1) I spent 6 years in college just to enter a career not related remotely close to my major

2) I first got interested in fish keeping because it appealed to my DIY side

3) I once made the opening credits of Sports Center for fighting with a mascot at a U of Iowa game

4) I once received letters from the RIAA, MPAA, FBI, and ISU, telling me to "change my computer habits"

5) I was once asked to join Mensa after taking the entrance exam on a dare, after being denied entrance to 4 colleges.

Bobby, I am so glad that you can keep the dragon in the cage as many are unable to keep him there. I'm proud of you. He almost destroyed my life 25 years ago. He's just a faint memory now.

[lReef lKeeper]

thanks Lori, he is in the cage and will NOT get out again.

V, the talk does not bother me at all. dont change anything because you know that about me now !! i like you just the way you are.
i hang out with people who drink, and i do not have a problem with it.
