Maj (maj@pigdog.org) also has some comments on this story:
The most interesting section of his web site is "What's wrong with me."
SO WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?
1) I bite my nails (working on it).
2) I want to help others sometimes -- even when they don't want my advice.
3) I could lose about 20 lbs to be in very good shape (Working on it. I was a stress eater).
4) I need to learn to relax more often.
5) I could always be a become a better listener.
To which Maj added these...
6) I tend to lash out violently when I don't get what I want immediately.
7) Crack habit (I'm working on that too).
8) I hate bathing.
