1. Non-Aligheri, in tribute to your famous namesake and to your past dubbing of orange juice as "OJ Non-Simpson"
2. But of course
3. Nine years and three months
4. Weiss's philosophy class. I was wearing that damned beret, and you were hamming it up.
5. Damn that guy is funny. And loud.
6. Yes, but I think much more of you besides.
7. You think too little of yourself, and as a consequence often miss opportunities that you don't even know you have.
8. You should.
9. The company of others
10. The company of yourself and your own thoughts
11. Good radio, Hüsker Dü, toast, Jack Black
12. A small dose of my own overbearing self-confidence
13. I've seen the crack of your ass, so I think I know you about as well as I know anyone I haven't slept with, and better than several people I have.
14. The last time you were in New York City. I don't remember precisely how long ago that was. Too long.
15. Yes. No, I'm not telling you what it was.
16. No.
17. Present
18. Staying the same.
19. No. I've tried, and usually it ends up with you going on some barely related tangent. Which I appreciate when I need cheering up, but when I want to probe deeply into a psychological question can get frustrating. It's OK, because that's what I have a wife and a therapist for.
20. No.
21. Only in certain circumstances, and only because I know you well enough to have faith in you.

3. How long have you known me? How many times have I heard about you when I was hanging in Geillan's dorm? That's how long I've known you.
4. When and how did we first meet? Hmmm...Amanda would go on profusely about this "infamous Dante". I asked around, and everyone would affirm, "Yeah...he's infamous." So when you came back to do a special broadcast on the 'H, you already had an estabilished fangrrl.
5. What was your first impression? Cool...it's Dante.
6. Do you still think that way about me now? Yeah...it's Dante.
