Familial Questions
1. What was your family like? My family itself wasn't too bad, if a little traditional. I still call them regularly to see how they're doing.
2. Who was your father, and what was he like? My dad's name is James and he's a decent guy. Played football in high school and still goes to all the games every year. Definitely an old school Good Ole' Boy from the South.
3. Who was your mother, and what was she like? Mary. She was a cheerleader growing up, and she and my dad met while he was playing football and she was cheering for him. She's a homemaker now, and, while she didn't get me really, she's a real sweet woman.
4. What was your parents marriage like? Were they married? Did they remain married? My parents are still married, amazingly enough. They're old school, but they seem to really like one another, so I guess I can't knock it.
5. What were your siblings names? What were they like? My two brothers are named Mike and Jamie. Both older, and kinds of pains in the ass, although good in their own way. Regular brother types, I guess.
6. What's the worst thing one of your siblings ever did to you? What's the worst thing you've done to one of your siblings? Typical sibling pranks on both sides. Once I cut out the asses of Mike's jeans. That was probably the worst I did to him.
7. When's the last time you saw any member of your family? Where are they now? I haven't actually seen my family in person since I was about sixteen. I'd love to see them, but I'm not going back to Mississippi unless my life depends on it. They're all still living their lives in my hometown. I do talk to them plenty enough, though.

7. What is your worst childhood memory? When I electrocuted that bully and the fallout from it.

7. What is your worst memory from adolescence? Most of middle school and high school in big, fat ass lump.
