You guys have Aladdin's Flying Carpets?!?! I'm so jealous. We don't have those! What are they like? Maria, dont be jealous, its like a circle round ride you see at little town fairs, only made up to look like the carpets. Not very thrilling at all. -Val Oh, OK. I thought it'd be like the beginning of the Peter Pan ride flying over London town. That's so cool, 'cept still not worth the massively long line with screaming kids in it.

Ok, my first philosophical question: What is the secret to a good marriage? What surprised you most about being married? Do you want kids? How many? When? Boys or girls? Would you gender select your kids if you could? What do you have against going to the movies? Did the movies do something to you? Is it all the goo on the floors? What is the thing you are most proud of about yourself, either a quality or an achievement? What are you most grateful for in your life? Why? What do you think of Oprah? How about Dr. Phil? Jay Leno or Letterman? Why? What is the best thing about the "good old days"? What is best about the good new days? Why do you prefer selling your own figures and buying other people's figures? Are there any of your own that you've held onto? What made you start customizing? When did you start? What tricks or skills do you think improved your customs the most? Does your husband ever tell you that your box of action figure parts looks like a serial killers lair? (Mine says that all the time.) LOL. What do you miss most about the 80s? When did you realize that George Michael was gay (I didn't until he came out. But when I look at those 80s videos, I think, how flippin' blind was I?) Did you like George's image changing album after Faith? What is your favorite George Michael or Wham song? What is your favorite 80s movie? What 80s movie impacted your view of life most when you were a child? What was the first movie you saw in the theater? OK, my fingers are kind of tired from typing on this old keyboard at my friend's store. Will write more later. Don't worry! I got a million of them for you!

Maria, I figured I would get my moneys worth and give em long funny names you know? OK, does that mean that they are really officially registered like that somewhere in some chihuahua pedigree annals? How did that conversation go with the snobby official chihuahua pedigree registrar? OK, picturing that has made me start laughing again.

Do you think it would have been funny if Joss had put the Evil Trio into the Once More With Feeling episode? -Jess He could have just expanded that We Are Gods song. LOL. I love that. Sorry, I couldn't resist. I had caffiene today. I've got Caffiene-Induced Hypomania. I swear it's a real psychological diagnosis!

Jsebold asked....You're like Glory? I would have never guessed that. Are you being sarcastic? Who would YOU say Im like ? :-)Who was your favorite evil trio member? Andrew. Jonathan is a close second cause they were both nerdy clueless bumbling fools, but funny, you know? Not evil like Warren.How many custom figures do you own now (a guesstimate)? Right now, i have about 65 in my house, with over 20 on the way :-)What's your favorite custom that you've bought so far? Thats very hard. I would have to say my FAV is still My Doublemeat Buffy made by Flobbster. I know it was a very early custom of his but its great.What's your favorite scent (ex: vanilla, lilac, etc.)? I like Peaches and Cream or Strawberry. How many brothers and/or sisters do you have? 1 Brother in Georgia and one sister who just moved to Washington. :-(Did you like Kennedy at all? No, I think she was useless.What was the first custom you bought? Not sure, I know these ... were my first ones, Jess remember me proudly showing them off and sending you email pics? How lucky was I to have my first customs be by Flobbo and Ms Big? Do you think it would have been funny if Joss had put the Evil Trio into the Once More With Feeling episode? Yes I think back to the We Are Gods song and Jonathan in Superstar. FUNNY STUFF!!-Val

