Well the list goddess has spoken so :

Copy (not forward) this entire e-mail and paste it onto a new e-mail
that
you will send. Change all of the answers so that they apply to you.
Then,
send this to a whole bunch of people you know, INCLUDING the person
who sent
it to you. The theory is that you will learn a lot of little-known
facts
about your friends. Remember to send it back to the person who sent it
to
you.
 
NAME AS IT APPEARS ON YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE: Stephen Booth

PARENTS NAMES: Anthony Arnold Booth and Annette Elixabrth Booth (nee
Bate)

BIRTHPLACE: Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, England

WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING NOW? I tend to have a few few on at a time.
Willow files Volume 2 (Buffy episodes novelisation), Book of Four
(Buffy Original Novel), Virtually Normal (analysis of the politics of
sexuality).
 
WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? My Mouse and my hand, it's an Electronics
Boutique basic black with built in wrist rest. I do have a Buffy
mouse pad but I don't use it. At work I tend to use either a SUN
Microsystems pad or a basic plain blue one, I tend to be moving from
console to console so use what evers there.

WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE BOARD GAME? Buffy, US edition. The UK edition
is tital crap. Any UKers out there, it's worth spending the extra to
get the M&B game, don't bother with the Susan Prescott unless you're
playing with 8 year olds.

FAVOURITE MAGAZINE? It's a toss up between 'Buffy the vampire Slayer'
(US format), 'Curve' and 'Dreamwatch'. SFX, OUT and Cult Times are in
there as well.
 
FAVOURITE SMELLS? Coffee with Hazlenut shot or that smell you get when
you first break the seal on a new jar of a decent brand of instant
coffee.
 
FAVOURITE SOUND? Silence.

WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD? Seeing photographs of the aftermath of the
killings in Sampit
(http://www.abooth.demon.co.uk/Indonesia/indonesia1.htm but be warned
that they are very graphic, very real and very disturbing, this link
takes you to a warning page with a link to the page with the actual
pictures on) and knowing that there's nothing you can do and it's
going to keep happening.
 
WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING?
"Tea!!!!"
 
ROLLER COASTER--SCARY OR EXCITING? Scary, very scary. I hate roller
coasters. Both times I've been on one it wasn't so much the motion
that bothered me as the poles and stuff whipping past my head and
nearly killing me (on the second occaision it was a different ride to
the first one and the operator said that they'd heard people (over
about 5'7") expressing the same view of the first one I went on but
had not had any similar complaints about this one, he was lying). I'd
probably be OK on one of them ones that's just a verticle drop. My
favourite ride is the dodgems. I'm also quite good at the shooting
range type of stalls, I'm good at correcting for shonky sights (I
learned to shoot properly then perfected my skills disposing of excess
ammunition).

HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE? As quickly as possible.
 
DO YOU LIKE TO DRIVE FAST? Don't drive, no license. On lessons I
tended to just keep pace with surrounding traffic, I don't
particularly like driving fast but I don't dislike it either.
 
FAVOURITE FAST FOOD RESTAURANT: Burger King
 
STORMS--COOL OR SCARY: Cool. But I'm told it's a lot worse when you
get hit.

WHAT TYPE WAS YOUR FIRST CAR? 1961 Morris 1000 (aka Morris Minor, aka
Moggy) van.
 
IF YOU COULD MEET ONE PERSON, DEAD OR ALIVE, WHO WOULD IT BE? Amber
Benson (so long as I could be cool and together rather than a total
fanboy idiot).
 
FAVOURITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK? Chivas Regal 12 year old Single Malt
Scotch, in tea.
 
WHAT IS YOUR ZODIAC SIGN? Aries (I'm a typical Aries, childish,
immature...)

DO YOU EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI? NO! Don't eat Broccoli
 
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB YOU WANTED, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Writer/Director working in LA. Probably some acting on the side (bit
parts, cameos, bloke in background type) as well.
 
IS THE GLASS HALF EMPTY OR HALF FULL? Half empty.
 
FAVOURITE MOVIES? Cruel Intentions, American Pie, Can't Hardly Wait,
Opposite of Sex, Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Third Man, Day The
Earth Stood Still, By Dawns Early Light, Threads, Titan A.E., Chance
(haven't seen it yet, heck Amber hasn't finished shooting it yet, but
what I've heard of it it sounds like something I'll love).

ARE YOU A LEFTY OR A RIGHTY? Right handed, Left of centre politics.

DO YOU TYPE WITH YOUR FINGERS ON THE CORRECT KEYS? Kinda 4.5 fingers.
 
WHAT'S UNDER YOUR BED? The floor (I sleep on a futon)

COFFEE OR ICE CREAM? Coffee.
 
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE NUMBER? .38

FAVOURITE SPORT TO WATCH? Tae Kwon do
 
SAY ONE NICE THING ABOUT THE PERSON WHO SENT THIS TO YOU: Tony, love
the fanfic.

PERSON YOU SENT THIS TO WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO RESPOND? Pete
 
PERSON YOU SENT THIS TO WHO IS LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND?   
I'd guess Tony on the grounds that he sent this to me so has no real
need to respond.
