About Me:
Let me tell you about the time I had amnesia: I was in high school, and we were rehearsing a play in which I had a minor role. My good friend Bill was one of the stars of the play, and together we came up with a little gag that involved him handing me a briefcase with the word "ANVILS" painted on the side, at which point I would take a well-timed and well-executed comic fall. (Editor's note: An anvil is a large and heavy metal object once used by blacksmiths as a surface for pounding out horseshoes and other pieces of hot, moldable metal...anyone not familiar with one should search Google images or consult any Woody Woodpecker cartoon.) Anyway, Bill neglected to tell me that prior to the start of rehearsal, he had placed a cinder block inside of the briefcase to give it the appearance of more weight. As you can probably guess, when he handed it to me and I went into my well-timed comic fall, I fell a little too hard and conked my skull against the stage floor. I remember saying to myself, "Wow, I hit my head a little harder than usual," and shortly thereafter is a roughly four-hour block of time that I can't account for. Apparently I was lucid and continued with the play rehearsals as I was supposed to, but I kept asking annoying questions to the people around me, including, "Did we have lunch yet?" and "What time are we going to lunch?" as well as "Did I ask you if we went to lunch yet?" Medical professionals I've consulted have assured me that these types of repeated questions about the immediate past are consistent with temporary retrograde amnesia, in which the subject is aware that he can't remember what has happened, becomes concerned, and will thus ask the same series of questions over and over. Apparently, my greatest concern when I can't remember anything is whether or not I've had anything to eat for lunch. (I had. It was a turkey sub from Togo's.)

So good, that when we are at the same film

at my Q&A! This dude is the bomb. And

large, although I did not take a circumfrence
measurement.

poor thing would have a measley 13.
Face it, without me, he's almost
friendless.

sense.
