- I know all the words to The Philosopher's Song from Monty Python.
- I can play the piano.
- I wish I were a lawyer.
- My tongue is really short, but it hasn't slowed me down.
- I am a contradiction - I hate girly stuff, but I like to have my nails done.
- I am a Democrat, only because I don't think I'd accomplish much registered as a member of the Green party or a Socialist.
- Yesterday I cleaned up enough dog hair to make a sweater.
- I honestly believe that reading is fundamental.
Go ahead, I dare you, post 8 random things about yourself.

Eight Things:
1) I have been arrested 3 times for civil disobedience
2) Pocahontas was my gggggggg great grandmother
3) I love baseball
4) I am an Eagle Scout
5) I was a national Co-Chair of the Green Party of the United States
6) I live in the woods, do't have a blade of grass on my property
7) I am an elected official - Mecklenburg County Soil and Water Conservation Supervisor
8) I teach Sunday School
1. What were you civilly disobeying? (I've never been arrested - yet.)
2. Are you sure?
3. I love b-ball too.
4. Congratulations - that's a lot of hard work.
5. Are you not co-chair of the Greens anymore? Are you still a Green? I'm tempted to register that way. Seriously.
6. Woods are the best place to live because you don't have to cut any grass.
7. Cool! You must be going crazy with the drought right now. Get those Meckies to stop watering their plush lawns. And golf courses.
8. Where do you teach Sunday School?
Do you have your own blog? You're cool.
1) once in DC at a World Bank protest, once at a School of the Americas protest and once at a Savannah River nuke site protest. Might just get #4 at the School of the Americas protest next month.
2) yep
3) minor league ball is my fav.
4) thanks, I erased Ronald Reagan's signature of my certficate
5) served my time as chair. Unfortunatly you can not register Green in North Carolina, not a recognized party. NC has the second toughest ballot access laws in US. You can join the state party though.
6) plus I can pee off my back deck and nobody can see me.
7) my creek is almost dried up and I am worried about my well
8) St. Martins Episcopal Church
no, no blog. I am an engineer, not much of a writer. Now if you want a road designed, I am your man.
Thanks on the cool comment. Been reading your posts, pretty chilly yourself.
I don't need any roads designed. I'm all for keeping the roads we've got in good shape and not building any more.
1. I am very competitive but like to keep games close.
2. I'm lousy at playing the guitar, but I'll do it anyway.
3. I have over 90 dictionaries in my collection
4. My favorite sports are of the leisure variety: bocce, croquet, bags, etc.
5. None of my clients has figured out that I'm a blogger.
6. I'm not as far to the left politically as people assume I am.
7. I hate to shave.
8. I'd rather wing it than be prepared.
Now my questions and comments on your eight:
1)great song. I personally think Life of Brian was their best film
2)playing the piano is pretty cool, any particular genre you specialize in?
3)Would you be an attorney or a lawyer? I believe you mentioned there is a difference.
4)interesting!?!?
5)good grooming shows class
6)Most Dems around here are too conservative for me but without ballot access, the Greens and Socialists don't stand much of a chance. What is it about Dems that turns you off?
7)ewwwww dog hair sweater ewwwww
8)I don't read nearly enough. What are you reading now?
Greeninnc:
1)My favorite Python film is probably Holy Grail, but that's only because it's the most recent one I've watched.
2)I can play almost anything - but I specialize in ragtime. Scott Joplin, baby. It's fun - and most people play it way too fast.
3)I would be a lawyer, and yes, there is a difference.
4)My tongue was all the way attached to the bottom of my mouth when I was born, so they had to clip that little piece of skin so that I could eat and talk. It hasn't slowed me down in either activity.
5)Good grooming may show class, but I do it to keep myself from chewing my fingernails to the quick.
6)I am an officer in my local party, so I shouldn't say too many bad things about the Dems, but mostly they're too afraid of offending people. But maybe I offend people too much. I'm trying to pull them to the left. I don't know if it's working.
7)yeah, dog sweaters are gross. But the dogs are cool, and they like to walk in the woods behind the house.
8)I'm reading a mystery called Grave Surprise by Charlaine Harris right now. It's pretty light stuff.
But I like it.
Gordon:
I can't believe none of your clients have figured out your a blogger.
If I were a boy, I'd hate to shave, too. In fact, I hate to shave the parts of me I feel compelled to shave.
I play a little guitar. It's very small - only about 8 inches tall. HAHA! No - I used to play, but I don't anymore.
Are all of your dictionaries in English? Do you have Thesauri as well? (or is it Thesauruses?)
If you like to wing it so much, why do you have so many dictionaries? Seems like a contradiction.
Sorry :)
