Colleen - You had me fooled too! I had a friend in college named August. He was a huge, burly guy from Canada - basketball player - bad temper - wonderful laugh and twinkling eyes! So there's an alter ego for you.... TJ

I like the "huge, burly" part....also the basketball player alter ego....At 4'11" that's always been my goal....to be TALL! I do pride myself on being quick to laugh, and I am enjoying having inadvertantly provided you with a chuckle.

I like to laugh as well and especially at myself. But lately my friend Mark (MD50 or 20/20)has been cracking me up with such admissions that he likes to play Doctor, doesn't get kissed and will be wearing a T-back bikini in an upcoming photo shoot.

Mark, my teacher, you are just so smoove, I have so much to learn... :p

Mark,

To quote a line I used earlier this week "you had me fooled"

David,

I can't speak for Mark, but I don't need medicine to feel this way....it just comes naturally.

I hope I didn't offfend, just having some fun.
