I don't believe I've ever given it a try. I enjoy long walks and beaches, I suspect the sum would be at least equal to its parts :)

Not at all!

I've always admired your bigheartedness and how when a film hit home for you it really seemed to land hard. You take things to heart that others might shrug off. I expect in your work you're probably no stranger to thankless tasks and yet I've never known you to be bitter. In fact you always seem to have a hopeful attitude even when things are rough. Your a wonderful dad, of that I'm quite sure. I think mostly your the kind of guy whose actions have a positive effect on those around you, even if it's not altogether obvious or immediate. You also may be a kid at heart :)

Thanks!  I may have to have my wife post the "dark side" of Steve :)

Can one of the mods move these Dr. Smirnoff Melfi posts into a new thread so that the greatness is easier to find in the future??!!

I quite like this game: "Smirnoff Stares Clearly Into Your Soul."

You're not one to do things in half measure. When you take something on it's not just to see if you can do it, but how well you can do it too. It seems to me that you prefer to reach a high level of competence in many skills than mastery in just one and as such there's definite beginnings and ends to you interests in a given area. You have an adventurous spirit and prefer to blaze your own trail than be guided along an existing one. Socially I see you as a pretty laid back guy, but you also enjoy getting out there on your own, going at your own pace. You respond most to characters on similar philosophical journeys to your own and you appreciate fine craftsmanship in all things.  :)
