5 Things:


* I like to overuse exclamation points!!!

* I don't hear well and if I am in a crowded room trying to have a conversation, I usually have to lip-read to understand the person even if they are standing within 3-feet of me. The lip-reading has come in handy over the years

* I am oddly drawn to the Cathouse series on HBO.

* Every day on my way home a Weimereiner that lives about a mile from our house waits for the truck to pass his house because we have made friends and I keep a bag of dog cookies in the truck just for him.

* Between The Planet, work, and personal, I average about 2 hours a day just reading emails.

[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..

[Andrew, Jr.]

[Rook]

~bored @ Dialysis...so~

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...

3- My first time ever eating "sushi"..was in Washington state, I was 4, and I swallowed a pair of Live goldfish...

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

5- I prefer rainy days..but, sunny days are great sometimes, if I have sunglasses.

[Lynn]

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.

[Boots13]

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.

*grin*

I can already curse like a sailor. I learned very young.

I agree. Pepper is a good addition to a tomato and Miracle Whip (Does NOT Suck, June!) sandwich.

I haven't seen Dexter yet. I have seen the trailers and ads and I think I'll like it but I haven't actually watched an episode yet.

Mayo is the sauce of the Devil and most only be injested when the Miracle Whip is so rotten it's separated or it's completely out.

I cannot roll my tongue either and it frustrates me to no end. I've lived in very culturally diverse areas and I'd like to be able to pronounce the names of folks properly.

Manners aren't in style anymore and that is truly sad.

[JakeTulane]

My favorite color is Cobalt Blue.. not light blue.. not dark blue.. Cobalt Blue.

Very few people get Me. That used to bother Me. Now I think it is pretty cool. Because those that do, rock.

I never thought I wanted children, until I held My niece when she was first born.. 10 years ago.

I have a sarcastic and dry sense of humor.

I listen to all types of music from Italian opera to Beyonce.

[Rook]

1~ I Can roll my R's {I discovered in the U.S. when I do this, the girlies Melt}....and my tongue in a "U" shape{it's proven to be genetic, if u have the gene, u can twist the tongue, otherwise, no dice}....

2~ In puerto rico, it was a Constant battle proving I knew English...in the U.S., it's spanish....How did I prove it?...in Puerto Rico I frequently won by saying Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious AND the english alphabet [only once did someone ever wise up..we wound up dating though -shrug-]...in the u.s.? When I stayed in a small town in Ohio, I usually impressed 'em with "La Bomba" by Ricky Martin...

3~ I used to Love agressive inline skating, nowadays I have to brush up, and maybe visit the park in athens...

4~ I collected beanie babies for years, recently I was furious and threw them all away...So yes, Short Fuse...

5~ When I have nowhere to go, nothing to do, and I'm wound up tighter than a jack-in-the-box, I will take Long Long hot showers to help me think {occasionally i'll sing/dance silly..what?..Beuller did it!!! I can be the walrus too !!!}

[Lady Pamela]

*I play a game I call Parlor tricks...Usuaully at Halloween or on camping trips. I give the person in front of me instructions to look around them..become whatever they choose within the area...see it in there mind...I get three guesses to connect and tell them what it is...It is a fun game for both parties.

*Some Native Amercian cultures and well as a few others..Believe that a person such as myself carries two souls...Due to my twin I absorbed. "I have no real opinion on this either way."

*One of my most favorite thing for me to do is to be by a creek or large bed of water and simply be alone to write or think or simply put my feet in and soak up the beauty.

*I love to BBQ and cook over an open fire the old fashioned way.

*Some of my favorite people who ever lived are Hellen Keller,Lady Dianna, Mother Teresa and Gandi...Just to name a few.

[Write14u]

1) I can not roll my tongue. (It is genetic. My mom can't do it either.). I can, however, roll my r's when throwing out the little Spanish I have retained.
2) I love to skip rocks. I've used this a great emotion reliever. You pick out good throwing rocks, put all your angst, emotion, etc. into that rock and then sling it to hell and gone.
3) People are often impressed by the events I cover with my job and the people I meet. That would be the glamorous side. However, they rarely seen the non-glamorous side of it, which is waiting hours on calls and stomping down muddy sidelines in the rain covering high school sports.
4) I'm not a big fan of mayo. However, tomato sandwiches are the exception. Mmmmm. And I can go with white or wheat.
5) I don't usually eat white bread, but the biggest exception I make for it is at Dreamland Barbeque in Tuscaloosa, Ala. It is a MUST HAVE for dipping into the rib sauce. I once sat down with two other fellow reporters and between us, we wiped out four racks of ribs and two loaves of white bread dipped in the sauce. Heaven. And that's not even counting the ribs, which are divine.
