You have the power to reverse the death (and circumstances surrounding that death) for anyone one time and one time only. Do you use it now (and if so, on whom), or do you pocket it for later?

I approve of your selections all around.speedchuck wrote:Unpopular opinions may abound.Epignosis wrote:What is your favorite member of Kansas and why? Favorite song? Favorite album?
Hard to decide on a favorite member of Kansas. I love Kerry Livgren's songwriting, I love Steve Walsh's voice and style, but one of my favorite members of Kansas is Phil Ehart. He strongly influenced by drumming style.
Favorite two songs: Off the top of my head, it would be Miracles out of Nowhere and Icarus II. Another couple of fun favorites are Mainstream (from the John Elephante days) and Down the Road. Ooh, and I love Desperate Times.
Album... would have to be Leftoverture. I know, I'm all mainstream and stuff, but it's so good! After that, I love Drastic Measures.
I need to listen to more early Kansas.
Drastic Measures is a great overlooked 80s album.
Also, Ehart kept Walsh out of jail, so good choice there.

Have you attended a musical performance/concert? If so, what are your favorite concert(s) you have ever attended?
I've attended four concerts, five if you include a Christmas music celebration, and probably twenty-five if I include shows that I played in myself. I enjoyed watching Kansas play with a college symphony orchestra, and recently I had the opportunity to see Weird Al live. The other two concerts were Rush concerts.
Ah, hard to say what my favorite was, but I'd put Kansas up there. That was a beautiful concert, and most importantly, I had really good seats.

Is it strange watching movies where Christmas is portrayed as snowy, given that Christmas happens during Australian summer?
Not remotely. Even though I've lived here all my life, I still associate Christmas with snow and the cold and all those northern hemisphere stereotypes. Besides, Christmas in Australia is sheer hell, climate-wise. I love the cold and long to one day, experience a Christmas in a place like London
You're a big Tolkien fan; what do you think of C.S. Lewis' work?
This is a tricky question. I struggle to compare the two. If you look at Lewis' work (e.g. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe) you get a bunch of talking animals and Santa Claus. I appreciate the religious undertones and themes in his works and that's all good. Comparing that to Lord of the Rings however is an entirely different thing. It seems to me that there is such eloquence and wisdom in LOTR - particularly as it pertains to the nature of good and evil - it's extraordinary. The breadth of imagination Tolkein used, the fact that he ignored accepted wisdom in how he structured the story - I think these are all factors that contribute to it being one of those rare books that when you pick it up, you get swept up in it. I hope that answers your question...

I'm a friend.Glorfindel wrote:You call a lot of us your "friends" which i will happily accept. Which of us would be considered close friends?
My perspective on this is that everyone here is my friend until they give me cause to think otherwise. Obviously given my long association with Sig, I'd consider him a close friend. Golden has always treated me with respect and been supportive of me since I've been here and I'd like to think he's a close friend. Likewise, after the mess that was my Arkham Mafia campaign, Bubbles wrote to me to encourage me and I really appreciated the thought. There were a couple of guys from Battlestar Galactica too (Ricothet and 3J) that stood up for me when no one else would AND they were correct so I have a degree of respect for them.
Just a really really bad one.
Hey, uh...mind if I borrow some money?
Congratulations on that journey. I've written a couple of novels- nothing I've cared to publish. The very first novel I ever started (22 years ago) is finally coming to a close this week. It's a bittersweet moment, but it feels good to see this thing "grow up." I was 11 years old when I started writing it by hand (I still have the spiral bound notebooks). I rewrote it when I was in high school. Then I revisited it and started rewriting it again six years ago. Now it's pages away from being done. It is also fantasy.Glorfindel wrote:Incidentally, I forgot to mention, I have started writing my first novel. It's a work in progress but I'll get there one day

What were some of the major differences you noticed between ASL here in the US and sign language across the pond? Well, as every spoken language has its own signed langauge it is, as you can imagine, extremely varied. I have picked up a few signs that I like better from other countries than what we do and I have begun to incorporate them in my everyday.
Did you have to make any major changes, or minor changes in your communication style? I need more clarification here. I don't understand the question?? With whom and where? I mean, obvs the answer is yes but I think you are going somewhere specific with this
Is it important etiquette to make sure your hands are in good condition? Actually, yes.
Are there things (like bright nail polish, or a loud manicure) that are frowned upon? Yes, it is inappropriate, unprofessional, and unethical to have long, or brightly colored nails. It would be like trying to read an important text with violent polka dots swimming through it in a random pattern.
What kind of extra care do you give your hands? And is there a daily routine you have to keep them loose and un-sore? I wrap my wrists in a moist heating pad every night without fail. It keeps everything loose enough to sleep and be ready for the next day
What's the longest interpreting appointment you'll make? (Unless time isn't an issue, but I know for myself I only have so much time before my brain is fried, and I imagine your hands take a real beating in addition to the brain tax.) There is a two-hour max that is standard in my profession, anything over two hours requires a team of interpreters. If you are doing tactile interpreting for Deaf Blind clients then you may even have three interpreters for the day depending on the clients linguistic needs and the complexity of the topic and they are all teamed even for 30 minutes.
Have you done any translating, in addition to interpreting ? You know, I think one of the most interesting things I learned in my masters degree program is that in reality, the division between translators and interpreters is a construct that doesn't make any sense. I translate all the time, directions, difficult English text of any ilk, test instructions you name it. A lot of the translators also interpret every day.
