Sadly, yes... I did have to rush out the door, but it's Monday, so it wasn't too busy. I'm back! Again, Doodle, thank you! I'm very honored.

Now, on to the questions....

Peach asked:
What's your Starbucks order?

I've been working as a barista for the better part of the last decade, so my coffee order never varies. I get a grande vanilla latte with cold milk. It's easier to slam it down that way.

What's your favorite ice cream?

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Horrible. Simply horrible.

Kissmycookie asked:
What is your ideal meal?

That's a toughie, because it varies with the seasons. I'd say probably dinner at a nice, casual Italian place. Start off with a vodka martini, salad and bread, followed by virtually any pasta dish. I could (and virtually do)live on pasta. Carbs be damned.

What is your favourite comfort food dish?
Pasta, again. I make a great meat sauce, and when I'm feeling down it cheers me up to no end. I'll usually have it on either rotini or angelhair pasta depending on my mood.

Soapguy17 asked:

Who would you most like meet?
I can't think of any celebrities or notable figures I'd like to meet. I'd LOVE to meet most of the people on this board. The next time I make it to NYC, there'd better be a BWW gathering. ;o)


If you were a pair of underwear which kind would you be?
Calvin Klein boxer briefs. They look good on everyone.

Do you own a Costco card?
We don't have Costco where I live. We have Sam's Club, and while I have to have a card for work, I never use it. I try to buy locally as much as possible.

Where would you want your next vacation to be?

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 3:56pm

Thanks for the congrats, everybody!

DD asked:
If you were a pair of shoes, what shoes would you be and why?
Probably red Converse All-Stars. If ever there was a shoe that reminded me of my personality, it's that one. Surprisingly, I own several pair, but none in red.

If you could have anyone over for dinner, who would it be and what would you serve them?
I'd Southern it up. Lots of fried chicken and ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, fried green tomatoes and fries apples, devilled eggs... I'd even make one of those icky looking mint-green jello salads, but I wouldn't expect anyone to eat it. Collard greens would be out, though. I don't want my house smelling like that.
As for who I'd invite? Ah, sheesh. I don't even know!

If we went out with you and your best friend, what story would he/she tell us that you would have not?
All three of my closest friends have TOO much dirt on me, but you'd probably end up with a story involving me, a blizzard, and a tree that fell on my house. It's inappropriate to post here, and my friend likes to tell it LOUD, OFTEN, and WITHOUT REGARD for the company we're in.

Where would you want your next vacation to be?

Chicago. Gypsy at Ravinia. Too bad it ain't gonna happen.

Outside of that, it would be NYC, or London. Not just for the theater, I've always preferred cities to mountains or the beach.

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 4:06pm

Ha! DD - you'd be more than welcome, but be careful. All that cholesterol and gossip!

Congratulations, WonderWaiter! You are the next best hope of BroadwayWorld.

[shameless]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 4:51pm

Congrats Wonderwaiter!

I better ask now, since there will be no Primetime BWW tonight.


If you were recuperating in a hospital, who would you want in the bed next to you, excluding relatives?

What has given you the most pleasure in the last year?

What's something that we would be surprised to learn about you?

If your house were on fire, what would you grab on the way out?

If we asked an important person in your life to describe you, what would he or she say? How accurate would it be?

What’s something that you’ve never done, but have always wanted to try?

What’s the last great gift that you gave someone? And, that you were given?

[wonderwaiter]

If you were recuperating in a hospital, who would you want in the bed next to you, excluding relatives?
Dolly Parton would be a lot of fun.

What has given you the most pleasure in the last year?
Moving in to my new apartment. Now if I'd just get around to unpacking. (I moved in in February!)

What's something that we would be surprised to learn about you?
With some of the things I've posted on this board, I'd be surprised if there were any surprises left! Let's see... I'm a neat freak who's place is a mess. I'm also a voracious reader who owns very few books.

If your house were on fire, what would you grab on the way out?
As long as the cats made it out safely, I can't think of a single thing. I don't have anything irreplaceable. (Although if there were time, I'd probably grab my Carrie poster on the way out :-P)

If we asked an important person in your life to describe you, what would he or she say? How accurate would it be?
They'd say that I have very little patience, and from their point of view they'd be right.

What’s something that you’ve never done, but have always wanted to try?
Skydiving!!! I tried indoor skydiving once, but it was a disappointment.

