Have you met anyone from DDR Freak in real life? Who would you LIKE to meet?: Who would you LIKE to meet?: I met about half the staff last year in LA, and Phrekwenci & Remy in NYC. I'm still waiting to meet blue^ though!

What do you do for a living? Do you enjoy it?: I cut, fry, and package seafood for 30+ hours a week. I thoroughly enjoy it. I'm also in school fulltime for Telecommunications, which is not as fun, but I do like it.

If you had three wishes what would they be? (no wishing for more wishes!):A sense of world peace (Who wouldn't want that?), to not be so addicted to caffeine, and, uh, I WANT A PENGUIN.

Favorite Baseball Team?: Baseball has sucked since they split into 3 divisions, made the strike zone smaller than a cereal box, and started interleague play. Before that, I was a Blue Jays fan.
