who are you named after?
my first name (connor) is from the main character in the book 'trinity' i believe, which my mom was reading while pregnant…my middle name (joseph) is after an older gentleman who along with his wife were sort of like parents to my parents when they were recently married and living in colorado.

parlour and paden both start with a p and an a. what is the meaning of this?
i named paden without having a clue i'd end up being in parlour…pure coincidence.

what are three things you only do when no one else is looking?
can't think of three, but i've yet to take a shit when someone is looking…
is it in the plans? like it just hasn't come up yet?
nothing yet, try back later…

name an animal you would be glad to eat if it had a cooler, more appetizing name.
i suppose dogs and cats…some sort of taboo about that, but it seems to me we'll get around to eating them eventually…so many of them, seems natural to eventually get around to eating those too…maybe cause they're our pets too…but that has nothing to do with their name.

if you were to find out that one of your absolute favorite beverages had a high urine content, would you still drink it?
no, urine is not healthy to drink…

why don't you look like newman?
you mean i don't? metabolism will catch up to me i suppose. the glasses thicken slowly but surely…

if you were to jump off a building (on purpose) and bounce, yet you were still alive…would you be pissed or relieved?
pissed knowing i had some serious super powers that i only now discovered…but really, i would just think the thing was cool and immediately jump off another building…don't you think that would be cool?
but… i mean…in the situation…you're jumping off the building on purpose, ostensibly to kill yourself…
or to see if i have this unique power…
so you would want your superpower to be to be able to bounce like a rubber ball?
well…i wouldn't be pissed having a super power…better than none…

[connor is smart and doesn't have a website that he maintains on a regular basis. he spends most of his time in front of his ibook creating music. he played in paden and is currently in parlour. you can catch his solo set, under the name shedding, wednesday night at artswatch in louisville, kentucky.]