Matt, I answered, check back to see if I added em to my first post :-)
GirlPower asked...
Ok, my first philosophical question:
What is the secret to a good marriage?
for the woman: Remember to give your husband a good meal every once in a while he deserves it. Never disagree with your husband in front of someone else or you might as well just kick him in the balls. Always speak pleasently about his mom. Let him THINK hes in charge all the while knowing you are.
for the man: LET YOUR WIFE SHOP. Backrubs get you favors of your OWN.... Understand that we are as particular about our purse brands and makeup brands as you are about your beer and tools, so asking us to buy generic stuff is like begging for payback. What surprised you most about being married?
Not much to be honest, only cause we had been together SO long. We worked out all the compatibility issues early. But as for the Wedding, I was suprised at how much moolah we got!
Do you want kids?
Some day, as long as they DONT touch my toys.
How many?
2 no more no less :-) Its like puppies, once you got one to clean up after, might as well have two.
When?
Soon hopefully, my hubby is 15 years older than me, so hes 42. I dont want to wait til hes an old man :-)
Boys or girls?
1 of each Idealy.
Would you gender select your kids if you could?
nah, I trust God.
What do you have against going to the movies? Did the movies do something to you? Is it all the goo on the floors?
I get clostrophobic very easily, so when I do go I try to go when its not peak time. I just really prefer a rented movie at home.
What is the thing you are most proud of about yourself, either a quality or an achievement?
Its hard for me to say overall, I try to have little goals every day. I am very proud when I sell a custom, and ESPECIALLY when I get an email after they are recieved saying it looks better in person, or whatever. That pleases me immensly. Its nice to have someone else appreciate something you spend so much time on. You know?
What are you most grateful for in your life? Why?
My husband #1. He is my Best Friend, I can not imagine my life without him, he is smart, honest, hardworking, softspoken, polite, sexy, funny, Absolutely everything I want to spend the rest of my life with. I am also very grateful that I have never lost one of my close relatives(immediate family).
What do you think of Oprah?
I hate her, I picture her sitting there on her solid gold toilet, whipeing her butt with 1000.00 bills. But I know alot of peoplw like her so, if she brings some happiness, ok whatever.
How about Dr. Phil?
Stuck up, snively, two timing, holier than though, know it all JERK!
Jay Leno or Letterman? Why?
I liked Conan better than both of em.
What is the best thing about the "good old days"? What is best about the good new days?
Im young, so I dont know anything about the good old days, Unless you mean when I was very young..in which case..I remember my rubix cube, stretch armstrong, Twirly Curls barbie, eating runts and nerds, watching saved by the bell. Ok thats enough of that.
Why do you prefer selling your own figures and buying other people's figures? Are there any of your own that you've held onto?
Maria, I dont feel like its art unless someone else enjoys it. I have always been that way. I know Ive made a good custom when, I think about keeping it (I have high standards). But no I never keep any.
What made you start customizing? When did you start? What tricks or skills do you think improved your customs the most?
I saw some websites, Flobbsters and Ms Bigs, and was in complete AWE. I loved the figs, the idea of having whatever I wanted REALLY appealed to me. So I started collecting first. All the while thinking, I can do this... But I waited a little while. I actually made my first couple of customs over Christmas weekend (cause I was off work). I was hooked from then on. I tried to DRAG my two internet friends in with me. I did manage to rope Jess :-)
Does your husband ever tell you that your box of action figure parts looks like a serial killers lair? (Mine says that all the time.) LOL.
No, he just rolls his eyes when Im in my dungeon ..I mean work area. Hes actually very supportive in that hes totally honest, if somethings crap he will usually let me know. If its great he will let me know too.
What do you miss most about the 80s?
The GREAT music!! And Lace socks!! Ohh and the Jelly bracelets, but i think those are back now..
When did you realize that George Michael was gay (I didn't until he came out. But when I look at those 80s videos, I think, how flippin' blind was I?)
I Knew the whole time, I mean Look at him?? He was TOO hot to be straight! But my friend Heather said the same thing. She had a major crush and was suprised to find out he was gay.
Did you like George's image changing album after Faith?
Love it.
What is your favorite George Michael or Wham song?
I have SO many, I liked George with Queen, his version of Somebody to love gives me chills. I loved Careless Whisper, Wake me up, One more try, I want your sex...well 90% of his stuff anyway!
What is your favorite 80s movie? What 80s movie impacted your view of life most when you were a child?
Well, Im gonna name a few that are REALLY sticking out in my head, though Im not sure If they are my to die for faves... Just one of the guys, grease 2, dirty dancing, pretty woman, cant buy me love, breakfast club,
What was the first movie you saw in the theater?
The Great Muppet caper I think.
OK, my fingers are kind of tired from typing on this old keyboard at my friend's store. Will write more later. Don't worry! I got a million of them for you! I cant wait, you really make me think :-)

