Consider this a contest. The wonderful John Ricci has posted an inspiring list of 800 things you probably didn't know about him.
Here's a sampling of some of my favorite:
91. When I was in high school, most of the students were quite friendly to me.
636. When I see a theater, I say "mooovies!".
409. I still remember my high school locker combination: 29-12-30.
695. I don't walk up or down an escalator, since that sort of defeats the purpose,
unless it's a narrow escalator and someone in a hurry is behind me.
490. I save any 1965 quarters I get (the first year of the current copper-nickel
composition), for use at special places or events.
Well, 800 is a good job. He sure beat John Hodgman's 700. But why stop there? Let's go for the gold. I'm putting $10 bucks up (via paypal -- I know they suck, sorry) to whoever posts the best John Ricci style fact about yourself. This contest will be open until I get 200, and then I'll pick the winner...all by myself.
Here's some rules:
1. As many guesses per person as anyone wants
2. Bonus points if you provide a link that shows someone else was cheating
3. I get to pick the winner and no one gets to whine. If I pick my best friend just because he had the best entry, so be it. I'm going to pick what I think is the best, no matter whose it is.
I'll pick out some more of my favorite from the real list as I work through the whole list.
Found two gems, right in a row.
387. On April 1, I stay alert for joke activity.
388. For a time in the 70's, I was quite obsessed with the Mr. Ed TV show.
