He answered the questions and then asked for 5 participants to be interviewed.  Foolish man that I am, I stepped up and became number 5.  Little did I know that he&#8217;d ask such <em>tough <\/em>questions.  Oh well, here goes.<br \/>\n<strong>1. Today you are being executed (for a crime you didn&#8217;t commit, naturally). What did you request for your last meal?<\/strong><br \/>\nWow, that&#8217;s a tough one.  I can think of a number of great meals, but one thing is certain.  I&#8217;d tell the prison chef to take the night off and have my wife cook the meal for me.  In 12 years of marriage, I can count on one hand the number of bad meals I&#8217;ve had.  I&#8217;m a huge fan of &#8220;N Noodles&#8221;.  You know beef-n-noodles, tuna-n-noodles, etc.  Her meatloaf is awesome as is her potato soup and ground beef vegetable soup.  That being said, I&#8217;d probably want prime rib, grilled medium, French fries (I love fries), corn on the cob and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.handelsicecream.com\/home\/index.html\">Handel&#8217;s ice cream<\/a>.  Maria would fins a way to marinate or otherwise season the steak so that it was absolutely out of this world.<br \/>\n<strong>2. You&#8217;ve got a weekend free and money is no object. You can&#8217;t leave town, but you can do anything you want in the city where you live. What do you do?<\/strong><br \/>\nCan&#8217;t leave town?  Well, I&#8217;d get a room in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.columbus-bed-breakfast.com\/\">Harrison House<\/a> bed and breakfast (I&#8217;m assuming we&#8217;ve got a sitter. :-).  Maria and I like to go out to eat, so we&#8217;d go out to eat at <a href=\"http:\/\/rjsnappers.citysearch.com\/\">R.J. Snappers<\/a> and probably a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cameronmitchell.com\/\">Cameron Mitchell<\/a> restaurant or two (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cameronmitchell.com\/restaurants\/restaurantinformation\/index.cfm?rid=9\">The Fish Market <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cameronmitchell.com\/restaurants\/restaurantinformation\/index.cfm?rid=6\">Cap City Diner <\/a>come to mind.)  We&#8217;d spend some time shopping at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eastontowncenter.com\/\">Easton<\/a>, a trendy upscale mall that has the feel of a town square and we might visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fpconservatory.org\/\">Franklin Park Conservatory<\/a>.<br \/>\n<strong>3. Who was the most influential person on your life when you were a kid? How did they influence you?<\/strong><br \/>\nThat&#8217;s a tough one.  I think I&#8217;d have to say my friend Wayne McKay in High School.  He was a year behind me and moved to Maumee OH before my Junior year, I think.  I was decidedly unpopular.  The guys my age on my little one block street were <em>very <\/em>popular and I was always trying, sometimes successfully, to worm my way into their activities.  Well, about the time Wayne moved into town, I was finally coming to grips with the fact that they did not want me around.  They were starting to drink too, which made me nervous.  Wayne came to town and he just wanted to hang out with me.  For some reason, he and I clicked and I had a friend that I could trust and talk to about just about anything.  In hindsight, I don&#8217;t think I was as good a friend to him.  After High School I went to college and he went to work.  He was a DJ for a company that did High School dances for a while and eventually found his way into a job as an assistant stage manager on an around the world cruise in the late 80&#8217;s.  We kept in tough for a while, but I lost him about 12 or 15 yeas ago.  I think about him every now and then and wonder what he&#8217;s up to.<br \/>\n<strong>4. Your house is on fire but thankfully is everyone is safe. However, you only have seconds to get out of the house. What one item do you take the time to save on your way out?<\/strong><br \/>\nMan, first I&#8217;m being executed, now my house is on fire!  One item, huh?  Well I&#8217;m torn between the sentimental and the practical.  The practical side says grab my wife&#8217;s PC because it has all of our finances on it.  The sentimental says gab the scrapbooks.  My wife is an avid scrap-booker and we have about 12-15 awesome books chronicling our life.  I think the PC would win because it&#8217;s close to the door and it also has our digital photos on it.  (If I had time to go back I&#8217;d get the garage door up and get my 1960 Thunderbird Convertible out too.)<br \/>\n<strong>5. If they made a movie of your life, who should play you?<\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;m not big on actors and stuff, so this was tough.  I guess I&#8217;d say Keanu Reeves.  He&#8217;s about my age (3 years older) and he&#8217;s done serious, deep roles (Matrix) but he&#8217;s done goofy stuff too (Bill and Ted&#8217;s Excellent Adventure.)  I like to think that I&#8217;m a pretty deep and serious person, but I have a goofy side too.  Probably a lousy choice, but I can&#8217;t think of anyone else.<br \/>\nWell, there you go.  So the deal now is that the first 5 comments get to be interviewed to.  I&#8217;ll give you 5 questions and you post the answers on your blog or in the comments of mine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jared posted an interview another blogger did of him on his site.
