When was the last time you had to speak in front of a group?  How did you feel?

Earlier this week at a team meeting. How did I feel? Bloody pissed! But that's a story for another time. Now I need to prepare to present our feature to some executives in a couple of weeks. Eep.

How well do you know your next-door neighbors?

I don't know my neighbors and they don't know me. In this apartment building, people move in and out all the time. The people across the hall from me are an Indian couple who are always leaving shoes and crap outside of the front door, while the people next door -- well I don't know who in the hell they are. I just remember who used to be there by the parties they would hold on the balcony and the constant cigarette smoke (that's been replaced by our downstairs neighbors who do the same).

What is your favorite cover song?
Question submitted by Ray.

There's so many, it's hard to pick a favorite. Of course, there's Ben Folds' brilliant rendition of Bitches Ain't Shit, Nina Gordon's version of Straight Outta Compton, or anything by Richard Cheese. I tend to really like covers of rap songs done in a completely different vein than the original.

It's hard to pick a favorite, so I just listen to the Coverville podcast and let Brian Ibott do the work for me.
