As previously advertised, here are the 25 Random Lies About Me, presented as a serial.
1. Because I’m not good at physics, I’ve never built a time machine. My friend Phil Harrington built one on a whim one weekend in college.
After drinking too much I decided to try it out. As per the cliché, I thought I’d go back to kill Hitler.
I decided to go back to when he was a sixth grader, not because I like killing kids, but because that year he happened to be in the same school as the future great philosopher Wittgenstein, and I thought I could have a talk with him after offing the future dictator.
Unfortunately, I forgot that time machines do not also move a person through space, so I spent a cold night in Spokane in the year 1911, then came back to the present and slept it off.

Is one of the lies that there were going to be 25?
Well, my first "25 Random Things About Me" was that I enjoy writing fiction, which is true, so I will have to come up with another lie, but I have some time, since I'm going to put one of these up daily. We'll see how many days of rest I inadvertently take in the process.
