I read a list of things this random guy on the internet had written about himself. Just a few quick ntoes. Made me think.
1. My parents chose my first name because it was my dad's no because of the "Swamp Fox" family connection.
2. The first pet I had that was entirely my own was a parakeet named Tweety.
3. The second was a cat I call Bad Luck.
4. The hair on my head is a different color than the hair on my face, than the hair on my chest, than the hair in my crotch, than the hair on my legs. I am a walking Bear Flag.
5. My favorite car was a 1986 Chevy Z24 that I bought with money I made working part time at WalMart.
6. My favorite roommate was a hot chick named Adrianne. I tried to fuck her but couldn't.
7. My favorite color is actually grey but I tell everyone that it is red.
8. I wish I lived in a real city most days as I drive to and from work.
9. I am a better person when I have someone around me that truly needs my help.
10. I miss my college friend Andy so much some days it hurts to think that we live in the same town and never talk.
this is a great idea! i can't wait to put mine together.

1. My dad's side of the family is from Monroe, and they are the most laughable rednecks I know. I love them to death.
2. My grandfather is the greatest man I've ever known, and I don't know him that well. He is a preacher man, my mom tells me stories about how my grandmother would holler at him because he gave away their grocery money to poor folks in the church.
3. I been through two hurricanes, and I woulnd't mind going through another.
4. My girlfriend takes wonderful care of me, and I too often take it for granted.
5. I've been known to frequent a homersexual establishment.
6. I ain't gay.
7. I like how crisp, fall weather makes the follicles on my boltsac espand.
8. I hate cigarettes.
9. One of my favorite pasttimes is going to early service on Sundays, and within an hour of leaving service, cracking open my first beer preparing for Carolina Panthers football.
10. I figured out a long time ago that worrying about shit is for girls. My quality of life has improved immensly since that revelation.

[list=1]
I really never knew my father
I am lazy to a fault sometimes
I can be your best friend or your worse enemy depending on how I am treated by you
My favorite seasons are spring and fall. Unfortunately they are my busiest working periods
I love baseball. If you don't like it chances are your too dumb to understand the subtleties in the game
I love eating breakfast out.
Good coffee is a wonderful thing, I treasure it
My biggest accomplishment is my 13 year old daughter, who coincedently is growing old too fast
I am not nearly as patient as I used to be
I am probably the only man that isn't really interested in how a car works. If I turn the key and it starts, I am happy.
[/list=1]
1. My parents didn't have a boys name picked out. So they let my brother name me after his best friend's dog. I later relaxed when I found out it was my great-grand father's name also.
2. My middle name came from a cousin that was hit and killed by a drunk driver when he was 9.
3. When I was a kid and would get seperated from my parents in a department store, I would find the center aisle, rare back and scream "MOMMMMMMM!" until my meek, mild mannered mother would come tearing around the corner leaving a trail of dust behind her to shut me up!
4. My dream job is to work with dying patients in a Solice/Hospice House.
5. I have a major fear of snakes.
6. My parents had what I consider the 'perfect' marriage.
7. My last name translates out (or some variation) to "white hound" in German.

10. I can get blood out of almost anyone on the first stick.

1. I took a dump this morning that looked like Jack Elam, fucked up eyes and everything. I watched "The Uninvited" a couple nights ago. Coincidence? I think not.
2. When I'm on acid, I simonize my knob with a chamoise cloth and Turtle Wax while humming "People are Strange" by The Doors.
3. My favorite color is plaid, but I tell people it's herringbone.
4. My first pet was a quadreplegic boa constrictor.
5. When I was younger, my favorite sound was that which a women's head makes as it banged off my bed headboard. My second favorite was her closing the door behind her as she got the fuck out of my house.
6. My first car was a 1976 Pacer, banana yellow with black vinyl interior. I wish I still owned it.
7. I've never tried to light a fart.
8. I fantasize about Betty White and a bathtub filled with creamed corn.
9. The "man from Nantucket"? That'd be me.
10. I wanna be a cowboy (a cowboy). And you can be my cowgirl (my cowgirl).

