I suffer from schizophrenia  
It comes on me in spells  
Sometimes I’m Napoleon Bonaparte  
And sometimes Orson Welles

{And yes, I know it’s Dissociative Personality Disorder or whatever and not schizophrenia, but I didn’t write the song. Don’t know who did, either}

So, who are you today?

I utterly guarantee you guys that, of the people on the SD, my name has appeared in more magazines, newsletters, websites, and journals that anyone else.

I guarantee it.

Sure, you’re not a douchebag, and you’re a she…and a rather cute one (to go by your pics) with a cute name, to boot.

(And no…I’m not hitting on you. I’m ooooold.)

But still, facts is facts. 😃

Dude, the OP is never coming back. And if so, he/she is never going to tell us who he/she is, assuming he/she is actually someone more famous than Lenny/Squiggy.

Hey, Michael McKean (Lenny) is famous enough! I would be happy to talk to him on a message board.

**laina\_f** , working a job at a small company does not exclude one from fame or otherwise being well-known. Joey Buttafuoco was a mechanic…

IANJB…nor anyone notorious.

Sorry- I meant this as playful but I seem to have offended some of you. I apologize.

He does, it’s true. But I have been in (depending on where I’m working) up to 40 pubs a month.

This year alone my name will appear in 18 books and 12 magazines.

No you’re not. If you knew who I was in real life, you’d know the U.N. was looking for me. And they’re not looking to ask me to buy Girl Scout cookies.

Tripler  
Someone else said Adam West. I think you’re really Bob Denver.

Oh **newcrasher** , I didn’t mean it that way at all. ☹ I was just using an example of a “real-life” celebrity…someone who led an average life and job but who still became very well-known. This may or may not apply to you, and certainly does not imply that you are infamous or associating with Long Island Lolitas. 😉
