RE: Self Description
Yeah, lyra, I think a lot of us don't want to be led and don't want to bother leading. We just want to do our own thing, sometimes alone and sometimes with other people to hang out with.

RE: Self Description
yeah, Lyndy, i always knew i ruled, and that i was goooood, but...hehe. actually, i can sort of see that...i'm going back to school next semester (i hope!) so i can be a professor. what do you do, i forget?

Tom T, i'm not too sure if they make that, or what...at the Oktoberfest, you could have a cup of beer from any one of about a dozen places that had booths set up. it was only $1 a cup! so i don't remember too clearly what exactly i drank... ;-)

Hmmmm, sounds like a lot of nice new young ladies have joined this site. Try not to scare them off, fellas. BTW, some of these people are much nicer in person than they sometimes seem online. The internet environment sometimes encourages people to "act up", IMHO.

RE: Self Description
what about Violin, TD? we both have instrument names...how did you get your name, Violin?

also, i recently learned that Lyra is a constellation, and that its mythology involves separated lovers...in-ter-est-ing.

RE: Self Description
You're going to rule over a multitude of students, lyra? But then you couldn't legally date the students. I'd rather run the local restaurant.

RE: Self Description
hahahaha!! you crack me up, Lyndy! hence the separated lovers, eh? it's not that i want to rule over them...hmm. i don't know how i'd put it. it's strange you'd mention a restaurant...that sounds just like my cup of tea! i actually came this close to dropping out of college and going to vegan cooking school in NYC. but then i had some divine intervention, and went back to school.

RE: Self Description
hey lyra, I had a notion similar to that while I was in undergraduate school, but it wasn't divine intervention, it was paternal intervention with a big stick

RE: Self Description
and the difference is... ;-)

two boys have just gotten out of sunday school, where they got a lecture about the devil. one boy says to the other, "what do you think about all that devil stuff, do you believe it?" and the other one goes, "oh, you know how it was with the Easter Bunny...it's probably just your dad."

(all tongue-in-cheek, folks!)

RE: Self Description
here's one for sarabelle:.. guy sees a dog come into his butcher shop with a $20 bill in his mouth and a note.

The note says pork chops, and tells him to weigh it out to close to $20 and keep the rest.

Butcher finds it all hard to believe but figured what the heck, slabs offa few thick chops, wraps it in paper and hands it to the dog.

Dog trots out of the store, and the butcher being curious, locks up and follows.

Dog gets waits for light to turn green, plops down on bench at bus stop, and waits.. when bus shows up, walks around in front to make sure it's the right one.

Butcher is amazed at dog's intelligence, and follows dog onto bus. The two of them ride out into the country, and dog gets up on hind legs and pulls stop cord, exiting.

Goes up to house with pork chops in mouth and drops them on the front doorstep. Dog backs up a few and runs into door, trying to get it open.

After a few tries, runs to back of house looking for an open window. Finally this guy comes to the door and lets the dog in, picking up the chops on the doorstep.

Butcher goes up to tell guy about how smart the dog is, recalling the entrie story.

The guy says, "yeah? if the dog is so smart, how come he forget his KEY for the third time this week!"

RE: Self Description
Here's me...
-Proud Canadian, British Columbian & UEL
-37 yrs old, 5'11" slim & fit
-single dad, for nearly all of my daughter's 13 yrs
-I try not to catagorize my persona by my proffesion or political inclination, by saying "I'm a ...". I'd prefer to let my personality define my proffesion. Work is work and home is home and I don't mix. Fortunately, the work part no longer requires too much, of my time and family is my focus. I don't do 'stress'
-Besides my obvious 'outdoor interests', I have a huge appetite, for fine cuisine and the arts. Living around Vancouver lets me indulge in all my favourite things, from 'Sea to Sky'

Self description usually misses the mark. I try to let other people describe who they think I am.

This is such a nice thread!

Wolfsister, MacGuyver was my hero, I loved that guy. But I'm not like that, unfortunately. Ask M&M, I had trouble at the self-serve gas pump.

Arclite is missing, must be on that airplane to AZ. I think he fits Biz's description of tall and thin. But so does LeSubtil. And they are both really good people. Le Subtil needs to get on a plane. Have a good weekend y'all.