Cool Answers! 1) Who was your favorite out of the Evil Trio? 2) If Willow and Tara could be part of the charmed ones who would be the sister to stay with them? 3) If Willow and Tara didn't name their cat Miss Kitty Fantastico, what would you name it? 3) If you were to throw the ultimate Buffy and Angel party, but could only invite five cast members from each show, who would you invite? And what would you serve? 4) What custom do you want to try, but will never attempt? 5) Favorite Backstreet Boy?

Lost Guardian asked... 1) Who was your favorite out of the Evil Trio?
Andrew was my fave. And I am very glad he survived in Chosen.
2) If Willow and Tara could be part of the charmed ones who would be the sister to stay with them?
Phoebe of course :-)
3) If Willow and Tara didn't name their cat Miss Kitty Fantastico, what would you name it?
Lucky (cause Dawn killed it with the crossbow)
3) If you were to throw the ultimate Buffy and Angel party, but could only invite five cast members from each show, who would you invite? And what would you serve?
Ok from Buffy.... Clare Kramer, Nick Brendon, Juliet Landau, Emma Caulfield and Alyson Ha nnigan. From angel David Boreanaz, James Marsters, Mercedes McNab, Alexis Denisoff and Christian Kane. I would serve Werewolf like they did in that Angel ep and Blood like they did in the Wish. J/K I dont know what I would serve, but I know it would be VERY hot in that room with those hunks in there so maybe ice cream?
4) What custom do you want to try, but will never attempt?
I have a list of 50+ that I want to try. But I dont think I would ever specifically rule any out. I actually set out to try the harder ones first. Cause its fun to challenge myself to see if I can pull it off.
5) Favorite Backstreet Boy?
Kevin was the older one right? He was hot.

Yeah I was thinking the whole "We Are Gods" thing too, LOL. No I wasn't being sarcastic about the whole Glory thing. But now that I think about it Glory's profile kinda does fit That's funny, both of our first figures were the same. My first custom was the Doublemeat Buffy you made for me, LOL. I really do love that Puppy Angel too.... I'm just a wee bit jealous.... lol. I don't have a Flobbster or MsBig custom yet. If you could have any Angel prop what would it be? How many customs are you working on now? I'll have more questions later.... -Jess

Which Charmed one (if they were gay) would be the best girlfriend for Willow?
Remember when Ross on Friends made the list of the top 5 celebrities he could sleep with consequence free? Who would be on your laminated list?
How did you feel Jon Stewart did as the host of the Oscars?
Are you religious? How does spirituality affect how you live your daily life?
Does your husband have any kids from a previous relationship? If so, how do they play a part in your life?
How much space in your house do you devote to your figures? How much to your custom making and storing the figures for future customs?
Do you smoke? What are your vices of choice?
Of the 7 Deadly Sins (gluttony, sloth, greed, envy, anger, lust, and pride), which are your weaknesses? (Mine are gluttony and sloth.)
Are you close to your parents? Do they live near you? How often do you see them? How often do you talk to them? What would you do the same as they did as a parent? What would you do differently?
What's the weirdest theory you've ever had about anything?
Who was your first crush? How old were you?

