My first name is Roch which is pronounced Rock. And, I was a B52's fan back in the day. Oh, and I like Lobster...

I do like TV. We have been using rabbit ears for over 20 years so anything I watch will be from DVD and I still buy VHS movies at yardsales. I like things like The Office, Seinfeld, Flight of the Conchords. I'm a big satire fan...

Perfect day? Family, Friends, Food, in a social setting. I don't really care where...

I think I would like to have been at Woodstock.

I love cooking The Classics. I'm a big French/Italian cooking fan. I spent two years in Italy working in a Kictchen and as a Barrista. I fell in love with the cuisine. I am French Canadian and there are many similarities to the approach to food. Love the flavors, prep time, and wine...

Growing up I loved Ken Dryden who was a goaltender for the Montreal Canadians. I was(and still am) a hockey goalie. I am a big Velvet Underground fan, because of their unique approach to music.

That's a tough one, Barbara. I hated school. The acedemic part anyway. Loved the social aspects. I was good at it when I showed up. I did get through. College also. Maybe I never had any good teachers? Maybe I was just a pain in the ****? Neccessary evil as far as I am concerned. We homeschooled our daughter for a few years. She has been at the top of her class since returning to the school system.

I guess I would travel. Where would depend on my wife. She is mobilty challenged and is restricted in what she can do.

I want people to smile when they think of me.

Drugs.

I hope to be doing what I am doing now. Cooking and drumming. Exercising, and being healthy enough to eat whatever I want.

I am a cynical optimist.

Not boring at all babetoo. I am not a reader. Not novels, anyway. I keep a pretty busy schedule, and am rarely alone. I work about 12 hours a day, and play in a band on weekends. I am also a homekeeper so, by the time I get to bed, I am spent. I try to read, but I usually fall asleep withing 5 minutes. When I do have time, I am in my music room working on percussion exercises or drum parts for the projects I am working on at the time. I think I need glasses, on top of it all. I have read one book this year. I have no favorite authors, although I did really enjoy Kurt Vonnegut's work, so I guess he could be my favourite. Thanks for the question...

I don't know how to answer that one, Alix. I wish I would have started to play the piano at a younger age. Watching my daughter play is so inspiring. She glides along so effortlessly. I'm like a big ape playing a Fisher Price plastic piano. plunk plunk plink.

sounds like you are a busy person. reading never puts me to sleep. in fact, if a really good book, i read into the night and pay for it the next day. i wish i could play an instrument. took piano as a kid. was NOT! good at it. happy turkey day.

Would you get more satisfaction from preparing a perfect meal for ten people or from teaching those ten people how to prepare that meal?

I'd love to have people cook with me. I am probably hard to follow because I am fairly scatterbrained and have probably learned some pretty bad habits or unusual techniques over the years. My daughter isn't really interested but she does hang out in the kitchen while I cook. My wife rarely cooks because I always do. But I do enjoy being busy for hours in the kitchen by myself, with music and refreshments....

So, I guess I'd enjoy both equally well. Thanks for the question.
