Only one more batch of questions after this set!
We'll start with Missy's questions:
1. What do you think of STP getting back together?
I love it. I never thought Scott Weiland was a good fit with Slash and the rest of Velvet Revolver. I love Weiland's 70s glam side, which was totally suppressed by Velvet Revolver.
STP never received the respect they deserved. Everyone was too busy fawning over Nirvana (rightfully so) and Pearl Jam (yuck).
2. When did you last get a good night's sleep?
If your definition of a good night's sleep is eight hours or more, the last time that happened had to have been when I was sick a few months back. I function fine after five hours or so a night, so I feel like I get a good night's sleep every night.
But if my body totally stops working when I turn forty, I guess I'll be proven wrong.
3. HD or Blu-ray? Why?
I guess I would have to go with Blu-ray since it won the DVD war. But I won't be investing in either format anytime soon. I can't remember the last time I watched a DVD that wasn't a children's DVD and while my DVD collection isn't massive, it's large enough that I wouldn't want to upgrade my movies for better resolution.
But then again, we don't have HDTV, either. So don't listen to me.
4. What did you think of Bill Belichick's comments on spygate?
It would appear that Bill Belichick has been misinterpreting the rules cheating since 2001. I still believe his one-game suspension was too light (should've been at least six games if not an entire season). But since Roger Goodell knew of these past indiscretions when he levied the fines and suspensions, there's nothing more to do. Even though Belichick won't publicly admit he was wrong, I think it's time to move on.
Now the allegations of his players practicing while on IR? That's an entirely different can of worms.
5. What's your favorite quilty pleasure?
Knit One, Pearl Two! Quilters in the house hollah!
My current guilty pleasure is the Big Taste Taco from Taco Bell. It has "crunchy red strips" and "creamy jalapeno sauce." And it's very yummy and cheap (99 cents).
Because sometimes I still eat like a college kid.
6. How would you deal with another baby?
I don't think I could deal with another baby unless I grew a third arm or an extra head. But then I'd be living the rock star life on the Freakshow Circuit, so it wouldn't matter.
7. Whom would you most like to see at OzzFest?
While I do enjoy some of the bands that have appeared at OzzFest (Sabbath, Pantera, Rob Zombie, and a few others), most of that stuff is too heavy for my taste. So I'd like to see an entirely different genre at OzzFest.

Here are Beastmom's questions:
1. What do you think of bounty hunters?
At one time, I thought it was a pretty cool gig. You get to carry a gun, capture fugitives, and kick in doors. Who wouldn't love to spend their days kicking in doors?
2. When did you last say, "I too should be a bounty hunter?"
It would have been before I watched HBO's Family Bonds and learned just how unglamorous the bounty hunter lifestyle really is.
3. Artificial turf or grass? Why?
Grass is safer for athletes, it's prettier, and if you have talented groundskeepers, they can mow some really cool designs in the grass.
But I would love to replace my grass with artificial turf.
4. What did you say to yourself when you first saw Ella?
"Do I really want to get involved with a stripper?"
Kidding!
I said something along the lines of "She's hot. I should go over and talk to her. She's looking over here. I should go over and talk to her. She just looked at me again."
"I hope she comes over and talks to me."
5. What's your favorite stretch of road to drive fast on?
School zones.
I'm a boring, law-abiding citizen. When I drive, I set the cruise control to 3-5 miles above the speed limit, so I'm never driving fast. I'm just too damn paranoid.
6. How would you get rid of a snake if one got in your house?
Does Animal Control charge money to get rid of animals? If so, I would probably arm myself with a broom and a trashcan and try to nudge the snake into the trashcan, and then set it free outside.
But then again, a few days ago I was ready to wrestle a water buffalo over $3.
7. Whom would you most like to whack with the Chuck E. Cheese Gopher-Mallet-Of-Death?
The founder of Chuck E. Cheese's.

Finally, it's Mandy's turn:
1. What do you think of Ultimate Fighting?
Not my scene. I'm not into ultimate fighting, boxing, or anything like that. Guess I got my fill of watching men punch each other from watching wrestling as a kid.
2. When did you last put your foot in your mouth?
Let's see… when did I last talk to someone?
I lack the filter that says, "Don't say that, dumbass!" whenever I'm about to say something stupid. This is one of the reasons I don't talk much.
3. Maggie Seaver or Mrs Keaton? Why?
Mrs. Keaton always seemed a little bit uptight. Maggie, on the other hand, looked like she'd be ready to go on the kitchen table.
4. What did you regret NOT doing in college/university?
Completing the final semester and a half needed to obtain my degree.
(And if I've lied to any/all/none of you about this, I'm sorry. I'm still ashamed that I was so close and failed to get my degree.)
5. What's your favourite vice (your own)?
Drinking.
6. How would you like to see George W Bush spending his retirement days?
I'd like to see him return to baseball. Maybe he could run the Red Sox?
7. Whom would you most like to sit down with you at a dinner party (living or dead)?
Living. Dead people would stink up the room.
