So tell us, Org member, tell us 3 things about yourself that other Org members generally don't know about you. It can be anything, no matter how small or silly, just please don't say things like "I'm a human," or "I listen to Prince." We can gather that on our own! I'll start:
1) I own my own business
2) I graduated from a military college
3) I am a big fan of the Cocks (Univ. of SC Gamecocks, that is)

So, come on, give us a little peek into your world!

What kinda business?



1. My mom makes me want to slit my wrists.
2. I know how to play the cymbols.
3. I can imitate animal sounds to perfection that you wouldn't know it was a person doing it.

What animals?


1. I live and grew up in Pendle witch country.
2. My favourite pudding is Eton Mess
3. I was recently published in a book & also designed the cover for good measure.

I am an environmental consultant, more specifically, a natural resources consultant. Our main services are delineating, or determining, the boundaries of wetlands, and obtaining state and federal permits for impacting wetlands and streams for development. We provide other services too, like protected species assessments and a few other things. Times are kinda tough right now with development in the crapper.

What is Eton Mess?

erik319 said:

Gorillas
Monkeys
Dolphins
Horse (which is like a really hard one )
Goats

And I do a fire whistle like nobodys business too!


What kinda book?

1. my eyes are so bad, that even with corrective lenses, I don't have 20/20 vision...

2. I have an uncontrollable fear of windows at night...curtains have to be pulled or shades have to be closed on windows after dark or I'm very uncomfortable and nervous...
this all stems from a dream I had as a lil' boy

3. I'm way more laid back and soft spoken than my posts may suggest...I have no problems speaking my mind or voicing my opinion, even IRL, but for the most part I just go with the flow and only say something when I want to, never because I feel I need to...it takes a lot for me to actually give a fuck...

The easiest desert ever, and the tastiest in my opinion. The story goes that some students from Eton were taking a pavlova to one of their teachers and dropped it on the way. When it arrived, it was a smashed up mess... And the Eton Mess was born.

Here's a recipe that's a bit arty farty for my liking. All you really need is cream, meringue (smashed into decent chunks, not too fine) and strawberries. Puree a few and pour over the top. The cream and the strawberries balance out the sweetness of the meringue and the whole thing is just amazing.

OOOH! That sounds good! I'm a big fan of strawberries, so I will definitely have to try this one!

TotalANXiousNESS said:

I Don't even know what noise gorillas make! Wow, that's a tallent there. It's an odd one, but a talent no less!

The book is a sci fi anthology. I do it for the love, not the money but it's nice to see something that you've helped to create in the shops.

thejason said:

Wow

You'd be very uncomfortable in my home then. I have zero windows that can be covered up 100% ... I guess i could tack up sheets over them or something

Poiple said:

You should, you can't go wrong. Oh, and it helps if you put it in the fridge after making for about half an hour before serving.

You can make it with any berries, but strawberries are the classic. The fruit need a bit of a bite for me, can't be too sweet or it;s too much. I'm tempted to have a go at making one with rhubarb or mango. hmm...

1. I used to collect penguins and have thousand of different materials at my apartment
2. I have psoriasis and nearly died of it as a baby. Today you can hardly see it anymore if I take good care of my skin
3. I get travelsick extremely easily

Serious said:

I didn't know you can die from psoriasis! My wife has it, albeit a very mild case.

Poiple said:

You cannot really die of it as far as I know, but I was just a few weeks old and refused to drink and I think I also got some other infections when I was treated in hospital for my psoriasis. It is very unusual that you have it at such a young age.

Serious said:

Yeah, it's the first time I'm hearing such thing. People usually have it when they are older, often as a consequence of emotional stress, tension etc. It's well known that the skin is very sensitive and tends to show how we feel inside.

Aelis said:

That's true. But I guess I am the exception to the rule . Apart from one time in my life it never got worse when I went through emotional stress. I lost loads of my hair and some weight because of emotional stress before, but my skin is usually not affected at all . It's strange. And it is also unusual that I am the only one in my family who has it. Usually more than one family member is affected.

i used to do concert music reviews for a local newspaper (back in the day)
i'd love to be in love with prince
i like chocolate liquor over tahitian vanilla gelato (in very small portions)
i think a little less fast these days, but still faster than many (don't tell anyone)

I never smoked a joint until May last year.
Kylie Minogue once sat on my lap.
I am drunk.

I've been racking my brains trying to think of 3 things that no-one here will already know.... this is all I can think of...

1. I can play the theme to ET on the piano, even though I don't technically play piano.

2. I do lots of stuff for my kids school and pre-schools. Up until recently I was chair of my children's pre-school committee.

3. I took singing lessons.

HamsterHuey said:

Please, you've been bragging about that for years.


Here's me:

1. I can do the moonwalk.
2. My voice is naturally very high for a male of my age, but I lower it intentionally.
3. I didn't really read too many books until I was 25.

Poiple said:

He is NOT a Warner Bros. artist.

HamsterHuey said:

Ahhhh, I see. I associate "drunk" with , and "high" with . Take some vitamin C, it's supposed to intensify it.

Wow.... I can't think of anything. I put all my stuff out there.

There's gotta be something...

1. My birthmark is on my neck and looks like a hickey
2. My birthday is the longest day of the year
3. I produce music
