I wear a leather jacket, and no one knows that I bought it at Goodie’s. I have a pathetic little goatee. I can solve a Rubik’s Cube in under a minute. I once high-fived Michael Vick at quiz bowl summer camp. (Honest to God) I am the very model of a modern major general I’ve hit a hole-in-one on a “real” golf course. All of the above are true. Can I be in your club??? ---

My husband thinks I’m cool because I’m perfectly OK with him playing video games all day. Even the violent ones. As long as I can periodically completely interrupt him so he can tell me what happened in the plot over the past 18 hours… ! ---

One of my nicknames in High School was “Mister Cool”. Does that count? ---

Okay…go! I’ve met tons of celebrties. My Mom grew up with Bill Murray. My Dad went to prep school with Rick Flair. The wrestler. I was the drummer in a band that sold several thousand CD’s in our state. We sold at least a thousand more out of state. I have more, but it’s not pertinent. ---

I learned a swagger from being in a band. It has helped me greatlty. I can walk into a bar that’s three hours away, and still own it. I’m hip. ---
