Hi my name is Tom...and this is an update.

1. How old are you? 36

Now: 45


2. What are your living arrangements? Own a 5 bedroom/2 bath home

Now: same house

3. What do you drive? '02 Toyota Tacoma....'04 Honda Accord...but I mostly drive a company car which is a Chevy Impala

Now: Jeep Liberty Limited and another Honda Accord. Mostly drive the company car, which is now a Chevy Traverse

4. Whats your favorite drink (non-alcoholic)? cranberry with black cherry


Now: I mainly drink water these days


5. Whats your favorite restauraunt? Fiesta Tacqueria (local place)

Now: Logan’s

6. How many fish do you own RIGHT NOW? 1...but I received a 29 gal tank for Christmas that I will be stocking when the cycle is complete

Now: I have no idea, really. I went from having eight tanks to just two: a 29g with maybe 15 fish and a 55g with just one.


7. What is your newest pet? beta (which my daughter named 'Nemo')

Now: some of those in the above mentioned 29g

8. Its 9am on a typical Tuesday morning...what are you doing? I'm at work in my office drinking coffee and surfin' the 'net (on company time, of course)


Now: still the same, but I’m not drinking coffee at the office these days
.

9. Why are you filling out these questions? Because you asked me to...

Now: Because I haven’t been to the forums much in the past five or six years and to see how much my answers have changed.

10. What type of music do you listen to? metal, classic rock, '80s new wave....I have over 3000 titles in my collection to choose from so you can imagine it is pretty eclectic


Now: I listen to pretty much what I did back then. Since I’ve last been on MFT I’ve had a job in radio (until the station went dark). I co-hosted a psychedelic show on Sunday night, hosted a call in show on Friday night (classic rock) and hosted a metal show on Saturday night. I enjoyed being a local celebrity and getting fan mail (ok, it was all from prison inmates).

I currently own an aquarium maintenance business (see, I've put all the good info I learned here to good use). This is a part-time gig, just something I do in my spare time for extra cash to buy things I really don't need.

Wow...I haven't seen anyone post in a long, long time with such good taste in music. I've seen several of those over the years (including Petty multiple times). Good taste...or maybe I'm just showing my age.

Why thank you :) I did have a good 'teacher' I basically grew up with all this music around me, which while im sure i complained as a child about it, I freaking love it to this day. Hahaha could be your age showing :p or you just have an excellent taste in music, like i because it certainly isnt my age showing!. I've been told by many that I was born in the wrong generation. :) Oh lord i forgot Bowie, and Lou Reed, Springsteen... yikes the more i think about it the more i know im missing LOTS on that list haha

Wow...that just show's how long I've been on this forum: Bob's old enough to drink now. Despite the fact that I'm having a birthday in two days, I'm feeling that much older now.

Oh, and as for the answer for #4...two thumbs up (one for the choices, and another for being the rebel that you are).
