more so than I'd like. I really hope the positive swing I was on from Thursday to Saturday hasn't sputtered out already. We'll see.

Oven-roasted new potatoes with oil, rosemary, parsley and garlic or white onion. Parboiled in a little broth before baking, but never peeled. Peeling is for losers.
Add Pepper, Bring Muller-Thurgau

Beef Stroganoff. Me and Corrinne have our own recipes for this dish and both are awesome.

If dining out: dry-sauteed string beans at the Chinese restaurant, over fried rice.
If dining in: a "Portland Salad." Plenty of lettuce, with a berry vinaigrette, sliced ripe pear, toasted hazelnuts (chopped) and crumbled goat or blue cheese.

Ever work in a restaurant? If so, what did you do and what type of place was it?

Yes, I worked for about 5 years as a cook. I generally moved from one place to another whenever I got sick of the menu. Last place I worked I was at for 1 1/2 years, where I was kitchen manager and head cook. It was a pasta place.
APBM,
Ever work retail and if you did, where was it?

While in college, I worked part-time in a comic book shop. It was a very small shop in a downtown mall in Providence RI

I've been asked this before and it changes from time to time, but right now I really want to go to Greece. In Grad School my focus was Roman history but I loved all of the classics and Greek history as well. I'd love to go to Greece and get in touch with all of that. Specifically Thermopylae, which always meant a real lot to my father and I (he's share's the same passion, unrelated to Frank Miller).
APBM,

For me it would be Austrailia. I've always wanted to see kangaroos.
APBM,
This has been asked. What historical event would you like to have, safely, witnessed?

The moment the American public learned Germany had surrendered in WWII, and then when Japan surrendered.
I feel like that would have been a feeling that people who were alive on those days would never forget.
(As I write that, I'm reminded of Vonnegut's intro to "Breakfast of Champions", which I've always found very moving, when he references Armistice Day).

Not intending to stir up any controversy over historical veracity, but I'd like to have been present at some of the more miraculous events described in the Gospels, particularly the one due to be celebrated this weekend. I would just like to see through 21st century eyes, the things recorded by writers of the 1st, and draw my own conclusions. My name is Thomas, after all.
APBM,
What, if anything, would you like to leave as your personal legacy?

My fan fictions. I have very few illusions left about ever being able to write for a living, and, truth be told, when you factor in editors, publishers, demographics, plus the fact that very few professional writers are able to avoid a steep decline in quality as they get older. With no one to answer to and with writing as nothing but a hobby, I'm confident I'll keep turning out good stories for the rest of my life, and helping people escape for a little while into better worlds.

Nothing I can think of. Just some happy memories to a few people.
APBM,
What was your favorite show when you were a kid?
