I was the classic double-knit nerd

Come again? Do you mean polyester? Or am I too young for this reference?

(Sorry, I can't resist tacking that last one on.)

76) I am very good at thinking up, and starting, cool and ambitious projects. I'm not nearly as good at finishing them.

Me, too.

81) On the Myers-Briggs test, I am an INTJ, specifically the subtype that analyzes themselves and reshapes their own surface personality to be what they would like to be. So is Tibicen. Characteristically, she and I have spent a fair amount of time talking about that.

*giggle* (But I really should get around to reading that book ... )

89) I adore the taste of scotch, but it screws up my sleep pattern totally. So I have a number of bottles, which I am spending years slowly drinking my way through.

I have one bottle of scotch. It's a $45 bottle of MacAllen's (I think). I walked into the liquor store and said, "I appear to only like expensive scotch. Please find me your most expensive bottle that's less than $50." And this is what I got. I don't drink it very often, either.

I have a horrible memory, and no head trauma history (that I recall). The only thing that's interesting about my horrible memory is that I can walk down the street of my old hometown (from ages 0 to 12) and name the people I used to know. This is despite huge physical differences (due to puberty, etc.) that happened after I moved away. I just really loved my old town and apparently preserved lots of people in my memory. This ability has also extended to people I met after my 13th birthday, but it's still pretty amazing to me when I can look at someone's face and recognize them, often name them and tell them where we met.

Thanks, Justin. I don't think I knew more than 5 of these facts, previous to you being on livejournal. :) I see this as a triumph of the medium.
