Have you ever broken a bone? If not, what's the worst injury you've sustained?

I broke my arm when I was three- or four-years-old... I fell off the top of a slide at the playground down the street from my current apartment.

What question do you hate being asked?

Anything about weight loss surgery. Whenever people find out that I've lost a significant amount of weight, their first questions are usually, "How did you do it? You must have had surgery?" I don't think there's anything wrong with WLS, but people jumping straight to that conclusion annoys the hell out of me. (I did not have weight loss surgery, for the record.)

Indeed, the news travels fast. I made another website recently (though I haven't actually registered anything or committed to ensuring its success), nevertheless I did make one. Gotta get critiqued somehow, here's the mockup:

What do you think? Oh, and I also made alternative banners which are chosen randomly on load. Here's one,
and here's another,
and another,
and one more for good measure.

Just a few more, I promise :)

A really detailed look at creating a web chat solution in Silverlight (with WCF Callbacks, JQuery and JSON).

There are more, but I felt that these best suited the audience. Enjoy :D

If you could do anything you want tomorrow, what would it be?
Submitted by Becca-Pink.

Tomorrow is my "Saturday," seeing as it's a three-day weekend. Whoo hoo! :) I had plans to go to Vegas, but I'm looking forward to staying home and relaxing instead. I want to get in a good workout, and I'd really like to hit the beach sometime over the next few days! That's really about it.

Out of anyone in your address book, with whom would you most like to have lunch today?

Not feeling very social today, but maybe my aunt in Washington :)

How long do you take in the shower?
Submitted by Strive2Be.

It depends on whether or not I need to shave :P If not, I need at least 15 minutes. If I do have to, then it can take 30 to 45 minutes.

If you haven't already checked it out, there is a hilarious series of video tutorials by Donnie's You Suck at Photoshop. This series has a fairly humorous tone while still being able to teach you some tricks in Photoshop. Here's the first few videos, you can check out the rest on his Youtube channel.

Are there any people you would not tell if they had food in their teeth or if their zipper were down? Why or why not?
Submitted by Charms.

Sure. If someone really annoys me and I hate talking to them PERIOD, I probably wouldn't tell them. But anyone else, of course I'd let them know! I'm not that mean.
