chicago is a Cubs town.&#8221;  I lived in Chicago as a kid, and I learned my love of the Cubs at an early age.  Through failure and failure and and failure and success and failure yet again, love of the Cubs is a constant.<\/p>\n<p>17. Have you ever been Ice Skating?<br \/>\nYes.<\/p>\n<p>18. How often do you remember your dreams?<br \/>\nIt&apos;s quite rare.  Though I did have that bizarre dream recently about Emily Deschanel.<\/p>\n<p>19. When was the last time you laughed so hard you cried?<br \/>\nIt was within the last month, though I can&apos;t recall the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>20. Can you name 5 songs by The Beatles?<br \/>\nYes.  I can also name 5 solo Beatles songs, from each Beatle. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>21. What&apos;s the one thing on your mind now?<br \/>\nWhether or not my laundry&apos;s done.<\/p>\n<p>22. Do you know who Ghetto-ass barbie is?<br \/>\nMattel makes a ghetto Barbie?  I had no idea&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>23. Do you always wear your seat belt?<br \/>\nDamn straight.<\/p>\n<p>24. What cell service do you use?<br \/>\nCingular.<\/p>\n<p>25. Do you like Sushi?<br \/>\nI&apos;ve never had sushi.<\/p>\n<p>26. Have you ever narrowly avoided a fatal accident?<br \/>\nYes.  Though one still haunts me, eight years on.  (Yes, that phrasing means there&apos;s been more than one.  I think I have the teela gene at times.)<\/p>\n<p>27. What do you wear to bed?<br \/>\nTee-shirt and shorts.<\/p>\n<p>28. Been caught stealing?<br \/>\nNo.  Again, the teela gene.<\/p>\n<p>29. What shoe size do you have?<br \/>\nI wear size 11.<\/p>\n<p>30. Do you truly hate anyone?<br \/>\nActually, yes.<\/p>\n<p>31. Classic Rock or Rap?<br \/>\nYou mean I have to choose?  Well, okay.  Classic rock.<\/p>\n<p>32. If you could sleep with one famous person, who would it be?<br \/>\nRachel Weisz.<\/p>\n<p>33. Favorite Song?<br \/>\n&#8220;Here Comes the Sun,&#8221; by the Beatles.<\/p>\n<p>34. Have you ever sang in front of the mirror?<br \/>\nYes, and many mornings while shaving.<\/p>\n<p>35. What food do you find disgusting?<br \/>\nBrussel sprouts, followed closely by mushrooms.  I can&apos;t stand either.<\/p>\n<p>36. Do you sing in the shower?<br \/>\nIt happens on occasion.<\/p>\n<p>37. Have you ever made fun of your friends behind their back?<br \/>\nNot something I&apos;d normally do, but it has happened.<\/p>\n<p>38. Have you ever stood up for someone you hardly knew?<br \/>\nMore times than I could count.  I&apos;m like that.<\/p>\n<p>39. Have you ever been punched in the face?<br \/>\nYes.<br \/>\n<\/lj-cut><br \/>\nThere!  Probably more than you ever wanted to know. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Borrowed from Keith, 39 questions! 1. Have you ever been searched by the cops? Yes. 2.
