-are convinced old people have no first names and were never young

-blame every single bad thing that happened in your life on the strange lady that lives down the street

-build a happiness machine

(these are all from one book. geuss which one?)

You hear the song "A Taste of Honey," and sing along: "A Sound of Thunder."

-if you name your dog "Dog".

-if butterflies intimidate you.

-if when you're at the beach, you look expectantly for an old man wielding a popsicle stick drawing pictures in the sand.

-if you can be found standing like a fool in the rain, head back, mouth open, tongue out.

-if you refer to tattoos as illustrations.

-if the smell of cinnamon reminds you of Autumn, or vice-versa.

-if you think "L.A. can't be that bad a place."

�You are ushered into a new experience in life...that you will never ever forget or leave....

groon- I love the preheated oven bit.

...you walk through the local library smelling each book, and encourage others to join you...

Grassstains,
-if you name your dog "Dog".
Our family dog is called "Dog," but only because we couldn't all agree on a name.

groon- Well, I guess that verifies it.

And you might want to avoid walking Dog thru the local cemetery....

Have you read EMISSARY?

Yes, I have. And I do miss my old schoolteacher...no just kidding!

Actually, I didn't remember the dog being named Dog in that one. Pretty funny!

...updates on the status of F. Daramont's F451, the movie, are too far and few between

...you anticipate being knocked completely off your feet if Mr. B actually does send this site a note via Sam's username!

...you knew the Zen quote about "just doing" was from the man himself!

...carousels give you the willies.

...you write a poem about your mother-in-law in the hope that see will disappear

...you get extremely nervous when the temperature hits exactly 92 degrees Fahrenheit.
