: 1. Name or explain a childhood fear.
Fear of heights
:
: 2. What is one of your biggest fears in life now?
Still a paralizing fear of heights. I yell at my kids when they get too close to the railings on the upper floors at malls.
:
: 3. What's the scariest/most disturbing film you've ever seen in the tenure of your life? I mean, this stunk in your head days afterwards...
When I saw Friday the 13th (part 1, before it got goofy) that stuck with me a while.
:
: 4. What do you do to take your mind off of things that upset you?
Listen to music or go for a drive
:
: 5. Do you do anything somewhat superstitious "just in case?" Explain.
Most of my superstitions deal with coachingsports. I always keep score in black ink, I never eat lunch the day of a wrestling meet, and several more. In regular life my only one is to never put shoes on the bed.
: 6. Name or explain something dangerous you've done that you knew was dangerous.
Drove on Lake Geneva (WI) when it was winter. Very stupid!
:
: 7. Very morbid question: Have you ever been in a situation where the thought crossed your mind, even if for a brief moment, that you might honestly die (i.e. surgery, accident, gun to your head, etc)? Explain if you feel up to it.
I was a bartender on a boat at Navy Pier (Chicago) and a storm hit while we were out past the breakwater. I thought it was going to be a Perfect Storm moment.
:
: 8. Tension breaker question: If you were a super hero, what would your weakness be? The opposite sex
:
: Yes, I read every answer.
