1. I can't tie my shoelaces or neckties correctly. But, I get along somehow. Also I can't play cards. I don't mean play *well*; I mean play AT ALL. Mental block. / That's Two (Two! two) Truths in One!, ain't it? 1(c): I sometimes cheat.
2. I had lunch with Robert Penn Warren and watched a baby pull his nose. ("Man had a rather prominent proboscis..." - WC Fields)
3. I love WC Fields. Also WB Yeats. Also WF Buckley Jr., though I don't agree with him any more. Also Groucho Marx, Tom Lehrer, Tom Smothers, Stephen King, Allan Sherman, that old reprobate Liam Clancy, his young niece Aiofe Clancy (oy!), Bob Dylan, Bob Dole (though I don't agree with *him* any more either), and my Sixfoot Wife and darling Pookason. Not in that order of course.
4. I withdrew from Georgetown University. Three times.
5. I sometimes write strangely. Maybe that one's not so Obscure.
6. My feet stink. That one's fairly obscure, except to my Sixfoot Wife.
7. Did I mention I have a Sixfoot Wife?
8. I'm happy to learn some other 'Catters are self-absorbed too. :)
9. I was once in the Peanut Gallery on Howdy Doody.
10. I wrote Connecticut's Presidential Primary Law, and rewrote our absentee-voting laws. (It was while I was in the Peanut Gallery...nowait, that part goes on the other thread. Sorry.)
