I'm guessing you'd be surprised to know I'm a recycler...I particularly go out of my way to recycle...looking for a way to start paper recycling in our office building. I take my son on an outing every Saturday morning, while my wife sleeps. It's just father-son time...we go to breakfast..to the park...to anywhere...but our first stop is the newspaper recycling bin, where I unload my stash of the week's newspapers. I'm betting you wouldn't have guessed that about me (since I'm an evil christian conservative who just wants to lynch everyone who steps out of line! )....what would surprise me about you??
I'm not nearly as anti-gun as I used to be (no, that's not me getting more conservative in my "old" age, giddyup ). I love cotton panties (on girls, of course, not on me). My Dad's black. (Inside joke between me and RM95's Girl. She dated an African-American for a long period of time, and at the beginning of our relationship, she asked me if that bothered her...that was my response. I don't know why we find that funny.) The people I'm always most excited about meeting from the BBS are the ones I differ with the most (Kagy, MadMax, TheFreak, etc.).
I love patriotic stuff. We have the flag flying in front of our house as well as red, white and blue lights around our front porch. In fact, we're getting ready to turn the back room of our house into a game room and it's going to be all red, white and blue. I burst into tears every time I hear "America the Beautiful" and I get all choked up when I watch Fourth of July celebrations. And don't even get me started on the Statue of Liberty ...
see...that's soooo cool! it's so interesting to learn that about you! good thread topic, if i do say so myself!!!
you might be surprised to know that i'm still able to bill hours to my client during the day while monitoring this website and listening to either sports radio or music!
I have a third nipple. (j/k) I too am a conserving conservative. I recycle and pick up litter when I can. Mrs. JB - I knew you were cool! I used to want a red/white/blue Mustang. You have to post some pics of your new room. I am very patriotic, I get choked up anytime I see something about the WTC or even the Marines commercial that plays before a movie where the guy is rock climbing. I have always been that way, especially when I watch RED DAWN - WOLVERINES!!!
I have an outstanding memory about trivial things. Like for example, I know all the World Series winners since 1903 and the Super Bowl Winners. I also could recite the Presidents of the US frontwards and backwards when I was 7 (I can still do this by the way). Then on the other hand, maybe revealing this info is not surprising to people here. Hmmm...the other thing that I could say is that I'm a very shy person in real life. It is only after knowing someone for a while, that I will overcome that initial shyness.
Mine is similar to Manny's...I know a lot about "nothing". I know trivial stuff in general...not all the world series winners! But I do know the capital of every country in the world... I love sports, music, and movies entirely too much. I have won several contests centered around the 3 based on tests and such...and I really need a life. Doh. Oh..and I almost got on Jeopardy! almost...
I have a screw in my left foot. I have lived in 3 different countries, 10 cities and 20 different homes/apartments. (My parents were not in the military) I was in a phantom accident at about 70 miles an hour that should have killed me, yet both my car and vehicle survived without a scratch. And for the huge surprise - my real name isn't B. B
What would surprise everyone here,is that Im part of only a handful of people thats knows what will happen to Mr Woods. at the British Open. Ill give you a hint.It will be the most stunning bit of history of any sports star EVER. Ive said to much already.But I do have a source I will name after the Open to prove my point.
