Although he blames others, I blame cbullitt for this. The meme requires the recipient (mwah) to post 10 True Facts about himself/herself (mwah also) and to nominate 10 more suckers. At this rate the entire blogosphere should be covered in a matter of days. So here we go:
1. The Beatles’ “Hard Day’s Night” was the first record I owned, and it was a 45rpm. I liked the B-side better: “I Should’ve Known Better.”
2. Once I played rhythm guitar for a LDS teen dance without knowing all the chord patterns for some of the songs, so I just turned my volume down to -1 and faked it.
3. I understand trigonometry but not calculus.
4. Terry Gilliam’s “Brazil” is one of my favorite movies, as is “The Caine Mutiny” and “Cool Hand Luke.”
5. I’ve read David Kahn’s “The Code Breakers” unabridged version and understood a lot of it.
6. I played the part of “Action” in a high school production of West Side Story, and I was a catlike ball of fury.
7. I was born with heterochromia, but I’ve never suffered because of it.
8. I can use the word “polyisocyanurate” correctly in a spoken sentence without stuttering.
9. My ancestry includes Scottish, Irish, English, German, Swedish and 1600’s Italian royalty. In other words, European Mutt.
10. In the mid-1980s I decided to see how much junk mail was generated from information request postcards from construction industry trade magazines. The result? A LOT. The name I filled in that generated the most unrequested junk mail was… Bunk Strutts.
Now for the hard part. In no particular order:
1. Notoriously Conservative
2. Amy Oops
3. Finnicky Penguin
4. Planetross
5. Phil
6. Dan@Rockhoppers
7. Archie
8. The Literary Horse
9. Chiquiworld
10. Hanuman
