\*\*\*\*I bet I’m the only person on this board who likes _ **Fellow Travellers** _. A roots-folk-reggae-blues band, they were yanks living in the UK and recording in Germany in the early 90s (only thirty frickin’ years ahead of their time!). Fronted by Jeb Loy Nichols, who’s done some great solo stuff since, but rarely with the energy of that eclectic band. And they had DUBmeister Martin Harrison on bass (and as producer), who added a whole dub sensibility… including following a great tune with an extended dub of it, and a whole dub album. ---

Serving on a jury was near the top of my life’s to do list. Honestly, I was shocked and a bit hurt when I got seated to hear a really interesting case and no one cared. The only thing they wanted to know was why I wasn’t smart enough to get off jury duty. ---

I bet I am the only poster on this board who likes Dschinghis Khan. I don’t just mean I saw the Moskau video and thought it was funny. I have all their songs I could find and listen to them regularly. ---

> [@Asimovian](#): > > I bet I’m the only person on this board who likes the idea of getting to serve on a jury. I served on a federal jury a few years ago. I was excited to get called and loved it. I’d gladly do it again and recommend it to everyone who gets summoned. It actually irritates me when people grump about it. ---

Judging from prior thead-experience, I’m probably the only one on this board who would totally (ahem) embrace the notion of a cuddle party, and would attend with no clandestine agenda. ---

Another salt and vinegar chips lover here. BBQ & Sour Cream and Onion were always the standard chips around here growing up, but salt & vinegar or its rarer cousin dill & vinegar would often make appearances, too, and were well-liked by folks who liked stronger, sharper flavors. Anyhow, off the top of my head, I think I’m the only person on this board who unironically likes _Freddy Got Fingered_. It may have helped that when I first saw it, I had no knowledge whatsoever of Tom Greene’s schtick (hadn’t even heard of him), but I found it quite entertaining for its anarchic, absurdist, gross-out, over-the-top approach. I mean, I actually think there’s a certain genius in that movie. ---

> [@Stink Fish Pot](#): > > I bet I’m the only person who’s performed successful minor surgery on himself with an x-acto knife, hydrogen peroxide, cotton balls, and tweezers. More than once. Well, replace the x-acto knife with a #15 scalpel\*, and I’m there. Once the self-surgery was performed on the back of my neck. - One of the advantages of working in a hospital warehouse is you have the best first aid kit on the block. Scalpels, sutures, lidocaine…🆒 ---

I bet I’m the only one on this board that likes ketchup on my carrots, mustard on doritos, and Julio’s brand chips in my ice cream. I know I’m not the only person that likes them, 2 out of 3 were suggested by a friend. But I bet there’s no one else on this board.
