http://www.faniq.com/profile.php?id=40639TOP 10 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE MELVIS:Yes, it was me who split the atom, invented the X-Ray, the cure for SARS, and the surprise blindfold greeting (... among other things)I sucker-punched Einstein, outsmarted Ali, and out-"Super Freaked" Rick James, bitch!I'm listed in Section 202 of the United Nations Security Act of 1979 as being too hot to wear Wrangler jeans on international airspace. (I'm also illegal in 12 states, including Guam and Puerto Rico.)I may look weird, but I'd kick your ass on Jeopardy! (I'd make you look even worse on Wheel of Fortune.)I am a consumer whore. (and how!)I never learned how to play a good game of jacks. (Will you the be lucky one to teach me?)I was metrosexual back when it was called "being gay". (Rest assured I never lack for masculinity... except when "Spice World" is on cable.)I, too, hate radio stations that play the same 5 songs, 15 times a day, for 3 months. (Man, funk dat!)I'm always willing to talk and kick it with familiar faces or new people from other walks of life. (Variety is the spice of life, n?)I loves me some me.
