Yeah...I refrained from picking a power like Mental Domination. lord knows I'd have to use it to fend off the cops since I'd spend all of my time seducing unsuspecting young women. I'd be a danger to all colleges (and, unfortunately, many high schools). Good thing I have high morals and low mutation.
 
SolidMan says that his ideal job would be movie director. One of my ideal jobs would be writing screenplays for major motion pictures. Maybe we should form our own company.

Don't worry, I have a martial arts contact or 20 to go to if I ever get big enough. Being a martial artist, you just pick up all sorts of these connections. I even know a world class opera singer/dancer that did karate for 6 years. Martial artists are everywhere.:erg:
 
Hehe, I know...I was just kidding since we're on a martial arts website. I like to joke about the obvious. I'm sure everyone on here has dozens of contacts. :)

After being married for 9 years, the last thing I want right now is a long-term relationship. I guess it would be different if I was in a better marriage. ... Monica Belluci, huh? Aah, Persephone from The Matrix: Reloaded. Can't see choosing Trinity over her..at least not on looks.

hmm, yeah. I should do that, definitely. My wife swears it's easy or, as she puts it, "Just lie back and you'll float." ... Not true. I sink like a brick. Maybe it's my 10% body mass index or something.

Maynard James Keenan said:
One great big festering neon distraction,

Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.