What’s the last great gift that you gave someone? And, that you were given?
Your questions are so hard! For a gift I've given? A few years ago a friend of mine had his house broken into. They stole all of his electronics, CDs, and DVDs. This happened a couple of weeks before his birthday, so for his birthday I gave him a television with built in DVD and VHS. It didn't give him back his peace of mind, but it did let him know that he had a friend who cared enough to spend that much. Mind you, this is that same friend who likes to tell that horrible story about me!
As for a gift I've been given - it would have to be my 30th birthday party. We had a "prom", and everyone went all out buying outfits for themselves. A chef in one of the local restaurants made a special meal for me, and we spent the night going from bar to bar showing off our fancy duds.

Whew! That was introspective. How about some fluff questions?

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 6:01pm

HOW EXCITING!!!!

Now, my new "regular" question:

Favorite posters? And I don't mean the ones of Lynda Carter above your bed.

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 6:29pm

I SAID NO MORE HARD QUESTIONS!

Okay. I can only think of a couple off the top of my head that I actively dislike, but my favorites would definitely be the ones that make me laugh the most. In no particular order, and certain to be missing a few - Rath (of course!), cheezedoodle, doodlenyc, Garland Grrl, Dottie, Tiff, Margo, Elphaba, PalJoey, papalovesmambo, Calvin, Jerby, RobbO, SOMMS, SmartPenguin, Patronus, Colleen, b12b, blueroses, Kringas, LizzieCurry, Dollypop, and Yenta. A long list, but I'm sure I've missed at least a couple.

I'm smart enough to ask only certain people that question.

[SweetQintheLights]

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 6:53pm

Don't it just figure? I'm celeb of the day, and the site needs "special maintenance". I smell a conspiracy.


SweetQ, I'll get to your questions just as soon as the site's back up. (It'll give me time to think about what I'm going to say to that zebra!)

[iflitifloat]

Congratulations and have a very fine special day, Wonderful WALTER!

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 11:19pm

SweetQ asked:
1. Would you rather be a nun or a prostitute?
Prostitute. Then people would pay me to dress like a nun.

2. In your house, what is the most 'sexual' thing you have?
Are you ready for this? Hanging on my bedroom wall, I have an eight foot tall gold jewel-encrusted phallus. Several years ago, I played the lead in a production of Theodora, She-Bitch of Byzantium, and in lieu of a proscenium, these flanked the stage. At one particularly dramatic moment, I flung myself, er, dramatically against one. After the production, I kept one. I was going to throw it out years ago, but it's become infamous in its own right since then. Plus, I just don't know if I want that sitting out with my garbage by the curb. I have hung show flyers on it, though, to lessen the fear factor for my poor exterminator.

3. Have you ever used an eraser for anything except erase?
Not that I can recall.

4. What is the weirdest thing you learned in health class
That the guy who sat next to me was not shy.

5. Would you rather swim in the ocean with your best guy friend or your best girl friend?
Either would be fun, but I prefer lounging poolside.

6. If your significant other jumped off a cruise ship- would you jump too?
No. I'd probably point and laugh.

7. If your doorbell rang and you opened up to see a zebra, what would be the first thing you do- (except close the door)
Well, I live in an upstairs apartment in a historic home, so he'd have to get through the foyer and up the stairs. My downstairs neighbor is a bit of a Gladys Kravitz, so I'd probably try to figure out how he got that far to begin with.

8. If you had to pick, would you rather smell gasoline or flatulence?
Gasoline, by far.

9.Do you enjoy popping bubble wrap?
Absolutely! I miss working at this one cafe because our cheesecakes came delivered in both bubble wrap AND dry ice! Thursdays were fun days.

10. If you were able to kill either Saddam Huessein or Osama Bin Laden- who would you choose?
Bin Laden.
Waaaaaaalter!

wonder- I'm a bit worried about you. That 2nd answer was a bit...disturbing.
However, I do feel it was a very truthful answer. WoW.

Have a great last few minutes of your day!

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/10/06 at 11:41pm

It's okay - it's theatrical memorabilia.

At least, that's what I tell the exterminator.

[Rathnait62]

Heya, WW! Having fun?

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 7/11/06 at 12:06am

Yippee! Just creeping SweetQ out with my decorating tastes.

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 7/11/06 at 12:07am

Certainly sounds like fun!
