AFter 5 years of being in this business...it's the one thing that I hate. Everyone who has ever gotten screwed by a lender carries a chip on their shoulder the next time they deal with one. It is by far one of my pet peeves.
 
Umm.... I'm fairly new here, and it took me some time to think about a thing or two... :roll:

1 - I am a french speaking canadian.
2 - I have two guitars, but can barely play anything at all.
3 - Had my first tank over 30 years ago. FW (40 gal.) with about 40 swordtail fishes.
4 - I can rambled on and on when someone ask for explanations, about anything. With me, you always get the longest version. (Been told MANY times!)
5 - My last parachute jump was at 10,000 ft. (6 years ago)
6 - I use to roller blade for hours. One day I did over 70 KM in one afternoon.
7 - I love astronomy but my telescope in still under construction.
8 - I've been to Siberia 3 times since 1999.
9 - My wife is Russian.
10 - We both are of the same hight and have the same birthday.
11 - Umm... Better stop now. 8O

Well, if you want to know some more, just ask. But keep in mind item 4 above. :twisted:
 
10. I am a natural red-head
9. I inject medication into people's varicose and spider veins to make them disappear and I love my job. Some people say I'm twisted because of that... :twisted:
8. My biggest pet peeve is people who whine and complain, yet do nothing about what bothers them... I'm a very optimistic person and it really brings me down :(
7. I love to learn stuff. Does that make me a nerd?
6. I was adopted as a baby and met both sides of my birth family a few years ago. My personality is so much like my birth Dad that it's weird! Gives credence to the 'nature' side of the 'nature vs. nurture' argument.
5. My paternal birth grandmother was an identical twin. She died before I could meet her, but I met her sister, so in fact, I kinda met my birth grandma. (I swear I should be on Montel)
4. I have a horrible memory and it frequently embarrasses me
3. My husband has an awesome body - he takes good care of himself
2. I am horrible at returning calls
1. My car is a complete mess.

Did you see the History Channel show about Siberia about a month ago? It was fascinating! What part of Siberia did you go to? Is your wife from there?

What's the story behind the guitar (15 words or less).

As a teen, mother had me take music lessons. Only real tune I could play was "House of the rising sun". Then life got in the way and stoped playing. Later in life, bought an acoustic guitar for 10 bucks.

That's the short version.

:wave:

No, did not see it because I am not subscribed to that channel. Siberia is fascinating indeed. Quite different from north america. 8O

The place I went to is called Irkutsk, near lake Baikal. Going again in May to visit the in-laws. That's my wife's native town.

Well, it was a little over 15 words but I commend you for keeping it short and informative. House of the Rising Sun huh? That's good!
 
Well, in my time, over 30 years ago, that was a "classic" to learn playing amongst my then circle of friends. You know, a teenager thing. 8) Man, do things have ever changed now! 8O

I bet your inlaws have some interesting stories about how Russia has changed in the past 20 years. What do they think about communism vs. capitalism? I've been reading a book about communism because I really don't know too much about it, but the history of how communism came about is absolutely fascinating!!
