Morton Fox's journal

My first entry was on preparations for Anthrocon 2002. Back in those days, Livejournal still used invite codes and I'd only just gotten an invite code from digeri the night before.

I don't think my answers to these questions will be all that surprising. I don't look forward to Monday, although usually, it isn't that bad. I look forward to Saturday because it's the start of another weekend.

Sledge Hammer. He might not do anything terribly helpful, but at least it'll be funny and violently destructive. :)

That's actually not an answer that fits the "afoul of the law" part of the question since he's a police detective. So if I need someone from the private sector, my choice would be The Equalizer for that 80s cool factor. I'm surprised I still remember those TV shows.

I haven't had many jobs. I've only had three and the first two were for pocket change, really. So I'll answer newspaper delivery. I delivered the New York Times on campus for one semester. I did that every Saturday and Sunday for $36 per weekend. The worst part was having to wake up at the crack of dawn. The second worst part was the weight of the Sunday papers. On the plus side, there were always a bunch of newspapers left over so I got a free copy every time and after about an hour's work, I had the rest of the day to do as I please.

I don't have text message service in my calling plan. Actually, I prefer to use wireless web. I can access Twitter, Plurk, Friendfeed, Livejournal, and much more using Opera Mini, although interaction is limited because it's hard to type on the keypad.

No.

Stay up late. I always seem to do that, like I'm doing now, for instance!

Yes. When I go to a restaurant, it's nearly always on my own unless I'm attending a geocaching event or going to an after-gig meal.

Addendum: I read some of the other answers to this question. I don't think eating alone is any better or worse than eating with others. It's different and it is what it is. I can say that there are significant trade-offs for having company along. There's more planning to do, people might be too late or too early, and there's sometimes one person in the bunch who is being annoying and making a big issue of my food photography. Also, splitting the check can be tricky.

Why would one want to do that? It sounds like a raw deal too. You did all the changing; the celebrity didn't have to do anything and probably wouldn't go along with it anyway.
