1. What were you doing ten years ago?

• Lets see, April 1998, I was finishing up my 8th grade year at Hudson Middle School. 8th grade went much better than 7th, all of my friends were still talking to me.
• I just got done with a school musical Robin Hood, in which we did Nazi like choreography and sang a weird song which most of the lyrics were �Never Defeated Never Defeated.�
• On April Fools Day of this year I believe I convinced the entire trombone section of the middle school jazz band to fill up our trombones with water so when we started playing it would a)sound weird b)spray the saxophone section with water and c)annoy our nerdy director Roberto I.
• In a few weeks I will break the school record for shot put during field day and be terrified when our lesbian gym teacher tried to convince me to join the track team. I was an asshole prick. I said I couldn�t because it would conflict with Jazz Band and the Spring Musical which was not a lie.
• oh yeah and there was a teachers strike that spring and I missed the sewing unit on sewing buttons which I still am bad at. The strike was crazy because the lunch ladies took over the school. There were security guards called Huff Masters. We had weird subs who tried to show us how to roll cigarettes and watch R rated movies.
• I was just starting my 8th grade civil war project on postage stamps from that era and about that era. No, I am not even joking.
• But mostly I was SO EXCITED to go to High School and be in the Hudson High School Swing Marching Band, which I had greatly anticipated since the first time I saw them in the fall of 1994.

2. Snacks I enjoy

• Dried Mango with no additives
• Frozen peas that are still frozen
• Oranges
• Crunchy Cheetos
• Cheese

5. Call Elise [this has been on my �to do� list since February, DARN YOU TIME ZONEs!]

4. Things I would do if I became a billionaire:

• Figure out how to help the people in Haiti by providing food and fuel since many of them are currently eating dirt, maybe with a billion dollars I could buy Haiti?
• Do my best to see that the rest of the poorest of the poor globally are getting access to the basic needs of life, especially food and water
• Buy up as much undeveloped land as I could and turn it into land trusts to be preserved until the end of the world
• Sponsor missionaries for Gospel for Asia
• Buy a few Arcs from OxFam
• Buy a lot of hats and shoes, especially Fluevogs and Vans
• Build a chopper and a hotrod out of used materials and I want both to run on bio-diesel I make with algae from my backyard
