I don't think I've ever watched it all the way through. Is that unamerican?

ooh, tough one.
Music/Entertainment: iTunes, Best Buy
Clothes: Goodwill, The Gap, Heritage, PacSun, random online stores

Only tap. My town has some of the best tap water in the nation. It's free!

kirsty wrote:

favorite book(s)?

The Bible, although for it being my "favorite book", I sure don't read it enough.
Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller
The Harry Potter series really gripped me growing up
79 Short Essays on Design by Michael Bierut
I don't have time to read as much as I'd like to.

kirsty wrote:

favorite ska band?

Ha. Five Iron Frenzy takes the all-time award, but Less Than Jake has really been kicking my butt lately.

kirsty wrote:

do you use a planner?

Another funny question for me. I NEVER used to use a planner, but this last semester in school, I really let a lot of important things slide. So the first thing I bought at the bookstore was a planner and I've been trying to use it every day.

I don't know about unamerican, but I highly recommend watching it.

Well. It's done, but we're trying to find a good day to play a release show. Our stupid guitarist is getting married all of the sudden and he has to do pre-marital counseling retreats every single weekend is seems like. Long story short, it might not be til late March. But it should be available online (iTunes, amazonmp3, and bigcartel) in a week or two.

Hahaha. Sorry for you about your guitarist, but I think it's hilarious that you're irritated with his pre-marital counseling.

Iowa State University Official 2009 Planner by House of Doolittle

kirsty wrote:

do you know about cars?

uhhhh no. I've never really had my own car, so pretty much all I can do is change the oil and change a tire.

kirsty wrote:

how often do you eat out?

A couple times a week? My friends and I hit up the 24-hour Perkins at least once a weekend at 2am.

kirsty wrote:

what's on your wall (posters/etc)?

In my bedroom: hat rack, white board, a little painting thing my gf and I did at a fair, a postcard from Seattle from her, a big picture of a city, a Showbread, Anberlin, Flatfoot 56, Mike Dunn, A Plea For Purging, and two As Cities Burn posters, a poster I made of an Appleseed Cast song, two posters that were school projects, a mirror, a tiny tiny sign that says "Relax. Take a deep breath.", an inspirational Christian poster that makes me laugh, a construction paper art of my cat, and a big cardboard sign that says "I'm glad you were born, Jon! HAPPY BIRTHDAY."

kirsty wrote:

do you like sports?

Hell yeah! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X2eZhLfhmU. I love playing sports and I'm really competitive even though I kind of suck. I love playing Ultimate Frisbee, Disc Golf, Softball, Dodgeball, Football, and Hockey. I only watch professional football. I hate basketball.

Can you name three points in your life which shaped who you are now?

For that matter... just who are you now?

What's going on in your life recently?

Are you in a relationship? If so, talk about it a little. If not, why not, man?

I didn't know I was

jazzyjunebug wrote:

We probably would have to meet in real life first.

do movies count?

jazzyjunebug wrote:

do you like to wear headbands?

Only when it's functional, and since I started cutting my hair short, it hasn't been. I used to wear them all the time when I was in high school to try to look cool.

jazzyjunebug wrote:

favorite chick flick?

Amelie

jazzyjunebug wrote:

thoughts on drew barrymore?

I'm not a huge fan, but she's had some good roles. I actually enjoyed Never Been Kissed, while we're on the subject of chick flicks. Her character was super cheesy though.

jazzyjunebug wrote:

dreadlocks?

Are sweet. On the right people. Troy Polomalu, Matty from For Today, Shane Claiborne, the entire band of P.O.D., and my hippie friend Nate are allowed to have dreads.

jazzyjunebug wrote:

special brownies?

Are you listening to reggae or something? I've never tried pot. But my mom's brownies are special.

jazzyjunebug wrote:

firecrackers?

Fireworks. They're illegal in Iowa, but that doesn't stop my friends and I from making a trip to Missouri a couple times a summer.

jazzyjunebug wrote:

love?

...is the answer
until you get cancer
then you're lying
dying

Best thing I've seen all day.

Hahahahaha I want one!

I do too. And I want to be able to play it. I do have a kazoo.

Might as well do a couple more of these.

ichthuz wrote:

who did you vote for?

I voted for a lot of different people that I supported. But I think you're talking about for president...in that case, I didn't vote for any of the candidates. I didn't support McCain, Obama, (or any of the third party candidates, for that matter) enough to do it.

ichthuz wrote:

have you ever had "simply lemonade" ?

I don't think so. Doesn't matter. I know where to get better lemonade.

ichthuz wrote:

Pulp is the best!
