How do you feel about the guy chosen to oversee the IRS and the Treasury department supposedly mistakenly didn't pay over 30k in taxes from various years in the past?
They aren't bad, I mean, I'll listen to them over anything rap...but its also a bit hard for my liking.

It disgusts me not only two Senators had the guts to question him on it, and only 5 had the guts to vote against his confirmation in committee, but also that Barack Obama did not withdrawl the nomination as soon as the news broke and once again referred to it as an "honest mistake," days after the news broke that Mr.Geithner received a letter once a year for 4 years asking him to pay. Didn't take long for our president of change to lie to us, eh?
Do you and your Mrs. have a song, or what you both call 'our song'? If you do, what is it and was it played at your wedding?
Sort of. We sing Twist and Shout all the time as sort of an inside joke. On our second or third date (can't re-call which, guess I'm getting old and I can't ask her as she'd beat me ) she was sad because her cat back at home died. So I took her to a party to cheer her up and it had karaoke...and I shamelessly ripped off the Ferris Bueller scene. Keep in mind, I hate singing and have a horrible voice...so, I asked her if she'd seen anything good today. She thought I was being a dick until I went up on the stage, commandeered the microphone out of turn, put on Twist and Shout, and made an ass of myself. She'd call it our song. I'd call it one of my most embarrassing moments.
Anyhow, yes it was played at our wedding, but it wasn't our first dance as it was too fast. Our first dance was Aerosmith's Don't Want to Miss a Thing.
Name 5 events in your life that you can say were your 'happiest events'.
My Wedding and Claire's birth would be one and two but in no particular order (though they trump everything else). I suppose the rest are...
3) The day I graduated college
4) The day I officially took control of the bar (had to wait for liquor license approval)
5) My first boxing win
What do you like most about your job?
I like talking to the regulars. They're funny people and are even funnier drunk.
What do you like most about being a mod?
I dunno, its not really fun to moderate, to have to play the cop. So I suppose, the rest of the staff. I love working with you guys.
Are you concerned about people's impression of you? Be honest.
Hmm, kind of. But I don't really let it dictate me unless I care about the person.
What do you feel is the biggest misconception that some people here have about you?
I'm not sure what their conceptions are, so they'd have to let me know, then I can tell you if its a misconception or not
What's your impression of me before, and after, you knew me?
Before - Kinda bad for you. You were becoming the new popular girl on the Hype and that is not an envious position unless you enjoy having a bunch of 14 year olds in love with you through the internet because you have a girl's name and are nice to them
After - Aww...does this mean I have to say something nice too? Pass.
Honestly, you're one of my favorite people. I consider you a friend and confidant. My Hype sister
No. I opened up the PM and speed-read it but I've been so medicated for the past couple days that I've really been doing nothing but sleeping and occassionally checking the Hype. I'll watch tonight.
Yay! t: To celebrate, I will ask myself a question.
Matt asks...
Matt? What is the most underrated movie ever?
Hmm, I'm gonna go with The Big Hit, just because it is ****ing awesome and no one ever gives it credit. I'm watching it on FX right now. I own the DVD and don't watch it nearly enough. I first saw it when it was on pay-per-view via illegal cable box (remember when those still worked?). Its an awesome movie that I wish I watched more.
Matthew, if you had 24 hours before you had to go to jail on Drug Possession and Racketeering Charges, and your Girlfriend is Rosio Dawson and your two best friends are Alex Winters and Phillip Seymor Hoffman, and one of those two friends May have framed you. What would you do before the 25th Hour?
The Ace of Knaves (who is now my favorite poster due to his stance against Nascar) asks...
Hi Matt, hows it going?
Hey, pretty good. You?
Any plans this weekend?
Liza and I drop Claire off to visit her grandparents for the night and go to Pittsburgh for some alone time.
If there was a Hype party who would you want as the DJ?
I'd let you have a go. You started the The Doors appreciation thread.
The MC?
Master Chief.
The three podium dancers?
Showtime, Bamfer, and Lobo.
How long have you been into comic books?
My whole life.
Top 5 villains?
1) Joker - No one else can really compare when it comes down to it.
2) Lex Luthor - Post-crisis (I'm particularly fond of his portrayl in A Superman for All Seasons).
3) Galactus - The man eats planets! Planets for ****s sake!
4) Magneto - Just because I never seem to know whether he is wrong or the one I should be rooting for.
5) Two-Face - I just love Two-Face.
I'm interested in your patented "ass kicking scale", from 1-10, who makes up the numbers?
1 - Zach Effron
2 - Leo DiCaprio in Titanic
3 - Hugh Grant
4 - Screech
5 - Hillary Clinton (she is the middle as the woman has bigger balls than I do, but she wasn't tough enough to win the primary )
6 - Vin Diesel
7 - Leo DiCaprio in The Departed
8 - James Bond
9 - The Mach 5
10 - Jack Bauer
Then there are varying degrees for each number. For example...9.8 is Dame Judi Dench. 8.1 is Liam Neeson, 7.5 is Lou Diamond Philips, 2.2 is Kirsten Dunst, and so on. It would take too much time to say them all. Maybe one day, but for now I think you get it.
You've been around for many of the Survivors and obviously, since it's subjective, I'm curious, name the Top 10 Survivor Players of all time.
1) Kipobe
2) Draven
3) You
You are the only three with multiple wins, if I'm not mistaken. Kipobe has the most as he has the hat trick. I rank Draven above you as he did two, first if I remember correctly (and I may very well not. My memory is hazy now-a-days).
The rest of the list would be compromised of winners, but in the end it would all be a tie. Survivor is subjective. No strategy is better than another. Kessel Day's win is just as much of a win as Daisy's despite the two having very different strategies. All of the past winners would be tied for 4 to 10. In the end, if you don't have a win, you don't deserve to be on the list. That includes me. A win is what matters. You can be the best strategist in the world but if you can't close it doesn't mean jack. Survivor is not a game of statistics. The only statistic that matters is the W-L column. The winners are by default superior players, in my opinion...because no matter how they got there, it worked...where as for the rest of us, just lost.
Of course, thats not to say what the rest of us do is without value. Everyone brings something to the game. If there were a hall-of-fame, it would be different. But for a simple top ten list, I gotta go with winners.

Mission Impossible III taught me one thing. You don't **** with Philip Seymour Hoffman. Ever. He is likely the one who framed me. So I would go to him, offer him Dawson, and shamelessly beg him to frame the guy from Bill and Ted instead. If he complies, I will thank him, kiss his ring, and willingly give him Dawson before I ever cross Philip Seymour Hoffman. I mean, have you ever seen MI:3? The man seems like an overweight middle aged man...but he is a bad ass!
