Re: Esta es la Well CXXII: Diego - Digging my way up like The 33!
What are your thoughts on classical music? Do you have a favorite piece or composer?
Do you have a favorite pair of socks?
Seymour and MJ are coming over for dinner. What do you cook?
I listen to classical a lot less than I should. Don't we all say that?
My favorites are Chopin, Vivaldi and Beethoven. Mozart I've never dug much into and Bach just isn't for me.
Favorite pair of socks? All of those who are blue, black or white and with no patterns for Christ's sake. Can't stand goofy patterns in socks.
What would I cook for MJ and Seymour? Definitely a Chilean food, like some nice Empanadas, or maybe Porotos con riendas (stewn beans with spaghetti, pork sausage and spices).
Not exactly hypocaloric, but awesome.
Hey Diego!
What's your all-time favorite movie, and what do you love about it?
What album have you played more than any other album, regardless of whether it's your favorite? Why do you think it's your most played album?
How important is raising children to you?
Who's (whose?) comedy do you relate to or appreciate the most?
What is the band / artist that you've loved forever but nobody knows about, and you want to shout from the rooftops, "LISTEN TO THIS!"?
Hey I6!!
Not much of a movie guy, but my favorite movie is a toss-up between Pulp Fiction and Revolver. I'll spare you the Pulp Fiction love and go to Revolver which is not that well known; it's a extremely complex movie which got awful reviews everywhere; to me, it just makes you think and help you build a stronger version of yourself.
It sounds strange, but that's how I take it.
My most played album is Metallica's Master of Puppets. Just because I love it and discovered it when I was 12 so it has a timing advantage. But I rarely listen to it anymore.
Nowadays my favorite album are Dogman by King's X, Scenes by Marty Friedman, and the almightly Toxicity by System of a Down.
I really like the idea of becoming a dad someday. However, it's a bit hard to rationalize about it because Chile is quite a ****ed-up country for being young nowadays.
Salaries are poor, job opportunities are slim, blah blah. But it's definitely important for me, it's not a secondary thing at all.
I like some latin comediants, but I relate the most with political American comedy. I love how brutally stingy it can be and you don't find that anywhere else IMO. Love George Carlin, Bill Maher, Bill Hicks and the great, late Patrice O'Neal who wasn't exactly political but was just as awesome.
King's X!!! Nobody grooves and crushes like them at the same time. All their albums and particularly Dogman should be mandatory listen for anyone into Hard Rock, simple as that.
Compared to other places where you've eaten it, how is the chili in Chile?
Mild.

Chile isn't exactly a pepper-crazy country like México or others. Our foods in fact are very mildly spiced and very tourist-friendly as a consequence.
