Guitars, keyboards, vocals, tiki bars, margaritas, palm trees... advil... Picture it - the first 70+ degree day of the year, me out on my balcony, the ritual end-of-the-day de-stressing. Drink in hand, feet up, island music in the background, feelin' good. I'm somewhere between awake and asleep; at that point where I'm not even sure. Couldn't have been any more than a couple seconds I had closed my eyes when I swore I heard a piece of paper being slid under my front door. Who knows - I might have imagined it. So I dragged my lazy carcass over to the entryway and, sure enough, saw a little tri-folded sheet of paper stapled shut. I opened it up and promptly tore the paper in half, that damn staple always ruins everything... Seems that the semi-secretive self-appointed Mind Over Matter street team has chosen yours truly for yet another *psych exam*, for before my very eyes appears a series of probing questions. I found them way too amusing to ignore, so... 1. Given name: -Christopher Wagner Hall (easy enough) 2. Date hatched: -August 4th, 1973 (easy enough) 3. Say, for example, you're browsing in the supermarket, searching in vain for the cheapest raman noodles when suddenly you reach WAAAAYYYY to the back of the display rack and pull out a little dust-covered curvy-shaped bottle. Having watched way too much TV, well, you do the inevitable (after cautiously looking left & right), and.... *POOF* out pops a genie that's taken the form of your old high school baseball coach. Basically, after giving a series of meaningless third-base-coaches-box hand signals, he explains to you that he will grant you ANY ONE wish, BUT... at that expense, the instant your wish is granted, you turn into a Galapagos tortoise. What do you do? - Easy - I wish for Catherine Zeta-Jones to turn into the hottest damn Galapagos tortoise you ever done seen in your life who's madly in love with me. 4. Height: - Between 6'2" and 6'6", depending on what 7-11 I'm in. 5. Eye color: -Hazel/green/bloodshot
6. Why do you always wear those damn Hawaiian shirts onstage? - GREAT question. Ya know, I can never get that gig/laundry synchronizing down. Hell, you should see what I wear to WORK every day!!!
7. Most likely to be seen at: - Tiki Bar, Top Dog, Rock Bottom, Fox & Hound, The Office Tavern, General Davis Inn, Bahama Breeze, Bill's Olde Tavern, Wendy's, Wawa.
8. Most likely to be shot at: - West Philly
9. Most likely to succeed: - That dangerously extroverted girl in high school who always wore business suits to class.
10. What do a near-sighted gynecologist and a puppy have in common? - They both have a wet nose.