Jsebold87 asked... Yeah I was thinking the whole "We Are Gods" thing too, LOL.
I can see it now....in my head..
No I wasn't being sarcastic about the whole Glory thing. But now that I think about it Glory's profile kinda does fit
Was that compliment or....
That's funny, both of our first figures were the same. My first custom was the Doublemeat Buffy you made for me, LOL. I really do love that Puppy Angel too.... I'm just a wee bit jealous.... lol. I don't have a Flobbster or MsBig custom yet.
Jealous are we? I actually am working on a puppy wish angel for a commision. Thats is funny about the Doublemeat, I am glad I made your First custom though :-)
If you could have any Angel prop what would it be?
I have a suit worn by Angel which is nice, but I would really like something used or worn by Cordy from Angel.
How many customs are you working on now?
like 15 at 1 time, you know me, Ive got so much cookin at once.
I'll have more questions later....
Great I cant wait.
Girlpower asked... Which Charmed one (if they were gay) would be the best girlfriend for Willow?
Phoebe (my fav)
Remember when Ross on Friends made the list of the top 5 celebrities he could sleep with consequence free? Who would be on your laminated list?
for me to sleep with...hmm Ray Liotta, David Boreanaz, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt (before Angelina cause now hes all diseased) and George Strait (have you seen his tight wranglers?).
How did you feel Jon Stewart did as the host of the Oscars?
I am really annoyed by him, he always looks outta place...like he snuck in.
Are you religious? How does spirituality affect how you live your daily life?
I am a baptist. I try to do unto others yad yada... and lead by example. I dont always succeed with those things, but I try.
Does your husband have any kids from a previous relationship? If so, how do they play a part in your life?
My husband is older than me, but this was a first marriage for both of us, so no kids at all.
How much space in your house do you devote to your figures? How much to your custom making and storing the figures for future customs?
I have an office in my house that is also my buffy shrine and craft room. I spend the most time in this room. I have alot of comforts in here, A TV video games, leather couch, work table, computer, scrapbook supplies, custom stuff and my entire buffy collection on the walls and on shelves.
Do you smoke? What are your vices of choice?
I do not nor have I ever smoked. I drink too much mountain dew.
Of the 7 Deadly Sins (gluttony, sloth, greed, envy, anger, lust, and pride), which are your weaknesses? (Mine are gluttony and sloth.)
Ok, I will give you an example of some of these as they relate to buffy customs..
I am a greedy when it comes to getting as many customs as I can. I ENVY Scullows Custom Collection. I am Proud of my own custom collection. I LUST after Ms Bigs Lornette in Beckys collection.
Are you close to your parents? Do they live near you? How often do you see them? How often do you talk to them? What would you do the same as they did as a parent? What would you do differently?
My Mom lives about a mile away, my grandparents too. So I see them alot and talk to them alot. My parents divorced when I was young, I have never really met my dad. What would I do the same or different. Thats really hard to say cause for one I grew up in a different era, things are weird now, there are so many things you have to teach a kid nowadays that we never thought about when I was young. But for the most part I cant give this question a decent answer cause Im not there yet, you know. Everything changes when a kid comes into the picture.
What's the weirdest theory you've ever had about anything?
I have a theory...whats all this cheery singing all about...
umm.. I dont usually have theorys , I am a big fact person,
Who was your first crush? How old were you?
Patrick Swayze, I think I was 10? Dirty Dancing was out and I had a huge poster on my wall to dream about :-)
Hey, do you work outside the home? What do you do? What does your husband do?
I work as a closing agent at a title company. I handle closings for vacant land and homes.
Did you go to college? What are your academic areas of interest?
I never went to college , I started working very early (16). I did take some classes at community college for Insurance License and such.
I worked at Burdines (Macys), Winn Dixie, 2 Insurance Offices and I was also a nanny for awhile.
My husband was in the navy for four years during Desert Storm and went to College for his teaching degree.
Mattitude asked...
If you could only make customs of ONE person for the rest of your existence, who would it be and why?
Why you of course. Why? Cause I could never get tired of sculpting your abs.. :blushes a little:
