14. I've played golf with an Olympic medallist. (Yes, I lost. Duh.... No, his medal wasn't in golf...)


15. I've probably never fully disliked a person I've met in my adult life. A couple of dilinquent fathers is as close as I come, though.


16. I have an uncle who died under very mysterious circumstances. (I'm kinda hoping it'll come up on Law and Order one of these days....)


17. I once deduced that a woman was in labour before she did.


18. I believe that Terry Fox is the single greatest hero/role model of our era, and that everyone should know who he is.

13. I LOVE rollercoasters. The Top Thrill Dragster ( http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/inside_park/rides/thrill/ttd/index.cfm ) scares plenty of people senseless just looking at it, but I couldn't stop bouncing in anticipation of going 420 feet straight up (42 stories high) at about 120 MPH (0-120 in 4 seconds) and it's amazing!! I couldn't stop grinning or breathe normally for several minutes after riding that thing!

"4) I once crapped my pants on the drive back from New Orlean's after mardi gras."


-That's discusting but man did it make me laugh.

-fun thread. i have a few more too:


11. i've played ice hockey against Olympians and played at Maple Leaf Gardens.


12. i hate people i don't know seeing me eat. but if i'm with others i don't care.


13. i almost died from a botched spinal tap in 1993.


14. i'm an introverted misanthrope but am widely considered charming and outgoing.


15. i love rain.


16. i kiss my cat.


17. i use the flap on my boxers.


18. i cry often for all sorts of reasons. i used to be wound really tight and would rather be this way.


19. i've changed my last name twice.


20. i'm a hunt-and-peck typist who uses 7 digits.

Erm..let's see.


11. High School and College were a cake walk for me.

12. I hope to get on a special effects team at some point in my career.

13. I've gained over 40 lbs in the last year. (And no I'm not fat. =D)

14. I love the color silver, both of my vehicles are silver, and so are my necklaces/rings..no gold for me!

15. I've broken more bones then I can remember.

16. The last bully to ever pick on me in HS ended up on the ground with a broken nose.

17. I could never eat enough pizza! <3

18. I find myself attracted to brunettes, more so then blondes

19. I would quit my well paying job right now, to live on the beach and live pay check to pay check in a life of simplicity.. (and NO not Florida!)

20. I have more female friends, then buddies, because I moved away from my buds and they're busy with their families now.


21. (Just for fun) On a bet from one of my co-workers at my old job, I punched through a landscaping patio block and broke my hand, but he paid the tab that night.

I'm bored, so what the hell...


11. I recently found out I was married. Apparantly I've been married for nearly four years without knowing. Going through divorce proceedings again.


12. The above listed is odd because when I was 19 some crazy woman grabbed my palm and started reading it to me, telling me that I would be married twice, but to the same man. Apparantly she was off a notch, because it should've shown getting divorced twice.


13. I get huge irrational crushes on people purely based on their text, but am rational enough to usually be aware of this and not think it's something that it's not.


14. It's been years since I've had a female friend that was anything more than an acquaintance, and sometimes seeing groups of women out laughing and bonding makes me sick with jealousy. I've craved having a close platonic female friendship for years. However, I don't have the patience for the ridiculous crap that generally comes as part of the package.


15. I'm drawn to people who intimidate me, and inevitably am stricken with disappointment when finding out they're normal humans.

I get a kick out of Bebop's "secret" #11 in his list and the fact that he worked to hide it there.

Oooh, more!


I spent an entire summer when I was younger trying to write with my foot. As a result, I have incredible dextarity in my right foot, and can bearly bend my toes on the left. My fiance calls me "monkey-toes."


I drink coffee before bed to help me unwind.


My Initials are BMW


I don't believe people should have more kids than they can afford to put through college. I resent my parents a little for making my struggle so much to pay my own way through school while my father (mother died) gave my younger sister the house we grew up in, makes sure she and her (now husband) have reliable cars, and helps her support her two kids, who are each by different men, while she and her second baby's father work part time. She refuses to get her GED because "it's too hard." I resent the fact that I chose a different life and I'm being punished for it by lack of support. I resent the fact that she recently got married and my father paid for it, yet my fiance and I have been together for 10 years and have been engaged for 4 and receive no offers of help with getting married.


I know what it's like to have your entire family forget your birthday, and I've gotten used to it, but last year my entire family forgot me at Christmas and just thinking about it hurts.


ugh, screw this. I like reading everyone's posts better.

ok... one more.


11. Once on a spring break trip I played 3v3 football on the Univ of Fla football field. At 12 AM. Drunk. Pants and skins...


Luckily my team was pants.


Luckier our team jumped the fence back ONTO the street about 15 seconds before the cops showed up.


The skins team was still on the field.
