    Well, I hear quite a few in court, but otherwise no, so I'll say false.

    TNP has defended himself or herself in court.

    True, but only for minor traffic offenses.

    Nope. Like most lawyers, I will bear almost any indignity rather than sue anybody myself.

    TNP feels that the number of computers they have in the house has started to become just a little bizarre.

    False at present, but we're getting there: laptops for artifex and me, a netbook for the kidlet, and an ancient desktop that rarely gets booted up but is kept around because it has so much stuff on it.


    TNP once owned a pager.

    False, at least in most situations; I'm not tap water averse or particularly germophobic, so the water fountains at my office and the glassware in my home are adequate to my needs.

    As kids playing around, true. Professionally or for money, false.

    TNP has won money in a casino

    True, in terms of single discrete events consisting of me collecting money from a machine or a hand of cards at a table. I've never "won money at a casino" in the sense of walking out the door ahead of the house.

    True, but barely. Many years of lessons, and very little of it stuck.

    (A favorite fun fact: James A. Garfield was both multilingual and ambidextrous, and could write Latin and Greek simultaneously).

    TNP has visited Garfield's tomb at Lake View Cemetery in Cleveland, Ohio: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_A._Garfield_Memorial

    False. Isn't it interesting how the most empirically intelligent men to serve as President have often been the more unremarkable ones in the discharge of that office?


    TNP has been to Arlington Cemetery and seen the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

    True, three times that I recall. And all three of the Arlington soldiers had the first name "William."

    TNP knows at least three Williams.

    True; I worked in the indoor garden department of the Home Depot for a couple of years. In receiving a truckload of cacti, as we did every few weeks, a couple of bleeding puncture wounds was par for the course. Honestly, roses were worse.


    TNP has a song currently stuck in his or her head.

    False. 1992 wasn't all that great a year for music IMHO, and I like a lot of contemporary music.

    TNP voted in the 1992 U.S. presidential election.

    True, but I wish I didn't. Oral surgery becomes logistically complicated when you're single and not living near any family.

    TNP hates going to the dentist.

    Both True and False. The dentist is great, but the journey there is far too time consuming. His practice is quite a distance away.

    TNP is scared of being injected.

    Very, very rarely. My mom told me always to taste it first, and I almost always do. For that matter, it's rare that I add salt even after tasting.

    Vastly, and it has been so ever since I was a kid. Never had much of a sweet tooth. My parents thought I was weird for eschewing syrup on my pancakes; I'd just butter them, fold them in half like a taco, and have at them with my hands. (At home only!)
