Something you don't know about me?  Like maybe that the FBI just emailed me and asked me help them catch those Nigerians?  Yeah, it's true.  I'm so honored.  About time too.  Let's get those Nigerians! 

I just have to provide them with my bank account information and I can help the FBI catch those evil Nigerian spammers. 

Oddly enough,  ::) the FBI's email got put into my spam folder by accident.  Glad to see they're saving postage with email nowadays.

Maybe I should email back and ask if they want my credit card number too.  I can help the FBI catch criminals by allowing them to use both my bank account and my credit card.   8) ;)


Somewhere out there someone is learning a lot about creative writing.   8)  You just can't buy entertainment like this.

I write with my right hand, but I prefer to paint (walls, fences etc) with my left.

I love fishing, but when I catch the fish someone else has to get it off the hook.

I try not to step on living creatures when I walk outside.

I capture animals in my house and release them outside (even poisonous ones whch is always a real military operation).

When I was 9 years old I forgot to return a video to the video store for a few months and the fine was over $200. I had to work in the store cleaning the video cases to pay it off.

You may not know, but I've been offerred a very large sume of money, not by the Nigerians this time, but by some God-fearing christians.  Like in the millions of the dollars.  Yeah.  So maybe I'll pass on the half million dollar performance musician deal.  Or I could do both.  Who knows? 

Funny how such large amounts of money are only offered through email.  I didn't even have to sign for anything.
