Six degrees of

I want to be like Jesse and Seventh Ward, I am bored, and I need something to blog about, so here goes: Six factoids about me ...

1. I can remember the birthday of every single human being I've ever met, including my best friend in first grade
2.) When I was 6, I wrote a novella, still unpublished, about a mischievous squirrel which was titled "Catch that Daredevil!"
3.) I have twice been complimented on my ability to speak fluent English. Once was by an elderly American man on the subway in Munich. He wasn't even embarrassed when I explained that it is my native tongue.
4.) I have seen hundreds of naked Germans, and through this I became aware that circumcision is not common in Europe. I will not elaborate.
5.) In 2001 I was turned down for a job at the "Sedona Journal of Emergence!", a wildly popular publication in which aliens and other-worldly beings and spirits "channel" through lucky humans.
6.) When I was 3, I went through a phase in which I had an alter ego as a dog named Shelly who barked a lot.

  • Six Pak:
    a. Just for the record: The York incident wasn't quite as dramatic as you so describe, and I'm trying to remember if that was the night Harry was "overserved," although I'm thinking it was not,
    b. You don't know how to spell "tongue,"
    c. Thanks for the post ... just getting a post makes me cry for joy,
    d. I had to look up Dick Butkus. The name was kinda familiar but still I was unsure.
