5. Do you like eggnog? I don't believe I've ever had it.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? Probably my Nintendo 64. I remember just looking at it for aaaages with a big beaming smile on my face.
7. Do you have a Nativity scene? No.
8. Hardest person to buy for? My mother. No hobbies, really; you can only buy the same mascara for so long...

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Home Alone. Its immediate sequel, too.

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? No.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Dunno; sprouts? Stuffing? Leftovers somehow always taste bette than the real thing.
16. Clear lights or colored on the tree? Usually clear; this year we've gone with red.

...dot com bold typeface rhetoric. You go clickety click and get your head split. 'The hell you look like on a message board Discussing whether or not the Brother is hardcore?
Holy Cow, Geoff, someone hijacked Capo's identity! The thief responded to the Christmas Questionaire and being that the true Capo is a proclaimed atheist, and man of high principles and convictions.....well, I believe he wouldn't participate in anything that would remotely show any religious origins or associations. Please ensure us that our identites are safe!

It doesn't matter that Capo doesn't believe in God. What's important is that God believes in Capo.