Creamed Corn? I always had her pictured as a Gorbanza bean chick
Ten things about myself:
1. I really do want to conquer and rule the world - seriously.
2. I was named after some soap opera guy on the Young and The Restless that my mom got all excited about every time she saw him.
3. My family has always had a colorful history - they can be traced all the way back to the 1600s in Germany where we got our family name from printing Bible's and other religious material.
4. More colorful history - my family was torn during the Civil War - between fighting for the North and fighting for the South so they decided to play it safe and sell arms (and services) to both sides.
5. I am not gay.
6. I don't care if you are - specifically I don't want to know what you are fucking be it man, woman, goat, etc.
7. I enjoy any form of art - I also enjoy painting, drawing, etc.
8. I despise any type of rap music - unless it is a parody of rap music.
9. I consider myself to be a liberal conservative/conservative liberal and I am comfortable with my beliefs.
10. I believe in a God - not necessarily the 'southern' God - and am damn sick and tired of everyone trying to 'shove their religion' down my throat.

1. I procrastinate a lot.
2. I was named after my grandfather, I'm a "II." Reverse my middle and first name, that's my dad.
3. My family owned slaves. They were freed by our own will. Their ancestors live up the road from my parents on land that they earned.
4. I like motorcycles. Started riding when I was six.
5. I'm not a picky eater, enjoy most foods and eat a lot.
6. I can't gain weight and get accused of having a tape worm.
7. I met the girl that I want to marry just three months ago. She's a great cook.
8. My biggest idol is also my grandfather. He was a two star general, but I never knew that until I was old enough for other people to tell me. He was just grandpa and had a big garden.
9. I'm the only person in my family who has a great relationship with everyone else.
10. I'm a horrible golfer.

So does Y2. Deer in particular.
:drunk: :woman: :troll: :lurking: :nopity: :aorangeha :bouncing: :wasted: :stooges:
1. Growing up, I was always the smart one and my younger brother, born 15 months after me, was the good-looking one.
2. My middle name was my grandpa’s first name. He had a cool name. Reece Houston S. I thought if I ever had a son, I’d name him Houston.
3. All of my Dad’s family originated from Ireland – County Wicklow - and is from the hills of TN and they are pretty damn backwards and hick and I probably like them more because of it.
4. I think that you can do or build just about anything if you have decent common sense.
5. My dream is to one day own enough land where I can raise most all my own food and produce most everything I need to live without having to work for “the man”
6. While I may not (or may) see it in my lifetime – I believe that America is on a hurdling speed train to becoming third world – I consider this when contemplating my elderly years.
7. I spent eights years as an Army intelligence debriefer and interrogator questioning people that would make the President nervous and sometimes I am still too shy to call my business groups from work. Like LadyJane – I am sometimes seen as aloof or snobbish when really - I am just quiet. But, given time I can be quite open and like nothing more than laughing – ‘cause I am actually pretty goofy.
8. My father is my best friend. He will be 55 next year and I honestly do not know how or if I will be able to carry on with him not in this world – I can’t even think about it.
9. My parents divorced when I was 27 years old! It broke my Dad’s heart and my Mom and I have never really been that close since. It sucks but probably not as bad as it would have if I had been 8 years old.
10. I would rather sit at home and read a magazine on tractors than go on a date with someone. I feel it is never worth my effort.
11. I have lived in 5 different States and 5 different countries all through the Army; I speak three languages and could get by in a few more. I am wise to the ways of the world and different cultures, but would rather stick to the hills of Carolina and mete out my time there ‘til I’m gone.
12. I have many pets, including 3 dogs, 2 cats, some goats (one of which thinks she is a dog.) When I eventually have more land - I will have more animals.
1. My middle name is the same my mother had before she was married. She dropped her middle name when she got married and passed it to me. I really don’t like my middle name and my mother doesn’t remember ever telling me that story.
2. I am bi-sexual. I was attracted to women way before I became aware of men.
3. I have had over 100 pet cats through the course of my life. I currently have 5 of my own and have been adopted by 2 strays and 1 neighbor's cat.
4. My grandmother has been working on the family tree and claims to have traced her ancestry to Daniel Boone and Thomas Jefferson. I’m still waiting to see the chart.
5. I started going gray when I was 29 unbeknownst to me. A pal noticed it on my 30th birthday and I cried my eyes out.
6. I was placed into a rehab center for 48 hours and although I knew the reason why I was there, I couldn’t help but look at the other people there and think “I don’t belong here with these folks”.
7. My husband has more similar characteristics with my paternal grandfather than my father and I feel guilty about that.
8. I am a kind soul and try to live my life the best I can. Despite that, I feel I’m selfish because I’m focused on my marriage and the future.
9. I love the fall. Fashion is at its best; Driving along scenic highways are breath-taking; and the air seems so much easier to breathe.
10. I’m so in love with my husband that it hurts and I can’t wait to give him the daughter he wants so badly.
11. My first kiss was a peck on the lips of this black kid on the school bus when i was in the first grade. His older sister promised me a pack of Bubble Yum if I did. I never got the gum. I laugh at it now, but i feel like my first kiss was stolen from me since i was too young to understand how special a girl's first kiss should be.

Ya, ya I'll get to the list sooner or later...:rolleyes:
1. I was named after my dad but my middle name was almost Sly after Sly and the Family Stone. I am glad that isn't the case.
2. In my direct lineage I only know of one soldier aged man who survived the Civil War. Most fought for the CSA but owned no slaves. I have dying hatred for the concept of the Civil War being about slavery because of this. The guy that survived the war is the founder of Cherryville
3. I have an inferiority complex.
4. I have had a girlfriend for 4 years that I am totally in love with. I do, however, question if it is reciprocated equally...possibly due to #3 or possibly because she is what I consider a workaholic and I am rather slack until I get a project to work on.
5. I am straight edge, meaning I don't drink or smoke. I become more radicalized in that everyday. I have grown to the point where I despise the frat guy/sorority girl lifestyle. I try to change my feeling in this as to not be so prudish but it really makes me sick.
6. Aside from family the biggest thing I miss about NC is the Panthers games.
7. I put way too much stock in coincidences. I look for trends in everything. Baltimore was the first city I navigated my family around and now that I live here I can't help but find weird coincidences like God is telling me that I am doing right.
8. I identify with movie characters more than I do with real people but I feel stupid in saying that.
9. I graduated in 2003 from UNCG with a double major in Media Studies and History and a minor in business yet I don't feel that I know anymore about history than anyone else.
10. For some reason my phase of not wanting to leave home hit me at a much later age than it did most chicldren and I long for the past all the time. It makes me feel old and I worry I won't have time to accomplish all that I want.

The best thing about that area is that as "country" and simple as some areas are (and the Amish are mixed in with the non-Amish, so there are quite a few areas like that), one can go to the mall, restaurants, etc with just a short 10 minute drive. So it really is the best of both worlds.

1. I am the only Christian on my side of the family, and it is a source of tension.
2. I have never been to an NFL game.
3. I've lived an hour away from Yosemite National Park for 2/3 of my life, but have never been there, and I have no desire to go.
4. I have only kissed 7 girls in my life, and my first kiss wasn't until my senior year in high school.
5. I have never slept with anyone other than my wife, and I'm glad.
6. I have never really liked talking on the phone, but I've worked in communications for the past 6 years. On my own time, it takes an act of Congress to get me on the phone.
7. I have no fear of death, but an intense fear of pain.
8. On a family medical history form, the only box I don't check is 'autoimmune disease', and my wife has one.
9. I have arthritis in 5 joints, all on my left side, and I am hypoglycemic. I have low grade migraine headaches almost daily.
10. There are 3 full-blown alcoholics within 2 generations of my family.

Yes, the whole S&M bit does seem a little fascinating, no?
Although evisceration can be messy....:sagrin:
1. I'm a Texan even though I was really born in Louisiana.
2. I'm a nomad at heart.
3. I write horror stories, listen to heavy metal, and have studied Satanism, but I still can't be rude when a waitress messes up my order.
4. I keep cool and collected in a crisis situation, but small, minor inconveniences make me insane.
5. I despise pagers and cell phones. To this day I have never owned either.
6. City folks think I'm from the country and country folks think I'm from the city.
7. Someday I want to write a children's movie. Something like Shrek, Toy Story, Finding Nemo, etc.
8. I have a subcategory in my music collection I call "novelty." This includes musicians people used to love but now laugh at. New Kids on the Block, Milli Vanilli, Vanilla Ice, and MC Hammer are in this collection.
9. I'll know I've met Mrs. Right when I meet a woman who understands the fundamental humor of TV commercials.
10. I make fun of humorless people out of reflex.

