My Turn: Eight Random Facts about Matt Van Stone
July 14th, 2007
After seeing IG tag Cary from Electric Guitar Review I now see that Cary has tagged me in this Eight Random Facts madness. So here we go, here are eight random facts nobody cared to know about Matt Van Stone, but will now know.
1. I recently moved to a new house and my phone is not working. I am currently on hold with Shaw technical support trying to get my phone fixed.
2. I do not have a middle name and that really shocks a lot of people. Most people assume I say that because I have some horrible middle name like Remus or something, but my birth certificate doesn’t lie. I have none.
3. Sandwiches are my favorite food. I like breakfast sandwiches, sandwiches at lunch, dinner, and as snacks. Whether it’s cold meat or PB and J, I never get bored of them. Ask my girlfriend, I have been feeding her them for two years now and shes sick of ‘em.
4. I was home schooled between grade 2 and grade 7 at which point I went back to public school. I realize now that I put way too much effort into high school. Kids… dont read this, but I still believe it was mostly a waste of time.
5. If I didn’t go down the computers/IT career path I probably would have become some kind of a wood worker. Wood working and Computers were my favorite two subjects in school. Playing guitar was my favorite outside of school.
6. I love cheesy horror movies. In fact, yesterday was Friday the 13th and I had a cheesy horror movie party! We watched Freddy vs Jason (not so cheesy) and Adam and Evil (VERY cheesy). Basically we went to the local video store and found the best worst movie we could find in the horror section completely going by title and synopsis. It was a toss up between Adam and Evil and Death Tunnel.
7. I used to be a closet GAP whore. On any given day I could be caught wearing at least one piece of GAP clothing, and in some situations only my socks and shoes were GAP free. I have grown out of that, secretly I miss the GAP, but I can never find anything there I want to wear anymore.
8. I can’t grow a beard because it comes in too patchy and that saddens me on a daily basis. It sucks to have to shave all the time, but it sucks even more knowing I couldn’t let it grow if I wanted to.
Well there you go. I hope you learned something interesting.
And now to pass the curse on, here are a few people I’d like to tag:
Dave from eightface
T.L. from indieguitarist
Wookie from GuitarToyBox
Rich from GuitarBlog
And since Cary, IG, and I all seem to read the same blogs I only have 4 to tag. But I would like to double-tag Lori from Play Like a Girl and J.P. from Strat-O-Blogster.
