After a flurry of private messages between myself and longtime ajb buddy Dan Same, I can confirm that despite his liking Freddie Mercury, Abba, Dusty Springfield, the film Mamma Mia* (twice) and Madonna's more anaemic, less voluptuous era, we are not to infer he is gay.
Sorry Dan, but I am outing you on this board as a heterosexual.
EDIT: *DS has informed me via pm that in fact he loved the stage show of Mamma Mia, but only merely liked the film, and would I change it? -{
Having read M5's account of himself, I feel I have led a sheltered life...
So you've never been chased into high school by a zebra? (And no, I didn't go to school in the Serengeti, but right here in north Ayrshire).
I've also witnessed two aircraft crashes:
- An RAF Phantom FGR2, ditching off the coast of RAF Leuchars in Fife after striking the runway with no landing gear (pilots ejected)
- A BAe Jetstream 32, overturning and hitting the runway shortly after take off on a test flight from nearby Prestwick, where they were built, after a simulated engine shutdown. Unfortunately, both crew didn't survive.
I've been studiying martial arts since the early 90's, and there is a small part of me that wants someone to try and mug me so that i can beat the living snot out of them
]Me too. For one thing I've never gotten drunk. ;%
Speaking as somebody whose last night out ended in memory loss, a considerable amount of vomit, and waking up next to a frozen pizza, can I just say . But to be honest I haven't had a drink since then, and I feel better for it. I might just remain on the wagon.

The last time I was in a true physical confrontation was in 1982, in Zaragoza, Spain. A friend and I were walking across a street in the Plaza de Aragon, when four Spanish guys approached from the other side...
Now, mind you, we weren't in uniform, because at the time it was against regulation to wear our uniforms outside the base: Tensions resulting from the debate over whether Spain should join NATO at the time* had led to a rather pervasive anti-U.S. sentiment (which I'm sure sadly persists in many places over there this day). In addition, there was a natural tension between American and Spanish men, because the Yanks had a reputation (deservedly so) for depleting the pool of available ladies in the downtown nightlife scene ;%
However, despite our not being in uniform, we were always easily spotted as Yanquis---both because of our military haircuts, and our noticeably taller average height ) ---and thus we frequently drew the ire of pockets of resentful young Spanish men. On this particular day, we'd heard it many times. We had become like saturated towels which can absorb no more---so, when the fellow in the lead passed by me and told me, in no uncertain terms, that he'd had sex with my mother, who was an American w***e...
Well, without thinking, or a moment's hesitation, I hit him in the face. Hard. He went down in the middle of the street. My friend pushed another one of them into a car that was stopped for a red light...and we ran, as fast as we could, scared out of our wits. Amazingly, they didn't chase us. Back in our apartment, my friend Pete told me that the guy I'd hit was bleeding from the mouth. My knuckles were cut up a bit, probably from the guy's teeth, and my fingers didn't work quite right for a couple of days.
We were never caught, which is a good thing. The Guardia Civil might have worn silly hats, but they also carried automatic weapons and had no sense of humour whatsoever. Looking back, from the perspective of middle age...I'm still glad I hit the guy. Doesn't reflect particularly well on me, I know, but there we are.
Glad I got that off my chest.
* On two occasions, when living downtown, I had to walk well out of my way to get home because of American flag burnings. Perhaps my favourite picture from those days is of me standing next to a poster (ubiquitous at the time) depicting a King Kong-like gorilla, wearing a red white and blue 'Uncle Sam' hat, clutching a nuclear missile in each hand. The caption, translated, read: "No NATO, no U.S. Bases in Spain, Yankees go home!"

Well, I was going to post this before Loeff's confession, as it seems everyone seems to harbour violent feelings of some kind. Now I won't deny thinking I could hit someone who, naturally, would deserve it (in my view). However, recently in the UK we had the DUMBEST incident imaginable, where a woman phoned her bloke to get him to whack a queue jumper in a supermarket. So her bloke arrives, hits the guy in the face with an open handed haymaker, and the guy dies. And do you know what? It turns out to be the wrong guy anyway!
So there you go. You can punch someone, and it won't be like the movies. You may kill them, they may be the wrong guy, you'll be in jail.