The only reason I didn't get an annulment was because Texas has a 72-hour rule. And of course, being the spineless, wormy little church boy I was in those days, I didn't have the balls to put a stop to the wedding before it was too late. I sensed a grave disturbance in the Force beforehand, but was to wrapped up in "faith" that things would work out.
But the good side is that the experience cured me of my foolishness. I've said too much already.

1. My middle name is Jo after my grandfather (Joseph). I am one of 3 in our family whose middle name is after Grandpa.
2. I was in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade my sophomore year in high school (marching band).
3. I went through Chemotherapy for a year and a half and lived to tell about it.
4. I knew that I would marry Hasbeen on our first date (right after he told me he was never getting married).
5. My dad and uncle were tried for the murder of the local town banker and his daughter in the late 60's (in Kentucky). They were found "not guilty", but most believe they are not innocent, either. There is actually a book written about it called "Peach Orchard Road".
6. I have a steel hip and it has never set off a metal detector (and I'm a little disappointed!!).
7. I have visited the castle "Neuschwanstein" in Germany- it's the real castle that Sleeping Beauty's Castle in Disneyland was modeled after.
8. While spending a day at the beach, Hasbeen and I and my friend Kristy pulled up next to Matthew Perry at a stop light. He was driving on old powder blue corvette, and waved at us!
9. My worst recurring nightmare is that all of my teeth fall out. I've had that dream as long as I can remember.
10. I love a man with a nice, big, square jaw. (You thought I was going to say a nice, big something else, didn't ya?)

7. I think that if you're gonna stand in line for a chance at an $87 million dollar lottery ticket, you might as well for a $5 million dollar one.
8. I have a blind spot in my left eye from a briar being stuck in it when I was 7 years old.

1. I was almost named Melissa Sue by my father who has a lisp! Mom would have named me Cassandra Sue, but hence the father who has a lisp.
2. I was the first person on my father's side of the family to graduate from college.
3. I knew from a very young age that what ever I did when I grew up would include kids - first a pediatrician then a teacher.

5. I have lived in my apartment for 10 months and am not unpacked!

8. I drive a Ford even though my grandfather is probably rolling over in his grave because he worked most of his life for Chevy.
9. I am a very shy person, but once I get to know you, I'm a completely different person.
10a. I moved to Kansas in 1984, had the chance to move back to Illinois in 1986, decided against it and am glad I chose to stay here because I believe I would have ended up like most of my friends - unwed and pregnant!!!
10b. I grew up knowing the man I saw every 3rd weekend was my father. (My parents divorced before I was 3.) My dad and I didn't have any kind of relationship until late in my teenage years.

1. I am a born and raised charlottean- but i somehow dont seem like i'm from these neck of the woods as my parents are from india (my dad migrated here in 1976).
2. I am a vegetarian- have never had alcohol, smoked a cigarette, or any drugs.
3. I love spicy food- I have yet to lose a spice eating competition.
4. My best friends are my father and my elder brother- and I cant fathom my dad gone. He helps so many people and I only wish i could be a fraction of the man that he is.
5. I put an immense amount of pressure on myself- familial, societal, and personal pressure- will i succeed at my career? why isnt my family totally happy? why am i such a jackass? (on that note, i'm going gray)
6. I am a vedic hindu
7. I am a virgin and plan to be one until i get married- only recently have i reassessed my standing on this.
8. I started school a year and a half early.
9. I sometimes feel extremely guilty for the situation i'm in- i have a great family, never have had to worry about missing a meal and have always had a family business to fall back upon.
10. I have a tendency to set high goals but my ability to put aside my goals for other peoples gets the best of me to many times.

