If the Jets got rid of the Sanchise and could get any active QB to play for them this season, who would you want it to be?
Where does the name Flanzo come from?
If you couldn't live in the area you currently live, where would you move to?
- TEBOW! But, seriously Aaron Rodgers. - My last name, someone just called me it one day at football practice and it stuck. - New Orleans, Amsterdam or Galway.
Any bands you adore live but whose work you don't otherwise listen to? Which one of the Charlie's Angels? Do you prefer the originals or the remakes? If you could only eat meat or never eat meat which would it be?
What's the worst show you've ever been to (that you actually wanted to go to beforehand)?
George Clinton had an awwwwwwwwful performance about 5 years ago in NYC at BB King's. I mean, truly terrible. I almost wrote him off completely since I assumed he was finally too old to bring it anymore.
Thank God my dad forced me to go see him again, because he was phenomenal. Must have just been a bad night or something.
- Italian - Impossible to answer, but the three meals that I'm best at cooking myself are: sausage (sweet & spicy), broccoli rabe (family secret), parmesan cheese, garlic & oil over home made egg noodles (bangin'); lobster ravioli in home made vodka sauce (not that shiz you buy in a jar) with baby shrimp and assorted spices; sunday sauce (family recipe). - Jameson on the rocks, although I have been drinking a lot of Makers lately. - Tough. I like so many different styles, and there's no single author whose entire literary catalog I absolutely love. I'll say John Milton, only because Paradise Lost is probably my favorite book ever. - I dunno, I've always been a big fan of the lyrics to Librarian. And I had a crush on one of the girls who worked at my university's library, so I guess that probably played into it. Specifically from that song:
What is it inside our heads that makes us do the opposite Makes us do the opposite of what's right for us? 'Cause everything'd be great and everything'd be good If everybody gave like everybody could
- Fall, probably. I don't have a car (well, I do, but it's up at my parent's house since I don't use it and it would likely just get robbed a lot sitting on my block), but when I did I used to routinely go on aimless drives listening to MMJ and eating a scoobie snack. Fond memories pulling over to the side of the road and sitting on a cliff listening to those guys.
Any bands you adore live but whose work you don't otherwise listen to? Which one of the Charlie's Angels? Do you prefer the originals or the remakes? If you could only eat meat or never eat meat which would it be?
- Umm, not really. There are some bands whose live performances I listen to more often than their recorded stuff (like Phish), but I don't really have bands that I only listen to live. - Originals, Cheryl Ladd (I've been asked this before, oddly enough). - OM NOM NOMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Preferences: Paper clips or staples? Candles or incense? Umbrella or raincoat? Curtains or blinds? Snooze button or no snooze button? PB: Crunchy or smooth?
Random: How many pillows are on your bed? Do you wear a watch? Do you wear any jewelry on a regular basis? Do you like your job? Have you ever broken any bones? (If yes: Which? How?) Who is the coolest person you know?

- 1 - Um, I have a watch I wear for nice occasions, but it's reallllly nice so I never wear it haha. - I have a necklace that holds a few things on it that have special meaning to me, and I used to rock the double-ice - I love and hate it. I love the fact my job is rewarding, that the projects I build are things that can literally save people's lives. And I love that for the most part every day is different when I go into work. I hate that grown men and women behave like children, that people disrespect me solely because of my age, and how it's common for people to flat-out lie to you for no reason other than to f*ck you over. - Hah yeah, a lot. Shattered an ankle when two football helmets sandwiched it, broke my nose twice (once in a fight, once catching an elbow playing basketball), broke all my fingers except for my thumbs and left index finger, broke my hand, broke my foot and never had it diagnosed (so my foot healed incorrectly and has this weird bump in it). Bonus points for tearing both rotator cuffs, right MCL and ligaments in my right ankle. - Depending on your definition of the word "know," Keith Hernandez.
These four questions were asked in rapid succession by my swimmers tonight and I figured they we're random enough for bmotm
- SNACK PACKS!!! (I don't really eat either, but when I was little I would've shanked a b*tch for taking my snack pack) - Basset hound. hahaha I realize some people find that annoying, but I love it. - I'd want to backpack Europe for a year. - And I can't Roo shower? Just spray the shiz out of myself with axe or something and pretend to fall into a fountain.
-do you have anything on the walls in your bedroom? -if you could buy one big item for your mom and dad where money is not an problem, what would it be? -what is something that makes you mad we wouldn't expect (ex: don't say idiots or yankees fans )? -what was your favorite grade in school? -what job would you want to have but think you probably would be shiz at? -what do you like on your hamburger sandwich?
Edit: I'm changing my answer to 'yes' since this effin' photo won't work. It was Nick Mangold...with a huge beard. I find big bearded men to be cuddly and cute, SUE ME.

