How did you find CUF?
Can't remember exactly. I think I saw mention of it on Cougarboard. I'm kind of pissed no one told me about this place and I had to stumble upon it on my own. I was getting really sick of CB.
What do you like about CUF?
I really like that people here are (mostly) open minded. Many of you seem open to the idea that you might not know everything. I've long felt that it is healthy to look at things from multiple viewpoints and not to view the world as black and white and full of easy answers. You guys might not describe yourselves this way but that is the impression I get of many of you.
What don't I like about CUF?
Not much really. I suppose I could do without some of the smartalekiness (yes that is how I choose to spell it). Some posters seem to think they will make more internet friends if they mock someone after every post. I think maybe every third post would be more appropriate
How did you choose your moniker?
I had a mission companion give me this nickname. I've mentioned here before I lost about 40lbs on my mission and came home at 6'4" 140lbs. Fortunately, after a lot of hard work, I've managed to put on a lot more lbs of muscle. I stick with the nickname as a reminder to myself not to back down in my workout program because I don't want to end up like that again.
What do you do (other than read CUF)?
I'm a second year medical student. Not sure what kind of doc I want to be (that is always the next question). Right now I think I'd like to be an ER doc but I'll be able to make a more informed decision after I start rotations next year. Also I workout every day and I alternate between running and lifting. The time I have left I spend either with my wife and 2 year old son or watching movies or both.
How many States have you lived in?
Born in Idaho but left when I was three (good decision on my part). California until my mission (Dominican Republic). Then Utah for BYU and now I live in Arizona for med school. Wife wants to go back to UT so we'll probably end up there after residency.
What are your sports loyalties?
In high school I did cross country and track (long jump triple jump and high jump but most of all pole vault) but didn't really pay attention to other sports until I got to college. While at BYU I discovered the awesomeness that is college sports and I'm a huge BYU football fan now. I should point out that I didn't grow up in Utah or in a family with any sports loyalties so I never became a Utah hater. I have no problem rooting for them until they play BYU. I also pay attention to BYU basketball when I have time.
What's your standing in the church?
I attend most weeks. I grew up pretty orthodox Mormon and it would kill my parents if I stopped going. The church makes my wife happy and that makes me happy. I think it does a lot of good things for a lot of people.
Do you pee in the sink?
I have but I don't really make a habit of it. I do, however have a funny story about that. My wife and I were once on a double date with one of my good friends and his gf. We went to this pizza place in Park City that had a restroom in the basement. We'd never been there before but my buddy and I both had to pee so we went down to the bathroom. We walked in the door and it shut behind us and at that point we noticed it was a one-toilet restroom. He was like "that is okay I'll just use the sink" and so we did our business. When we walked out the door, however, there was a line of guys waiting to get in. I don't know how so many people all showed up in what could only have been like one minute but what I do know is that we looked decidedly queer walking out of that bathroom together. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
When your kids get older, will you do drugs with them in order to teach them a responsible approach to drugs?
Probably not.
Are you looking forward to Wuap's welcome question and what do you think it will be? Not really. Unless it is about pole vault.
Why are you so creepy? How long have you been lurking?
I'm a tall guy with a shaved head. Sometimes when I look in the mirror I think that makes me look creepy but it helps me get out of the house faster every morning. I'm always lurking....