1) i am named after my father, but do not have the same name.
2) i am very close with my dad and brother. my dad is my hero. i strive to be just like him. my brother is my best friend and i like it that way.
3) my parents split up when i was 17. 11 years later now and neither has remarried. i have only grown closer with my dad and further away from my mom since they split up.
4) i was married at 21, and divorced at 24. would not change it tho. it taught me alot, and gave me a beautiful daughter who i love very much, and who means the world to me.
5) my favorite color is red. second favorite color is also red.
6) i am too trusting. almost to a fault sometimes. this doesn't make much sense combined with #7 below.
7) i think 2nd chances are way over-rated. people shouldn't fuck up the first time.
8) i love the feeling of waking up in the morning knowing someone loves me. knowing there is that special someone who thinks the world revolves around me makes me happy.
9) fall is my favorite time of year. brisk nights, mildly warm days, and its has the coolest clothes.
10) when i see all of my friends who are married and happy, i get jealous. especially now that they are all having babies and starting families. i feel guilty about that.
1. I was destined to have a bird name. If I had been a boy my name was going to be Jay.
2. I relate better to animals than I do to people, and can't think of any career that would make me happier than working with them (well, except for being a guy and playing pro baseball).
3. I'm a daddy's girl. My father is the most generous, selfless person I've ever met, and doesn't get nearly the credit or thanks he deserves for holding our family together and taking care of us.
4. I am in my 5th year of college, and am on my 4th major. I still don't know what I'm going to do when I graduate.
5. I am too shy and self conscious to start a conversation with a person I don't know well.
6. I have always been known as the "good child". I am the only child in my family who has not been to jail, and I think my parents would probably kill me if that were to change.
7. Mental illness runs in my family, and I am scared to death that I have inherited it and just haven't realized it yet, or that my children will inherit it.
8. I am passionate about 3 things: love, animals, and baseball. This brings about a few rules. If you don't like my dog then I'm probably not going to like you, and if you don't like baseball then you can only hang out with me between november and the middle of february.
9. For 22 years I believed that everyone had only one person that they were meant to be with. For the past 5 years I believed I knew who that person was. I was wrong, and I'm glad.
10. The best feeling in the world is being able to be completely comfortable being yourself and knowing that you'll be accepted. That's what real love is about...no hiding, no holding back...just being real.

Do that, but take it with a grain of salt. What it means for one person might be different for the next; the language of dreams is symbols, and we all have our own meanings for different things.
I read that our dream means fears about sexual inadequacy. Years ago that my have applied to me, but not anymore. Come to think of it, I haven't had that dream in a long-ass time!

If you dream of having false teeth this indicates that you will have unexpected help on a problem. To dream of rotten teeth shows that you have been telling someone a lie or using your smooth words for getting your own way no matter what. If your teeth are rotten, crooked, and/or falling out this means that your lies are hurting someone very badly and that you will soon be found out. If you dream you have swallowed a tooth you will soon have too 'eat your words'. It becomes much easier to interpret this kind of dream if you think of teeth as representing words. When the dreamer is not the one with the bad teeth you will naturally have to watch out for someone lying to you.
I've been having dreams of UFO's since I was young and the last two have been unnerving. The most recent i had right before i got married. A pal's friend said that UFO's usually represent a fear of the unknown or heading into unfamiliar territory (marriage).

2. I am the oldest 24 year old on the planet.
3. I love my family and friends but I am perfectly comfortable being alone for long periods of time.
4. To everyone who knows me I have very high self-esteem but the truth is I have a very deep fear of failure and being inadequate.
5. I have never met anyone in my entire life that I truly hate and I don't understand anyone who hates people based on race, sexual preference, or gender.
6. My best friends are Windylu and Mailman. I often feel like I take more from our friendship than I give.
7. I have never slept with a woman I was in love with and now that I read that it really bothers me.
8. I am a hopeless romantic.

1. My great great grandmother shot and killed a yankee soldier because he was trying to steal her horse. This grandmother was also a first cousin to "Laura Foster". ( the one Tom Dooley had to hang down his head about)
2. My great grandmother on the other side was named America and she was full blooded Cherokee indian. They say she had 'the shine'.
3. I have worked with and socialized with every type person known to man ( including politicians and the most astute scholars) and have always been comfortable in any setting- However, I am most comfortable with long haired freaky people, but won't allow myself the luxury of staying around them too long.
4. I have an absolute, unfounded fear of flying.
5. I become completely intolerable of humans at times, and crave solitude.
6. I have started 3 different careers including law, but have been in medicine for 13ish+ years.
7. I have been looking for a certain scent since I was 16 years old. I found it last year on a 'restoration hardware' candle, the name was rubbed off the bottom and they have quit selling candles since then- so I lost it again.
8. Music can change my outlook as quickly as a life altering event.
9. My favorite word at the moment is googleplex.
10. I am paid back immediately and tri-fold for my sins. I believe in karma and I believe in 'the shine', and I believe they are all tied in with God.

