Brian

1. Compelled to make lists and press them upon strangers.

5. Homeschooling is not a hobby but I do a lot of that, too.
6. Built this website, our other website, and a few others.
7. Before TTO, discussed starting a board game podcast with a friend in our game group. He went on to work in the board game industry.
8. If ask a stranger if you can call them on the telephone, it's weird. But if you can record the conversation and share it publically on the internet, it's perfectly acceptable.
9. They stopped making good popular music when I was born, at the end of the 1980s.
10. I wouldn't have said Disney's Robin Hood was my favorite as a kid, but I did grow up to love legends, anthropomorphic animals, the middle ages, archery, animation, and folk music.
