Marks

1. What kind of marks (grades) did you get in school?

I always got very good grades: A's and the occasional B (after we finished grade school where we only had O's and S's).

2. Do you have any birthmarks?

Yeah a couple of them. The only one most people know about is a little bump on my right earlobe.

3. What’s the story behind one of your scars?

I tend to fall on my right knee a lot. It has multiple scars and makes a very interesting noise when I climb stairs.

4. What do you usually use to mark your place in a book?

Whatever is at hand: comb, unused Kleenex, money, nail file...even bookmarks on those rare occasions when there is one in the vicinity.

5. What famous Mark do you most admire?

I have a bad history with this name both within and without my family.

I'll pick Mark Twain, especially his later stuff like this.
