Where have you lived?
I lived in Kansas for 9 years. I liked the freedom of living in the country. For example, you could lure animals in by leaving out food for them. By doing that, we took in 9 dogs, 12 cats, a ferret, and 2 rabbits. The ferret wanted to live in the garage; the other animals stayed outside. The cats had plenty of food with all the mice that were around. Living on a farm, the other animals found food also. I now live inWaterloo, Iowa. Even though I have friends in town, I miss country life in Kansas.
Favorite foods? Wiener Schnitzel, really good steak that is medium rare, and grilled corn with butter.
Favorite books now and as a kid? I like action and mystery where the story is personal, but I hate romance, they ruin books.
What is one specific book you like? Mortal Allies by Brian Haig; I do not like autobiographies, but instead enjoy reading about the main events of history. My interest is focused on World War II, Vietnam, and other wars.
Favorite music? Any except opera. I love classical, hip hop, rap, rock, and I am open to new things. I do listen to the occasional country.
What is a prominent memory about your childhood? When I ran away from home. I was eight years old, and my big brother made me make a peanut butter sandwich for him. I used the loaf ends, which he does not like, and gobs of peanut butter. Because he didn't like it, he made me eat it; to get back at him, I ran away. He was supposed to be babysitting me. Eventually I was picked up by a state trouper and brought home.
What are you most proud of about you life?
Being the person that I am: caring and helping people, being myself, and not a poser.
What is your favorite drink? Cold, white milk.
Favorite candy? Not a big fan of candy.
Favorite movies? Band of Brothers because it shows a realistic scope of events and the actors are phenomenal.
If you could be a super hero, who would it be?
For a bad guy, I would pick Dr. Evil; for a good guy, I would be a Transformer.
What was your favorite toy as a kid? GI Joes.
If you had to lose a hand or a foot, which would you pick? Neither, but if I had to pick, it would be my hand.
Would you rather pierce your nose or die your hair pink? Pink hair.
Box question: Other peoples' answers suck; I want a witty one. [Walter pulls Anne Raushert over to think of a witty answer for the box question...] Walter responds, \"I would give the box away to someone that needs it.\"
Favorite long word or phrase? \"So how is life?\" and Bootylicous. What do you see in your future? I am married and I have children. There would be a bunch of little Burtises running around. I would number them, Burtis One, Burtis Two, etc.
What are your political views? Go John McCain. I have many Republican views, but I am not stuck to one party. In the upcoming election, it is important to look at the candidates, look at the real facts, and take a stand.
Do you have any more political insight? I wouldn't lose any sleep if Obama was President; I just wish Hillary would drop out. Favorite color? Purple.
Symbol? Scorpio?
Fruit? Apple: I like them really red or a sour, green Granny Smith apple. Sometimes I have the apple with carmel.
If you could learn any language completely, what would it be? German, for overseas business.
What biblical verse or story is most important to you? The Ten Commandments.
