I punch therefore I am

Pugilist · Oct 2, 2012

Greetings all.

Just introducing myself as a new memeber. I mostly write fantasy, (completed my first novel last year & am writing a second), a lot of fantasy short stories, with the occasional non-fantasy short story sprinkled in.

Small facts about me:
I'm originally from my mother's womb but now reside in the DC area, and for that mom, is very thankful.
I once punched John Gruden, true stroy, hence why he can't smile properly. C'mon have you see this guy smile? Proof positive!
I have scientific proof the Bermuda Triangle is actually a parallelogram.
I've resuscitated a jelly fish.
My inner voice has a Jamaican accent.
The Mayans prophecied my birth.
I've outwrestled a greased Scottsman, (not named Connery).
My mom has a tattoo that reads; "Son."
I make my own yogurt.
I've seen Elvis.
I'm fluent in 9 accents.
Lastly, I'm a lover not a fighter, but I'm also a fighter so don't get any ideas.

Hello there Pugilist, and welcome to AW. Btw, bet I can wrestle you down in one sec - always was a tomboy. About dialects, I can manage three, but speak four official languages.

Not to my recollection, however I have intentionally run over a crack dealer, does that count?

Pug,

Gotta love a guy who has the cahones to punch a nun.

Good for you, but bad for you for missing the "Family Guy" reference.

Sorry, not a fan of Family Guy, nor have I owned a tv for the last 12 years. If it's any consolation the greased Scottsman referance is from an old Simpson's episode, so I guess were both losers?

Hello my fellow pugilist and writer, John L. Sullivan! Why didn't you fight Mr. Johnson?

He wasn't Irish, and therefore beneath me.

If it's any consolation I did fight Johnson & Johnson @ the same time.

You got it!

It was a halloween episode - take off from "The Shining", I believe the episode was called "The Shinning", and Grounds Keeper Willy busts in, rips his shirt off and screams: "There's ner'y a man alive who can out wrestle a greased Scottsman!" Then I think he gets hit in the head with a shovel and dies.
It was a long time ago, so I may have my facts jumbled.

Anyway, thanks for the welcome and the smile you brought to my face.
