Question: What do you think of teacup dogs woman carry in their purse?
Answer: I’m an all-dog fan – big and little.
What do you think about people who spoil their dogs rotten – even more so than their kids?
It’s understandable.
If a woman has sex with another woman but doesn’t have sex with a man, is she still considered a virgin?
No.
What is your definition of sex?
Intimate relation.
If you were nocturnal, what would you do all night?
I’d be a night club owner.
Are you scared of bats?
No.
Are you scared of Batman?
No, but I wouldn’t call him for help, either.
If you could be a superhero, who would you be?
The Punisher, because he has a lot of cool guns.
If you were an animal, what would you be?
A shark because they’re the highest on the food chain.
Have you run into any sharks recently?
Not lately, but I have while surfing.
As a surfer, what do you think about the waves here?
They’re fine by me … I have a long board.
Tell us something unique about you.
I’m a twin … I have a twin sister.
What brought you to Myrtle Beach?
I used to vacation here as a kid, and I decided to make it a permanent vacation.
What’s the best part about bartending?
Meeting so many decent people.
Tell us something unique about you.
I'm not like most other Jersey guys. For example, I’m not like the “my new haircut guy.”
What’s your favorite movie?
“Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.”
And quote?
“He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.”
How many mugs does it take until someone falls off a barstool?
8 or 9.
Have you seen it happen?
Twice.
Has it happened to you?
Yes, after mixing beer and liquor.
Beer of choice?
TBonz Lager. It tastes good and has higher alcohol content than most.
MySpace or Facebook?
MySpace, because Facebook was more of a college thing when I started up.
What’s the best way for a girl to get free drinks?
The easiest way is by flashing, but I’m kind of a sucker … batting the eyelashes can work, too.
Summer or off-season?
Off-season. You can actually drive and get drinks much faster.
