They're all true, even number one in a paradoxical way. Frame and Grig were spot on. Close enough for those who said 1 is false. You're not wrong either, just not completely right. ![]()
2. Can't fly because of dreams. 'Nuff said.
3. 7 summers of learning self defensive cane fighting under the tutelage of my neighbor of all people in Hap Ki Do.
4. Raped. Without graphical details, I'll explain. For years I blamed myself for putting myself "in that position." I wasn't enlightened until recently a friend disclosed they were raped. I discussed my first experience. They asked me if I wanted to have sex. "No." They then asked me if I resisted and said no, but it happened anyway. "Yes." "Then that's called rape." I could've been more responsible, yes. But that doesn't mean that it wasn't taken away from me forcefully.
5. Brothers: Chris died in a house fire in which he was trapped in a bedroom. (Not my house.) Kevin committed suicide one year later, at the site of the burnt down house. Chris was in his young 20's, Kevin about 30. My Dad was 40 when I was born, hence the age difference.
6. I bleach my hair sometimes. Here's the truth. If you want to quibble,I was going through the transformation in the 3 year-old pic.

7. Brothers Part 2: Greg is a social worker for young orphaned and troubled teens. Franklin was a drug addict who pled guilty to a murder to protect a friend. Not noble, just stupid.
8. I did paint our entire house last December-ish. It was built with white drywall everywhere. Very blinding.
9. Doctors thought I had Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome because of my gastrin levels and presumed with the rate at which I was losing weight and being malnourished I wouldn't live to be 25 at best.
10. I collect computers from all of my family members because I can work on them. I've had about 15 or so they assumed were "broken beyond repair." I rescued all but 2, eventually giving them away or tossing them when the parts were more than new PC's as a whole.
11. When working as a deejay in 2000-01, Jaime, Gina, Amber, Naghma, Toni, Angie, Jennifer and Carrie were all interested in me to some degree. I chose Toni and now we are wed.
12. We outfitted that kitchen solely with yard sale and homemade furnishings. I got that 1925 oak kitchen table for $60 and completely refinished it. The framed pic is a puzzle I did, everything on the wall is yard sale (some refurbished) and even the bar stools were yard sale finds.
13. At a Halloween party, I was on the trampoline with several friends. All left but one girl, who subsequently jumped on me and tried to have sex with me. I pushed her off. She said she was "just kidding." That's not what her hands said a second earlier.
14. I walked with Professor Laura from Dreiser Hall to Root Hall after psychology because we were merely headed from there to the same building afterwards, and we'd talk.Next thing I knew, I was accused of having an affair with our teacher. Nope.
15. Toni and I were....poor, but in love. We got silver bands for $10 each (plus tax), and were married at the courthouse, I in my only suit and her in her only dress. Mom and Dad,Toni's 4 girls and one of my sisters and her husband were there as witnesses. Best day of my life ever. No $20,000 wedding needed.

Great times,dude!
@GeekyDad:
@Frame Dragger: Heh, yeah that took some juevos. Oh wait, I can't post in other languages. Uh, thanks!
@lightwarrior179: Yeah, even I can pull one out every now and then. I savor it when I do.
@polsci1503: Eh, sorry to hear that. Happens when you've been single for a while.
BTW, I was one of the few who chose #1.
@Kleeyook: Well yeah, that was the point.
@transilvanien: Thanks! As for the pic, eh. Either people will like me or not. If not because of some silly picture, oh well.
@twilightlullaby:
@korino55: Come to think of it, it was awfully dark that night. I feel so...unclean.
@johnsteed7: WTF at which part exactly? The whole thing?
@MJoanne: Um, a cyber hug? It's about the best I can do with the economy the way it is these days.

Most rapes on women aren't violent other, but they're no less rape. No difference between men and women either.
An expensive wedding and rings seems like a waste of money to me actually.
@Foolz3h: You are indeed the man. Bastard-man, but da man nonetheless.
@SquareEnixFan13: Hey, it's cool. Don't shed any tears for me or think I'm crazy. (Well, you can think I'm crazy I guess.
@jasra58: Sure, there were some tough times, but I don't carry the weight of those emotion with me. *shrug* I can't dwell on the past, or it would haunt me too much.
