HOW DID YOU CHOOSE YOUR ONLINE NICKNAME:
I tried to use "Scribe" when I first started on the WWW and found that a whole bunch of people were trying to use it. The numbers drove me to kendevaughn which serves me since there just ain't many of us out here.
DO YOU TYPE WITH YOUR FINGERS ON THE RIGHT KEYS:
Yes. I am compelled to do as many things "right" as I can.
WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD:
A mouse. I like it that way.
LIVING ARRANGEMENT:
On seventy acres, more or less, in a white frame house with my "extended" family of five. The oldest member is about sixty and the youngest is about six. (Wilma, Lisa, Stephanie and Jennifer)
WHAT ARE YOUR PETS NAMES:
Cats: Peter, Bunny, Callie, Lucky, Daphne, Destinee, Dusty, Princess, Marmalade, Rudy, and Precious.
Rat: Clarise
Bird: Max
Dog: Liz
Fish: The Beta we call Hannibal and the others are not all named. (Stephanie named one Buttercup and three Larry, Curly and Moe.)
FAVORITE FOODS:
Rib Eye Steak (Rare) and a real
"BAKED" potato. German Chocolate Cake. Macaroni and Cheese (the kind kids like) Eggs over light. Biscuits and Gravy (Hardee's) Captain D's Fish Filets. Cream Cheese Pound Cake. . . and I could go on and on.
FAVORITE SMELLS:
Plowed earth, new cut hay and the odor of garlic when I mow it. (The garlic is better at a distance.)
Cooking Chili, Lasagne, Spaghetti Sauce but that harks back to the previous entry.
HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE:
One, if I can get to the thing.
WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CAR:
A white 1960 Ford Falcon and it was two years old when I got it in 1962.
BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD:
The one which accompanies the cutting of a peice of lumber for a project and finding that it fits. That feeling is kin to typing a page of HyperTextMarkupLanguage (HTML) and finding that it looks like you wanted it to look after it's on the Web. (I am reminded of, "There is nothing more over-rated than sexual release and nothing more under-rated than a good, healthy bowel movement.")

IF YOU COULD MEET ONE PERSON, DEAD OR ALIVE, WHO WOULD IT BE:
Issac Assimov - He was reclusive, eccentric, a prolific writer and strange enough to have been interesting.
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB YOU WANTED, WHAT WOULD IT BE:
I am retired and the thoughts of "work" send shudders all through me. I like to do lots of stuff and I could be, I'm told, paid to do a lot of what I do for pleasure. That would add a deadline, expectations and make me subject to . . .
PERSON YOU SENT THIS TO LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND:
I'm not sending this to anyone.
PERSON YOU SENT THIS TO WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO RESPOND:
I'll finish as I can get to it.