- I have four items on the walls of my room (all nicely framed, I'm not 11 years old after all):
My Mom bought my brother the actual Abbey Road cover photo and gave it to him and gave me this one. Kind of a hokey family thing I guess, but I like it.
The last is an original poster from the Beatles at Shea Stadium that my Dad gave me when I graduated college with a card that read "I lost a bet to your mom, way to not f*ck up!"
- Besides "retirement"? A house in Cape Cod of their choosing. - People that walk slow in NYC. I don't know why it doesn't bother me outside the city, probably because I'm more relaxed and not speed walking, but people who walk slow make me inordinately insane. Like, I envision pushing over old women who are blocking my path sometimes, and then snap out of my deluded state to realize how ridiculous I'm being (in my head). I never push through people or anything, but I will loudly say "excuse me!" from time to time. The weird thing is I always leave with enough to time to make the trip 3 times, so I just speed walk and then wait for like 20-30 minutes for meetings and stuff. - 12th. I was a Boss. - Surrogate mother - Cheese, ketchup, that's it unless I'm feeling festive and I'll put bacon on it.

Agreed.
How many countries have you been to? Which states have you visited? Do you still have any of your childhood toys? What was your favorite toy growing up?

ahh this is me totally!
- you mentioned you have a brother? older/younger? do you have other siblings? - if you could go back to your H.S. graduation, would you do anything differently in terms of college/major/career path? - if you could domesticate any animal in the world and keep it as a pet, which would you choose? - what's your biggest guilty pleasure?
Small, crowded indoor show or huge, wide open outdoor show?
Drums or bass?
Jazz or classical?
Opera or ballet?
Nickelback or Creed?
Edit: Nevermind on question 3 - I just saw the post where you have a Jay-Z poster in your room. Framed, of course.
These first 3 are tough.
- Youuuuuuu sonuvabeeech. Abbey Road. - I listen to Zepp more, but I go on Floyd binges like no other. I think I'll say Floyd. - Nas (I just think that poster is really cool, but I've always liked Nas more than Jiggaman) - Depends on the band I think, I've done both and love it, and I've also done both and hated it. Gun to my head I'd rather be outside. - Drums - Jazz - Opera - I'd rather Zeus hit me with a lightning bolt than answer this question.

Agreed.

- A lot. Like in the 20-25 range, maybe more. My parents always put a premium on travel when my brother and I were growing up. They saw how close-minded and ancient the views of people in our home town were and didn't want us growing up in a bubble. - 38, haven't been to Alaska, northwest US, and some areas of the midwest. - I have crates (plural) of teenage mutant ninja turtles and ghostbusters toys. - TNMT and ghostbusters toys haha. I alternated between Peter Venkman and Michelangelo for halloween until I was like 12.
I need to get a new copy of Fade to Black. I lent it to a cousin and never saw it again.
Speaking of:
- What is your first memory of Jay-z? Listening to him or knowing who he is or anything like that.
I had listened to Ready to Die with my cousin, and was hooked immediately. I didn't understand what all the lyrics meant, but his flow and timing was something I identified immediately and was drawn to.
But I didn't really like other rap for some reason, just that one album (I was also 9 when it came out, so was very much in that "play something relentlessly until something new and amazing comes along" stage). Then the same cousin picked me up from school one day (a true "HOLY SH*T" moment in little Flanzo's quest to be cool) and Reasonable Doubt was playing (specifically 22 two's). I asked him what it was, and subbed that in for Ready to Die like nothing happened. I was the first elementary school kid to almost be suspended for sharing music with explicit lyrics with my class.
Yup, my first real Jay-Z memory is sandwiching 22 two's in between a Barney tune and a Raffi sing-along in 4th grade.

- Younger, and Rybo (his name is Ryan) is my only sibling. - Yes, I'd bring a sports almanace from the 00's with me like Back II The Future and build a Biff-like empire, only I wouldn't be evil. But on a serious note, I would've gone to the same school so I have the same friends I do now, I just probably would've tried harder and been an English major. - Tiger, then I'd dress up as He-Man and ride him around NYC posing for pictures. - Probably what I call club EDM (Alesso, Afrojack, Tiesto, sh*t like that). Look, I know it's repetitive and a lot of it isn't all that skillful, but sometimes I just like to rageface at a club to some blinkie lights and lasers while a bass line beats my eardrums into submission. Plus, the women dress nice there, and by "nice" I mean "not at all."
