edge?:  no

why or why not:  well, firstly even if i didn't do any drugs or
                           alcohol i don't feel i need to label myself a
                           member of some kind of club to prove to other
                           people that i didn't do those afore mentioned
                           things.  i do have an occational beer which
                           doesn't seem any worse to me that taking asprin
                           or drinking ten cups of coffee in a morning.  it's
                           legal and i have the self control to know when to
                           to stop.  labeling myself as straight edge only makes
                           me feel like i have to join the club to keep myself in
                           check because i can't control my own actions.  i
                           respect all people and their desicions as long as
                           they are reasonable (like deciding not to do drugs
                           as opposed to being wasted all the time and beating
                           your spouse).  so i think straight edge is a good
                           thing to get into if it works for you, it just isn't my
                           thing. 

Best show ever been to:  ben folds five with some guy playing
                                         comedy country songs opening

biggest regret:  getting off heroin (because i really do love heroin.
                         sweet, sweet heroin)

additional thoughs:  well, since i'm the only one that thinks in the
                                band, i have a lot of thoughts, but i won't waste
                                your time