I'm not a violent person---quite the opposite, actually---but from time to time I've known and encountered people for whom a bit of fisticuffs on a drunken Friday or Saturday night is a viable low-budget entertainment option ?:) As a slightly bigger than average guy (6'4", about 240 lbs), I've had such people---usually wiry-small, intensely drunk and inexplicably angry at the world---try to goad me into such entertainment...without success. It's one of many reasons I don't go into taverns much these days...
I've always been convinced that I've used up all of my luck in this area, from that one stupid incident---and you're absolutely right, NP. I'm sure that the next time I strike anyone, they'll fall and hit their head, or have an aneurysm or a heart attack and die, and I'll be put away for keeps, and for what? A stupid bit of macho posturing? |) No thanks...

I've been to the hospital numerous times, unfortunately. Matter of fact I had surgery only this afternoon for a nasty sinus infection that was killing me during the holidays. There's stitches in my right gum at present.
I have a burning jealousy of anyone who witnessed the golden age of Bond first run.
On a sober note, at 16, my friend drowned while scuba diving and I was dragged by the ear to view his corpse by the Sikinos locals angry that our "group" didn't heed the bad weather warnings.
I've been to jail more then once.
In Germany, I smashed an arcade game viewing screen because I was angry it stole my money. I was arrested by the Polizei. (see above)
In Israel, my friends and I thought holding a glass door in place preventing exit would be funny. The other side broke the door, scattering glass, resutling in a permanent scar on my right eyebrow.
I once ate a winsdhield at 45 MPH and went into shock, picking glass out of my forehead. (a lady in a mini-van pulled in front of me. NOT my fault)
There's other vehicle accidents but I'm not naming them all. I thank God everyday I never hurt myself or especially anyone else. It's sobering looking back at all the idiotic and shameful events of a juvenille who should have known better.
One more that M5 might appreciate. As a youngster, travel from Ankara to Athens would be accomplished via C130 transport. Anyway, I got to visit the cockpit, and I scared the bejesus out of everyone, (myself included), by pulling down on the yoke/stick. Which as any pilot or experienced person such as Loeff or M5 could tell you, is a hard UP!
Speaking as somebody whose last night out ended in memory loss, a considerable amount of vomit, and waking up next to a frozen pizza, can I just say .
I know, ) alot of people are shocked by that. Truth be told, I've gotten tipsy once, and became quite sleepy a a result, but I've never had the desire to go all the way and become drunk. Why? For the reasons you mentioned. :v

EDIT: have just posted one of those to my mate - msn is bleepin like mental lol TRY IT!!!
FelixLeiter007, if you don't mind, I and I'm sure others as well, (NP for sure) would love to hear more about some of your confessions. :v
Here are five more confessions from me:
1)I've never gotten into a proper fight. There were a few times at school I've gotten into scuffles, and one became a little serious, but I've never actually hit someone or been hit (at least not in the face, and not by consent.) I don't regret never being in a proper fight, but I do think that if I were, my self-esteem might have increased.
2)I've been skydiving, I've gone on 100 metre abseils, I've gone RAP jumping and I've walked on enormously high rope courses; yet nothing scares me more than going indoor rock climbing. Even climbing up a 20 metre indoor rock climbing wall scares me more than going skydiving or abseling down huge distances.
3)Alex mentioned 'a burning desire of anyone who witnessed the golden age of Bond first run.' I agree with this, but I'll take it even further. I have a burning desire of anyone who were around during the 60's and 70's; that is anyone who were born in the late 40's to early 50's. The reason is that this era produced most of my favourite films (specifically the 70's), my favourite musical artists, one could take LSD and be considered cool and Vietnam and the peace movement were in full swing.
Don't get me wrong; I'm fully aware of the human cost of some of these things such as drugs and Vietnam, but I do believe that I was placed on this earth at least two decades too late.
4)I can't ride a bike; I've tried learning but have never been successful. There was a Frasier episode in which Frasier and Niles spoke of feeling left out whenever people say comments like 'it's as easy as learning how to ride a bike' and I knew exactly how they felt
5)When I was younger, I used to make provocative comments for the sole purpose of being controversial. I don't do it anymore; when I do make controversial comments now, my goal is not to be controversial. However when I was much younger, I did like to stir the pot a little (well, more than a little. ) Perhaps unsurpisingly, I still had the reputation of being deliberately provocative long past the era when I actually was deliberately controversial. I remember getting into an argument a few years ago with my girlfriend who accused me of doing just that, even though I had ceased to do so many years ago.

