Steak--a thick, good cut of meat, rubbed down with olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and maybe a little rosemary--grilled about 5 or 6 minutes on each side so that it moos at me a little
4 things you may not know about me:
Once, while playing a game in college, I convinced a whole room of people that my family's motor home fell into a crevice in the earth caused by a tornado/earthquake while we were on vacation in North Dakota (loosely based on a true story).
My whole life, until recently, I've had a secret desire to be a truck driver.
In high school I wrote a screenplay parody of Bill & Ted's Most Excellent Adventure (The name of which I'll withhold to protect the star cast members) where two girls went back in time via a refrigerator sized present to gather personalities for their church youth group's Christmas Presentation. And we filmed it. And showed it to the whole church. It was pretty ridiculous.
I took a rifle shooting class for a PE credit in college and got an "A" . . . so . . . don't get on my bad side :)
And I'll copy Jackie who copied Meredith and ask you, you and you to answer the questions too (but only if you want to).

Awesome! I'm obviously not much of a disciplinarian or you would have had this finished a loooooong time ago. Don't let it happen again.
I'm so glad that you linked a picture of the camel crickets. Although that picture does clearly depict their size, creepy factor, or their ability to jump real high and fast.
I don't remember any story about our motor home falling into a crevice, I'd like to know what true story your false story is "loosely based on"
