Hey, stonysleep, I think I have a 'partially photographic memory,' too! Anybody know a way to verify the possession of a photographic memory?

[iKitten]

Is there a reason you jog 3 miles only on Sunday?

 

[Flic]

C'Mon stretch...

Coaches can teach shooting.
Coaches can teach defense.
Coaches can teach rebounding.
Coaches can NOT teach height!!

Can they teach jumping? My friends all say I get shorter when I jump.

*hugs iKitten*

And RIDE, that's not true. You can teach height, it'd just be a wee bit painful neye:

and archaic...

When I was about six I was forgotten at the Airport. Three carloads of people farewelling our Grandparents left, thinking, I was in one of the other two cars. I wasn't. I was outside on the viewing deck watching, through the telescopes, the planes take off.

Realising that none of my family was around I walked around the Airport looking for them. I wasn't scared. I was very calm. I was enjoying myself. I explored every part of the terminal and probably saw some things I shouldn't have.

Finally, thinking my family might be getting worried, I walked up to the prettiest Flight Attendant I could find and told her I was a poor lost, abandoned little boy. I got hugs, kisses, lollies from half the girls working at the Airport that day.

To this day when I go to the Airport I get a special thrill.

I can run the four minute mile in twelve minutes flat. I speak every dialect of English known to man, except for the ones that use funny-sounding words. I have numerous black belts, including a nice braided leather one from JC Penny. I am neither a space cowboy nor a gangster of love. I'm old enough to know right from wrong, but young enough not to care. I've been lucky at cards and lucky at love on the same night. People who don't know any better respect me tremendously. Sheep fear me, though squirrels do not. I am bigger than a breadbox.

I've been a rag merchant, a teacher, and an international arms dealer. I've been a poet and a philosopher, but now I know better. I've been from sea to shining sea, though I've yet to see a purple mountain. I've been a President. I've been a Champion. I have been "It" with no backsies. I've been a guest speaker, guest instructor, guest of honor, and guest at the White House. I've met Presidents, Supreme Court Justices, Congressmen, and even some important people. I've been on stage, been on television, been in the newspaper, and been on antibiotics. I'm a Republican, a Federalist, and a Hilton Honors Diamond member. I've seen the other side, and my grass is greener. I've skipped rope, skipped rocks, and skipped class ... but I never skip dinner.

I've seen them come and seen them go. I've looked high and low. I've traveled near and far. I've been up and down, sometimes simultaneously. I've run in circles, run from the police, and run a fever. I have jumped out of airplanes, swum with sharks, and eaten the worm. I have even told my wife, "Yes, that does make you look fat," and lived to tell the tale. I've trained with the best, seen the worst, and come out laughing. I've made women swoon, men cry, and children laugh. I've made my bed (and then lied in it). I've lifted weights, lifted spirits, and lifted $5 without getting caught. I've been a witness, an advocate, judge, jury, & executioner. At times I have bobbed, weaved, parried, and/or feinted. I've thrown dirty looks, impolite barbs, and fabulous parties.

I can program a VCR. I can say the alphabet backwards in six seconds ... four seconds when I'm drunk. I am recognized as one of the world's foremost experts at full-contact Scrabble. I don't make promises I can't keep, deals that aren't fair, or coffee. I always look both ways when crossing the street, always wear my seatbelt, but never read the fine print. I can turn on a dime and come to a complete stop in less than 100 feet. I'm free to move about the cabin. I can assassinate a character at ranges up to 1000yds. I can spell pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. I can recite the preamble to the Constitution from memory. I can do the Time Warp, the Macarena, and the New York Times crossword ... but never voluntarily. I can balance a spoon on my nose and vibrate my eyes. I drive fast, shoot fast, and eat fast which is to be expected; out of 1,000,000 sperm I was the fastest, after all. I regularly read my own mind without even trying.

I've been known to solve all the world's problems during my lunch break. On a good day, I can see forever. I can Yahoo, I can Google, and I have even Asked Jeeves. I could be omniscient if I only knew how. I am not superstitious, because I know that bad things always happen to superstitious people. I'm an animal, perhaps at times a vegetable, but never a mineral. I always believed it was the one-armed man. My ancestors have been warriors, slaves, holy men, bankers, and movie producers. I've been a virgo since childhood, and probably always will be. The world would be a much better place if I was in charge, but probably not for the rest of you.

I'm a realist, a skeptic, and a pessimist. Ironically, my blood type is B-positive.

I am 100% made in America.

ok, how can somebody write something like this and say nothing about it! This is the best thing written on mac-forums (you did write this no? ) great job todd.

 

[Carol247]

Well, here goes...
1. I like candy with nuts
2. I love sunshine in the winter when everything is covered with ice.
3. I love thunder and lightening (awesome)
4. I knew Elvis when I was a kid and he also was just a kid (older than me of course)
5. I love Mexico

That's enough for now.

 

[Carol247]

I agree PowerBook,
Todd is quite a writer and that is a great post. Never seen anything like it! A totally captivating read...thanks Todd!

 

[mathogre]

Okay, some things about me...

I don't do guilt. I choose, I live with the choice, and I look back only to learn from what I did. I don't do "what if". I don't regret.

I have never been lonely. I thought I was one time in the past, but then it turned out to be based on a false premise.

I enjoy solitude. For instance, I work on Saturdays, which means I work in a 6 floor building almost completely by myself. Security comes by once or twice during the day, but mostly the place is mine. It's great!

I'm a social pariah. I find it very difficult to be in social situations, though almost univerally people tell me I do fine. I am forever asking trusted individuals (wife, friends, close associates) if I behaved properly in social situations, as I am practically blind/deaf to social protocols.

Sometimes I think I must be mad, but then I realize I'm only crazy. in the mid 1970s a friend and I listened to a group of people talk. Even then, as teenagers we knew these people were unstable. In 1997 that group publicly committed suicide. They were the Heaven's Gate people.

I didn't comment on ToddG's post because I couldn't. I was speechless at the brilliance. :dummy:

 

[MaDDoG]

ToddG - words escape me but that is only because that was fabulous. I wish I could write half that well.

Me......ok.....Australian (Aussie bloke) Bit of a loner at times. I like people but I like solitude also. I think I am a good husband, father, brother, and son. I try to the best of my ability but often feel let down by myself. My brother used to say that I am too hard on myself. I just think I am hard on people. I have a harsh persona but am soft and caring. I love driving my car (nice big V8 with pleasing exhaust note.....www.hsv.com.au Model senator if any one wants to see what I have) I love the smell of rain before it arrives on a hot day, the feel of thunder and lightning and wind. Lying on my back under a sunny blue sky cloud watching. I hate being late or disorganised (actually I like to arrive early). I love my bed and love to dream. My goal in life.....to be the best person I can - that will make me happy.

Wow, G4, thanks! :ninja:

And thanks to everyone else for the kind words, as well. It's amazing what you can do when you feel like wasting time during the day.
