[SennaVille]

Since we're in GP hiatus (and I'm female and nosy), let's get to know each other better! List ten things that are interesting about you. Just to be kind, I'll go first:

1. If I didn't pluck/wax my eyebrows on a very regular basis, I would look like Spock. My eyebrows are very well-behaved until a certain point, then they are just plain upward sweep craaaazy!!!

2. I once had a pet monkey named Mischief, he was very mischievious.

3. I look after children for a living. When I walk into a room they all shout my name. I'm doing it right.

4. I've lived in three continents (Africa, America, Europe).

5. My sister and brother are my best friends.

6. The Walking Dead is my new best show

7. I love astronomy.

8. I read a lot

9. My first pet (a goldfish) was named Niki Lauda

10. I can juggle

[What's Burning?]

Since I can't let SennaVille stand on stage and look silly by herself...

1) I've lived under 3 forms of government, communism, fascism and democracy (otherwise knows as good ol' capitalism)

2) I have a river in my back yard on which I go canoeing in.

3) I've seen over 60 different species of birds on my property.

4) I don't belong to any social networking services.

5) I can "fix" just about anything.

6) I draw well and made extra money in High School painting album covers on the backs of denim jackets, I didn't listen to any of the bands whose album covers I painted.

7) I've been to 26 out of the 50 states in America.

8 ) I can point out at least 6 or 7 constellations during any season in my night sky.

9) I have extremely good hearing and can pick out a lot of celebrity voice over work in commercials, but I'm horrible with faces and names.

10) I didn't learn to speak English until the age of 10, I'm a native Spanish speaker.

Self fulfilling prophecy... someone QUICK post your ten list so we can backpedal away from this topic.

[myownalias]

1. I met my wife through mySpace.
2. I once engineered live sound for the Ordinary Boys before they became famous.
3. I once ran onto the dance floor in a nightclub; slipped and slid across the dance floor, knocking people over 10 pin bowling style.
4. I have a pet Guinea pig call Majel, named after Majel Barrett (the wife of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry).
5. I have had several photo's of live bands published in local (Plymouth, UK) newspapers and magazines.
6. I have two children, one biological daughter (17 mths) and one step-son (6 yrs); although I consider him to be my son as his father is nothing more than a sperm donor.
7. I am slowly converting my wife to Englishness in preparation for our planned relocation to the UK sometime in the future.
8. I played football, cricket, baseball, basketball and hockey at school, I wasn't any good at any of those sports, so I took up computers.
9. I currently drive a 2006 Saturn Vue 3.5L V6 and a 2000 2.2L 2dr Chevrolet Cavalier.
10. My first ever car was a beige 1983 (I believe) 1.3L Ford Fiesta Mk1 Ghia.

[bud]

1) I've lived under 3 forms of government, communism, fascism and democracy (otherwise knows as good ol' capitalism)

All under the Bush administration?

[Hammer278]

Wow...interesting, especially WBs and myownalias'.

1) I love my life in my country though I'm no where close to being a patriot.
2) Completed a mechanical engineering degree though never practiced it in industry since graduation
3) I'm one of the few who don't believe in marriage/family life and my best buds (guys and girls) turn out to have the same mentality
4) This Sunday is my last working day at my current company and I'd be starting my dream job on the 3rd of May
5) I consider myself naturally talented in racket sports (badminton/tennis/squash/table tennis), played for my high school in SEASAC tennis after 2 years of training from scratch. At the same time, I played football for years and never managed to get respectable with it.
6) Currently working on a new project: achieving a 6pack. Started my project in January when I weighed 81kgs, today I'm 68.
7) One of my best dreams (I have very detailed dreams) is racing on Magny Cours for McLaren with Coulthard retired, and the team cheering me on to victory as I was leading. The dream cut short just before I reached the finish line.
8 ) I enjoy a good discussion about anything at all with my mates over a dinner...anyday, rather than hitting a club which I consider a complete waste of time and money
9) I drive a 15 year old BMW E34 520i and love it to bits. This is my second car, 1st being a Proton Perdana V6 which was stolen after just 6 months of purchase.
10) I can't believe I just wrote these 10 points on a public forum but hey, I consider strangers as friends not yet introduced to me.

[FRAFPDD]

1) Im a 5 year veteran of the guitar, probably the best thing ive ever done
2) I have a mild case of OCD
3) I have a stupily unreachable moral standard for people that i dont even live up to myself. But im closer then most.
4) Ive been given full control of an RAF plane at only 15 years old!
5) I get a gag-reflex for alchohol after only one beer, but i perservere, shots etc dont make me do anything, just beer.....
6) I buy lottery tickets every week, in the vain hope that if i win i can buy into Formula Renault etc and work my way up to F1, cause i am still young enough!!!!
7) To tie in with the above, i genuinely believe given a fair few laps in feeder cars and some more in an F1 car, that i could become competitive in it
I have 10 cousins to 4 aunts/uncles, half of which are american.
9) Firm believer that the national temperament here in the UK is solely reliant on what the weathers like, mostly cloudy/rainy, mostly s*** moods !
10) Jobless.

[zurich_allan]

Ok, mine will be a mixture of fun, interesting and depressing....

1. This http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-12977787 is my cousin, and she's a complete idiot.

2. My other cousin (her sister) died of an induced heroin overdose in 1998 a few weeks before my 18th birthday when she was 22 (not 21 as reported here) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/148233.stm.

3. Another of my cousin's (on the other side of my family) is 14, and is suffering from anorexia, hasn't eaten any solid food since January... we're very worried about her...

4. I've had a total of four breaks to the same leg over the course of the last 21 years... my most recent series of breaks last November resulted in a nice array of titanium that will now be permanently embedded in my bones! Will be fun going through airport security!!

5. My wife was briefly my brother's girlfriend, though I knew her first...

6. I've met the Queen and Prince Charles, and my mother has an MBE.

7. I love my job as a university lecturer and professional researcher.

8. I've been on BBC radio 5 live with Gabby Logan (formerly Gabby Yorath).

9. I have a pet... he's a soft toy dog called Mash... and he's real to me!

10. People who spell 'lose' as 'loose' really make myblood boil... I don't care when people make a typo, or have general bad grammar, but 'loose' makes my urge to kill rise...

[acosmichippo]

1. I collect basketball shoes. I have about 20 pairs in my closet barely or never-used.
2. I am a freak for the summer olympics. Ever since 1996 I watch as much as I can of each one (I had a major crush on Dominique Moceanu).
3. My cousin Morten Adamsen actually was part of the Norwegian Olympic team in 2004. He competed in Double sculls, and ranked 7th.
4. The last concert I went to was Nicole Atkins (I have a current major crush on her).
5. I'm a huge Star Trek Fan. I'm currently rewatching Voyager.
6. The greatest movie of all time is The Big Lebowski.
7. Been playing guitar for about 12 years. Originally went to college as a Jazz Performance major, but switched to mathematics and Computer Science.
8. After 4 years of working in Geek Squad, I recently quit to start up a street-food Taco Cart with my friend. We hope to be up-and-running in about 6 weeks.
9. I still buy CDs. I have about 600 and I love them.
10. In high school, I had a tumor removed from my right Talus (ankle bone). It deformed the joint a bit, so I can't put heavy, repeated stress on it.
