My Randomizations
- It's unlike me to respond to projects like Six Random Things - unless, of course, the TaxMan comes calling.
- I was raised on a peninsula along the shores of Lake Erie and alternately in a home facing Booby Island off the coast of Nevis in the West Indies. I come by an affinity for large bodies, of water, naturally.
- I'm apt to return lacerating cynicism with scything sarcasm and piercing satire with rapier wit, respectively and respectfully, of course. And, I can clap with one hand, either hand.
- This excerpt:
"Pongileoni surpassed himself in the final Badinerie. Euclidean axioms made holiday with the formulæ of elementary statics. Arithmetic held a wild saturnalian kermess; algebra cut capers. The music came to an end in an orgy of mathematical merry-making."
from Huxley's Point Counter Point, speaks to every facet of my brain. I like it.
- I once paid $35 to leap from the wing of an airplane featuring a faulty fuel line and a malfunctioning wheel lock.
- My adventuresome brother has now lived abroad longer than he lived in the United States. He once shared an ocean-bound ship with his nine polar bears and a group of Maori as they traveled along the coast of Madagascar en route to Japan where he now resides.
I often refer to him as, Jai Congo. Drop him in a Venezuelan jungle with a K-bar knife and a quantity of rope and he'll walk out laughing.
