1. Who is/are your favorite skater(s)? Hae Ye Choi, first and foremost. Also love Potemerenko, Andropov, Ordway/Dwight, Polanski, Nikita Davies, Anastasia Yurchikova, Ugarov, Rabatin & Jidkov, Lovell, and Kozlov (man I miss him, wish he'd come back!)

2. Who is/are your least favorite skater(s)? I really don't like Williams & Lovell that much. As a single, Tim's fine, but as a pair... it's just not him.

3. What's your favorite skating move? Favorite of all, Hae Ye's spirals, Potemerenko's spin, also love the one-foot Axel he does in exhibitions; also love Andropov's edges and footwork. But jumps-wise, I love this junior skater, should be having his first senior year this year, Dolohov. Yes, son of you-know-who.

4. Have you cried at something skating-related? A performance, etc? Hae Ye's 05-06 Nationals and Olympics and Worlds programs, all of them, especially her exhibition, Butterfly. I've cried during many of her performances from the Korean Nationals. I also found myself tearing up during Potemerenko's Chopin SP at the 04 Olympics, and his tribute show to his sister way back in 02.

5. Who's your favorite underdog skater? I'd say Potemerenko LOL he used to be the favorite two years ago but now... well then again he retired. I really am rooting for Polanski this year, I can't wait to find out what his music will be!

6. What was your favorite program of the 2006-07 season? Andropov's Brokeback Mountain program, love the fact that it wasn't the same one exactly. Potemerenko's Amazed tour program, and Polanski's Man In The Iron Mask, such awesome footwork!

7. Which skater's personality do you like the most? Hae Ye, definitely!

8. Which skater's personality do you dislike the most? Hmm... as much as I enjoy his skating, I am not a fan of Andropov as a person.

9. Who has the best costumes? Hae Ye, Anastasia, Polanski, O&D, Potemerenko

10. Who has the worst costumes? Andropov, R&J, W&L

1. Who is/are your favorite skater(s)? I like most people...
2. Who is/are your least favorite skater(s)? Nikita Davies, he seems like SUCH a creep.
3. What's your favorite skating move? Anastasia's layback spin. Perfect.
4. Have you cried at something skating-related? A performance, etc? Not really. I felt depressed for Anastasia after blowing it at Torino.
5. Who's your favorite underdog skater? Polanski I guess.
6. What was your favorite program of the 2006-07 season? O/D's short program, Anastasia's long program.
7. Which skater's personality do you like the most? Andropov seems like a nice kid.
8. Which skater's personality do you dislike the most? In recent interviews Alice Ordway has come off as a rich, stuck up snot. Anastasia Yurchikova sometimes acts like that too. Potemerenko rubs me the wrong way sometimes.
9. Who has the best costumes? Hae Ye, Anastasia, O/D always look nice and put-together.
10. Who has the worst costumes? The Russians, sans Anastasia Yurchikova. All the illusion fabric, the flowiness...ugh.
