This world is full of questions. And some of them even deserve answering. The questions here come from the pages that are Facebook. They’ve been sitting in my inbox for far too long taking up space. Now it’s time to tackle each and every single one. I’ll be as honest and concise as possible and maybe I won’t offend too many people. Yeah, right. Let’s do this…

Bruce Springsteen has a song called Glory Days. When were your glory days?

I would say that either the days I worked at Convenient Food Mart / Dairy Mart and socialized/partied with the infamous Stoney Crew or else the time that I went to Wilmington to manage a store and live for a couple of years. Both times were good, bad, wild, crazy, unforgettable, and always awesome.

Does a person’s political affiliation affect your opinion of them?

Political affiliation does not matter at all. Only if they’re an independent thinker and have some common sense or are a stupid idiot.

Wolves or tigers?

My name is NOT Joe Exotic. I prefer the wolves.

Wonder Woman versus Storm versus Harley Quinn. Who wins?

Princess Diana, aka Wonder Woman. Storm is the better character and Harley is the hottest in the movies (and would probably be the one most fun to hang out with), but Diana is an Amazon and demi-goddess trained to fight. She wins.

Who is the worst member of Congress? (Pick only one.)

Only one? It’s the one who lies all the time, who gets on TV talking nonsense, who has been in power for far too long and is as corrupt as the day is long. You know who I’m talking about. They have a (D) listed after their name. Not sure if that stands for Democrat or dumb-ass, but I’m sure if you turn on the TV, you’ll see them.

Have you ever procrastinated about procrastinating?

Probably.

What do women do for fun?

Watch Kevin Smith movies, provide comfort and service to their husband or boyfriend, make sandwiches, and tap dance. Hell, how do I know? I’m not a woman.

Hall & Oates or Heart? Who’s better?

That’s like comparing tacos to Chinese food. Both are incredible, but it just depends on what you’re in the mood for when you go to dinner.

Country Rap. Is it good or bad?

I would have at one time said bad, but then I discovered Struggle, Jelly Roll, Yelawolf, and a couple of others. They’re amazing talents so I’ll have to go with the good for this query.

What are your 5 favorite movie soundtracks?

The Lost Boys, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, RENT!, Jesus Christ Superstar, and Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Who belongs in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, but hasn’t been inducted yet?

I would go with Rickie Lee Jones, Culture Club, Paul Shaffer, Clarence Carter, Sublime, and Beck.

Are you a patriotic American?

I am proud to be American and I love and respect our flag, our country, our President, and what our nation represents. So I would reply affirmatively to that inquiry.

Do you have a favorite type of pudding?

Vanilla is okay and I can always appreciate some chocolate, but it’s a banana pudding that really rocks my world.

And there you go. A few random questions from the world that is Facebook and have been sitting in my inbox waiting to be answered for far too long. Any comments, questions, or thoughts are welcome and appreciated. Until the next time, take care of yourself and stay safe.
