Sooo...the mighty gumshoe board feels a bit slow today. *Bob the Builder voice* Can we fix it? Yes we can!

Got a skeleton pounding on your closet? A secret in the attic? A monkey (no, not precious Bobo...and not the raging back hair you try to pass off as a Bonobo backpack either) on your back?

Let it all out, boo.

K, I'll start with a few (true) examples.

When I was 16, I robbed the house belonging to to heir of a pickle dynasty.

I used to steal Volkswagen signs to be more like one of the Beastie Boys.

I have bought more than one kind of deodorant in the same day, on the advice of a friend.

I salivate a little whenever I walk by a hot dog vendor.

I totally car-megeddoned a pigeon last month.

Sometimes, I find Bob Sagat funny.

I'm Canadian and I really don't care about hockey.

Plus, I covet my neighbor's ox every day.

Speak!!!

Right now, I am what I seldom is...I 'have sooo many mistakes in my typing, but I am trying to correct them.... It is hard for a reason that I'm not used to...When i awake after going to sleep, I will know why I seldom do what I 'm doing. I'm not doing it now but I did it tonight. I doubt I will do it again, atleast not any time soon.

Is it a riddle? Does it involve margharitas?

I leave socks in strange places around the house.
I know all the words to 'Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat'

Cordelia Falco is not the only one that knows all the words to 'Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.' I played a kid in the the local theater producton and I had to sit through the whole thing over and over and over again.

Also I am from Alabama but I don't have an accsent.
I am not a good speller.

Ugh, thanks for the memory-jog you two...when I was 7, I was jealous I didn't get the lead in my school's production of 'Little Orphan Annie'.

Yeah, it's a hard-knock life...

I like black and white movies better than color ones (ooOOOHHHHH, creepy)

Sometimes I skip out on homework to watch movies

I know the Brady Bunch theme song in its entirety (even scarier)

I married the guy who asked me out at the drive thru speaker at Taco Bell when I worked there.

I like the Backstreet Boys

I detest certain family members.

I actually like watching America's Funniest Video Re-runs with Bob Saget

I've peed in the woods.

LOL to all of these, and Mama thats probably the best how I met my hubby story ever!

Crunch this ones for you: I was in drama in junior high, and sucked so bad I was in the "chorus" section of everything. We once redid a modern day retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and the Baby Bear got the chicken pox, so I got my big debut :) (yes I was awful, yes I tripped once going out on stage, and yes, there is an incriminating video floating around somewhere)

I once split the crotch of my jeans hopping onto a stage while someone was singing karaoke. Didn't clear the lip of the stage, slammed hard on my knee, skipped the CD, and generally looked like a boob in the process.

Yes folks, the rock star life is harder than it looks.

It's very funny when friends fall down :) I know this because I once found the presence of mind to twist in midair and grab the nearby diving board, resulting in a very long 8 seconds of awkward bouncing up and down, after fase starting in a high school swim meet.

Yeah...judging by the laughter, I had a lot of friends in the audience that time...as if the powder-blue speedo wasn't humiliating enough!
