In the last few days, it's become rather evident that I'm going to be keeping #9 around for some time and, having seen Nick's introduction to Sarah Cool's blog, I thought it might be fun to blatantly steal her idea and do the same for my new guy (despite the fact that he has yet to meet the fam-damn-ly.)
Last night I sat down all prepared to create the list to end all lists, filled to the brim with teasing and embarrassing questions designed purely to test the poor man's mettle. The onslaught (or barrage if you will) was to be glorious and maybe even a little bit painful (because that is how I roll). Only... I can't really think of what to ask him. Oh, don't get me wrong. I have thought up a few zingers that might soon send him scurrying under the table to hide and sob and rock and ask himself why? oh god, why?, but the glory that was to be is not so much glorious as it is pitiful.
Therefore, I am again turning to you, dear interwebs. What do you want to know about the yet-to-be-renamed-#9? NO QUESTION WILL GO UNANSWERED!! NOTHING IS TOO TABOO!! All shall be answered (maybe not satisfactorily, because, come on. My dad reads this here blog thing, but ANSWERED THEY SHALL BE NONETHELESS!)
So come one and come all. If you read my blog with any amount of regularity, you are REQUIRED to post a question. Any question. Pretty please? And if you don't, I shall be muy sad. So play along DAMNIT!
Do it now!

You asked for it:
What does he do for a living?
Does he have any siblings? If so, how many and what gender(s)?
Does he truly understand the sister dynamic of the Reiss girls? And to stay out of the line of fire?
Does he like spicy food?
Could he hold his own when drinking with Trini?
What's his Cornhole (the GAME PEOPLE!!) handicap?
Thanks. This is fun!!!!!
I think getting outside help is cheating... but I guess if it'll keep the audience happy...
Sorry, babe. My blog, my rules.
If you two become a couple will he be powerful enough to over ride your decision and see that I get a GOOD nursing homw?
HAHAHA! Nice one, Dad! Too bad he won't be able to over ride the votes that BJ and I get... 1 out of 6 isn't majority!
I really want to know if he can handle all 3 of the sisters together...on top of that, can he handle all the uncles and cousins together? (Those are more of a Shannon question though)
Does he golf? Does he play video games? Can he handle two dogs fighting for 2 days? Is he willing to watch a chick flick?
That's all I can think of right now...
The way I see it, there are 2 kinds of people: those who like Animaniacs and those who don't. So, which is he?
The only way to tell the character of someone is it ask them this:
Who is your favorite Muppet?
If they answer wrong...well, that's just bad. (and obviously we all know the correct answer.)
Tell him this story and don't tell him what the people mean until after the end because that's the only way it will work. So here's the story:
Sooooo, there was this cruise ship. And out in the middle of the ocean, it hit a rock. And the rock punctured the hull and the boat sank. Well, 5 people survived and they ended up on two different islands because they were just trying to get to dry land when they were slashing around and all. Also there were probably dead bodies in the water and wanted to get away from them. But anyway, two islands. So, two of the people that survived were a husband and wife. Well, it just so happened they were on different islands. However, the wife was in luck! There was a rowboat on her island! Yay! However... she needs someone to pilot it because she doesn't know how. Now, there are two other guys on the island as well, so she asks them to take her over there. The one guy simply said "no" and that he doesn't really care enough to take her over. The other guys says "Sure... if you sleep with me." So, the wife wrestles with her perdiciment and decides to do it to be with her husband. But when she gets to the other island and tells her husband what she did to be with him, he flips out and says he doesn't want to be with her anymore. He then hooks up with another girl that was on his island. The end!
Now, you have to rate the people from most in the right to least.
I'm waiting...

Ok, now to replace the people with the qualities they represent. The wife represents love, I think... umm... I think the boat man is power... umm... well... someone is money, I think... and then 3 other qualities.
Hope that helps!

You all have lost your damn minds. Particularly Brent.
i've been thinking for a couple of days...trying to come up with a good question, but it's also examtime. that stuff is most of what fills my mind at the moment...so in fitting with that...
does he know what nerve provides taste for the anterior 2/3 of the tongue?
Nice question Dad! Bean said you can live with her. I heard her say it. OK, she was 6 but that should still hold up in a court of law. Right??? Did I tell you about the nursiong home out here that has a bar in it. They have Happy Hour everyday!!! (Do not add snarky comments about old people and Happy Hour.)
Anywho, back to the questions for #9:
If he can pick any nickname for himself, what would it be and why?
If he could provide you with transportation what would it be?
What is his nickname for you?
Angelina or Jen????
Does he cook? Better yet, does he cook well?
Shan - When do we get his answers?
We're hanging out tomorrow (Wednesday) night. I was going to make him answer them then.
Thanks for playing kids. I feel much better about myself now.
Rachel, I believe that would be the facial nerve. Hurray for Google...
where did he go to school? what did he major in? what was his gpa? what is his best quality? what is his favorite thing about you?
