Shawna, its all good! Erin warned me, she told me to play nice as you could return the favor at the end of the week. Plus it sounds as if you do enough falling in real life I didn't want you falling off the board also.

What's your biggest pet peeve?
    This is probably the easiest question you can ask. I can't stand people who go out of their way to make someone else's job more difficult.

What made you want a Newf?
When I was a toddler friends of my mom had a newf named Ebony, who surprisingly  ;)everyone called Bear. Any time we would visit she was my sitter. I could have done anything to that dog and she would have still loved me, that loyalty and love is why I wanted a newf. I have a picture of me sitting with her in a field that I will have to scan and post, a picture is worth a thousand words after all! Plus whats not to like about 100+ pound dog as aloof as a newf.

If you could live anywhere where would you live?
    Anywhere would be Kauai, Hawaii, more realistically some where in New Hampshire or the foothills in Colorado. If I did move to Colorado, I would miss the ocean though.

Favorite food?
    Lobster, after that it would have to be a good cut of meat or pasta like fresh fettuccini and an alfredo sauce.

What's one thing you've always wanted to do, but haven't yet?
The first answer that comes to mind is vacation in Hawaii.

Here are some of my standard questions - to get you warmed up!  ;D


Favorite song?
For the past few months I've been turning the radio up for Green Day's Holiday.
Favorite singer/band?
I don't really have a favoite group, and while not a Aerosmith groupie I would love to see them in concert.
Favorite movie?
Skulls, its about the secret society Skull & Bones on Yale's Campus.
Favorite actor?
Was Bruce Willis until I met him, he's a drunk. I would say Robin Williams is my favorite, he is just so funny.
Favorite actress?
Would probably be Julia Stiles, if not her then probably Reese Witherspoon. They are both real, suiting the roles they take, leaving  the story lines in their movies much easier to believe.
Favorite book?
Right now I have a Phaidon Atlas on contemporary architechture that I like to look through. For a novel I havn't read much since I left college so the only thing that is standing out is The Da Vinci Code. Notice the trend another secret society.
How do you like your popcorn?
All about the butter.
Food you dislike?
I have a very low tolerance for spicy food so I would have to say anything hot :'(
Favorite time of the day?
I am a fan of late afternoon just as it starts to cool back down.
Favorite time of the year?
Favorite time of year would be Spring and Fall. Fall edging out the Spring because of the lower rain fall.
If you could meet/have dinner with someone present or past, who would it be? why?
This would have to be my Mom's Grandmother. She passed away just before I was born and to hear my Mom talk about her just leaves you feeling as if you missed out on something by not having met this woman.
Favorite color?
Blue,and metallic Red
Favorite school teacher? why?
My third grade teacher Mrs. Campbell, I was in one of her first classes and her approach was so fresh, I believe she was also the only teacher to have both of my sisters and myself in her classes.
Favorite childhood memory?
My summer vacations with my grandmother to Vermont.
Most embarassing childhood memory?
I'm not thinking of anything which isn't good as now it will probably bite me in @ss.
Do you remember your first crush? When was it? Who?
My first crush was a girl Keri in my Kindergarten class. While I haven't spoken to her in about ten years, I talk to her Mom and Dad at least once a year, kinda odd ha.

I'm not sure what or where I will be in ten years, hopefully I'll have started some kind of family. I really would like to be back in school finishing a DVM at that point but we'll see.
What other type of dogs would you like to have? ;D
You mean there is a breed other than Newfoundlands :o.
Seriously, I've always liked Goldens yet never been owned by one and the Wolfhounds in Kali's puppy class are pretty cool too.
My first dog was an Irish Setter named Tammy. She was actually my Mom's but when I came along she decided I was a better source of food if you catch my drift. Our last Irish, Sammy was special because among her many other special attributes she was our "the kids' dog". To further reinforce my love of setters, my grandparents always had English Setters. So the lack of a neurotic Setter in my life right now is a little difficult but at least I have my monster bundle of joy ;D.

Hi Tim,

I'll get on the thread.

What is your degree in and from what school?
My degree if/when I finish is in Animal Science.
Is your job currently in the field you got your degree in?
No, it is about as far from it as possible. I am a high stakes BJ dealer.
Movie night, at home as a single or two some or with the gang and some beer?
I prefer me and at least someone else, but lately its been just me and Kali.
Sleep in PJ's or something else? If else what?
I sleep in boxers and a T-shirt. Funny thing is I still keep my pants on the floor next to the bed in case Kali wants to go potty in the middle of the night, just like when she was a puppy.
Boxers or briefs?
Boxers
Beach or mountains?
Can I have both, maybe like the Oregon coast. I think I lean toward the beach even though I'm not a sunbather, I enjoy hiking along the coast more so than in the mountains. There is something about the sound of the surf and the wind blowing through the grasses that is so calming.
Person from History (not a relative)living or dead you'd most like to have lunch with.
The first person who comes to mind is Frederick Law Olmsted. He is the designer of NY Central Park, credited for Boston's Emerald Necklace, and the grounds of Biltmoore House in NC. He designed landscapes on a grand scale from scratch. The kind of vision he possessed is rare and it is for that reason I would like to have met him.

Fresh cut grass, vannilla, CK One
