Black--no pink--AHHHHHH!

2. What is your quest? (Monty Python geeks only.)

To make awesome graphic novels that change the way people see things.

A Goofy Movie. Seriously. Brilliant writing and direction and songs and performances. You owe yourself.

4. What book are you reading/did you just finish?

Just finished Wild Women, Welcome to Temptation and Faking It by Jennifer Crusie. Currently reading "The Turk" by Tom Standage, since I've finally forgiven him for giving exactly ONE chapter of "The Victorian Internet" over to the fact that most telegraph operators were women.

9. What superpower would you like to have? (Flight, invisibility and
super-strength are only worth half a point.) (Not that we're grading.)
