Unique Things I've Done Meme

Rules:
Post 3 things you've done that you believe nobody else on your F-list has done.
Indulge in remorse if someone calls you out on a listed item.

1) Shot Gary Numan. Admittedly it was with a laser-pistol, but frankly that just makes it _more_ futuristic. (Charity game of Laser Tag I was helping organise).

2) Worked in the IT department at Sandhurst, helping high-up Army people get their computers running. Admittedly only for four weeks, but I did rather enjoy it.

3) Sat on a shark. Only a little one (about a foot long), and it was by accident, as it swum under me while I was kneeling down on a deep dive in Cyprus. Still - gave me a heck of a shock!

I imagine the shark was quite startled, too.

[opusfluke.livejournal.com]

But not as startles as Gary Numan?

[thadrin.livejournal.com]

What if he shot Gary Numan while riding a Shark? or is that taking things too far?

[davidcook.livejournal.com]

... or combine 1 and 3 and get a shark with a frickin' laser-beam on its head.

[pennski.livejournal.com]

No, no, surely he must shoot Gary Numan while jumping the shark. I believe it's traditional.

Why do I have a weakness for certain memes?

[andrewducker]

It's probably genetic.

Maybe it's a Memetic Disorder

[andrewducker]

There are 435 pages there. Want to link to any particular one???

[kurosau.livejournal.com]

Oh, sorry. I was linking to the whole story. Memetic disorder plays a big part in it, but it's a really awesome sci-fi comic. It's also done and complete, if'n you want to read it.

A couple of work colleagues have done a moderate amount of IT-related consultancy for the Army (and other armed forces). Best was a colleague who told them that their main problem was that they were working in silos.

(Sadly I think it's only the Yanks who have literal silos to work in.)

I would propagate this survey but have done nothing unique.

not even having that sentiment. :(
