Here's the weird thing - in person, he is the most grounded, common-sense person you'll ever find. Extremely likeable, but you'd never expect insanity like that unless you've known him as a good friend for 5 years.

I confess, I've thought about doing #5 several times. Both writing the essay AND throwing the book.

Never thought of doing #10. Hmmm... Maybe I'll do my Jane Eyre book report to the tune of "Dixie."

Oh, good, he can keep you from blowing anything up.

I once sang my research material to my sister until she told me shut up, I was scaring the cat.

Well, I don't get to hang out with him that often, and the rest of my friends are equal or above me in their degree of insanity/pyromania/love of big booms. Once, a friend and I strapped the engine of a model rocket to the top of a toy truck. It ripped the top off and nearly hit us in the face. So you know what we did? Did it again and recorded it.

You didn't.

Is that on YouTube?

Was it one of those little matchbox trucks, or a bigger one?

No, it's not on YouTube. If we ever get a new video camera, though, I'll create an account and do it again.

And yes, it was a good deal bigger than a matchbox truck.

Oh, and please don't hate Andrew after I tell you this: He doesn't like his chickens.

Darn.

Gasp!! He just got slightly less awesome. But I can't bring myself to hate him.
