WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW? Can't say I've watched much TV lately.

WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? The computers aboard ship have no need for mouse pads, but when I was a child, I had a picture of the milky way galaxy on mine.

FAVORITE MAGAZINE: "Water Polo Weekly"

FAVORITE SMELL: Hot coffee

WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD: Helplessness

BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD: Accomplishment ... especially when it's something a Vulcan has said can't be done.

THINGS TO DO ON THE WEEKENDS: Well, I don't get 'weekends' these days, but when I do have some free time, I like to spend it with a friend, watching a good water polo match.

FAVORITE SOUNDTRACK: Nothing specific ... I like soft jazz, you know, the kind of thing that just kind of floats in the background.

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THOUGHT OF WHEN YOU WOKE UP THIS MORNING? That I'd have to go to engineering right after breakfast, and see if Trip had finished the overhaul of the warp engines, so that we could leave orbit. I think we're all getting a bit restless.

DO YOU GET MOTION SICKNESS? No, not at all.

ROLLER COASTERS DEADLY OR EXCITING? Exciting ... the more loops they have, the better.

PEN OR PENCIL? On those rare occasions when I have to 'write', I prefer a pencil.

HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE? I try to be prompt when answering the comm, so if it rings more than twice, you know I'm either sleeping, or in the shower.

FAVORITE FOODS: A nice thick steak, with a loaded baked potato.

DO YOU GET ALONG WITH YOUR PARENTS? I always got along great with my father ... Mom and I ... well, we had our moments. They've both since passed on.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME? No.

CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA? Now that all depends on what I was planning on doing, and what form the vanilla or chocolate took.

CROUTONS OR BACON BITS? They both have their place ... croutons on salads, bacon bits on baked potatoes, with cheese, of course.

DO YOU LIKE TO DRIVE? A car? Not particularly, especially if it means driving in traffic.

DO YOU SLEEP WITH STUFFED ANIMALS? Not since I was five.

IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY KIND OF PET, WHAT WOULD IT BE? A dog ... Porthos has been a faithful companion to me.

IF YOU COULD BE ANY TYPE OF ANIMAL WHAT WOULD YOU BE? A dog ... they have it pretty good, if you ask me.

THUNDERSTORMS, COOL OR SCARY? Cool, especially in the mountains, where the thunder echoes on forever.

IF YOU COULD MEET ANYONE DEAD OR ALIVE, WHO WOULD IT BE? Zefram Cochrane. Although I met him as a child, I'd like to see him again, to show him how far we've gone with his Warp technology.

FAVORITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK: I'm not much of a drinker ... an occasional beer is about it for me.

WHAT IS YOUR ZODIAC SIGN? You know, I have no idea.

EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI? I don't like broccoli.

IF A GIRL ASKED FOR THE SHIRT OFF YOUR BACK, WOULD YOU GIVE IT TO HER? Of course I would.

IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB YOU WANTED, WHAT WOULD IT BE? The one I've got, captain of a starship.

IF YOU COULD DYE YOUR HAIR ANY COLOR, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Actually, I did color my hair once ... it was whitish-blonde, cut so short, that it spiked, and the tips of the spikes were bright red. Of course, I was 15 at the time, and that kind of thing was all the rage.

IF YOU COULD HAVE A TATTOO, WHAT AND WHERE WOULD IT BE? I have one, but it's a private matter.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN LOVE? Yes.

DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM WEDDING: Nothing fancy, just a few friends to share the special day with.

WHAT IS ON YOUR WALLS IN YOUR ROOM? A few pictures.

IS THE GLASS HALF EMPTY OR HALF FULL? Half full.

ARE YOU A RIGHTY, LEFTY OR AMBIDEXTROUS? Righty, except when I'm playing Water Polo ... being ambidextrous when playing has it's advantages in most sports.

DO YOU TYPE WITH YOUR FINGERS ON THE RIGHT KEYS? Hardly ... good thing I don't have to type often.

IF YOU COULD BE ONE GARDENING TOOL, WHAT WOULD YOU BE? What an odd question.

WHAT'S UNDER YOUR BED? Probably some of Porthos' toys.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE NUMBER? I don't have one.

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CAR? An 8 year old 'special edition VW Bug', commemorating the 175th anniversary of that very unique automobile.

WHAT IS YOUR DREAM CAR? After 'driving' a starship, there really isn't anything out there that I'd rather be driving.

FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH: Water Polo

SAY ONE NICE THING ABOUT THE PERSON WHO SENT THIS TO YOU: Doctor Phlox is remarkably gifted when it comes to understanding the human psyche.
