Inspired by: [Fictional characters you have encountered](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=409192) For better or worse I’m probably most similar to **George Costanza** , although I look more like Jerry. ---

A friend of mine thinks that I could be Tulip from the Preacher comic. I was raised by a single father in a household with lots of guns and I was taught how to use them. Sadly, I don’t have her killer body, but at one time I was a fairly good shot. 🙂 ---
