If your house was on fire, and you could grab three things before it burned down, which three things would you save? I would save my snowboards, my autographs and my cats.	If you were to play a team sport professionally, what be would it be and why? I would be a on a pro Snowboarding team. I love the feeling of a crisp cold day, slashing through the snow on my Flow Micron and catching some big air. I want to do this the rest of my life!
