five questions // BRANDEN CAMPBELL AND MICHAEL SCOTT two people, five questions, see how they stack up.// LINDSAY CLEEK
BRANDEN CAMPBELL bassist of the band Neon Trees
Recently it would have to be rainbow sherbet, just because of the tanginess and the variety — you get three in one.
India. I love Indian food. I love the music and I love the fashion. I'd like to go over there and explore and see the origin of the stuff that I like.
Metaphorically, if you get knocked off the horse you've got to dust yourself off and get back on don't get discouraged.
You'll have to look this up, but I'd buy a Nudie suit. Nudie is actually a fashion designer, not a nude-looking suit. They're based out of Nashville and they're really ornate custom-made suits with different details designed into them, like a phoenix on the back of the jacket made out of rhinestones. It'd be like my bling-suit, ya know? It's classy.
I got into music at a really early age so I was obsessed with guitars and records. I remember playing with these battery-operated 4x4 trucks, and I liked playing with those because they could drive over anything.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FLAVOR OF ICE CREAM?
WHAT'S THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE ANYONE'S GIVEN YOUR
MICHAEL SCOTT
Lenexa graduate student
Scotland. It looks beautiful and there are castles. I love Scotch and my favorite movie is Brateheart.
Gold Medal Ribbon from Baskin Robbins because it's vanilla, chocolate and caramel — the best of all worlds.
First, I'd take a date out to a really nice dinner, then treat my best friends to a good-sized bar tab. I always like to share and celebrate with my friends and family.
"An investment in knowledge pays the best interest." — Ben Franklin. Though he obviously didn't give me that advice personally.
A basketball. I had basketball courts near my house growing up and could play by myself, with friends or with random people. It always kept me entertained when I wasn't playing baseball. You never grow out of sports like you do with traditional toys.
kansas in heat // ANOTHER HORRIBLE 'F WORD'
relationship researcher Mike Anderson tackles the sticky world of relationship advice, one weekly Jayplay column at a time.
Mike Anderson, Dellwood, Minn., graduate student, is the host of Kansas in Heat, a talk show about sex and relationships that airs Thursday at 7 p.m. on KJKJ, 9.70 am at kjkh.org.
- THE OPINIONS OF THIS COLUMNIST DO NOT NECESSARY REFLECT THE VIEWS OF LAYKAY PLANKS IN HEAT IS NOT TO BE CONSIDERED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESIONAL HELP
I'd be willing to bet big money that everyone reading this column has at one time or another wanted one of their friends to be something more than a friend. Most of these people have probably never told that friend for fear of being rejected or ruining the friendship.
The decision to try to initiate a romantic relationship with a friend is a very stressful one, but it becomes tough not to say something. You may see that friend a couple times a week and further realize how much you have in common
and how compatible you could be. Your friends say you make a great couple, which makes the problem worse.
So what's a friend to do? Studies have developed ways of assessing a friend's mutual feelings, so use these tests before you go out on a limb and have the discussion.
1) Joke about being a couple and watch his or her reaction. If he or she smiles and continues on with the joke, the feeling may be mutual. 2) Take a break from each other and see the reaction. You'll be able to tell if the person missed you, or if he or she is hesitant to see you leave. 3) Gauge your friend's reaction when you flirt with someone else. This might even cause your friend to talk to you about your relationship. If you show interest in someone else and your friend/romantic interest sees it, you should be able to tell if he or she likes you.
If you try one of these three secret tests, the romantic interest your friend may have for you will more than likely come out in one form or another and you'll get the confidence you need to finally ask them out on a date.
