...if I am to believe his stories, he went to prison for 7 years (carjacking) in the 60's, was hired out of prison into a vice-president position of a small construction company, which became very successful, they tried to expand into Indiana, where he developed an environmental allergy to a corn additive or fertilizer, and thought he was dying, so he moved to Florida and started his own business, which failed miserably. Then he raised me. :D

What book are you reading right now?

Couple of months ago, I build a big pond with a friend. Out of bricks.... I'm not the person who would lay bricks to make a living but I really enjoy doing it once in a while.

Do you like playing tennis? Or did you?

Only if you consider rollerblading a sport.
Also, I'd play tennis, if someone would play with me.

I find a lot of yellow to be irritating.

Good question, what color do you generally dislike?

To pick one, it should be.... beige. For me that's the colour stands for lack of creativity. Too doll or lame. (no offense intended) Very bright colours also, like some yellows. But I must admit,there are beautiful yellows as well.

Simply mixing colours (oil paint) is something I enjoy a lot. Applying them is step two but have you ever mixed colours (to paint something) yourself?

Or do you insist that I write color instead of colour?

Color - colour, who cares :D

I actually mixed my own colour a few
months ago when painting a small
livingroom - two different shades of
blue-ish-green that had already been
mixed to get those shades, that ended
up very good looking when i mixed them :D

I love mixing colors. I paint, when I get the motivation, and it's my favorite part. I could speak in color alone, it would suffice as a method of communication. I wish I had thought of beige, beige communicates boredom. Or maybe industrial gray, the kind they paint the floor of schools with, around here. Yuck.

What is your least favorite spice/herb?
