You have four unexpected guests showing up for dinner in less than an hour, you haven't been to the store in days, and you want to impress them with a delicious meal. What do you serve them?

Well, if they are unexpected... how the hell do I know they are coming for dinner and why would I be preparing? I guess that means I'd be serving them all knuckle sandwiches. Way to try to mooch, jerks.

What is the scariest experience you've had with Mother Nature?
Submitted by jacolily.

Let's just say stepping outside your house and seeing a tornado heading straight for you is not exactly the most peaceful feeling in the world. Not to mention that the panic of actually seeing one approaching pretty much freezes you in your tracks. Not that you could really outrun one anyway, but being able to make the effort would  be good. If you've never seen a tornado before consider yourself lucky. I have witnessed a few of the scary bastards and would rather not do it again.

You know the saying... Everything's bigger in Texas. Well, that includes tornadoes.

A tornado went over Kemp when I was a child. It was kind and spared this entire town. It didn't touch down until it was right on the edge, where it wiped out a mobile home sales lot. They were twisted like pretzels. Scary sight indeed. Fortunately no one was living in them since they were just demos. There were a few that were still standing after that, but the Lot soon went out of business. No one wanted to buy a mobile home after seeing what the tornado did to them. I can still remember the sound the tornado made as it was passing overhead. Bone Chilling really. It sounded like a freight liner passing by... amplified about 40 times. The house was shaking and I felt certain the windows were about to shatter. I just knew we were all going to die.

That memory was the first thing that flashed into my mind when.. as an adult, I was staring right at a cyclone heading for my house. I was only frozen in place for a few seconds.. but it felt like an eternity. Luckily the tornado changed it's path and I was spared again.

How do you travel to and from work - personal vehicle, bus, subway/train, pedal power? What does it cost you per week in gas or fares?

I use my feet. I get up, do my morning routine.. then walk over to the computer. It costs me ZERO in gas or fares. Envy me.

If your Vox Neighborhood had a potluck dinner tonight, what dish, drink or dessert would you bring?

I would be the bringer of strong beverage. I would get Halo wasted off her ass and force her to sing songs from Wizard of Oz and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory all night. Good times. I would of course also have to bring an entire box of Pixi Stix and Nerds to keep her appeased.

When do you start your holiday shopping?

I sort of shop all year round. If I see something I think someone will like I get it and put it back for their birthday or christmas. Sometimes I can't wait so I go ahead and give it to them early. I love giving gifts more than receiving them.

Have you figured out what your (or your kids') Halloween costume will be this year?  What's it going to be?

I am going to be Elvira.. but an Elvira whose breasts are glued to the dress. I am not interested in flashing my nipples for all the world to see.

When driving alone, what do you do?  Sing along to the radio?  Think about your day?  Something else?
Submitted by carapiccoladiva.  

I concentrate on driving and try to avoid killing myself and/or others.

What are five things that most people don't know about you? 
Submitted by mika.

1. I am a member of Mensa. I know, shocking.. isn't it?
2. I am fluent in multiple languages and swear like a sailor in every one of them.
3. I "died" (briefly.. obviously) when i was a child. Severe allergic reaction to penicillin.
4. I have a creepy sixth sense involving those close to me. I somehow know if they are in trouble or are going to be in trouble. Related to number 3 perhaps?
5. I have "predicted" the death of at least 16 famous people within a day of when they died. One being Mother Teresa. That even scares me.

What's the oldest thing in your fridge?

Trick question or trick answer? The oldest thing in my fridge is a tupperware tea pitcher. My mom bought it about  25 years ago and gave it to me awhile back. Those things last forever.

What's your favorite card game?

Without a doubt my favorite card game is Uno. I even played it on xbox live for a time, but as that is one of the games that allow live cams and some men want  to be 'jerk offs' (if you know what I mean) I stopped. If I wanted to see a dude jack off I'd be looking at pRon, not playing a video game.
