Welcome to the Nathan 101 class! Thanks to everyone who took the “How Well Do You Know Me” quiz! It was fun reading people’s answers. One person got a perfect score…and since the queen didn’t publish his name, I’ll keep his identity secret.
1) What is Nathan’s favorite movie?
The majority of you thought it was Glitter. Although Mariah Carey is my favorite singer, my favorite movie is Alfred Hitchock’s classic Psycho.

2) What is Nathan’s current job?
Most of you got this one correct. The answer is Graphic Designer. Yep, it’s been my profession for 9 years now. I love it.

3) How old is Nathan?
I knew this would throw people off. I rarely talk about my age, and actually most people think I am older. The majority of you guessed 28. But actually I’m 24. That’s okay…some days I act 50.

4) What state did Nathan grow up in?
Most of you thought North Carolina and Tennessee. I lived in Illinois for the first 19 years of my life. My partner Rodney and I moved to North Carolina for 3 years, and then moved to Tennessee last year to be closer to our family in Illinois.

5) What religion does Nathan consider himself?
Wow! I didn’t know my religious beliefs were so unknown. A lot of people guessed Atheist. No, I’m quite the opposite. I was raised Catholic and still believe in some of the teachings of the church. Deep down, I’m a very conservative person. I believe very strongly in God, and have carried a Rosary in my pocket for about 14 years now. It was sent to me by Mother Teresa and I consider it my protection from harm.

6) What is Nathan’s least favorite month?
January, for sure. It’s the longest, coldest month and filled with cloudy days. I suppose it would be very different if I lived on the West Coast or in another country, like Australia, where January is hot.

7) What did Nathan consider the worst gift ever?
HA! I loved this one. Most of you thought it was a certificate claiming a star had been named in my honor. Has anybody heard of that scam? Well, that’s never happened to me. But I did receive a homemade thong last Christmas from Rodney’s sister-in-law. Actually, she made matching thongs, one for each of us. Bleh!

What did Nathan once call the “rebirth of bad internet trends”?
Embedded WMV files that auto-play. A lot of the blogs I visited used to have them set and they would automatically start blaring some annoying music video or song when I visited the blog. Sometimes they were buried so deep, I couldn’t find them to turn them off. I wrote a detailed rant about it, and many readers agreed with me. In a matter of days, the WMV videos disappeared from a lot of blogs. I believe I helped make the blog world a better place.

9) What did Nathan dress as for the Ellen Degeneres Halloween show?
A pimp, baby! Rodney was dressed as Elton John and I was dressed as a pimp. We had so much fun at the show last year!

10) How many pets do Nathan and Rodney have?
3 pets. A lot of you didn’t know this. We have 2 cats, Purr Purr and Prissy, and 1 dog, Petey. They are really sweet animals. Sometimes cats are big snobs, but I think we really picked them well. All 3 of our pets are very loving.
