I am #18, and you are too.

ETA: D'oh!

Permission to steal your icon?

[matgb]

Absolutely. With credit, of course (I got the image from SJG but it was my first attempt at animation, went OK)

[matgb]

Hah, I just paid a bit more attention to the credits on that page.

sinju.

First person on LJ I added that I hadn't met, she was studying in Japan, her archives from about 2004-2005 are a really good read by themselves. Hasn't posted since, nice to know she's still about.

I believe I'm No.15 but I dispute that I'm Goth at all. Not skinny enough to be a Goth.

[andrewducker]

Making you, surely, a GOUS.

But I don't live in the Fire Swamp!

I am very clearly #20, with the occasional dash of #19. This makes me happy :-)

The "problem" with the lottery is that it's the only chance most people have to make the top prizes sort of money, regardless of the likelihood of actually achieving it.

re: goths. Glad I cut my hair.

Suppose I exhibit traits of #1 and #18 perhaps some of #12 although I still don't think I is goth.
