Because then you'd have half the galaxy after the price on your head and
a very short, 'exciting' life.
Like you said...It would be fun....
Actually, my friends like to repeatedly tell me that my "Agent of Chaos"
moniker is 100% correct....that they just like to hang around with me to
see what will happen next. :)
Hmmmm...Lets see. I visted Yellowstone National Park, and two months later
they had a huge earthquake, I moved to Charleston, South Carolina - and
five months later Hurricane Hugo hit it dead center. I went to the Persian
Gulf - and two weeks after I arrived Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. I
moved to the San Francisco Bay Area a year and half ago. Have I mentioned
the "once a century" flooding near here this year and last year?
LOoks? Hard to say. 185 pounds, six foot one, dark brown eyes, dark brown
hair kept in a 12" ponytail, a large (but oddly almost invisible) scar on
my left cheek. I like to weak black jeans and dark shirts.
Personality - probably Makoto-like.

Damn... You got the Harlock scar :)
As for being in the wrong place.....
at the wrong time....
I missed a Tornado near her about ten years ago by about 5 min....
I convinced my friends we needed to go to Orangeville (where it hit ) to
go to MacDonalds...
The next day (with twisters still in the area) A friend of mine and I
drove by parts of chicken coop, satelite dishes and roofing to do my first
parachute jump.
For some reason electricity seems to like me....
I was always jamming my fingers between plugs when I was a kid with
predictable results...It wasn't that I was doing it on purpose ..Just that
my fingers were small...
I once (and I admit it was stupid really stupid. ) was trying to fix a
loose lightening
rod during the beggining of a storm.....needles to say I got zapped....I
was fine except for the goofy frizzed hair effects....
I once pulled a plug as our house was hit by lightening....ended up on
the other side of the room.
I tried ot recharge a battery (again major stupid thing!!) by using
electrical tape and two wires and an outlest....I was a little cautious
here....I wore rubber boots and gloves, oven mitts , a parka and a ski doo
helmet with visor....
Wow did that thing blow up....!!!!
Also, the morning after I bought this computer there was a thunder storm
at about 5 in the morning...I got up, went downstairs to unplug it before
lightning hit....
Blew the sokets out of the walls (including phone jacks!!) and this
moniter (which was off ) pulsed like a giant flashcube....I could not see
for about 10 min....strangely enough the system was fine excepth for the
mainboard which had a total sudden failure 2 years later.... BoB however
is still fine (the other components ) was fine....I've gradually upgraded
him a in some ways but essentually he is the same....The moniter did this
again when my University residence was hit by lightning....oh, did I
mention I was on the 8th floor when the earthquake hit (Yup...Toronto may
not be in the Ring of Fire but it is on a fault line...)
I admit that some of those things were the result of pure stupidity but
some are odd... we have had 3 light plane crashes (forced landings) on my
parents property in 10 years..... oddness....

Full beautiful, a faery's child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light
And her eyes were wild.
