Several times, but only in the background behind newscasters, coming out of my workplace when cameras were there, etc. Oh, and once I got to do one of those two-second "What do you think of blah blah blah" with some hard-haired interviewer wandering up and down the downtown bus mall.

It's hard to focus on just one character because part of what defines a character to me is his or her relationship to other characters. With that in mind, one of my favorite TV characters is Hawkeye Pierce from M*A*S*H. He was quick-witted, funny, irreverent, and juvenile, but he was also a caring doctor, true friend, and confidant to everyone.

Charles Ingalls. I don't imagine that I'm the only one out their with "father issues," so it was always a nice to see a father who had both the time and the drive to impart his children with caring wisdom. And, damn... that guy could cry!

I'll say Samantha Stephens. She was smart and always tried to think her way out of a problem, but when she had to teeka teeka tee she would.
Adam Proved Bewitched's Mortality*: Same question
*This refers to Adam's birth being a possible "Jump the Shark" moment. I know he was actually a warlock.

Emma Peel. Beautiful, capable, heroic. Perhaps she has become enhanced through the mists of time. I wanted to be like her, but somehow it didn't turn out that way.
APBM,
When you're on an airplane, do you pay attention to the attendants giving the safety review?
I fly so infrequently, that I do watch and listen as they go over the safety instructions.
Aviation Propeller Balloon Mig,
Do you like puzzles, and if so, which is your favorite?

Word-find puzzles are still associated in my mind with lazy, happy childhood summers down the shore. (Just seeing a book of them on sale at the airport makes me imagine sand in my shoes and gulls crying. Nowadays I really only do puzzles on long trips, and that's likely to be the one I reach for first. In a pinch, I will do crosswords, which I absolutely stink at.)

Well, my wife is vegan so, within my house, that pretty much makes me vegan as well. Left to my own devices, however, my own diet is a little less stringent. As a general rule, I don't like to eat any animal that wouldn't, if given the chance, eat me.

Several, mostly as an auto passenger, and once when I almost drove into a (small) tornado (it was at night). I think I handle fairly well in the moment of crisis, and postpone any panic until after the fact.

No, never thought I would die. I did fall asleep while driving once and hit the guard rail. Darn anti-histamines! (I only take non-drowsy decongestants now)

That would be the original Star Wars trilogy, hands down. Loved them to death and all the hours playing with the toys. Loved the creatures to from the wampa to Jabba to the Rancor.
