1. James Lipton or Elvis Mitchell?
2. Fender or Gibson?
3. Elvis or The Beatles?
4. Batman or Superman?
5. Red or green?
6. Red or white?
7. Irish, Scotch, Bourbon or Rye?
8. San Francisco or New York City?
9. AL or NL?
10. Cable or satellite?
My answers:
1. Elvis Mitchell
2. Fender
3. The Beatles
4. Batman
5. Green and extra spicy
6. Red, preferably from Italy
7. Irish
8. San Francisco
9. NL: If you've got a DH, you're not playing real baseball.
10. Satellite
Scary--I only differed on #7, since I love rye, especially in a Manhattan, but I like the Irish. A top-notch dark rum (such as Zaya or Ron Zacapa Centenario) trumps them all, though.

2. Fender, but some of my favorite sounds are Gibson.
3. Beatles
4. Superman
5. Red. Unless I'm in New Mexico with a friend who says "You have to try the green here."
6. White. And it's got to be something fruity or sweet. (Kind of like me.)
7. Scotch, vandalised with sugar, water and ice.
8. New York City
9. NL
10. Cable now. Satellite in zee past. Maybe in zee future too.
"6. White. And it's got to be something fruity or sweet. (Kind of like me.)"
Philistine.

Posted by: Monkey Brad at July 26, 2006 09:29 PM1. Say what? I should know them because…?
2. Obviously, Freddie Fender; I love “Wasted Days and Wasted Nights”. But seriously, didn’t Elvis play a Gibson? Whichever one Jimmy Paige played (Gibson?)
3. Do I have to choose? OK; Elvis by a whisker.
4. Which Batman, the original comic book crime-fighter dedicated to toasting the bad guys? The original TV show Batman with Adam West? The first brooding, self-doubt Batman movie Batman, Michael Keaton, or the latest Batman movie Batman Christian Bale? Or the cartoon series Batman? I would definitely choose Superman; a clear mission with all those great powers…
5. Most definitely both red and green Thai bird chilis; taste great in my Pad Thai.
6. Most definitely Italian Reds, preferably a Brunello or Sangiovese.
7. Most definitely Single-malt Scotch, preferably Glenmorangie 18-year old, on-the-rocks with a splash of sparkling mineral water (the Scots moan in agony over the bastardization of the grand drink!)
8. Most definitely NYC; haven’t been to SF and have zero desire to go.
9. Being a lifelong Cubs fan, the NL.
10. Whichever gets me the most channels at the lowest cost. I’m waiting for the day when either can offer an individualized a la carte capability for each customer. And I mean a la carte in the literal sense, where I can pick each and every channel I want, not some tedious, force-fed “package” or “bundle”. But I understand the business decision not to do so.