So you've never been chased into high school by a zebra? (And no, I didn't go to school in the Serengeti, but right here in north Ayrshire).
How on earth is that possible?

Here's a confession:I've been a comic book fan for most of my life-in fact,I even learned how to read using comics.I've read Dell Comics,DC Comics Marvel Comics,Charlton Comics,Treasure Chest,Archie Comics,Classics Illustrated,even Disney material.
And over the years,I've occasionally enjoyed some of the TV and movie adaptations of some of the most famous comics characters.But I haven't liked all of them, because all too often the people involved with these adaptations have been too cavalier with their source material.
That said,I really enjoyed Batman Begins.At last somebody got it right and put Batman on the screen with a kind of fidelity to the character that had never really appeared in most of the other cinematic variations(other than the animated series).I was certainly looking forward to the sequel,The Dark Knight.Even as it was being made nearly everyone said that it was going to be the greatest Batman movie of all time.Naturally my expectations were high.Still,I didn't expect a masterpiece--just a terrific film.
About halfway through watching The Dark Knight,two things that I never thought would happen took place.I started to glance at my watch and wondered when it would end.And then,worst of all,I started to ask myself,"Why am I not enjoying this?"Please understand-I thought the film was impressive and the effects were spectacular.Most of the actors were good--although Christian Bale's sotto Batman voice was unintentionally hilarious.Overall,I liked Dark Knight,but I didn't love it.It could've benefited from some judicious editing and still told its story.And Bale's Batman voice should've been dubbed by someone else with a naturally deep voice.Additionally, this was a depressing motion picture.I don't think Batman should be the life of the party but I do think his continual brooding is overdone.It's hard to care about a angry vigilante.
By contrast,I also saw Iron Man.I had no big expectations for this at all.I'd read this title during the 1980s and appreciated what Marvel did with the character.But,I figured,even though this was a Marvel production,the Iron Man movie would probably be okay at best.Boy was I wrong.Iron Man was a far more entertaining movie than Dark Knight, and Downey gave a better(more nuanced)performance than Bale.Of the two movies,I found Iron Man much more entertaining(occasionally better acted) and ultimately the superior film--and I say this as a longtime Batman fan.

One more thing:I'd never cursed so much in my life until I got a computer.Epithets I thought I'd never use.now come flying out of my mouth aimed at my PC.
1. I'm almost 21 and I still don't have my license...
2. I DID get into archaeology because of Indiana Jones, even though I know the real thing is nothing like Indy's archaeology
3. since enrolling in my forensics class, I can't help but stare at people's heads to try and figure out if they have a depressed post-bregma (dip in the top of the skull)
4. I only saw QOS once
5. I really, really would like to try out more drugs...just for fun
6. I've never been in a proper fight, and I really want to be at least once
7. I have a crush on my best friend, but I (sort of) never want him to find out...
8. I enjoy the movie NOTTING HILL far more than any human sanely should
After 6 years of doing fantastically at school/college, now, at the end of my final year, my motivation is seriously starting to wane. Coursework is piling up and my attitude remains flippant. I guess I'm entering the rebellious period at the last hurdle! It may be because I'm pretty certain what I want to do after college, but I'm finding the whole 'school/teachers/expectations' thing incredibly claustrophobic right now. I'm going to peruse acting, and I've always been the 'creative' type. Being in the last year, it feels like I'm stuck in a limbo between education, and my future.
