My right knee is almost ready to need replacing. While bent it's perfectly fine but I can't lock it out straight with my weight on it for fear of it snapping. It's been this way for over a year now and doesn't show any signs of healing. I suppose I should stop using it to absorb crash impacts.

Did you ever see them live?


I was here;
http://www.metallica.com/tour/nov-16-1997-stockholm.asp


It was great.
They only allowed ~200 people to get in and the tickets were free.
I remember getting there at 6:30am to be sure I wouldn't miss it.
They didn't open the doors until around 2pm and I was really fatigued by then
standing in that damn line all day.

The following day a newspaper had the headline 'Metallica plays secret gig for fans'.
Apparently there were one or two thousand people outside being denied entrance. :lol:

I was real happy to get in and I still have the ticket saved.

No, I haven't. Mainly because I'm cheap and partly because while we get some tours through Fargo, most go through Minneapolis and I'm not driving 4 hours home after a concert. :)
 
1. I competely skipped a Spanish mid term when I was in high school for simple fact I didn't feel like taking it.
2. I rebuilt a Chevy 350 is a span of 6 hours including dissasembly.
3. I hate my daily driver with a blazing passion.
4. I'm a secret Pontiac fanboy.
5. I get incredibly baby-like when I'm sick. Pamper me, bitch.

I lost it at this line. :lol:
1. I swim exceptionally well underwater. But as soon as I get above water something strange happens and I forget how to float.
2. I'm currently trying to take as many college classes at my high school because I know my life savings won't be enough for the rising prices of college tuition.

1. I always feel worthless and threatened when somebody learns faster than I do at something I like.
2. Despite my sheer hatred for the Fat Giraffe (Charizard). I find his Y Mega Evolution to be very amazing and is the only reason why I have a Charizard.
3. I find Charizards X Mega evolution to be overhyped as hell and I feel was only made for fan service. The only changes is that it is a different colour and more spikes.
4. I hate when the 100% reason for including something, was for fan service.
5. I fail most writing tasks, as I poorly write English.
 
I don't think I've ever done this so here goes:

I would pay money to see you in Australia. :lol:

Note: I will not pay for you to fly to Australia to then see you in Australia.
 
Thought I'd give this a go. Sorry if it's a bit long.

1: I went to drama school for a year when I was 11. I was going to play the leading role as well, but I had a panic attack after I messed up a line in a dress rehearsal. I still ended up being in the play, but with a significantly smaller role with no dialogue. That also lead to somebody having to play three different characters at the same time.
2: I've been told I look like James May, Jonathan Ross and most recently, Alan Partridge. That last one is bad as I've been told I also talk like him.
3: I've got a grey streak in my hair and I'm only 17. This worries me.
4: I absolutely despise the film Avatar by James Cameron. When I first saw it, I walked out about half an hour in and spend the rest of my time playing Sega Rally 2 at the cinema arcade.
5: My dad used to be the manager of the band The Human League at their peak. He doesn't speak very highly of it, as the band didn't really do much after their initial success. He even said that he had to convince Philip Oakey to work with Giorgio Moroder, as Philip wasn't sure about working with the producer. That sounds absolutely ridiculous to me, as it's Giorgio Moroder! What could possibly go wrong?

Can I count that last fact as 'about me'...?

I can save you and everyone else the trouble right now and tell you I'd be a bitch. Not even an ounce of shame. I'd be a bitch and I'm perfectly okay with that. :lol:

Same. I hate all insects.

See? We're okay again, you and I.

Let me guess, it is because of World 8-3, a.k.a "Hammer Bro. Marathon"

Nothing in particular, I just never beat it for some reason. I seriously have to fix that.

How am I not going to finish the first console game I owned?
 
1) I probably have a mild form of OCD.
2) I hate insects.
3) Apparently when I was 3 (or something), I was able to name most of the NASCAR drivers, sponsors, and numbers of the time.
4) I broke both of my wrists in one fall.
5) I don't drink milk (I know, I know, get over it already).
