    I also didn't have my first kiss until I was 22 (although I think most people wouldn't be surprised by that information).

    Wow...it is a small world.

    If she posts here I don't know what alias she uses. I saw her recently, hopefully we can all get together sometime when I am up that way. She doesn't think "J" and I would get along, but I am normally fairly easy to get along with.

    You knew me well enough to figure out who I was from what I posted, but I haven't figured out who you are yet. Do I get a clue, can I buy a vowel? :p

    Whoa Mr. Deckard. We might need a rainy, wet rooftop to settle it.

    Seriously, I'm reminded of the movie EVERY time you post and always wait patiently for your pictorial responses.

    As for me, and because I am a smoker, nobody ever would guess that I've participated in a dozen or so triathlons, a couple of biathlons and one marathon...as a smoker.

    Also, I'm really a raccoon.

    I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently. Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row. I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone playing, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute Brownies in twenty minutes. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in Peru. Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I play bluegrass cello, I was scouted by the Mets, I am the subject of numerous documentaries. When I'm bored, I build large suspension bridges in my yard. I enjoy urban hang gliding. On Wednesdays, after school, I repair electrical appliances free of charge. I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie. Critics worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy evening wear. I don't perspire. I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan mail. I have been caller number nine and have won the weekend passes. Last summer I toured New Jersey with a traveling centrifugal-force demonstration. I bat 400. My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. Children trust me. I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I know the exact location of every food item in the supermarket. I have performed several covert operations for the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery. The laws of physics do not apply to me. I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills are all paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. I have made extraordinary four course meals using only a mouli and a toaster oven. I breed prizewinning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff-diving competitions in Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin. I have played Hamlet, I have performed open-heart surgery, and I have spoken with Elvis.

    My high school English teacher read this to us. I think it's part of someone's college application essay.

    Winner!


    True story: My family got to the South this way. My great, great grandfather (on my maternal grandmother's side) was carpetbagger who moved from Connecticut after the Civil War. Left his wife and family and a court date for a robbery arrest, moved to New Orleans and made up a new last name. The name Plattsmier only goes back to the 1870s, and all of them are related to me.

    I'm not obsessed, but I'm somewhat fascinated with the "Paul is Dead" theory. Guess cause I'm a big Beatles fan. I don't know. Like I'll know about all the clues in the songs and on there album covers.

    I used to have a t-shirt that said "Smartest Guys in the Room." I may still have it.

    I have never done any illegal drugs or abused the prescriptions one I was given.


    I do love the hell out of all types of liquor but don't enjoy beer.

    I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.
