I thought it would be fun to share some random, but (somewhat)
interesting, facts about myself...
* I spent a summer in Yellowstone National Park babysitting drunk 40 year-olds.

* I am the "world's meanest, evilest" babysitter.
* I occasionally get in the mood for a drive and purposely get lost to explore new routes home.
* I have performed in eight countries on three continents, and for audiences as large as 4200 people, including Mikhail Gorbachev, Colin Powell, and Lech Walesa.
* I can't curl my tongue.
