(1) Owls have come up alot in my shamanic work. The first time I ever needed a username, Owlet was what popped into my head. The other option was Piglet, but that's much less flattering.

(2) You found me first!

(3) Because you rock.

(4) I am related to Robert E. Lee and am eligible to be in all sorts of froufy groups like the Mayflower Society, the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Daughters of the Confederacy, etc. And some day, I will join them all. I will reach my full potential of pretentiousness.

(5) I have a toe that sticks up and only one fallopian tube.

Phew.

I misread that as "I have a toe that sticks up only one fallopian tube." This caused all kinds of questions and sympathy until I reread it.

Yes, that would be quite uncomfortable.

1. After a literary character whose job I have always wanted: Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock's older brother. His job (http://www.pagebypagebooks.com/Arthur_Conan_Doyle/The_Adventure_of_the_Bruce_Partington_Plans/The_Adventure_of_the_Bruce_Partington_Plans_p2.html) always truck me as a great one to have.
2. Heh. Well, I knew you already, but I probably followed it from an lj of a mutual friend of ours.
3. Because I consider you a friend.
4. I read really fast.
5. I have a very keen sense of smell. I have, in the past, been able to know that people were in a room just before me because I could smell them. (It only works well with people I know really well. When it comes to one of my cousins, who was a frequent playmate when I was a kid, it gets kind of freaky..I can generally smell him coming.)

How did you pick your lj username?
I've been "Scherzo" or some variant since my BBS days, back in high school. When I started on IRC around 1996 or so Scherzo was always taken, so "Scherzoid" was born.

How did you find my lj?
If memory serves, you found mine first. :)

Why do you read my lj?
Because you're cool. :) You're one of those people who I don't know nearly as well as I'd like to, mostly due to the incompatible geography thing.

Interesting fact about yourself?
Bonnie Raitt handed me my college diploma.

Weird fact about yourself?
I've never been bowling. Never.
