70. When I do rock, paper, scissors I always do rock first.

I do rock first, too.

Must have some underlying meaning.

You wanna rock with me?

According to expert rock paper scissors players (yes, they do exist!), inexperienced players do rock first most of the time, so the best move to always do first is paper. It's because in a persons mind, a rock is the strongest.

Interesting stuff about you there. The one that sticks out the most is "I now understand my mother". I feel the same way about my dad. I don't necessarily agree with everything he's done, but I've made the same mistakes he did, and I now understand how easy it is to not be perfect, no matter how hard I try otherwise.

Is fear of garbage disposals "irrational"? I think they are pretty scary, but I've had to change a few, so that might be why.

My fear of garbage disposals is irrational. When I have to stick my hands down there, I have to breath deeply and check the switch 200 times to make sure it's off.

Wow! Very cool and interesting list. And a awesome idea.

Although I have to admit the one that most caught my eye was:

19. I can still put my feet behind my head.

I had a strange irrational fear as a young person. I used to fear mailboxes. Not the mailbox itself, but the idea of them. I would place mail inside, and then continue to look in the flap to make certain it had gone down the flue. I then would go off into a frenzy thinking "am I sure I actually put the mail in there?" Once, my mom sent me to the corner box with some parcels, and by the time I got home, she asked if I was sure I got it in the box. I wasn't sure, I was terrified that maybe I was remembering wrong, so I said I didn't know. A few months later we got a double magazine subscription of "Mother Earth News" in the mail, and at that point, I was certain that I had got the first one in the box....

Yeah I've always joked about making that my personals ad. I'm thinkin my phone would ring off the hook.

It's true. I still do it at parties after a bit too much brew.

What a shame, I've got this really bad habit of biting my finger nails.

sorry you don't make it thru the filter.

Very nice list. Alot of it makes sense too. I also think you could write a book, go for it !

You get headaches everyday because you overthink everything. Or it's because you got a concussion or some form of a head injury from that elephant blowing snot on you.

Would it be okay if he bites your nails ? Just wondering.

Taltos · 02-13-2007, 12:01 PM

No, I think the headache are a result of catching
Mad Elephant disease from that sneeze!

Dr. Suess is in da house!!!
