I don't even understand that! I, too, took typing class in high school on those old typewriters, but I am lost on your thought process there. You'll have to explain. And Mark is a "weather nerd" too. He has a lightning hat, which is a visor with lightning bolts sticking up off the sides. And I still married him. I howled at the Ricky Schroeder look-alike comment! More! More! Why stop listing them! This is too fun. Oh, and I was in awe of your coffee machine that you sacrificed for the play. I don't even drink coffee, but I could recognize the special-ness of that machine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30303760.post-1166039085996765732006-12-13T11:44:00.000-08:002006-12-13T11:44:00.000-08:00I forgot about failing to land the Randall's sacke...I forgot about failing to land the Randall's sacker job in high school due to the results of the "personality exam".

Jenn, you're safe and I should be sausage-less this Christmas!<BR/><BR/>Little known fact #7 - Rusty was not the most cleanly boy growing up. For Rusty, Easter eggs (the hard boiled kind) were a keepsake. He also had pet newts that he kept in a bowl in his room. They weren't always the most obedient suckers as they would often escape. Ever elusive, Rusty would have a hard time finding them. By September, his room began to smell like a chicken house with mold issues and we all knew to check the desk drawers for Easter "nostalgia" and under his bed for newt carcass. It's amazing he achieves the proper sanitization standards in his medical practice. For any of his patients out there, keep in mind that I have not seen or smelled eggs or newts around Rusty in years and he never inhaled the fumes to my knowledge.<BR/><BR/>Little Known fact #8 - Growing up, Rusty lived in a world of unorganization and dishevel. If he owned it, at one point or another he lost it or had difficulty finding it amidst his scattered belongings. Which leads me to...<BR/><BR/>Little Known Fact #9 - Rusty had quite a temper growing up. This usually surfaced when I dominated him at backyard sports or when he'd fall victim to a misplaced item (see fact #8). When mom and I heard wall banging coming from upstairs, we knew Rusty was having a "difficult moment" finding his car keys. One good thing that came out of his undergraduate studies at A&M was that he apparently lost this trait in college.<BR/><BR/>Little Known Fact #10 - Back in the early 80's I accidentally hit him over the side of the head with a Louisville Slugger baseball bat. I was threatening to hit him with no intention to actually make contact, but it happened. It truly was a case of misguided eye-hand-to head coordination on my part. This incident apparently shifted his cranial synapses just enough to produce the stellar academic achievement in later years. Kudos to big brother for the "adjustment"!<BR/><BR/>Little Known Fact #11 - Rusty was an avid Dungeons and Dragons weirdo as a kid. You know, one of THOSE. To this day, I'd bet he still believes there are ogres, Dwarf fighters, and half-orc monks living in his bedroom closet. Rest well Jenn in knowing that he probably still has his lucky dice that he can roll to defeat the critters and defend the neighborhood!<BR/><BR/>Little Known Fact #12 - As a young boy, Rusty was of small stature. Actually, he was downright tiny. Because of this, he acquired the nickname "Beanie Weanie". I'm serious. <BR/><BR/>Little Known fact #13 - Up until high school, Rusty had an uncanny resemblance to Ricky Schroder of the sitcom Silver Spoons. That resemblance faded over time, possibly attributed to the Louisville Slugger incident in fact #10 or long term effects of the exposure to newt and spoiled egg fumes in fact #7.<BR/><BR/>Merry Christmas, bro!D.
