Stealing a blog idea

2. I firmly believe drinking excessivley in college ruined my typing skills.

3. I did not have my first alcoholic drink util June 2000, I was 20 and 3 months. It was a Zima sans Jolly Rancher.

4. I was born in Allentown, PA. Sacred Heart Hospital to be exact.

5. I lived in Bethlehem, PA for 22 years.

15. I did not get to perform it as some of my classmates didn't like their names were used in the musical.
