Seven Interesting Things
Last month, the mad woman over at Chased by Children tagged me for a meme. I’m suppose to write seven interesting things about myself — six true and one false. I don’t know if these are interesting or not, but here goes:
-
I worked part-time as a male stripper in college. Women at bachelorette parties were the biggest tippers and sorority girls were the worst.
-
I worked in Japan for a week. While there, a former NEC executive tried to set me up with his daughter. He even had her fly to America to visit me. My bad. I should have told him I was already dating someone, but I didn’t expect to ever see his daughter again.
-
I can’t drive a stick very well. In college, I forgot to step on the brake pedal when I started a friend’s pickup …… the truck smacked into a concrete building. The building was fine, but the bumper was history. Ooops.
-
I ordered way too much soil last summer. So I removed my lawn sod, moved the soil to where the lawn was, and then placed the sod back. I essentially swept the soil underneath my lawn.
-
I never learned phonetics so I have trouble pronouncing words I’ve never heard before. Books with a lot of made-up words drive me crazy.
-
I use to be fluent in languages like Pascal, Cobol, Fortran, and Assembly. Now I’m only fluent in English.
-
I was born with an extra finger on my left hand. It was surgically removed when I was six. Just the extra finger, not the entire left hand.
So, which one is not true?

I’m going to go with the stripper one. It just doesn’t seem true.
All the other ones, though, are a possibility.

I’ll send you my calendar.
I’m with comment one - the stripper - not cos I think you couldn’t but I am yet to meet an engineers who would unless under the influence and you just don’t read like an under the influence type :) hee hee le

That’s because you never met me. I’m different. Very different.
HEY **I** was gonna say stripper, too.
You do give answers later, right???

Would you believe they are all true? Just kidding. I have not decided if I should reveal the answer. A guy is entitled to his secrets, right?
I agree. The stripper one. I’m pretty lewd and something of a social nudist (don’t ask) and I couldn’t strip. So I’m going with that one!

It’s not that hard. Just turn on the music and drink a lot of beer. The hard part is swinging around the pole without falling when you’re drunk.
I think I’d have a hard time swinging on a pole without any drink in me!

Definitely #5. It rings so hollow. It’s gotta be the false one.

What if I mention that when I started school in America I didn’t speak any English and didn’t know my ABC’s.
Ha ha! Hmmmm so many good choices up there. Loved the language twist…I’m now fluent in a few extras with names like java script, html, etc…LOL
Hugs,
Holly

Oh, you got that. I wasn’t hoping someone thought I made up those languages.
I agree with desert songbird. #5 sounds fishy.

Just because it sounds fishy doesn’t mean it’s not true.
I’m with most of the above, you were never a stripper! No way man… you are too ….. conservative! lol
Read Chris H´s recent blog post..DAMN IT….. DOUBLE DAMN IT.
I’m conservative on some issues and liberal on others.
Since you deny number 1. I go with number 4. Sounds like too much work.
It is believable so I think it is a trick.

I’m not denying anything. Just confusing people.
Please tell me it’s number 1. Don’t ruin the image I have of Daddy Forever!!! OK - you didn’t really have six fingers, did you?

Let’s just say birth defects are not unusual in Hong Kong (back when I was born in the 1500’s).
I was going to say #1, but then…maybe it’s true. Perhaps that’s why you rarely post photos of yourself…so you aren’t recognized and called out as a stripper!

I’m just glad no one has recognize me from my adult movies.
I think #3 is the untrue one. ;) The running into the building part.

It’s possible, isn’t it? A car with a stick will move forward if the parking brake isn’t on and you don’t have your foot on the brake pedal.
For some reason I think you know more than just English. Yeah those others are considered ancient languages, but at the very least you should know how to speak Oregon. You know, laid back and with Berkinstocks…
