3. My brain has been targeted by the Republican Conversion Rays...
The only cure is to post on DU.. Must post and read Democratic Underground or else I shall fall victim to the Republicanization of the world.

DU is the cure. DU is the cure.

Must keep posting...

4. A verse translation:
Catullus 51

He who always sits with you, and who gazes
at you, and who hears you so sweetly laughing,
seems to me to equal a god, and sometimes
even surpass one -


if a thing like that is all right to say. What
misery! This rips away all my senses.
When I see you, Lesbia, I am tongue tied.
Words seem to fail.


Flames run through my body, and down my limbs. My
two ears ring and buzz, and my eyes now fail me,
covered, as they are, with a blinding darkness
blacker than midnight.

6. I have a talent for getting hopelessly, senselessly,
ridiculously lost when I'm driving. No one can get as lost and stay as lost as I can.

10. Let's see. The list is long.
The first time I was on stage I got applause after I finished; also happened a week later. It was in "The Merchant of Venice".

I came in first in my division at the first Tae Kwon Do tournament I went to. Came in in second a few weeks later; a black belt beat me by 2-3 tenths of a point! Not bad considering I had only been training for six months.

I found a security flaw in the Microsoft AntiSpyware within the first 24 hours after it came out, in January (?) Recently I have also found a new virus and am just waiting for the confirmation. Back in December I got a Microsoft Achievement Award for finding a flaw in Norton AntiSpam that was preventing users from getting on the internet.

I forget a few other things ..........

23. due to modest success as an athlete and writer my ego is second to none...
Not even Bono, Sting or Russell Crowe!

It is partly inflated by the time I banged a chick almost a foot taller than me too. (crude I know, but let's just call it what it was) But that's been a while. And, alcohol was involved.I am a sad, sad clown. :+
