9 – What were you looking at before starting this questionnaire?

A lot of different things. I'm multi-threading right now, maintaining a host of conflicting, usually argumentative personalities on a host of different internet forums, blogs and newsgroups. Current topics include: martial arts, empathy, Bear Grylls, energy legislation, ways to cook a tuna steak and, well, this. I was also reading Generation A and trying to work out whether Dougals Coupland's characters actually have characters, or simply alphabeticized lists of defects. They all sound the same. They all sound like Douglas Coupland. Betwixt these things I was changing the dressing on a beautiful set of burns.