It's my understanding that baseball players are known as "the boys of summer", and that baseball is mainly a summertime game. Summer ends September 21st (or around there).
IMO...
Fall = football.
Winter = hockey.
Spring/Summer = baseball.
I think basketball is too long. Hell they play all the way into June.

1. My middle name is my grandfather's name--the man who taught me the meaning of "unconditional love."
2. The older I get, the more I love life and like myself.
3. I am a tree-hugging dirt-worshipper with a healthy respect--& an equally healthy skepticism--for both science & spirituality.
4. I think human beings would be a lot happier if they'd get over their arrogance & learn from so-called "lesser" species.
5. Redheads have the MOST fun.
6. When I joined the Navy at age 18, I had to list all my previous addresses; and when averaged out over my lifetime then, I had moved about every 9 months for my whole life.
7. A man can turn me on with eloquence faster and more completely than any other way.
8. A man can turn me off with arrogance and stupidity in a split second.
9. To those who say, "Curiosity killed the cat," I reply, "Satisfaction brought her back." Discovery is a huge thrill.
10. If I'm ever in a position to be financially extravagant, Imma git me a badass Harley & cruise!
1) I wasn't name after anybody that I know or as far as I know anybody that either of my parents knew.
2) I was a mistake. My parents fully intended to quit having children after my brother was born.
3) I was the only red headed child in my school from the time that I was in kindergarten until the 4th grade when I changed schools. This was a source of stress for the other kids in my school. :D
4) I met my soul mate online in 1995, married him in 1997 and am still completely crazy about him. Also still married to him.
5) Before graduating from college in 2000 I was a hairstylist for 14 years and I was damn good at it.
6) I am a complete sucker for animals and have been known to get violent a few times when I saw someone hurting an animal. I am the same way about children.
7) I relate better to men than I do women and throughout my life most of my best friends have been men.
8) I have often been accused of flirting when I was just being friendly so I often go out of my way to avoid giving people that idea. Especially if a man has his SO with him. Sometimes because of this people think that I'm being snooty.
9) I think that many people that I meet are intimidated by me and have had other people tell me the same thing.
10) I love to hear what other people think about things and why they think that way. ESPECIALLY if it varies widely from what I think.

1) I am the fourth. My son is the fifth, but has no number on his birth certificate.
2) For the first several years of her life, my mother lived in the Georgia countryside and had no indoor plumbing.
3) I am a decsendant of Davey Crockett.
4) My Father's father worked the night shift at a tire plant. He lost his leg in a freak accident, and spent the next 20 years of his life living on the couch, smoking and drinking his life away.
5) My mother's father was a contractor, and died of heart disease at 65.
6) I have 1 sister, no brothers.
7) I dropped out of high school, got a GED, entered a community college and transferred into a 4 year college (University of Colorado) as a sophomore when the rest of my high school class entered their Freshman year. Fuck the system.
8) As an adult (since about age 20), I've only had one job as an employee for 60 days. I have started 3 corporations and purchased a 4th.
9) While in college I attended 125 Grateful Dead shows, and was completely clean and sober at every one of them.
10) When I was 16, after having been expelled from most schools in Charlotte, arrested, and had just returned from a drunken joyride in a stolen car to Myrtle Beach and back, I asked my parents to send me into rehab. They releuctantly did so.

