5 Things No One Would Know About You From BFP Alone

[Write14u]

As a newspaper editor, exclamation points are my mortal enemy. *grin* Journalism teachers will tell you that you only get one in your entire career, so use it wisely.

I can't read lips at all. That's a sucky thing, because yes, it does come in handy.

Tomato and mayo sandwiches rock. BUT, they MUST include pepper. Lots of it. And some salt, but not that much.

Dexter intrigues me.

If you don't know how to curse well, they will teach you at any newspaper. I had one co-worker who NEVER cursed -- until something went wrong on deadline and then she could drop the F-bomb like no other.

- I'm a Huge All-Blacks Rugby Fan, been one since the early 2000's after I saw a Game and said "Now THAT's better than american Football"...

- I'm also a big "Soccer" fan {We call it FutBol}

- I have yet to Miss either World Cup, Olympics, X-Games or the Academy Awards [ I panicked during the Writers Strike, and dozed off when Letterman hosted *the Year Indie films had it good* lol]

- I was gonna put Im a die-hard Yankees fan, but anyone who talks to me knows this...So...When I was 'introduced' to Kink/Leather/High Protocol, I 'started out' as a sub., eventually I learned valuable things, but then...I was hella "SAM" as well

- I'm both a cat person and Dog person....after Ferrets of course..

1- I know by heart the songs to "Evita", "Fiddler on the Roof", "CATS", "Grease"...[droops head]

2- I can discuss religion till the Cows come home if the other person is open-minded...

4- I drove the MP's insane on the Bases we lived in...2 MP's frequently called me "spawn of hell"

1. I was in Rockville, MD at an NIH conference, on the day that the "Beltway Sniper" shot his first person. The hotel was on lockdown for a few hours. When we left the hotel to go out to dinner that evening, I remember running from tree to telephone pole--I felt so vulnerable.

2. I could eat Indian food every day of my life.

3. I don't really like sushi very much, although I do eat it. My favoirtes are salmon and tuna.

4. Dexter creeps me out, but it also fascinates me.

5. I am really afraid of heights. Even driving on a road with a steep drop-off kind of scares me.

1) The first time I wore my pager, I was driving a country road and going through some twisty-turneys...my pager went off and I thought my guts were going to explode...I nearly put the car in the ditch.

2) My mom drove a Dodge Polaris custom...similar to the old California Highway Patrol cars...she was as wild as a march hare. One day my sister and I were sitting in the back seat (4 and 6 y.o. old ) and mom said 'HOLD ON GIRLS, WE'RE CLEARING OUT THE CARBORATOR' and she STOMPED it. I remember reaching for my little sisters hand, laughing at not being able to lean forward in the seat from the acceleration...and to this day when I stomp it I think of that!

3) I got grounded for life in H.S. when I dropped the transmission out of Dad's Mustang. I was speed shifting, racing my best friend Margo in her 442. She won

4) My friend Kerry had a 62 Chev Impala. We rolled down all the windows and I took The Walk...she was only doing 40 or so, but I managed get out of the passenger seat, walk around the outside of the car and plopped my young ignorant ass back in the passenger seat without killing myself.

5) I had a bunch of water balloons and my friends and I were off to find some action...We were driving about 40 and recognized my teacher's car coming toward us...at a good 40...obviously my physics lessons hadnt stuck....The combined force of an 80 mph impact shattered her headlight and destroyed her grill...I got grounded for life on that one too.
