Random Wednesday
Comment here and I will…
1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with a song/movie.
3. Tell a random fact about you.
4. Tell my first memory of you.
5. Associate you with an animal/fruit.
6. Ask something I’ve always wanted to know about you.
In return, you MUST spread this disease in your LJ.

I suppose I’m asking for it…
Let’s see:
1. That’s easy, you got me on LJ
2. (don’t ask why) Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure
3. You had an entire Lego city under your bed at one point
4. A friend of Johns, it gets a little fuzzy. Grade 7 though I think
5. A Squirrel would be too easy, so I would say cat
6. Why Squirrels?
Because I’m horrible at coming up with names.
I should put up a “what’s the deal with the flying squirrel?” page at some point…
What happened was this… when Yvon put up his BBS, he got me to join. I filled out his little registration form and of course, when it asked for a handle, I just put in my name. Because it’s my name.
He wanted his BBS to be 31337 (this is before they dropped the 3), and that just wouldn’t do. So he made me pick a name. And… I don’t know… the first thing that came into my head was a squirrel. But while squirrels are kind of cool, that’s not a very good handle. If squirrels were cool, though, flying squirrels were that much cooler. All dynamic and stuff. So I just went with it.
And I just kept it. I used to try to come up with new names, but they always ended up being horribly pretentious. “The flying squirrel” is nicely unassuming and not pretentious at all.
Oh ok… although I dread put it up on my LJ….
Booyaka?
Alrighty!

6. What is it that you do for a living anyway?
1: 😛 to you too. 🙂
2: that’s very sweet somehow.
4: I don’t know if it was xmass it might have been an easter, but it was at Second, I was meeting so many people that trip it’s very very blurry.
5: it’s the opposable thumbs isn’t it?
6: well other then the time we went to the movies at the same time he sat behind me but we never actually talked to each other when I was about 17…. JB set us up, a couple of times actually before it stuck.
The first time JB was in town calls me up for a pint I run out to meet him, he says “Hey, this is my friend B who just moved into Town hey look at the time I gotta go…” leaving B and I looking at each other thinking ‘well that was tacky!’ We talked wandered around, I gavve him my number he never called me. Eh
The second time I went off to visit JB in England (nearly a year later), I arrive at his house and B opens the door, JB hadn’t told me who is new room-mate was, he hadn’t told his room-mate who the house guest was…. JB spent a lot of time leaving us alone. I had made a crack about him being too skinny early on in the trip so he thought I wasn’t interested, he never called me so I thought he wasn’t.
The third time (several months later) JB tried to set us up he gave up any sort of subtlety and it kinda stuck that time. Still took months though. JB is a stubborn son of a bitch.