The most fascinating people post here! I love TBR!
1) My name is really Savio which is Italian/Spanish and means "wise", well not really, my Vietnamese name is Vinh.
2) My college diploma is still in the envelope it was sent to me.
3) I have a close and strong relationship my mother. I have never had a close relationship with my brother or my dad.
4) The best of my college years was spent at NCSU where I have made life long friends whom I keep in touch with from week to week.
5) I have 6 aunts and 4 uncles on my dad's side of the family including 15 cousins.
6) Someone once told be I would make a good Politician or Teacher (I believe I will become one of those in this lifetime).
7) My parents almost went to France if they did not have a sponser here to the US. My uncle on my mom's side helped with that since he was in the South Vietnamese National Army.
8) I have a fear of roller coasters.
9) I hope to head back to Vietnam within the next couple years before it becomes a tourist country and the history forgotten. Travel is a passion of mine.
10) I once set a big wooded area on fire (2nd grade) and the fire got out of control, that happens when you start a fire with plenty of pine needles around. So the first thing I did was call my mom...she put the whole thing out, about a .25 of an acre worth of fire. I got whooped that night....

The ironic thing is, that lady was murdered mob hit style a few yerars later. No shit. I swear I had nothing to do with it. HP knows who I'm talking about... Mrs. Guyer.
That's fucked.

This is apparently a popular activity among kids. My sister did this too, when she was 6. She & her best friend said they were trying to toast bread in the woods behind our house. The fire department had to come put it out.
1 I am the first born and have one younger brother (three years). My fathers family tree goes back to a Duke in England and horse thieves in Texas. I have sixteen Confederate Veterans in my family but was born in Indiana. My ancestry is German, English and Irish.
2 I have never gotten along with my mother.
3 It would be a terrible world if there was no coffee or newspaper in the morning.
4 I am a gregarious loner. I love solitude and would rather be home in the mountains than anywhere.
5 I can do about anything and have extra common sense if looking at other humans is any Gage. Sometimes I don't see how some people made it to be as old as they are.
6 When I die I will miss women and music the most, but not necessarily in that order.
7 If you can get me started working I am hard to stop.
8 I love dogs.
9 I thought pot would be legal by 1980.
10 I have traveled the country back and forth many times, three times hitch hiking. I am glad I did it while I was young. Do as much as you can while you are young. It is not guaranteed that you will get old.
11 Cherish your best friends, I have out lived four of mine so far. I miss them more than I can think about.
i am exactly 11 years, 9 months, and 28 days younger than my brother that is closest in age to me.
i drove my parents cadillac down the street, over a tree, down an embankment, and across a ditch when i was 2.
i'm the best snowball thrower on the block.
on one play in termite football, i was the first guy of the double reverse, but i kept the ball because the kid i was to hand it to had already scored that day and i needed my points too. ran a touchdown for 70 yards.
i used to slip marathon bars down the side of my tube socks from the mr. zips.
i found a live queen conch in the turks and caicos and took it to the chef at the third turtle inn and we had conch soup for dinner that night. i still have the conch and it is still beautiful 25 years later.
i started driving for real when i was 14.
i lived in the same house from the time i was born until i left for college.
i skipped a lot of classes in college.
i never skip work.
i handed a glass of water to an old man that had just finished dancing. he collapsed and died.
i saw a man punch a nun.
i am the only person with my last name in the charlotte phone book.
when i was alter server, i would sleep during much of the mass cos i would be hungover.
i like pbr.
the happiest i've been all week was last night when my boy went with the pitch and drove a sweet single to right field.

I'm named after Bob Dylan.
I'm very close with my parents, not so much with other relatives.
In Al Bundy-like fashion, I once hit three home runs in a high school baseball game.
I have one brother (five years younger) who stayed in Southern California when the rest of the family moved to NC. He's lived in the same house his entire life. I've lived in 5.
I've said only a few things in my lifetime I wish I could take back. In fact, I can only think of two words: "I do."
I've seen several significant sporting events in person: Eric Dickerson breaking OJ Simpson's single season rushing total, Kirk Gibson hitting a home run in game one of the 1988 World Series, Magic Johnson breaking the all time assist record, Reggie White's first home game for the Packers (in Milwaukee) and George Brett getting his 3,000th hit.
My first concert was Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks at Irvine Meadows in 1982.
I worked at Chuck E. Cheese when I was 16, but I was never the mouse.
I like all of the Law & Order programs.
I have one child - a beautiful almost 3 year old daughter. She made a poopie in the toilet last night at my house.

