Somebody ask me something and I will likely answer. After all, couldn't be rougher than my little "Ask Me Anything" event last year.

What happened?  :question:

Ha, I told people I knew to "Ask Me Anything" and they shore did....

Do you usually put your left shoe on before your right?

What is one fact about you that would surprise other people if they knew?


Something that those who don't know me closely may not guess is that I have lived a lot of my life afraid of someone.

That person who scares you: I have a cricket bat with their name on it.  :hatred:

There's a lot of things I keep secret about myself and some people would be surprised if they knew.

1. I am an abuse survivor: people who know me well and have kids will quite happily let me look after their kids as they know no harm will come to them as I won't allow it.
2. I lived through a war https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodesian_Bush_War which messed me up mentally.
3. Most adults find me very scary: I have been told I have a madness in my eyes at times but kids like me for some weird reason and they don't find me scary at all.
4. Some people think I am either homophobic, racist or both: I am neither.
5. I am the son of a former criminal turned cop and a radical feminist.

when i was very young, i stuttered, and had a severe lisp. i took speech classes for 3 years, but it( the stutter)  still shows up when i'm under severe stress. the lisp came back when my wisdom teeth grew out of the roof of my mouth, but i can work around it, mostly.
don't EVEN...EVER!

What movie do you wish you could forget watching so you could enjoy watching it again as if it were the first time?

I'd go with the first Saw movie.

I am my own god

David Millin ASC's landmark war film Shangani Patrol (1970): I would like to watch it as for the first time I screened it publicly with 120 people in the cinema in 1999. Mom was in the audience and Dad was with me in the projection booth  :smile:

Here's the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8T5pcpzY6mE

Most of the movies I love are because I have looked at them numerous times.  I watched THE LAST EMPEROR (1987) last night and immediately thought of it with your question... in a way, the fun of discovering a movie I love is seldom and one of life's great joys.  If I forgot THE LAST EMPEROR and discovered it anew last night that would've been wonderful.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? (Not like x-ray vision, something doable.)

I think I'd like to have artistic talent. Or to be better at sleeping.
