(Glommed from Laura, who got it from Old Beeg.)

What time do you get up in the morning?

No predicting. Left alone, I wake up around 8:30, but I'm usually not left alone.
Diamonds or pearls?

One tiny diamond, left earlobe.
What was the last film you saw at the cinema?

Can't remember, but as usual, I got mad at somebody for chattering.
What is your favorite TV show?

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, followed by HOUSE.
What do you normally have for breakfast?

Tea, maybe a thing of Muscle Milk, multivitamin, CoQ10, fish oil capsules.
What is your middle name?

Undivulged.
What is your favorite cuisine?

Whatcha got?
What food do you most dislike?

The octopus slices that come with the sashimi platter. Before he died, I used to give them to the cat. Now I just throw them away. If I wanted to eat rubber, I'd do it less expensively.

Also, the particular kind of stinky cheese that smells like feet.
What is your favorite chip?

I so rarely eat them anymore... what's got the highest salt content and greatest dip capacity?
What is your favorite CD at the moment?

I only listen to my iPod in shuffle mode, so I don't really think in albums anymore. Nikka Costa's Can'tneverdidnothin' seems to be the one whose songs I never skip.
What kind of car do you drive?

None. Thinking of getting one of these.
What is your favorite sandwich?

I don't really eat sandwiches anymore, either. Offhand fantasies would be either a really good Thanksgiving sandwich (turkey, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, stuffing, on sourdough) or some kind of New Orleans-style pulled pork thing.
Qualities I despise most in other people are…

Willful ignorance.
What are your favorite clothes?

Whatever I most recently got from Eddie Bauer. Currently wearing the chocolate-colored sherpa vest I got as a Chanukah present whenever the weather's warm enough.
If you could go anywhere in the world on vacation, where would it be?

With the family: Cape Cod
With my wife: Traveling through Europe
By myself: An archipelago adjacent to the southeast coast of Finland.
What color are your eyes?
Hazel. Usually.
What is your favorite brand of clothing?

Eddie Bauer, but once the weather's warm enough, I'm getting a Levi's jacket to replace the one I only owned for a few weeks
Where would you want to retire?

Paris.
What is your favorite time of day?

6:00 PM, when I get home and hide around the corner from grinning toddlers yelling DADDY!
Where were you born?

Los Angeles.
What is your favorite sport to watch?

I don't get watching sports.
Sock Sock, Shoe Shoe or Sock Shoe, Sock Shoe?

What maladjusted schizoid likes having one tied shoe and one bare foot?
Cash, credit card or debit card?

Debit card, until it runs out. Then credit card.
Pepsi or Coke?

Don't care.
Cats or Dogs?

Cats.
Are you a morning person or a night owl?

Neither, anymore.
Pedicure or manicure?

The occasional haircut.
Do you prefer funny or mushy cards?

Storebought? Funny.
Homemade? Either.
Any new and exciting news you'd like to share with everyone?

Nope.
What did you want to be when you were little?

Musician, marine cetologist.
What do you have in your trunk right now?

No trunk. All kinds of crap in my bike panniers, ranging from sugar-free sports drink packets to bike parts and laptop accessories.
What is your best childhood memory?

Oh, I don't know. But my earliest is the moon landing.
What are some of the different jobs you have had in your life?

Gas attendant. Construction grunt. Pipeline patroller. Composer. Graphic artist.
What is your favorite holiday?

Thanksgiving.
What is your favorite dessert?

Offhand: Tarte tatin at the Cafe du Monde in Quebec City.
Where is your favorite get-away?

Quebec City, maybe Provincetown.
Have you ever been to Africa?

No.
Glasses or contacts?

Contacts, until they suck all the moisture out of my eyeballs. Then glasses.
Have you ever been toilet papering?

No.
Have you ever been in a car accident?

Not sure. Been in a bank robbery, though.
What is your favorite day of the week?

Not sure. Definitely not Monday through Thursday.
What is your favorite restaurant?

Cafe du Monde, Quebec City.
Favorite flower?

You know, the pretty one with the colors.
Favorite movies?

Sorry, I can barely remember any.
Favorite Pastime?

Pass.
Favorite ice cream?

Anything seriously, seriously caramel.

Come to think of it, I'd like to add "jar of caramel and a spoon" to my "favorite dessert" answer.
Favorite fast food restaurant?

I don't really do fast food. I just feel too lousy afterward.
How many times did you fail your drivers test?

None.
From whom did you get your last email?

Not counting spam, from the DP of my new film, asking about high-res footage for his demo reel.
Sandals or tennis shoes?

Depends on the weather. I grew up with nobody who wore sandals, but have been slowly converted by spouse. I still feel odd about it, though.
Which store would you choose to max out your credit card?

Travelocity.com.
If the speed limit is 60, what is the fastest you normally drive?

70
What is your bedtime?

Varies wildly.
Whose response to this are you most curious about?

Mine.
Last person you went to dinner with?

My wife, special occasion, at Artisanal.
What are you listening to right now?

Naptime whines slowly subsiding in the next room (update: wrong!), airplane out the window, women conversing in the kitchen, room tone.
What is your favorite color?

Something in the darks and earths, or possibly the spot of brightness that gives it all focus.
How many tattoos do you have?

None. Can't think of one I could live with in twenty years.
Smooth or crunchy peanut butter?

The archetypal peanut butter moment isn't the eating; it's the first despoiling of a fresh jar. Smooth is much better for this.
What is your favorite drink?

Things I can no longer have, like kir and Thai iced tea.
