What is your favourite sport?

Baseball and American football. Soccer has recently been growing on me.

Do you put you left leg in first, or right? Or do you just jump into your pants both feet first?

Right. Always right. My neurotic OCDness demands it. Same deal for shoes. :-P

What was the best advice ever given to you?

"Don't grow up too fast." I can't remember who told me that, but I took it to heart. If life wants me so bad, it's gonna have to drag me along, kicking and screaming. :-P

What was your favourite Galaxy moment?

Probably all of "Barbarians at the Gates." Taking part in "Breaking the Sword of Justice" was a lot of fun, and of course there was the epic "Who Wants to Live Forever" series.

Who is your favourite character on the Galaxy?

Mine, of course. :-P Victor Krieghoff, Corran Rex, 8-ball Hunter, and Saul Bental also top my list.

What activities do you enjoy most?

I enjoy playing baseball and football, though the former moreso than the latter. Obviously I enjoy writing and roleplaying. I enjoy music, but it's not a huge obsession like it is for so many others--I don't even have a very big CD collection. I'm big into video games, especially RPGs; BioWare owns my soul.

Aside from various sim-related writings being posted on the net? Nope. Someday, though...hopefully.

Ever met any Star Trek or Science Fiction celebrities?

None, I'm afraid.

What is your claim to fame?

Um...well, I was a contestant in the Alaska State Spelling Bee when I was in sixth grade...uh...

Yeah, I've got nothin'.

What is your first memory of Star Trek?

Seeing "The Best of Both Worlds" when it first aired. I was just a kid at the time, but back then I thought it was one of the coolest things ever.

What other sim groups have you been a part of?

Quite a few (mostly Star Wars and Star Trek-related groups), though NHS is the only PBEM group I've been in.

What hobbies do you enjoy?

Um...is this a trick question? *looks back up at Activities*

Anything else you want to share?

No! Now quit bugging me! Wait, this was voluntary? Damn!
