What is the subject matter of your novels?
You've got me interested in that unique genetic abnormality that you share with Richard Burton.
Richard Nixon????
Is the nerve pain reflex sympathetic dystrophy?
Christine must have been a looker!
Good for you on the quitting smoking. Stay away from gas and herion!
You cynical, misanthropic?.....nah! Just misunderstood.



I spent one of my honeymoon nights with Jack Nicklaus, the golfer. :blink:

I don't really talk about the gene's and Burton and nerve pain things. It's all too complicated and messy to explain.
AS for Nixon. WEll like I said if it wasn't for him we could have had WW3 'cause another President might have stood up to USSR in the wrong way and provoked conflict or another President might not have stood up to them enough and we'd have ended up under a USSR hegemony. I think Nixon played a tought game in just the right way. I know a lot of people imagine it's not that tough a game and you can survive without playing it tough like Nixon did. They're wrong!!

Jack Nichaulus is a good one!! What about the other 24?

I hate to admit that I agree with you somewhat about Nixon's role in foreign affairs.

Fact #2: I've been in a mosh pit and loved it.

Wait, what's the deal with Nicklaus? He is/was a hero of mine. Maybe I have a new reason for that.
Everybody's got something to hide 'cept for me and my monkey.

Well - I'm sure most people wondered when they read that! I though I may as well ask. Mr. Mustard can tell us to mind our own business, but I guess he didn't have to share that information with us in the first place!

I never thought to put really. You've got to remember that it's not something I'm bragging about or w/e...In fact the subject is monumnetaly boring to me....but, I started fires in buildings twice...I had issues as they say!
also, i wasn't going to put this 'cause it's seems too defenseive or something but I came acrosss a thread on another site called 25 random things...and just copied what I put there to here...with a bit of rewriting for various reasons.

Also I was hoping more post 25 things...Y'see I'm not just attention seeking!!

I could never understand Ulysses either. At least I can say I've attempted to read it.

If your genetic abnormality is 'unique' how can both you and Richard Burton suffer from it? (Sorry, semantics, I know).

Is there any hard drug you haven't tried or had contact with?

Two random facts about me:

I used to have six toes on my left foot.

I indirectly got a man killed about eleven years ago. No, seriously.
I don't believe in Bondi. I don't believe in rugby league. I believe in Yoko, John Lennon, the Lost Weekend and me.

good point...the therapist used the word and I keep forgetting that after realising what you just pointed out I revised it to extremely unusual! Also they're are a few differences apart from the superficial one that make my case a bit more unusual and debilitating than Burtons. The superficial one being he just happened to have the remarkable good fortune to be extraordinarily good looking and therefore the opportunity to be paid a fortune for acting therefore having his living handed too him on a plate.

r.e-hard drugs...didn't you read it all!!!

YOu're two are interesting. Esp. the second!!!

After perservereing with about 80 pages of it, I just wanted to slap him and say "Okay, you're very, very clever. Now just shut up and tell the f*cking story!" I mean, I love language and I'm all for wordiness but I think Joyce crosses the line into literary masturbation. Portrait of the young man as an artist!

Well, I didn't actually say to someone 'go and knock off this bloke', but it was something I said in passing. It's not nearly as interesting as it sounds.

That makes it sound even more interesting. You said something in passing and then someone went and killed someone...?????

I had gone out for a drink one night at my local pub and this guy started chatting me up. We had been talking for a while when these two other blokes came over and said 'Is this joker harrassing you, miss?'

Jokingly, I said yes.

They then without warning glassed this guy in the face and smacked him up with a pool cue. He was taken to the hospital, but died later from blood loss.

I've never forgotten it, and I've never made a joke like that again.

Holy Shit Clare!!!!!!! How terrible for the guy who died and for you!!! yeah I would never attempt to make a joke about anything either. What happened to the guys who beat him up?
