  I keep getting someone else's calls. She seems to have a lot of problems in her life- should I do anything?

  @cheebdragon Wow, you’re right. My voice mail just says, “Please leave a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.” I should change it to, “Hi, you’ve reached Haleth. Please leave a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.” I know most people put their name in the message, but somehow I always felt weird about it- like what if someone calls that I don’t want to hear from. I kind of… I’m not sure that it whether it would be right or wrong to let one of her callers know about the collection agents. I really want to ask one of these people, “So seriously, what the hell is the deal with Amanda?” But I know that would be totally inappropriate. I wish I could contact her so she could put a stop to this stuff herself, but her last name is really common, like Smith or Jones common.

  What would you cook to impress a lady?

  Whatever you cook, make a test run of it beforehand. It doesn’t have to be something amazing, just well-prepared and well-balanced. If you want to really impress her, you should time it so she comes over when you’re partway done cooking, with maybe 15 minutes or so left. This way she gets to see you in action, and you can have her do some semi-useful task like stirring or opening the wine. If you like wine, that is. I would totally do this if I had a lady friend. Pick something for everyday drinking, like $10—$20, but an interesting grape or region. Wines from up-and-coming regions or the New World are more likely to taste good relative to what you pay for them. My favorites are Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand, Verdejo from Spain, Torrontes from Argentina, Shiraz or Shiraz blend from Australia, and Malbec from Argentina. Spending a few minutes cooking together will make the event feel more casual and intimate, and it will ease the awkwardness of sitting down to a fancy dinner. If she isn’t ready for a sweeping romantic gesture, this will help warm her up to the idea gradually. But here are some things that are easy and classy. – Prosciutto or pate with fancy cheese, fig spread, and crusty bread or tiny crackers. You literally don’t have to cook anything for this appetizer. Just eat them. The flavors go soo well together, and it tastes great with red wine. – If you make a mixed green salad, add fruit like grapes sliced in half, apple pieces, raspberries, or sliced strawberries, and pieces of some nice, salty cheese like feta. If you want, add walnuts, and serve it with a vinaigrette. It’s a lot more interesting, flavor and texture-wise, than a regular salad. -Cook an entree that is specific to your heritage. If you’re Irish, make corned beef and cabbage. If you’re Italian, maybe take it a step further and cook something specific to your region of Italy. Etc. It will be yummy and it will get you both talking, plus it’s great to learn about your own background. Or just anything you are especially great at making. -You can totally buy dessert. If you go to a nice bakery and pick out something good, that’s completely fine. Most ladies like tiramisu. If you serve dessert with coffee, it is verrry classy.

  What is it about sports that gets fans so wrapped up in it that they'll behave so passionately?

  I think those guys that get really crazy into the game are also kind of drunk. When I watch sporting events sober, and something awesome happens, I’ll be like, “Yes! High five!” When I’m drunk, it’s like, “HE-COULD-GO-ALL-THE-WAY! YEAAAAAH! TOUCHDOWN! WOOO!” and I jump into the nearest person’s arms and probably knock over my beer. Once I settled down, I feel bad for committing a party foul but pumped about seeing an awesome play. (I just pretended I was watching the Ravens.) If you know what’s going on, professional sports can have really edge of your seat moments, and a lot of the time something completely unexpected will happen.

  Have you tried sensory deprivation? What were your experiences?

  Wow, that sounds really trippy- like a crazy version of the patterns you see when you close your eyes. It sounds like a way to relax and think some really deep thoughts. The only context where I’d ever heard of sensory deprivation before was in BDSM. I used to work at a store where some of the items we sold were hoods and things for that purpose. I’ve heard it can be a hell of a mind trip, like you “let go” from everything, but it’s definitely not for beginners.

  Can Thanksgiving be Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie?

  No pumpkins? No bueno! I saw an awesome recipe for pumpkin-banana-meringue pie on the food network and I really want to try it out this year. – Cut the tops off two small pumpkins and bake them for (15?) minutes at 350 until they are soft on a flat pan. Scoop the insides out of the pumpkins. Put three or four whole bananas on the pan- leave the skin on, and bake for 10–15 more minutes until the bananas are soft. Take the skins off the bananas and put them in a blender with the pumpkins, some sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, milk, and egg. Pour it into a pie crust and bake some more. Whip some egg whites until stiff peaks form, and pour on top of the pumpkin-banana mixture, then bake until it is brown on top. My backup plan is apple crisp or pecan pie. But it’s really not Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie. :(
