What is your personal motto?

Not the most original, but effective, nevertheless:  Honesty is the best policy.

'Nuff said!

What's your favorite type of donut?
Submitted by tomatshonino.

I don't think I've ever met a donut I didn't like.   However, when it comes to favorites, I have 2 (naturally).  The first would be the "tiger tail."  For those of you who don't know what that is, it's a twist made with plain and chocolate batters.  The best of both worlds, if you ask me.  The other favorite of mine is the bavarian-filled.  It's a hole-less donut topped with a layer of chocolate, filled with bavarian cream.  MMMmmmmmm.  I could talk about donuts all day (and eat them too, unfortunately).  I found the following photos from my favorite donut haunt The Donut Man off of Route 66.  Yea, it's a hike, but fortunately, it's just a couple miles from my parents' house.  Incentive to visit more often, indeed!

P.S.

Donut Man, you owe me for the shout-out!

Look at the first post you ever wrote on Vox. What important developments or changes have occurred in your life since then?
Submitted by Alexandra.

Since that was a couple of years ago, there have been some significant changes.  However, the main thing would probably be that I have a different job now -- thank God!!

Who was the meanest teacher you had in school?

A substitute teacher in grade school named Miss Klein.  She had serious power trip issues and sometimes denied us permission to leave the class to go to the restroom.  She was eeeeevil.

What was your first car?

This definitely warrants a visual:

66impalasedan

- Not the convertible.

- I didn't have it in the '60's, I had it in the '80's

- Yes, it was a BOAT

- "Luxury" is hardly the word to describe it
