OK, da Troll will give this a try--

Appearance: Varies from butt-ugly to charmingly cute, depending upon your 
cultural conext for Trolls.  The Dragon Lady says I'm FAT, I claim fluffy!

Favorite Drink:  Varies from Antifreeze to Dihydrous Oxide, straight.  Is
Currently corrosively strong Lipton tea, no sugar, no cream, no mercy, in
a very large container with an LCD thermometer on the side.  Anything under
140deg F and above 120deg F is "drinkable"

Place in Bar:  Under a convenient table that looks sorta like a stone 
bridge over a quiet stream.

Birthdate:  Classified as to year, will admit to being a Libra on the
27th of a month.

Origin:  New Jersey, Florida, California, Alabama.  Currently at work
near Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville Alabama, USA, Earth, Milky
Way Galaxy.

Imitable:  Not likely, mold blew up during process of making me.

Connections:  Dragon Lady, very significant other, 4ft 11inches of very
Cantonese buzzsaw that claims to be 5ft 2inches tall.

Dave the Wave, Eldest son, currently resides at Caltech in Pasadena, CA.
Eagle Scout, and general go-dooder

throne.  Biology and science experimenter.

conditions, useless otherwise, loved pet.

Da B1rd, noisyest parakeet in the world, can out-yell many household appliances
that generate ear-splitting noise.

Sense of Humour:  Warped, degenerate, and very subtle.  Loves Spike Jones
and Monty Python as examples of subtle wit.

Opinion of Surveys like these:  Answers with outrageous lies and half-truths,
facts, and fancy, all intermixed in a undefineable manner.  Friends in the bar
will remember that the Troll will not allow facts to screw up a good story.
