Mr Gould...

What's the worst thing you've ever done to someone? Barring, of course, anything the statute of limitations hasn't run out on yet.

Politically, I'm still a libertarian. Regarding recent events, I think that Edward Snowden is a heroic whistleblower, and I applaud the recent trend towards legalizing gay marriage.

Regarding the environment, I'm more worried that we might end up in another Ice Age than that the Earth might heat up a little more.

As for my personal life, I'm still employed full time for a decent wage. That alone is reason to be thankful.

I'm still living in Sweden, and the Swedish winter darkness is limiting the operations of my mind. I swear I lose several IQ points. But I make due.


eudaimonia,

Well, when saying it was my biggest interest I didn´t mean to say I was particularly successful at it.
So I understand this is your first teaching job? What do you teach?

Yes, it´s about very few very simple techniques. But I think there is some more to it...it´s also some kind of philosophy.

Uhm, the selection of songs follows the question "What songs can I do with my limited singing skills?" rather than my musical preferences.
Did some country-esque duets lately - with the guy being on the rough, dirty side and the girl doing the beautiful stuff, if you know what I mean (think Cash/Carter). Also, I am butchering some Tom Waits songs.

My first, yes. I will be teaching mathematics to year 11 students (15 to 17 will be the age range).

A very tricky question.

A strong candidate for my worst act would have been to participate in the bullying of an intellectually disabled child when I was in primary school.

Another candidate would have been my reaction to a revelation of sexual abuse when I was in my early 20s. It is not that I did anything bad; it was just that I did not do enough.
