| Mostly fence, with an annual trip (or two) to Walt Disney World tossed in.
Will the NHL ratify everything recently agreed upon at the bargaining table and actually have a 2005-2006 season?

Which NHL team do you favor?

| The Winnipeg Jets. 
Calgary is a close second, though.
Do you like hockey?

| I like playing hockey (it's unCanadian not to).
What about you?

| I'd love to try it, but there's not an ice rink here.
I used to play lacrosse, however, which is Canada's 'official' national sport. Can that count at least a little bit?

| Yes... besides you like curling for some odd reason as well (which is what we use as punishment for those who refuse to play/watch hockey).
Although you don't really have to worry about being a unCanadian unless you're another American who has a secret desire to be Canadian?

| Second movement of the 7th symphony. Heartrending to listen to, full of passion and loss but the determination to move forward and make the best of things. A good metaphor for my life it seems!
What is your favorite Beethoven composition?

I'm not particularly fond of Mozart either, do you think that makes me odd?

| Not at all.
Do you have a favorite classical composer, and if so what is your favorite composition?

Rickard Wagner is ok, Edvard Grieg is great and I'm very fond of Sergei Prokofievs "Romeo and Juliet" composition. (Although Prokofiev is quite modern.)
Are you fond of musicals?
