I personally would like to bring a tortoise onto the stage, turn it into a racehorse, then into a hat, a song, a dragon and a fountain of water. One can dare anything in the theatre and it is the place where one dares the least. -Ionesco

I was hoping to shoot down at least one of them, but darn it if the guy isn't accurate.

In fact, according to your SM boo, if you are on time you are already late.

My day is made whenever someone (who isn't me) says this. Though I have to say, he won me over, right off the bat, with number 10.

I'm also a huge fan of #1.  I tell my friends all the time that I have no desire to make the plans when it comes to hanging out.  Give me an idea and I'll roll with it.

I love #1. Though I don't think I would take kindly to a paramour using my glow tape to make themselves a tron costume as in reason #8.

Frighteningly, I have actually made a Tron costume for a former significant other.  Glow tape was involved, but there was also a large amount of glow paint used as well...
