Re: Post a Random Fact(s) About Yourself

I play guitar and bass and would love to jam with Magster and Braxton.<br /><br />My oldest is 17 and doing gigs on bass with some high school buddies. Despite the screaming they're actually pretty good . . .<br /><br />Mrs. QC runs the local Little League Snack Bar. I am delivery driver and fill-in window boy. I say fill-in, but sometimes I am there more than she is :rolleyes: Not sure why, but my real job doesn't seem to count . . . We can gross over $3000 in sales on a Spring Saturday. Proceeds go back to the League.

Played trombone in middleschool, high school, and jazz band in college (free tuition and books for two years)<br /><br />I split firewood (with only hand tools) for exercise (it warms you at least twice that way) and stress therapy.<br /><br />I've been coaching youth soccer for about 7 years now.

I fear my dentist -- more than any other person, I think. :eek:

I sometimes pick up women in bars and bring them home where I cut them up into little pieces that fit in my freezer.....<br /><br /><br />Later I carve miniture runabout boats from their bones and sell them on ebay as genuine Inuit scrimshaw .....

"OMC, I'll just bet they were cigars." <br /> Honest LadyFish, I never tried that wacky stuff until I was working with an Itialian roofing crew the summer after I graduated. Them guys were crazy! They would be floating from roof to roof while I would be hanging on with one hand trying to drive nails with the other. :D

Re: Post a Random Fact(s) About Yourself

Played drums in the 8th grade.. Just one drum in the band..2,4 time and 4,4 time.. I just wish we had the money for the full set.. Mom said we had neighbors... So I played outside with one drum. Drove my neighbors nuts, that was the point.. I didn't like the perverted neighbor who would look in my window.. He figured it out after 3-months, that everytime he would go back in the house the drum would stop, come back out and I was pleased to serranade him with the indian song..

That's funny, I'm a pyromaniac. :D <br /><br />My neighbors:<br />"Honey, what the hell was that noise?!"<br />"I don't know, but there's smoke coming from the neighbors yard again." :rolleyes:

I would rather be in a tent than in a house. I would rather be in the country than in a city. I love the wilderness life.<br />Serenity

Just thought of another one:<br /><br />I am afraid of horses, although I think they are beautiful animals. I admire from a safe distance!

I once pretended to have a sexually transmitted disease to get a day off work to go fishing.<br /><br />Oh, and my guitar was strung by Chris Rea's old bassist.

I don't mind needles (blood tests etc), even the dentist.<br /><br />The biggest (irrational) fear I have is heights but I love the window seat on a plane - go figure.<br /><br />I ate a worm once.

I HATE needles! There's a chance I might have to have heart surgery and that's the only part that worries me. :D

Re: Post a Random Fact(s) About Yourself

I used to hate needles but I came to realise that I cut/bash/bruise myself at work everyday and I don't give it a second thought, compared to that a needle is nothing. It's the anticipation of the needle, not the pain, that scares us - IMO.<br /><br />Good luck with the possible op.<br /><br />Aldo
