The 20 Facts Game
November 14th, 2005 • Related • Filed Under
Charles over at LikeBanana has tagged me for the “20 Random Facts About You” game. He’s got a pretty cool blog going, particularly when you are looking for slices of “gay” and “Norweigan” at the same time. And I can’t really think of a time when that’s NOT the case. At any rate, here we go:
- I was born in Miami, Florida.
- I am the last of seven brothers and sisters, though am only close with a handful of them.
- I turned five years old in Cairo, Egypt.
- At 27 years old, I don’t, and never have had, a driver’s license.
- I lived for four years on a sailboat in the US Virgin Islands.
- I frikkin’ can’t stand Los Angeles.
- I missed out on a dotcom fortune by about 6 months.
- Being a spammer continues to be a large part of what I do for a living.
- I have a cat named Ed, and I commissioned an oil portrait of him by an Australian lesbian.
- I am all set with the IRS.
- Sometimes, I miss NYC. Other times, not so much.
- I cannot maintain more than approximately 4 friendships at any given time.
- I stole my first car when I was 11 years old, and got it stuck on a beach before abandoning it.
- In spite of being kind of a jerk most of the time, I consider myself more caring towards others than most.
- During my single days, I once made out with a stripper who was wearing silver pants and had a tramp stamp that haunts me.
- The last five pairs of shoes I have purchased have been New Balance 574s.
- I will be getting married in February, 2007.
- My parents live in FL, and I wish I could see them more than about once per year.
- I have my own secret, made up set of rules of conduct that exist only in my mind, and I become furious when they are violated by those around me.
- I am not religious, or even spiritual. If I have one driving rule, it is: “Be a better man.”
That’s it. All true. Enjoy.
