Q1: Where are you from? Williamstown, Ohio originally, but the USAF has me stationed in Oklahoma City, OK, USA at Tinker Air Force Base.
Q2: Best and worst thing about OTF? The best thing is the memories and your friends, but the worst is the lamers and dealing with some crossing T's and dotting I's that seem pointless.
Q3: Who out of OTF would you elect the leader of your country? Crazy Texan
Q4: What is your tagline? Whose your favorite goober? - Robert Beltran's quote from the Sci-Fi convention I went to.

Q8: With the appearance of Man In Hat - aka, Mih - and the disappearance of our famed mystery Fleet Admiral, where do you think Octavius Piraeus - aka, "Octagon" - went? I think Man In Hat did something with him. He should be investigated. At least investigated by one of the Tribune Enquirer mystery writers.
Q9: What chat themed room would you add to OTF? A MISC Sci-Fi and Fantasy chatroom with a rotating theme.
Q10: If you had IAIN-like Powers in OTF... what precisely would you do? Make some lamers disappear.... *gasp*
Q11: Why do you think OTF has lasted so long? People work hard and then get recognized... as long as good people get recognized and are at least acknowledged for it then we'll last forever.
Q12: Which smiley should The Powers That Be include next in the chatrooms? An animated rolling the eyes one.
Q13: Who IS/are "The Powers That Be"? I don't know, but Hong and CT take a great deal of time to hide them from us, so I don't even try to figure it out. It would crush their world.
Q14: What about OTF has kept you returning? No matter who has left and moved back to real life, there's always a good friend signed in.
Q15: Where were you nine years ago, and what were you doing? Babysitting as a job and in highschool.
Q16: Has Jon ever "Happened" to you? Well, Jon is the reason I'm here... so....
Q17: What memories from the last two years stick out most in your mind? My war with Cinna.
Q18: Who's your partner in crime from these last two years in the chats? Cinna and Cynara probably.
Q19: What crimes have you committed with this partner in crime? Cinna and I haven't just had one episode, but many... it's all in good fun havoc. *LOL*
Q20: What do you think the Senators really do? Attend Vic's concerts... someone has to do it.
Q21: If OTF was a real place, what would your quarters look like? A touch of old-world style with a classic look for it.
Q22: What holodeck program would you make for yourself? "Walker, Texas Ranger", some of my favorite movies, and NASCAR....
Q23: If you could choose your own clearance level, which would you want - and why? Right where I am now... I have everything I want... it's whose position am I after... *eyes you all*
Q24: What sci-fi/fantasy character do you like the most? I love my Firefly, TNG, and Voyager crews, but the main battle is between Tom Paris and Data...
Q25: And which character don't you like? Chakotay, Seven of Nine, Ro, and Deanna Troi... I will admit that I like Robert Beltran the actor now and I would probably like Deanna if I was on the Enterprise.
Q26: If you were in charge of OTF for one day, what would you do? Again with making people mysteriously disappearing....
Q27: Who do you know best from OTF? Sidne, Eagle, Robert Griffith, and Matt.
Q28: Have you met any OTF Members in real life? If so, what was it like? Sidne and I were like meant to be... Eagle is my love-sick puppy that follows me around wishes he'd have a chance with this beautiful, future country singer *hehehehe*, and Robert is good one-on-one and a lot of fun, but is kinda lost in a crowd.
Q29: Of every OTF member you haven't met, who would you most like to meet in real life? Sym and I want to have a girl's night with Cynara and Cinna. *LOL*
Q30: If you ever met Iain in real life, what would you do? Hug him.... surprise... Amanda would hug people...
Q31: Whatever happened to the Axis of Anti-Iain? They were squashed like the tiny bugs that they were.
Q32: What's your favourite part of the Blue Report? The part where you you give your fellow OTF members a different rank.
Q33: Will people ever stop blaming Hobbie? Why should we?
Q34: Who springs to mind when you hear: "That Man"? Cinna and I talking about exes. *LOL*
Q35: Is there a sci-fi/fantasy character that reminds you of yourself? Who, and why? Kaylee from Firefly because she's beautiful in her own way, but everyone views her as a little girl and in need of protection. I'm everyone's little sister in real life. I aspire to be like Captain Janeway and Dr. Crusher.
Q36: What's your take on all the imaginary couples (or triplets) popping up in the forums? I don't visit the forums really.
Q37: Man In Hat is angry of how Vic Fontaine is treated at OTF. Do you agree? I really don't. Vic can reprogram himself or throw a fit like previous holograms if he didn't like it.
Q38: What is your favorite OTF activity? The Anniversary... old friends return, newbies are confused, and fun ensues!
Q39: If Iain goes suddenly quiet in OTF, how much do you panic? None... he's a wimp. I can take him.

Q41: If everyone in OTF were to fight in "The Ultimate Showdown of OTF Destiny", who would win? Me... I have grown men on base afraid of me and a simple avatar has sent people running from me... I'll just stare them down and threaten them with my rubberbands.
Q42: What are your nicknames at OTF (aside from your handle)? Jeffy (my dad gave it to me, because I love Jeff Gordon), Sarge from my dad's unit, Canx from my unit for my flight cancelations
Q43: Did you really think that there wouldn't be a question about Naberrie / eirrebaN? yess..... *LOL*
Q44: Naberrie: a moderating influence on Iain, or an inspiration to and encourager for him? I think she's more of his victim. *LOL* She's just willing to put up with him and take most of his attention away from us... she's a strong woman. hehehehe
Q45: Who's your "favorite goober"? (We know, we know - Amanda said we had to add this one.) Iain's a jerk and I'll him crying pretty soon after I am done filling this out.... my answer is AJ!
Q46: "I don't mind yearbook questions, but this here question is Iain-like!" ? I don't even know what to say that wouldn't inflate Iain's ego. *LOL*
Q47: General comments?
