100 Things About Me - Part 2
The list continued...
21. I am probably the world's worst swimmer. How I passed Lifesaving merit badge as a kid is a mystery.
22. I have an extremely wide range of interests, so much so that I never stick with one long enough to be great at it. I'm not quite a dilettante, but I personify the phrase "Jack of All Trades, Master of None".
23. I hate the climate in the sub-tropical swamp that is Houston. I'd rather freeze than sweat. Since I don't want to leave Texas, I guess I ought to move to Amarillo.
24. I have only been outside of the U.S. a few times, either in Canada or in Mexican border towns.
25. I'd like to own a trio of long-haired miniature dachshunds and a pair of Siamese cats. The dogs would be named Andouille, Kielbasa and Chorizo. The cats would be called Shiwan Khan and Yeng Ko.
26. I've started writing dozens of novels. Only two are worth completing, in my opinion.
27. If I sing around you, I'm either drunk, or truly comfortable in your presence.
28. On both the Stanford-Binet and the Wechsler, I missed "The Big G" by 4 points. This bothers me, though perhaps it shouldn't.
29. I'm not a fan of abortion as a method of birth control, but I do not believe that egg fertilization = human life. "If it were done when 't is done, then 't were well It were done quickly." Get it done early in the 1st trimester, or don't do it at all.
30. I've been hung up over various women many times, but the Love Bug has only seriously bitten twice.
31. I drive a Cadillac Fleetwood sedan, chocolate brown with tan leather interior. I call it the PimpSled.
32. I currently use a G4 flat panel iMac (the iLamp). I hope to upgrade to a G5 iMac this year.
33. I have a constant battle with entropy. My place can be perfectly clean, but it steadily devolves into squalor until guests are due to visit. The jungle is then hacked back and stuffed into closets, and the cycle repeats.
34. I would rather go to a museum than a ball game.
35. I have field-dressed a deer in less than 7 minutes. I was racing against a setting sun, and did not have a flashlight.
36. My younger sister and I were both adopted as infants.
37. I'm not a treehugger, but it would give me great pleasure to torpedo whaling ships and use a sledgehammer on people who club seal pups.
38. I own x pistols and x+1 rifles. Not nearly enough, and Hell No, I'm not stating the exact amount!
39. I think nothing tastes better than ice cold well water out of a metal dipper.
40. I've spent more money on books in the last decade than I have on vacations or dating women.
