Ok, this will be a simple game we can do to get to know each other, the rules are simple, I will ask a question. The first person will answer the question in as much or as little detail as he wishes to. Then that person will ask a question, and so on.

The questions will be the basic (whats your favorite color), or the more in depth (whats your thoughts on Global warming). Its up to you what to ask, and answer.

Since I have no question to answer, I'll reveal a bit about me, then ask a question.

Ok, I am a hardcore Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan. I follow the show religously, There are only a few episodes of Buffy I have not seen, and I will see them soon.

Ok, my question, What is your favorite color (a simple one I know)?



P.S.- If this doesnt catch on, then oh well, but it might be interesting.

Forgive me if I don't do this right, but oh well... My favorite color is blue and my favorite movie outside of Bond would easily be The Thomas Crown Affair:) Now for my question, who's your favorite musical artist(s)? Mine's Sting and The Police, U2, Phil Collins and Genesis, Billy Joel, and Bruce Springsteen.

My faviourite musical artist would be Garbage (liked em before they did Bond, so that made me very happy)
JimmyBond, im a huge buffy fan also, although buffy freak would probably describe it better. My obsession for buffy can sometimes rival my obsession for bond.

Ok, fav color is blue. Embarrasing moment: Getting to know a girl that I wanted to ask out, and when I did I forgot her name. :eek: Fav movie: I really don't, it kinda changes. But currently it's Changing Lanes with Ben Affleck and Sam Jackson. Fav TV Show: The West Wing. Fav Band: Creed, Smash Mouth, Barenaked Ladies, Foo Fighters, Puddle of Mudd, Gorillaz, and an odd choice, that classical music of the PC Game The Sims.

My turn:

If you could actually be a character in a film and not exist in real life, just in the film, which genre would you choose: Drama, Romantic Comedy, Action, or Supernatural Horror.

If this question puzzles people, tell me and I will explain.

I would be a character in a musical comedy. I would be Ginger Rogers or Judy Garland or someone like that, and life would be full of dancing, singing, and colorful costumes. Sigh.

Okay, my question: What's your ethnic background?

Not really into animated movies now. Sometimes if a Tom and Jerry cartoon happens to be on, I would sit back, relax and enjoy it (big kid, I know :) )

Have you ever been sitting in your living room only to look out and see several men with loaded guns walking through your back and front gardens ? (I have) :)

No, but a couple of years ago I looked out my kitchen window to see a javelina walking through my yard. . .something you could only see in the American southwest!

Now my question: who is your favorite (non-Bond) author?

Now yet another one of my questions: Who's your favorite actor/actress? (Non-Bond if you can help it...) Mine are Gregory Peck and Pierce Brosnan... (I guess I can't help it myself;) )

Hmm, I don't think I have any. But any old-school actor or actress, because they were celebrities and they could actually ACT. And Dr. Tynan, what buisness are you in? :)

I like Weetabix if I fancy breakfast but I seldom do... I'd rather wait until around 10ish and have sandwich. Love sandwiches!

Which leads me onto my question... what's your favourite sandwich filling?

I like tuna sandwiches.

I'm not a horror fan. I'd have to say Psycho (the original).

Of all the places I've been too, Spain was the place I enjoyed most.

Has your family ever had the wheels of their car ripped open by a group of men armed with loaded guns? Mine did :) (before I was born).

They used a stinger to slash our cars tyres.
