1) What do you do for work? 1

--I help out as an unofficial murder investigator from time to time and I am also the CEO of Blood Enterprises (which is a delivery service for vampires in need).2

2) Where are you from? 3

--Heaven originally, but I passed through Hell quite a few times. However, I am currently residing in my lair in Forida…the sunshine state. 4

3) What is the one thing about yourself that you would like me to know? 5

--Well, I grew up with strong feminine influences in my life so when I say, “I know how to listen,”…I really do. Don’t get me wrong though. I do not in any way have a feminine side. I’m all male, both in physique and mental functions. (chuckles)6

4) When was your last relationship and how long did it last?7

--My last relationship was some time ago and I mean many, many years ago. It lasted a total of three long years. 8

5) What are you looking for in a relationship? 9

6) What do you think is the most important value in a relationship?11

--Trust because it can be hard to let someone into your heart sometimes. 12

8) What do you look for in a husband/wife? 15

--I don’t want someone to wait on me hand and foot; I don’t want a maid. I just want someone who will spend most of their time with me, comfort me when I’m sad, support me when I can’t take anymore, someone who can truly love me, and whom I can confide in. 16

9) Do you want/do you have any children? 17

--Of course, what man or vampire doesn’t want children?18

10) What do you do for fun? 19

--I read books, practice fighting, please my woman (winks mischievously), occasionally race four-wheelers, help my friends if they need it, and swim. 20

11) What are you most proud about? 21

--That I haven’t turned evil like my brethren and that I’ve retained who I am as a person after all these years. 22

12) Is religion important to you? 23

--It’s not important to me as it used to be. I’m a believer but I don’t see salvation in my future. 24

13) Do you follow politics? Are you a Democrat or a Republican? 25

--Human politics doesn’t concern me nor do they have any hold over me; I’m a vampire after all. We have our own political system. 26

14) Do you believe in love at first sight? 27

--No, I do not believe in love at first sight. There has to be a connection first. 28

15) What is your most treasured possession and why? 29

--My ring. It was given to me by someone who had a great impact on my life. 30

16) What is your favorite month of the year and why? 31

--February 14th, Valentine’s day, because it gives me a chance to express my romantic capabilities and I get to lavish my female companion to my liking, but ultimately to her liking since it would be her special day. 32

17) Which is your favorite book/movie? 33

--I’m afraid I don’t have a favorite book or movie, I simply enjoy them all.34

18) Which is the last book you read? 35

--Charles Darwin and The Tree of Life. It was such an intellectual read that I also watched the documentary as well. I’m an open minded person you see, so I try to be fair to both Darwin and Jesus. 36

19) Which is the one job in the world that you would love to do? 37

--I’d like to be a song producer. Music can make even the deadest souls come alive. Ha. I wasn’t talking about my own. (grins)38

20) Which is your favorite music and your favorite singer/band?39

--Rock and Classical, and by classical I mean Mozart. 40

21) Do you like animals/keep pets? 41

--I like animals; even were-wolves and other were-shifters. (chuckles)42

22) How do you spend your spare time? 43

--I enjoy visiting the local Supernatural club, doing a little deep thinking (what is the meaning to life and such), tending to my female companion should I have one at that time, and learning/experiencing new things. 44

23) Where do you see yourself in five years time? 45

--In five years I hope to increase my assets two-fold, have a wife, possibly a child, and help solve a murder or two. 46

24) If you were an animal in the wild, what would you be? 47

--I would be a lion. They are such beautiful, aggressive, and dominate creatures after all. 48

25) Do you believe a cup is half empty or half full? 49

--I view a cup both ways depending on how my life is at that moment in time. At the moment I view it as half empty since I feel that currently my life is lacking in female companionship. 50

26) If you could travel back through time, what single mistake would you correct in life? What are the deepest regrets of a person?51

--Hmm. Well, I don’t necessarily believe in correcting life. It’s not something that I would encourage since every step taken leads you in a certain direction. However, if I had to choose then I would have to say meeting the devil’s mistress, Lilith. I would erase that blemish from history if I could. 52

As for my regrets, I’ve none to share. Am I lying? Quite possibly. 53

27) You have got six months to live, what will you do first? 54

--I’ve been free to roam this earth for the past 2,000 years…you tell me what I should do within a mere six months that I haven’t already done. Nothing surprises me anymore. 55

28) Is sexual compatibility important to you? 56

--Yes, It makes things much more interesting if ones partner is compatible when it comes to sexual abilities and appetites. 57

29) Who was your hero, as a child? 58

--My mother. She was kind and strong where my father was mean and weak. 59

30) If you won a lottery, how would you spend your millions? 60

--In the past I wouldn’t have gotten out of bed for a million dollars, but since I’ve walked among humans for so long I’ve become … humble. If I won the lottery I would try to bargain with the Vampire Council to buy back a friends’ soul. 61

31) Which was the first crush you ever had? 62

--That was a long time ago. Her name was Mary. 63

32) What makes you laugh/cry? 64

--I can laugh at almost anything as long as it’s not something idiotic like that movie ‘Superbad’. I rarely cry anymore but I suppose that is because I’ve been alive so long I can expect things to play out certain ways. Don’t you dare tell anyone that either. 65

33) If you have friends coming over, what would you cook?66

--I don’t cook! Besides, all of my friends are vampires so if we’re hungry we just drop by the local Supernatural club and have a few drinks straight from the source. It’s one of these new ‘unnecessary human death prevention experiments’ the Vampire Council is conducting. The ladies seem to enjoy themselves that’s for sure. (He smiles devilishly)67

34) Describe your perfect holiday. 68

--Anywhere that the sun doesn’t shine 14 hours a day! I may be old but even I can’t withstand that much sun. So, my options are: Alaska. Throw in a woman and some Egyptian silk bed sheets and I’m satisfied. 69

35) Which T.V. program would you never miss? 70

--Trueblood. Ironic, I know, but that show is a growing favorite of mine. That Eric is hilarious; too bad he couldn’t have been real. 71

36) What is the last CD you bought?72

--You know, I think it was called Classical Collections. The artist name I can’t seem to remember though. 73

37) Are you a morning person or a night person? 74

--This should be a given; night of course. 75

38) Would you like to climb a mountain or trek across a desert? 76

--Climb a mountain, there are so many uncontrollable things that could go happen. 77

39) What adjective would a close friend use to describe you? 78

--Sensible. Passionate. Caring. Aggressive…in only good ways of course. (Grins showing a hint if fang)79

40) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?80

--Paris, France. 81

41) Into which personality’s shoes would you like to step for a day? 82

--Nikolas’s (Elizabeth’s sire) for I would have given anything to see the creature she became after her change. Rest assured, that was long ago.83

42) Who is you favorite actor/actress/celebrity and why?84

--Denzel Washington, because he knows how to act. 85

43) Who is your favorite sportsperson?86

--I don’t have one. 87

44) What is your favorite sporting activity?88

--Does sex count? What? Don’t give me that look. Sex is great for the physique, well, for those who need to work out. (smirks)89
