Have you secured a supply of holy objects enchanted by [belief or lack of belief of your choice]? You may need them to fend off the locals.

No need. I've got an eccentric personality to do it for me.

Dear phone interview guy who just called me: if you're going to talk so fast that I can barely understand the words coming out of your mouth, don't get all offended and indignant when I ask you to slow down and repeat yourself. Also, asking me the same question three times in ten minutes isn't going to make me change my answer.

I hate it when they do the question thing! They hate it when, on the second time they ask, I spend five minutes dissecting the wording of both times they asked it, suggesting potential alternative meanings, and finally just repeating my first answer.

So it turns out my brain is full of random stupid facts. Just won quiz night at the local Pub. The winning question worth 25 Points in the History category
"What is the name of the first european immigrant born on North American soil"
"Damn I read this years ago in newfoundland... His name was Snorri"
"Correct the earliest known immigrant was a boy child named Snorri born to a viking family around the year 1046 AD in L'Anse aux Meadows Newfoundland"
I'm not smart at all, just random crap ends up in my head.

Nice, well done for keeping up the British tradition of pub quizzes. [and with that skill if you are ever in Yorkshire for my monthly Geek pub quiz ;) ]

Only 25 points? That surely should have been a 100 pointer.
Still very impressive, did jaws hit the ground when you answered?

Not to mention that probably requires being engaged to you...

Actually asking the same question (sometimes exactly the same, sometimes disuguised) is often deliberate. They might be checking if you are telling the same story every time and might compare the notes from the previous questioning.

And engaged to you, yes?

boy is asleep, finally
usually I aing him "wasted years" and "molly malone" and he falls asleep,
sometimes I have to add "me and bobby mc gee"
sometimes even " here comes that rainbow again"
today I had to add "silver stallion"
I hope he sleeps well and long. And, it sounds like he just wants more ;)

Hands purple after digging through 9 feet of snow. Had the genius idea of visiting Coyhaique (in southern Chile) just in time for the blizzard season.
On the bright side, the guys helping me dig out the car invited me to an asado (like a BBQ, but with basically 100% of the animal on the grill) to celebrate the, uhh... well, to celebrate us digging out of the snow, I guess.
People around here make asados to celebrate just about anything from someone getting married to the laundry being ready.

No. You're off by 12 years and someone way more manly than Anthony Edwards.
