an easy game to play

here is a new game with one rule: post some random bits of information from the databank of your mind/personality.

i think the two best naturally-occuring foods in the world are honey and grapefruit.

random childhood memory: the first time i was in washington d.c., i was probably around 4 years old. i remember seeing the washington monument out my window, and thinking to myself that it looked like a great big sharp pencil. then i remember asking mom, "hey mom, look at that thing. is that pencil-vania?" because of course, i didn't know what pennsylvania really was.

i am afraid of deep, dark water with slimy dangerous things in it, and when i see deep undersea pictures like in National Geographic, i get dizzy.

i love to read strangers' blogs.

i paid for some music in british pounds yesterday.

things i made my sister memorize when we were little: the moons of all the planets, the laws of thermodynamics, most of the constellations, all the parts of a horse's hoof and all the possible horse-forehead markings.

i have an "extra" bone in my right hand, on my pinky-finger bone, that moves only when i move my pinky.

i never saw Titanic.

i often wonder if we will ever know who really killed john kennedy, and how many corrupt deals and bribes and cover-ups happen every day that i wish i knew about, but am glad i don't because my already-shaky faith in mankind would totally collapse and i would become a jungle-hermit.

i hate things where there is no right or wrong answer, like art and writing. everyone is right. what's the point?? :)

i have visited 38/50 states.

my family used to sing oldie gospel songs together in front of church. we don't do anything like that any more.

i don't have any deep, dark secrets, but i wish i did.

at some point or another in my life, i wanted to be a physicist, politician, storm chaser, astronomer, artist, chef, journalist, linguist, veterinarian and pilot...and once my little sister told me i should be a pirate.

remember when elian gonzales was kidnapped from his house by those US guys and sent back to live in cuba? well, when that happened i was probably ten or so, and i was upset that it took everyone by surprise, and that i didn't know about it in advance.

i collect old classic books and i've bought most of them on eBay.
