Well, I may answer them, but it doesn't have to be publicly...

[joshwriting]

Because I asked somebody else... (and she reserved the right to not answer them at all, too!)

"Ask me 4 questions. Any 4, no matter how personal, private or random. I have to answer them honestly. I have to answer them all. In turn, you post this message in your own journal and you have to answer the questions that are asked of you."

1) Susan and I met at a Halloween party on October 22nd, 1988. http://photobucket.com/albums/v496/joshshaine/?action=view¤t=susanellen.jpg

2) I live a mile south of the border of Mass and NH. I grew up in NH. I have only summer camped and visited Maine.

3) How old do you THINK I am? Next year, I will be a perfect square.

4) Silliness is good... Forest Green

Which is why the matching cars, yes?

Yes. Pleiad and Monteverdi.

And Susan is the cat in that shot... Her sister is the witch.

1. Boxers or briefs, man?
2. If we had one day together what would you want to do?
3. What clothing do you picture me in when we talk? (that sounded dirty but seriously!)
4. What's your favorite animal?

[joshwriting.livejournal.com]

1) Briefs - it is the lcosest I get to doing legal work like my sibs...

2) Have more. Play games together. Um... WORD games - like Big Boggle and Scabble and Jotto!

3) A knee length skirt, light green in color...

4) Siamese Cat, I think

1. If you could go anywhere right now, where would you go? (and would you miss me when you get there...)
1b. Is quoting song lyrics for a question cheating?
2. Why do you do what you do?
3. Do you dream in black and white or color and do you usually remember your dreams?
4. What's your favorite Mirmie related memory and why?

[joshwriting.livejournal.com]

1) far away, to a place for which some certain folks would not have my number. And no, because you would move in down the street.

1b) I did not make the rules. I do not enforce them.

2) To look myself in the eye in the morning. www.geocities.com/josh_shaine/insideout.html is why I do it.

3) B&W, I think. But I am not sure as I remember so few.

4) Talking with you about schools - and having you decide you want to stay where you are. Because it means you are more content. And that makes me happy.

Four questions is hard.

1. If you had a 24 hour period in which you could do anything, what would you do?

2. Any regrets?

3. What is one thing you want right now?

4. If you were a green package, where would you hide?

[joshwriting.livejournal.com]

1) um... be indecisive about what I wanted to do? Know my own mind? Spend it with all of my friends, individually. If I can't see all of them at the same time, individually, then spend it with one of them. (World peace is ahead of that, but let's not get absurd!)

2) Generally no. Pain caused by inability to do/think/be, I suppose.

3) Change without ripples.

4) In my office, carefully camoflaged.

Bonus Question:
X) What were you doing awake at 7am?

[joshwriting.livejournal.com]

Going to bed, right after posting. Dealing with emotions, albeit ineffectively.

1) When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you became a "grown up"?

2) How close did you come to that? Why didn't you take that particular job (assuming you didn't)? What makes it important enough to you that even now, however many years later, you're still doing it (assuming you did)?

3) What is your biggest fear?

4) [to come at a later date, perhaps]

[joshwriting.livejournal.com]

1) First and foremost, I am pretty sure I wnated to be a major league baseball playet.

2) Hah! Fat chance... I could not have gotten that job if my life had depended on it.

3) To die alone, to live alone... something of that sort

4) Hmm... *thinks about later dates*

4. Where did the name "Josh" come from, and why do you prefer that to your birth name?

[joshwriting.livejournal.com]

My legal name is Joseph. If you remove the ep from it, you get Josh. My Nebrew name is (roughly) Yehoshua (Joshua).

My Father's father was Joseph as well. He was called Joe. My Great Grandfather, William was called Will or William - my brother is Bill. They made a point of giving us different nicknames than the person after we were named had.

I have been Josh from before I was aware of a name at all. It is, in many ways, as much my 'birth name' as Joseph is.
