I found out my surname means "left" in Lithuanian. Especially weird, considering i'm left handed and left-wing. Then again, i'm always right :D

My parents middle names are Mary and Joseph. (Think about it)

I fell off a motorbike at 80km/h once, and through amazing luck, survived with only a minor graze to the chin and not a single bruise, even though I was only wearing shorts and a t-shirt. EDIT- And a helmet, of course.

I used to hate pretty much all music only a few years ago, because I hated the popular trends. Now, I play guitar and I just started a band. The really ironic thing is that my favourite band is now Nirvana, the most popular rock group of the 90's (incase you were living in a hole for the last 15 years).

Nirvana, hmm, that reminds me. I tried pot (out of a bong) for the first time before I tried tobacco, and I was drunk at the time. The combination of alcohol and being a virgin smoker almost blew my nuts off. What's that got to do with Nirvana? We were watching Live, Tonight, Sold Out at the time.

I taught myself to read when I was only four, using Sesame Street to help me sound out the alphabet.

Once, I had to do reconciliation at church. Well, I went in there and made up some bogus story about how I stole a younger kid's lunch and had to say the Lords prayer and apologise to the kid. A month later when I had to do confession again, I confessed that I had made up a bogus story last time. I had to say 20 Lords Prayers.

I went through 7 Years of Catholic School, and I Still don't know the Hail Mary. Haha.

(edit- thought of another one :)) I wrote a simple game on a computer using QBasic when I was 8 or 9. It was of course, crap, but at the time I was pretty pleased with myself.

Hmm, maybe i'll think of more later. Anyone got any of theirs they want to share?

All I can think of right now is that I recently bought a $ 220 exercise bike even though I'm fairly fit.

Its just dandy to hang my clothes on to dry properly. All the time. :rolleyes:

Well, I * did *, though the period of activity was limited some-what ...

To about 2 days or so. Now I hang me clothes on it. More often then not. :)

Hehe. It's cheaper to go to a gym and use one there, you'll keep up the fitness training for just as long anyway :)

Funny thing about me - Some ppl used to say I used to look like Jesus w/my mullet (but now I have a short ponytail), and I was almost named Joshua at birth. Funny thing is that the name 'Jesus' is actually a variant of the name Joshua . . .
