definately Altair.  I like him more than Snake.

now which video game character would you rather have at the dinner table?: Kirby or Alex Mercer?

Well, methinks Kirby would have better hygiene, so I'll go with Kirby.

Do you prefer black or blue ink, and why, dagnabbit, why?!

Dirty Harry or The Gauntlet?

Gimme that big cop, Callahan, even if he doesn't like ketchup on his hot dogs.

My ink question from above still stands...

black ink out of habit.  In both HS and Uni it was black in only in Lab notebooks.  then had a few jobs that were the same way.  I get a blue pen by accident i usually throw it away so i don't make a mistake and use it.

automatic pencil or one you have to sharpen?

Mechanical pencils.  I have a few of the same model, because it's the only one I've found where the button is where your thumb normally rests.  You don't have to adjust your grip at all to extend the lead.

Do you still use paper very often?

Yes- every day. Notebooks, lined paper, note cards, drawing paper, etc. I still keep a realtime hard back paper journel and a random ideas notebook.

Cat, dog, or fish?

Oh mighty Mur the Magnificent. I am not worthy.

Hard to decide between the Grand Canyon and Mount Rushmore.  Both made me feel small, but in an awesome way.

Gas or electric kitchen appliances?  (Stove top, oven, etc.)

If I had to pick just one, Norse. There's something awesome about it all.

How would you solve a problem like Maria?

She's a flibbertigibbet. A will-o-the-wisp. A clown.

One day, when you're older, I'll tell you the story about how a man can cry out the name "Maria" in a Puerto Rican neighborhood and have only one girl look out her window.

It's pretty amazing, really, and there's even a cool car chase.

Next question:

It's time to storm the castle/mad scientist's lab/corporate headquarters.  Are you the peasant holding the flaming torch or the peasant holding the pitchfork? And, yes, why?

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.  Oops! 

I'm the village blacksmith carrying the hammer.  Pitchforks and torches are for the masses.

Have you ever hired torchbearers to serve as canon fodder or to "find" traps?  (We actually ran out of torchbearers in one of our campaigns...)

What Nobody was the scientist preparing to defend his home against the ignorant masses who wish him harm because they don't understand the importance of his scientific experiments on the dead? 
And while we never used torchbearers as cannon fodder, we did you a priest who had been turned to stone as a battering ram, man was he pissed that we broke off his arm.

What other crazy things have you done like this as either PC or GM.

I once had a Stone Golem fall out of the sky and crush me out of nowhere. But the Dungeon Master hated me, so that probably explains it.

I hate Dungeon Masters...

Anyway, what game would you play with Death for your soul?

Friday, followed by The Moon is a Harsh Mistress

Which of Heinlein's "old standbys" annoyed you the most? -- stuff like the general sexism in his writing (and yes I realize we can spin off a whole topic about that, but not right now), the polyamorous families that seem to be perfect all the time, his constant references to spanking, etc.

Definitely the Free Love with NO JEALOUSY.  This isn't entirely true, as there are jealous outsiders.  But all jealousy stops once you've joined the group.

Who would you like to hear for Pseudopod #200?