3. My favorite color is plaid, but I tell people it's herringbone.
4. My first pet was a quadreplegic boa constrictor.
5. When I was younger, my favorite sound was that which a women's head makes as it banged off my bed headboard. My second favorite was her closing the door behind her as she got the fuck out of my house.
6. My first car was a 1976 Pacer, banana yellow with black vinyl interior. I wish I still owned it.
7. I've never tried to light a fart.
8. I fantasize about Betty White and a bathtub filled with creamed corn.
9. The "man from Nantucket"? That'd be me.
10. I wanna be a cowboy (a cowboy). And you can be my cowgirl (my cowgirl).
Grid that is one of the funniest post I have ever read, on any board. I can't stop laughing and tears are currently forming in my eyes. You are one warped human. That's a good thing.

1) I only take a dump when I'm alone or with someone.
2) If I fart in the bathtub does it make a sound if it doesn't stink?
3) I'm not black but I wasn't named after Barry Manillow.
4) My favorite color is green, with a dead president indented on it.
5) The first time I got laid, I was 16, in my Honda Civic Hatchback, she was 30 lbs. overweight, it lasted 20 seconds, and it was one of the greatest days of my life.
6) The worst blowjob I ever had was pretty damn good.
7) I think the music of the 80's sucks but I still listen to it on 94.1 and enjoy it.
8) I treat my dogs better than I treat myself, preach animal rights, but have no problem eating a chicken sandwich.
9) I fantasize about wearing a Star Wars mask, while screwing Hillary Clinton and yelling "may the force be with you."
10) My favorite saying is, " Jesus loves you, but the rest of us think you are an asshole."

okay here goes.
1. i sometimes care too much about what other people think about me. to mask my insecurities i try to come across tough or bitchy but that is not who i am inside. few people close to me know the real me.
2. i have only ever been in love with one person even though there have been many times i don't like him.
3. i have very few regrets in life.
4. school (all of them) were merely social gatherings places for me, i did not apply myself to excel i was content with just having fun on the ride. i believe i have come to the point in my life that i am ready for another ride.
5. i love being alive - "live long, laugh often, love much" i live by those few words, they have been good to me. i believe in God and i am proud of that.
6. i judge people far too often. i know this not my place to do and i am not proud of it.
7. i have looked in a persons eyes and seen evil, he is the only person i have ever met that gave me that feeling. i had a woman touch me once and tell me things about myself she NEVER could have known. i was pregnant (not yet showing) with curtis at the time. she told me when he would be born and that he was a boy. she spoke of my deceased grandfather and how he would always be with my child. this woman scared me yet comforted me at the same time. she also said a few other things i'm not going into. she told me my orha(sp) was white/yellow and my spirit was beautiful. i have always thought she was an angel, her eyes were dark brown and gave (this sounds silly) my soul comfort. * this is getting long.* years ago when i worked at the bank i met her again. she walked up to my window and handed me her transaction. i barely looked at her because it was so busy at the time but when i reached to take her deposit i touched her hand. i felt almost a shock of electricity that filtered through every part of my body. i immediately looked up and it was her. she just smiled, i did her transaction. we chatted in an odd sort of way, i wanted to ask her so many things. sheasked me how "curtis" was and told me "cheer" told her he was a beautiful boy. cheer was my popop's nickname...she told me he was "meant to walk". there is a story here that is longer than i want to type but this had meaning to me. anyway the woman next to me listened to the whole thing. after the line of customers was gone andrea (the teller next to me) asked who she was. i said "mary something" i went back to look at her transaction slip. i hoped for information to conact her outside of work. it was gone. i looked into my computer for the information i typed in, it too was gone. i have a 2 minute gap with no transactions on a friday at lunch time, not possible. to this day everyone in the bank with me that day is not sure what to think. they all saw i did the work and held the paper trail. another weird one was we were so miffed by this we looked at the video tapes. the camera was blurry white for 9.something minutes. i have no idea why she came to me but i believe i will see her again one day.
8. i talk too much.
9. my children are the best kids in the world, imo of course.
10. i wanted to say more but i tend to go off on a rant and forget what i wanted to say.
*bonus- there is a reason i fell into tbr but to date i do not know it.
