| sometimes I'll take some hydrogen, and oxygen and reduce to make my own water.
I knew someone who made bacon from scratch.
Do you think sarcasm is underrated?

| I think sarcasm is a delicate thing requiring skilled handling which doesn't get the proper treatment it deserves.
Don't you hate people who abuse the same comedic gags time and time again?

| They're hoping someone would get frustrated and pay the fare for them as to prevent any further hold up from the idiot that can't count out the change before entering the bus!
Although it's not always a bad thing, depending on the circumstances.
Have you ever paid the bus/rail fare for someone out of the kindness of your heart? Or perhaps to score the phone number of a girl with a cute smile.

| Because he doesn't like your math inspired fedora wearing antics.
What would you do if you were suddenly advised that you owe $100,000 to someone that you couldn't avoid paying? That is to say how would you get the money?

| I was listening to some Aaron Kernis this morning - Air - very lovely and soothing, and he is a really nice guy.
If you celebrate Thanksgiving, does your family make anything special that you look forward to each year?

| Pumpkin, usually, these days. When I was a kid we always used to have mince-meat pie.
What is your favorite food in the Thanksgiving feast?

| Sweet potatoes mashed with pears and apples, then topped toasted pecans and brown sugar, and baked; or corn pudding - tough call.
Are you going to be a host or a guest at Thanksgiving?

Is Thanksgiving your favorite holiday too?

| YES!!!!!!! I love Thanksgiving, and miss it as a holiday since we seem to move directly from Halloween to Christmas. I actually even do it twice - I go to my in-laws on Thanksgiving (Kosher - no dairy products), and then make a second dinner Saturday or Sunday with all the things I like and grew up that need dairy to make - like Pumpkin Cheesecake, Apple-Cranberry Crisp or Pear Galette.
How many desserts are too many for six people?

| Hard to say.. One year my wife baked enough pies that the pie person ratio came out to be 1/1.
How may place settings does it require to host 6 people for a Kosher Thanksgiving dinner?

| Only six, but you have to find the good dishes used for meat meals first - that is the real challenge at my in-laws house. It might be 12 if you had dairy in your dessert, but you would have to wait six hours between finishing your turkey before you could eat that dessert, and what is the point of that?
What do you do with your left-over turkey?
