Subject: RE: BS: For fun - Ten obscure facts about you
Hmm. Mine are gonna suck...

1. My first pet was a goat.
2. I've never lived in one place for more than four years.
3. Despite any rumours you may have heard, I did not "kill a teacher in middle school."
4. I don't drink, do drugs, smoke, etc. The one time I ever consumed enough alcohol to affect me was at a Richard Leakey book-signing thing. I was nervous to meet him, my childhood idol, and they had free wine.
5. I personally printed 99% of the shirts for the 1996 and 2002 Paul Wellstone campaigns. And, no, I'm not one of the vultures selling them on Ebay.
6. Much to my chagrin, I recently called a kid riding his bike on my lawn "you goddamned punk." OK, I'm going to mosey on down to the senior center, now. It's pudding night.
7. I'm named after the late R&B singer Little Willie John. My father's first choice was "Otto," but my mom wouldn't go for that. Knowing that she wouldn't like his second choice, either, he lied, and told her that "Willie John" was a guy who'd saved his life in the Army. She went for that. Personally, I would've preferred "Otto."
8. I really, really like Korean food. Dead Korean food, not that live octopus type shit.
9. As a child, I faked eye problems, just so I could get some glasses.
10. I'll never go out with a woman who shares her name with one of my close relatives. Just too creepy.
