Once upon a time, there was a man named Casper who lived on Twitter and asked lots of great questions. He asked and I would answer, thus Questions By Casper was born. But then one day, he vanished and I had to find another source for my Q&As. Well, Twitter stepped up and now provides me with lots of random questions. It’s not Casper anymore, but it’s still lots of great fun. Now it’s Questions (Not) By Casper. And it all starts right now. Let’s go.

In three words or less, What have your friends taught you?

Don’t trust anyone.

David Bowie OR George Harrison?

George Harrison was a great singer, songwriter, and Beatle, but Bowie is David Bowie. He was unique and amazing and truly one of the best of all time.

Name a famous rules-for-thee but not-for-me person.

Almost any politician or person in Washington would qualify, but I’m assuming I should answer with a specific name. How about Joe Biden?

Do you understand what “GYAITMFHRNBIBYA” means?

I know exactly what it means and I’ve heard variations of this statement many times as I was growing up.

In three words or less, How do you overcome challenges?

Deal with it!

In three words or less, How to observe without judgment?

Stay open minded.

What is your favorite Guns N Roses song?

Almost anything off the Use Your Illusion albums could be used to answer this, but I’ve always been partial to this one off the Spaghetti Incident album as well. It was dedicated to legendary R&B singer Johnny Ace and I believe Duff was the singer for this one.

Should we have 24/7 surveillance on politicians and published conversations with every lobbyist they meet with?

It would be great if that was possible, but we can’t even get a list of who The President has visiting at his home during his weekly vacations to Delaware, nor any kind of clarification as to what those many meetings are about. It’d be nice, but will never happen.

Have you ever responded to a question with a question?

Would I do that? What do you think?

In three words or less, What are you passionate about?

Wrestling, writing & learning.

In three words or less, Tell me your survival instinct techniques.

Watch your back.

Name one super popular movie that you’ve never seen.

I can think of several, such as ET, Indiana Jones, The Godfather, etc. But one? How about Barbie? I haven’t seen it nor do I have any intentions to ever do so.

What’s worse? Nazis, Commies, or Teletubbies?

Teletubbies. I’ve heard stories that they’re gay. The horror! The shame!

What’ll you be having for breakfast/lunch/dinner?

I’ll probably sleep through breakfast and eat chicken nuggets for lunch before I go to work. As for dinner, I have no idea, but I’m guessing probably Taco Bell and a cold beer.

Should a Photo ID be required to vote?

If it’s required to buy alcohol, cigarettes, enter a Federal building, open a bank account, cash a check, enter an R-Rated movie, get a motel room, or rent a car, it should also be required in order to cast a vote. So my answer would be yes.

And there you go. My thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and any questions are welcome and appreciated. Please share, subscribe, and like as well. Thank you. And with that, let’s wrap it up. Take care and be well, my friends. I’ll see you at the Starbucks. I’ll be the one drinking a Mt. Dew Zero. Be good.

Ubuntu!
