I've had a super-productive morning, so it's time enculer le chien.
[good luck with your online translators with that one...]

Incredibly fascinating things about [livejournal.com profile] jawnbc. Really.

1. I am the 4th of 4 kids, born in 3.75 years, to a woman with only 1 ovary (only six ovulations a year).
2. I was a great student until aged 11, then an increasingly mediocre one. Even in university and grad skool...until I started my PhD
3. I didn't really speak or understand French until I was 34 years old (and I'm losing it now; faut retourner au Canada)
4. I've been circumcized twice; this was not planned
5. My brother shot me. In the head. When I was 4 and he was 7
6. I didn't have a non-relative friend until I was 27
7. There are entire periods of my 20s for which I cannot account
8. With the exception of Iceland I've been to every single place on earth I've ever dreamed of
9. I will not go to zoos, or even many "animal rescues"; I don't think a kid in Brooklyn has any right to expect to see a lion up close. Ditto aquariums
10. I eat about 1kg of raw carrots a week; I used to eat a similar amount of raw potatoes, but got tired of washing and peeling the damned things
11. Of the 3 major gay metropolises of the world, only Amsterdam's ever turned my crank. I have friends in SF and met the love of my life in Sydney, but neither is a good fit for me
12. I helped change Canadian immigraton to allow same-sex partner sponsorship in the early 90s. Good thing too!
13. Generally I find bear runs rather high schoolish with their A-bear and "who's cool" silliness.
14. I did pron, but for myself (and by myself, for the record)
15. I can accept all sorts of people, but 3 things are fatal flaws: nastiness, inconsideration (sustained), and one-sidedness
16. I have one regret in life (relatively minor): not going to the Ivy League school to which I was accepted
17. I didn't eat a mushroom until I was 17 and my high school girlfriend's parents ordered mushroom pizza. I resented Ma for that for years
18. My 3rd day on the job @ McDo I deep fried my right hand, trying to skim a dead fly out of the apple pie fryer. I'd like to apologize to anyone who ate a pie that day...
19. When I was backpacking in Europe (aged 22) I almost single-handedly beat 5 Australian guys in a beer chugging contest. They were so impressed they bought me shots of ouzo. Apparently I was trying to explain to my mates how to make egg salad en français (see #3)
20. The first time the Catholic sacraments of confession and communion were presented to me I thought "people don't really believe this crap, do they?" I was 8
