I'd love to go to Pebble Beach, CA and play a round of golf.

Where is the most beautiful place you've been?

I'd have to say that my overland trip of Italy during the fall was just gorgeous. Trees were great, the weather was excellent, and the atmosphere was just perfect. I almost thought I was lost in some kind of oil painting at times.

What would be your most picture perfect moment up to this point in time of your life?

Hmm, that's a tough one. I'm going to have to go with my marriage proposal to my wife. I took her to our state Capitol building on a Saturday evening. It's really beautiful inside, and there wasn't anyone around. I sat her down on one of the marble benches and got down on one knee and proposed.

What has been the most exciting thing that has happened to you in the past year?

Jormengrund · Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2008 12:44 pm Post subject:

Well, it could quite possibly be the fact that at the end of this month, I'll have paid off not only both of the cars that we own, but also the house that we bought three years ago! Debt free in just over five years.. I'm excited! Surprised

Do you find money problems to be one of the biggest roadblocks in a marriage?

mattk25 · Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2008 3:54 pm Post subject:

Me personally, I don't stress money. My wife on the other hand does, so yes there are arguments about money. I heard money is the #1 reason couples get divorced, but I'm not sure.

Anyone following Major League Baseball besides me?

To be honest, I haven't really caught the bug this year..

I love watching baseball, and I've heard that my "local" team is supposed to have a great year this year, but aside from that, I haven't watched a game, and I haven't really heard much about it.. So I guess not as much this year, no. Sorry..

Which teams are your predictions for the World Series??

mattk25 · Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2008 8:39 pm Post subject:

Hmm! My prediction is Cleveland vs NY Mets.

Who is your favorite person from history?

Jormengrund · Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2008 12:34 pm Post subject:

In _all_ of history? I'd have to say that Edison takes the cake, with Benjamin Franklin as a close second..

Who is your favorite?

I'd have to say Jesus Christ first, but more recently I'd go with Abraham Lincoln. He overcame so much and was a great leader!

If you could live in another era, which one would it be?

Jormengrund · Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2008 3:21 pm Post subject:

I'd actually like to have been around during the Renaissence, to be honest.

I love the many discoveries and breakthroughs that came about during that time.. Even if medicine wasn't quite up to par..... Confused

What time period do you think most impacted our lives as we know it today?

mattk25 · Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2008 6:11 pm Post subject:

I'm going to have to say the Industrial Revolution. I think it has paved the way to alot of the commerce and technology we have today.

Who do you think is going to win the Masters?

Jormengrund · Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2008 7:37 pm Post subject:

The golfer with the lowest score, of course! lol

What is the attraction for sports like golf, tennis, or the like? Shocked

mattk25 · Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2008 8:37 pm Post subject:

For me it would be the challange of the sport. I watched people play golf on TV when I was in high school and thought, Ah it can't be that hard, look at those guys. Then I actually tried to play myself and realized how skilled they are! I'm a fairly decent golfer now, but the first few years were frustrating. Tennis, it's hard as well but I never caught the bug for it!

What spot in the US would you like to visit?

Jormengrund · Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2008 8:59 pm Post subject:

I've been all over the US, but I'd really like to return someday to Maine and New Hampshire at some point.

I was stationed close to there for a few years, and I loved being over there in the fall. All of the colors, and the ambience just seemed to resonate with me for some reason.. I really can't explain it better than that..

Is there a "dream spot" that you just can't get out of your memory?

mattk25 · Posted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 2:21 pm Post subject:

Hmm, I'm not sure if I know exactly what your asking, but when I was younger I used to dream about hidden rooms in my grandparents home. They could be accessed by going thru some cabinet doors and it was like a whole other home just for me. Of course these rooms didn't exist but the dreams felt so real I often wish they were real!

Do you have a "dream spot" stuck in your memory?
